- The eSite project has been restarted with new goals and aims. This is a birthday present to myself. The new eSite project is developing a PHP-based parser that generates static documents that could be used as the basis for dynamic websites developed using PHP. The new eSite is an outgrowth of cleaning up the scattered and increasingly complex set of templates, PHP scripts, shell scripts, and Makefiles that I developed to maintain my personnal website, the maintenance and development of which are partially automated, while it is completely static on the server. As the scripts grew more complex, I realized that others might encounter the same problems I did, and so decided to rewrite the scripts into a simpler package and share it.
Goals
- Provide an easy-to-use parser for files that uses PHP language constructs in an XML and PHP compliant manner.
