WebBuild descriptions WebBuild 1. 1
WebBuild is a simple Java application to support the maintenance of websites. It s aim is to separate the tasks of providing the content from the site design . Separating the content provision from the site design has the following advantages: - Content provision is much simplified - Content providers do not change the site design - either accidently or deliberatly. - Site designers can be confident of the permissable elements within the content - Site design can be done once & left. - All pages across the site have a consistent look & feel - A change to the site design will perculate to all pages with ease Content is so simple the only tool you need to create it is a text editor. The navigation structure for the site is derived from the filenames of the text files & the names of the folders that contain them. Re-structuring the site navigation is as simple as moving & re-naming folders & files.
