Notes

The particularity of this project is that it was build from scratch, without the use of any library. The frontend is purely Vanilla JavaScript, CSS and HTML. The backend is a simple PHP/MySQL application running on an Apache server.

It was developed by James Nolan during the summer of 2008 — 8 years ago! —, as a high school side project. The project was revived in 2016 as a demonstration.

Obviously, such an application would be done very differently today. Frameworks, browser support and best practices have changed a lot since then.
