Hi all,
Forgive this long diatribe, a bit off-topic I know, but it might
stimulate a good discussion...
I have built a few small apps in PHP before and, whilst they work, I
can't but help feeling that I go about the whole thing the WRONG way...
I am not a professional software person (far from it) but I am
reasonably competent in most things "technical". I trained in
Electronics, build my own PCs and Linux systems from scratch, have used
- just for fun - Java, Delphi, Visual Basic, PHP and a little C/C++.
I am now wanting to write my own application (using PHP of course) to do
something "really useful". And I am looking for some recommendations on
reading [books or links] about "how to design" my application and how to
think about the design in it's abstract form before I start writing
code.
Normally I end up writing little bits of code to solve small problems
and then sort of kludging them together to do something useful.
I would really like to try and go about this one the RIGHT way.
Thanks in advance.
Al
