New website using Catalyst

[Evaldas Imbrasas]

Hi,

I would like to annouce the launch of a new website using Catalyst
(along with DBIC and Template Toolkit):

EVO: eco-friendly products, services, and information
http://www.evo.com/

Big thanks to Catalyst developers for providing such a great framework
that made the development process so much more efficient and fun.

Please feel free to add our website to the growing list of websites
using Catalyst at http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ .

Looks like a cool site.  I added it to
http://dev.catalystframework.org/wiki/LiveApplications

This looks great.  Would you care to share any more info about the
implementation?  Are you using FormBuilder or Imager, for example?  I
see you're using YUI.  How did you find it?  I'm using it on a couple
of upcoming projects.

By the way: Why isn't vox.com included on the list? Would be a cool reference.
Or is there an approval by SixApart needed?

This is a really slick looking site. I'd also be interested in how you implemented forms.

On the subject of the live applications wiki page, could you also add http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk ? It's already on here: http://dev.catalystframework.org/

Thanks.

We use C::P::HTML::Widget for forms. Its integration with
Catalyst/DBIC saved a great deal of time and effort, especially on the
admin part of the application. HTML::FormFu seems to be the new player
on the block, but it wasn't ready for the primetime yet when we
started developing our app. We deal with images using
C::P::Upload::Image::Magick.

I really like YUI. JQuery was my original choice for a JavaScript
framework, but I was quickly turned off by its 'hacky' nature,
disorganized docs, and plugins that were rather buggy and not well
documented. YUI is much more consistent, it has graded browser
support, and excellent docs. Also, the code written using YUI seems to
be much more maintainable, especially if you adopt the 'Module
Pattern': http://yuiblog.com/blog/2007/06/12/module-pattern/

It is nice. I'm interested in how you did your "sharing" stuff. The  
"digg this," stumbled it," etc. Was it Perl-centric, CPAN, straight  
cut and paste XHTML, or something from the YUI stuff? If you can,  
please share.

Hi,
It's a very attractive site! Wonderful. What things did you use YUI for?

Those are just straight up Javascript links, no magic involved.

The frontend of the 'Green Your Tree' application is written using
YUI. It's also used for handling Ajax and DIV windows throughout the
website, as well as in the admin interface for rich text editing.

Thanks again to everyone who provided the positive feedback on and off the list.
