Finally!

I finally launched The PCS Store’s web site! More features will be available to the public eye when they fill in the content. I don’t like showing people things that are available when they just bring up an error or a blank page. So as they fill in the Handset and Data Card details in the back-end, there will be additional screens and links available. A little about the app:

  • Ruby on Rails
    • RESTful controllers
    • Plugins
      • rspec
      • responds_to_parent
      • geokit
      • attachment_fu
    • Authentication for ‘Team Members’ and ‘Admin’ parts of the application leverages Net::IMAP so everyone can log in with their existing email username and password
  • Icons are from the Crystal Project (I started doing them myself but it was taking too damn long)
  • Info bubbles shamelessly copied from Panic (Transmit rocks!). Tried like hell to get them to be transparent in IE6 but to no avail so far…
  • Layout, logo and background are all me
  • Team Members section allows employees to gain access to important links and documentation
  • Admin section allows company execs to manage links, devices, documents, document categories
