This page was formerly the main contents listing for developer resources. Rather than list content in two locations, developer reference content has been folded into the
Sueetie Features Index. Developer reference content is generally described as a "Patterns and Origins" Document. "Patterns" covers the patterns of code found in Sueetie framework classes. "Origins" pertains to the Open Source references of those patterns for code.
Sueetie Patterns
The real stars of Sueetie are the Open Source applications that comprise it: ScrewTurn Wiki, YetAnotherForum.NET, BlogEngine.NET and Gallery Server Pro. Each of those applications serves as a rich target environment of original source code to fuel rapid development of the Sueetie Framework. The more we base Sueetie coding patterns on member application source the more competent we become both in Sueetie framework development and in the application as well. Double Bonus!
Sueetie Origins
The 5th item of the
Sueetie Manifesto states,
"Sueetie developers write original code or leverage code from Open Source resources. Sueetie developers never use code from source-available commercial .NET products in Sueetie communities." Commercial .NET products have every right to protect their intellectual property, and Sueetie developers fully honor that principle. Yet in honoring that principle with every line of Sueetie code written, there are basic coding patterns and methodologies common to all applications, Open Source or Proprietary. By documenting the Open Source origination of Sueetie Framework source code, no commercial entity can question the integrity of Sueetie or conclude that their End User License Agreement has been violated simply because Sueetie shares well-established and universal coding patterns and methodologies.
