Open Source Development Tools
From Newscloud
Here are some recommended tools we use in our own development:
- Eclipse, an open source, multi-platform editor.
- Navicat, (not free) but a good multi-platform database management console for MySQL. We've had problems with the Mac version but it's generally okay.
- PHPMyAdmin is an open source, Web-based database management console alternative to Navicat. We just prefer Navicat because using an application is faster and more secure for us.
- CVS Tutorial We use CVS for source code management. We've found the RedBean support site to provide the clearest, simplest examples.
- SourceForge Free, project hosting site for the open source community.
- Browser archive: Download any browser for compatibility testing here.
