Welcome to Rez72
About the Rez72.net Site
Our site is intended to be informative. This site also functions as a range of demonstration projects regarding the fundamental skills and best practices of contemporary web development, and of the latest internet technologies in general. This list of current technologies is many, varied, and ongoing, including WordPress & custom themes and plugins, jQuery, social media, streaming data feeds, RSS aggregation, e-commerce solutions and custom APIs as PHP and MySQL, to name only a few elements in our developer’s toolbox. We support the Open Source community and the many initiatives contained therein.
The Rez72 RSS Reader API
Our RSS reader is a simple Ajax-based API providing basic aggregator functionality for retrieving then presenting to layout Really Simple Syndication feeds.
The application is presented as a case study in crafting responsive web applications with essential AJAX components, utilizing the hypertext preprocessor, PHP v5, and an instance of an XSLT processor. This to transform the XML-based feeds on the basis of style sheets in the form XSL. The feeds themselves have been selected to help keep us abreast of important ongoing issues and changes within the development community.
The Client File(s) Upload/Download API
This application is a simple utility as portal, designed for two-way access to important files and information integral to effective developer-client communication. We get immediate access to important references and data sources necessary to the requirements gathering stage of development, for example. Our clients have an opportunity to download completed projects, or submit re-worked design and programming ideas. This is a key interface for remote contributors during a project lifetime.
The Rez72 WP Blog
Based on WordPress, our web log serves as another demonstration piece. As such, most of the articles and comments are generated by staff, on topics of some concern to the greater community of developers, with an occasional rant regarding persisting personal peeves…. All in good taste, mind you. Please, feel free to register and jump into the verbal fray.
We have launched a new series of plugins for WordPress. The Avocado series of plugins is our answer to a perceived need for greater functionality and simplified stylistic control of output when developing WordPress applications. There are five plugins to date, with more in development.
