Introducing: The XP Framework

Well, I think it's about time to talk a little bit about the stuff I use... Part I: The XP- Framework.

First of all, what is the XP Framework:

From XP-Framework.net:

"The XP Framework offers consistent, multi-purpose, object oriented, production-tested collection of classes, APIs for app server connectivity, web services, dynamic web sites, date access and manipulation, logging, collections, I/O, databases, O/R mapping, XML, unittesting, and much more. "

And from Planet-XP:

"XP technology is a rapid development environment. It will run anywhere PHP runs, Windows, Linux, Unix, MacOS, on your desktop PC, on your enterprise application cluster and on your hoster's webserver. "

Now, this does sound like "marketingspeak", but trust me on this: It's from a techie, and since I know the developers in person, I can tell you that you can trust their word.

The Framework is licensed under a BSD- License, so you're pretty free in what you actually want to do with it, something I think should be considered when choosing a framework.

This thing utilizes some quite advanced programing topics, so you should know what you are doing.

A tutorial on how to install the framework and setting up a development environment will follow soon.
