Personal project
I have recently started working on a personal project just for fun. It is based on Twitter API also using Twitter OAuth. I want to use FOSS as much as possible and use ASP.Net MVC as I have been working with ASP.Net/C# for last 5 years after completing graduate school and used it in school as well for a few projects. Also decided on SubSonic for data access as I love active record and have some familiarity with it after using it in a few POCs. I also decided to use JQuery for client side scripting because of its awesomeness and familiarity reasons. I will be using OAuth instead of basic twitter authentication as with oauth users go to twitter’s site for authenticating, so it looks more trustable to users and also if I host this app on a shared host, I dont need to worry about storing users password securely.
Following is the final set tools I have decide to use -
- ASP.Net MVC 1.0 for web layer MVC framework
- JQuery for client side scripting
- SubSonic 3.0 for data access
- TweetSharp Twitter API framework for .Net
- MySQL database
