Project: Portfolio CMS

01.20.2010 by Stephanie

I’ve been out of tune with PHP, I realize. Can’t be blamed. I have a job that isn’t programming related, and most days, I’m too busy to really look into the new things dealing with PHP. However, currently, I’m rebuilding my portfolio. At first, the idea was, get the static site up and then slowly making it dynamic later. However, while I got the foundation all built, I realized that a lot of the pages I want would be redundant to build. With the time I put into building every page, I could whip out a Portfolio CMS.

Basic functions I’m looking into:

  • Drag and drop reordering of projects
  • Automatically insert image height and width in html
  • Ability to upload images (maybe) – since it’s personal use, I almost always prefer FTP

I’m used to procedural programming but this time around, I’m going the object-oriented method which is taking more time because I want to do it right. I must say, after a few tutorials on the concept of OOP, I can see why some would prefer this method. It’s less messy and more organized. I find that I can read my PHP a lot more now than before.
