Alternative title: How does discord work?
While I was making my website, I noticed it looks more like an application that could be downloadable. So I thought, what if I do exactly that? However, I have no idea how.
For example, take something like a discord. This is (I at least think) a Web integrated into a client application.
So is there a way to take my website, and not as easy as possible make a windows application from it? And how does the discord client work (the PC one)?
EDIT: My website uses php
So yes, I found an answer if anyone ever asks the same question as me.
It is done via the Electron framework. I don't understand it that much to talk about it more.
So the answer is: Electron framework
My team have been battling to make react native play nicely with socket.io for 2 days now, without success. Is anyone currently using the most recent version of react native successfully with socket.io, or is the technology just not ready for commercial environments?
According to the answers to this question, there at least used to be a way to do use socket.io with RN. If that's indeed the case, I'd suggest opening an issue in the github repository, it might be a rather easy fix. I'd also making sure there are no existing issues related to what you're asking about before submitting an issue.
Good luck!
Hi there? Please give me a website where I could study VB6.0, I want gradual steps of DatabaseConnection tutorial, like for instance is using ADODB or DataControl. Thanks! I need simple program [Search,DataEntry,Delete,Edit,View]...
I used to use this site a while ago - found it quite useful and there is a database guide with it aswell
http://www.vb6.us
http://www.vb6.us/guides/vb6-database-guide
Used this site briefly when I had to get back in the VB6 swing of things:
http://www.vbtutor.net/vb6/vbtutor.html
They also have a fairly robust database guide.
I am trying to find the best way to maintain a bug tracker and feature/upgrade requests for clients on web development projects. Ideally it would be an open source system we can have installed on a sub domain of our site.
This will then allow each client to login and add bugs/features/upgrade which we can hopefully keep track of.
I have been trying to use and implement trac but it just feels too "techy" and a little too complex for setup.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Shadi
UPDATE
Just to clarify, we do want a system to install on our servers, the trouble with trac is the install process in relation to what you get and how clients feel about it is a little poor. But if something is awesome but has a complex setup, that isn't a problem...
Mantis is another. Simple UI.

If you have Linux boxes, trac is much easier to install. Config takes a bit, but wasn't a problem in my experience.
I've heard good things about FogBugz. :)
If you don't want to install it yourself they have a hosted solution also.
Have you taken a look a Bugzilla? Not sure if it meets all your needs but it is free but you can get paid support. It's an open source project AFAIK.
And/or: do I need one?
I've recently started using FogBugz for my hobby projects, and I'm very happy with things so far. Having read more about it, especially the evidence-based scheduling, I'd like to start using it for my PhD as well. (Heh; something tells me my supervisors won't be opening tickets for me, though.)
Last night I stumbled onto TimePost, which looks like a tidy app that doesn't do much but could be a real bonus to logging my time in FogBugz effectively. I tried looking around for similar apps but came up a little empty-handed. Are there any other FogBugz clients that you've used and recommend for Mac OS X? Or are you happy with the web interface?
The official answer is no, there is not a dedicated Mac client, other than Safari :)
There's a command line version that runs on Linux, Windows, and Mac.
There are also plans for an iPhone version although I'm not technically supposed to announce features before they are done or even spec'd so pretend I didn't say that.
I recently spotted this one which looks quite nice for additions:

I'm happy with using the web interface. I've used Fluid to create a custom browser for it, and even gotten some help making a pretty icon.
We recently released a new Fogbugz client software for Mac, maybe you are interested to give it a try, http://lithoglyph.com/ladybugz/
I remember reading that there was a client in development, and I believe they're still looking for beta testers. See this URL

Shameless plug here, but you might wanna check out QuickBugz --- it is a lightweight program that integrates into your status menu. http://www.quickbugzapp.com
I have been very happily using the Tickets program from Manic Wave for a few weeks now. it provides a very fluid experience. I am using it in a pressure cooker of doing a competition entry in my odd hours around my day job.
Tickets makes it incredibly easy to create lots of small cases and juggle them between different milestones. I particularly like its outline view which helps when doing task breakdowns into sub-tasks.
Being a long way from the Fogbugz servers, in Western Australia, the speed of a searchable local interface is very much appreciated.
The UI has a lot of nice little Macisms such as mouse over a milestone and see the hours summarized.
Support has also been very prompt and comprehensive.
I don't think there is any other such Mac tool. I've never found the web interface too bad personally.
I don't know of any native tool, but like Matt I am pretty happy with the web interface.
The beta of Safari 4 and SSB feature is a pretty good option...
I found using a Mac browser w/ the screen snapshot and search engine add-on to be very useful. I think what you are saying is that it can be hard to edit your timesheets, but that is part of the web design.
I've just released Bee, which is a Mac client for FogBugz. (It also pulls in your tasks from GitHub and JIRA.)
It offers several benefits over the web interface and is designed to be simple, fast and elegant. You can check it out at: http://www.neat.io/bee/fogbugz.html
