Looks cool. I have so many internal scripts that need a face/UI.


Give it a try! You can copy those scripts as-is into the workspace directory and with a few lines of code turn them into web apps.

This is a great read. With 20+ years of experience in the industry (various capacities in software development, content marketing, SEO), I am all for the concept of continuous learning. However, we have to establish a foundation first and then start the explorations. That foundation would be there to keep our sanity intact while in pursuit of the next shiny object.

Personally, I have been rooted to Python since last 6 years, while exploring the wonderful world of JavaScript.


I have multiple books in my reading stack, picking up depending on the mood: - Fentanyl, Inc by Ben Westhoff - Arabs in Medieval Sindh by Rafi Samad - Rework by Jason Fried (re-reading it)

I started my career with FoxPro for DOS, dabbled a bit with Visual FoxPro and then I found Visual Basic. Spent a lot of fun years with it before moving to ASP and web development in general. Not exactly sure what was the reason for its demise. I guess .NET killed it.
