Aspen 1.0.1 Released
Aspen 1.0.1 fixes several bugs that we’ve identified since the last release and introduces some improvements to the version comparison feature used for install/upgrade methods. We encourage everyone to upgrade and to check out the revision compatibility notes to be aware of any changes that may impact applications.
We’ve moved Aspen source control over to git and have updated how we handle internal version numbers slightly. At this time, this should not impact anyone as we’re the only ones with nightly builds, but for more information, read the compatibility notes linked to above.
Feedback and questions should be posted in the google group. Thank you!
Announcing Aspen Framework 1.0
We are pleased to announce the first public version of the Aspen framework - a modular php framework for websites and web-based applications.
Aspen was designed to eliminate the routine and tedious work when building a web application. Well-known features from other frameworks - database abstraction, caching, validating, url handling, and scaffolding - are simply the beginning. Aspen goes above and beyond expectations with built-in features like powerful html filtering, strong security measurements, easy mysql query generation, system and error logging, language file support, user authentication, form handling, customizable installation/upgrade process, and more!
Aspen is extremely flexible and customizable so that it fits anything from a simple dynamic website to a redistributable web-based application, and it has been used in all of those scenarios by the development team behind it. It’s even easy to include the entire framework and libraries in existing pages, without porting everything over.
Go ahead and get started by downloading Aspen, and then head over to our documentation to read the introduction tutorial. Any and all discussion (comments, troubleshooting, issues) should be submitted to our Google discussion group.
Introduction to Aspen Framework
Come by Cubespace on March 10 for an introduction to the Aspen framework. We’ll be giving a demonstration and answering questions starting at 6:30.
Aspen 1.0 Release Candidate 2
We’ve had some time to work out a few remaining issues from the first release candidate, and today we’re releasing the second release candidate of the Aspen framework. We feel that this release is stable enough for the final 1.0.0 launch and we’re ready to begin testing to be sure. Go ahead and download the framework and let us know how it works for you.
We have not written any release notes since we’ve not yet had any stable products, but you may want to read the Compatibility documentation. We also offer support through the aspen-framework google group.
