bartsitekcomon Testing made easier in Internet Explorer

Personally I like the IETester: http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage

Unfortunately, it runs just under Windows.

Both actually (HTML + images). It's strictly for front-side templates you'd show to your client for approval at an early stage. The next step would be adding some logic to them.

Server side language thing doesn't have anything to do with templates. It just means you can use this tool in any environment you'd like (it's not coded in any particular language like PHP, ROR, .NET).

The thing is, it's a very early stage and you don't have any app yet, so there's nothing to show. It's for when you're in early designing stage and you need to present some app templates to your clients for approval. Screencasts, sending PDFs by email - that's all too much hassle. Projector enables you to present HTML templates you designed in a simple yet interactive way.

Sorry if that doesn't seem to be clear enough! Good questions, I'll update the Guide soon.

- So you put all the page names inside the /project.md file. Now, according to what you just put in there, you upload your page templates/projects to 'project/' directory (each page being a separate directory that matches one on the list created inside /project.md). `Ready` status is simply when page directory exists, and `In progress` when it's only listed inside the /project.md file but is not yet created.

- This one is super simple. Just upload the projector directory to your server and rename it as you wish eg. domain.com/clients/sony/ ('sony' being your projector folder) and access that url.

Wow, that's a pretty sweet list right there. Thanks!

Weird, worked for me last night. Tested on Chrome/Win7.

Good find! But I don't mind renaming it to 'tripping-ninja' if needed to be honest ;)

My pleasure, enjoy it!

Right, also ETA would be useful. But wanted to keep it simple at first to see how it goes. Also, feel free to just fork it on GitHub and modify any way you'd like ;)

Right! I noticed that too. You can "fix" it by applying a 1px text-shadow on the text, but it will look a little bit 3D-ish that way.

Thanks! Never been any good at copyrighting. Maybe that's because English isn't my native language. Your tagline sounds nice, although I wanted to keep it a little bit on a "technical-funny" side, so that's partly on purpose.

Well yeah, this is for simpler projects for when you're designing/developing something that has few pages and need a quick way to present it to your client (something better than generic file listing on Apache).

Thanks for your comment!

Thanks, glad you like it! Simplicity is the goal here.

bartsitekcomon How Sacha Greif and Nathan Barry sold $39k worth of eBooks

Nathan, you should probably think of removing part of the description from your Gumroad page, as just about anyone can easily grab the zip file without paying for it.
