PyAAC.
Revolution or stupidity?
Revolution or stupidity?
The last time I was working with web development I was following the new standards, anyone knows that PHP is decrapted and we shouldn't use it - but people do not bother to change it to something new because it requires work. Today there are two frameworks being used, Django written in Python and Ruby on Rails written in Ruby, they are the best and most used frameworks available today! These two standards comes with incredible speed and reliability for web appliciations.
I personally checked the two framworks and I have to admit that both of them are really good, Ruby allows you to replace longer code with two lines because of the implemented methods, Python got similiar syntax to Ruby but it lack some features. However, Python is actually faster than Ruby.
I'm writing this thread because I've noticed a lot of glitches, holes and bugs in general in the AAC's available because of the decprated PHP. I think that it's time to change it because OpenTibia should follow the new trends, as other communities does. I want to create a brand-new AAC based on Django, I've picked this framework because it's faster than Ruby on Rails. Maybe I will migrate from Django to Ruby on Rails, when/if the standard will improve and eventually be the first choice, but for now I will use Django. I'm a somewhat busy person and I always got things on my todo list, but I can ensure you that I will do my best to finish this project ASAP. I'm currently planing the development steps of the AAC, the plan is to write the AAC for the latest trunk(which hopefully will force people into updating their clients aswell server engine, which MIGHT result in a better community!). I will try to make the AAC somewhat similar to GesiorAAC, ZnoteAAC and the rest of the AAC currently available - but my top priority will be on security, stability and speed(simply because it's how you create a good web application).
I have no decided whether I'm going to release it for free or let you pay a small fee for using it every month, though I really think that you all can pay a small amount for an AAC that will be used as your website and money source.
I'm looking forward to get constructive criticism and your opinions, please do not leave without commenting!
