A few weeks ago, ImpressCMS was included to Microsoft Web App Gallery. This was a great news for the project as it can now be downloaded and installed automatically with only a few clicks on a Windows Server.

Back in May of this year, Marc-André attended Make Web Not War, Canada’s first cross-plateform web conference showcasing the latest techniques and technologies available to the ever-evolving web community. During that conference, Marc-André explained how ImpressCMS came to be included in Microsoft Web App Gallery (also called Web PI).

In the last few months, we have created four video tutorials related to the ImpressCMS Persistable Framework. The IPF is a native part of ImpressCMS since version 1.1. It allows rapid development of ImpressCMS modules, by taking care of 80% of what is needed when creating new modules or new functionalities: adding, editing, deleting, listing, sorting, filtering objects, and much more.

In addition, the imBuilding module, using all the benefits of the ImpressCMS Persistable Framework,  allows you to easily create modules in a few minute. You simply define what kind of module you want, what objects you wish to manage, what are the fields of these objects, and imBuilding will create all the files you need to install your new module in matter of seconds. You will then have a fully working module which you can start to use and improve.
