A while ago I wrote that I was working on certain projects that where of the development variety. I am now pleased to say that one of them is finally complete and the other one is, well, not so complete. Let’s skip over that small detail and focus on the subject at hand. The completed project is called ‘Prompt Me’; and it has a very simple goal; that is to select and display a random writing prompt (that I have wrote) from the database and display on screen. Which by all accounts it does (though there are only about 20 prompts at the moment).
The technical stuff
I wrote The application with the use of the codeigniter PHP library that made development of it much easier. The front was very easy to implement and went as smoothly as it possibly could. The back end, on the other hand, went a little less smoothly; I’ll spare you the details but will say this I now fully appreciate how much hard work goes into creating any bespoke application.
I would like to apologise for the absolutely, positively disgusting design. I will – one day – redesign it but for now, at least it looks better than most of the other applications of the same nature.
Now, why not check out Prompt Me
Looks pretty cool. Maybe something so others can add their prompts as well? Sounds like a good idea to get the creative juices flowing.
Yeah, I am planning on adding that capability sometime. Until then if anyone wants to have there own prompts added then they can leave a comment here and I will add it manually.
