Open source projects which I already created a lot so far doesn't seem any lights...The question is not clear, which developer would prefer a closed-source project? I believe no one
That's why I want to know what kind of project that members are looking for.It would be a project of exceptional value
Judging the Pros and Cons, does this kind of project worth to start?Both from an educational point of view and from the point of view of practical use
I don't get it.Allowing the connection of the classic management software with 'your' e-commerce would be a truly unmissable possibility for any developer
The problem I see in B4X community is low interest for collaboration in open source projects.However, it seems like a project of significant dimensions, and therefore managing to contain the contribution required to reach the widest possible audience is, I believe, a fairly difficult issue.
I think this is depends. Some real customers are not IT savvy so they don't know or care what the technologies behind it. As how we promote our B4X product, we can just say that we are using Java and other technologies such as HTML and JavaScript.If the target is different, "real customers"... they will not want unknown software, created by a single programmer
I have to accept it that open source projects sometimes really depends on luck. If it gains interest then it will grow, otherwise it will not going anywhere.obviously it is better for it to be open source
Maybe due to level of skill.
In truth, I think this idea is really very good.Allowing the connection of the classic management software with 'your' e-commerce would be a truly unmissable possibility for any developer

In truth, I think this idea is really very good.
But it is not working.An Open Source project to promote B4X is a great idea.
I never limit the project to B4X members.But I don't think this project should be done for B4X members.
No, it is made to show off to both developers who are new to B4X and existing B4X developers who doesn't realize the potential of B4X.It should rather be made for developers who do not yet know B4X.
Good.I'm thinking of tools that any developer would need to improve their project.
Hmm... This will be limited for B4J project but why not? I am not a good designer for B4J apps and it may come useful for me too.For example a CSS editor for JavaFX would be useful even for those who do not yet use B4X.
You mean this is a strategy to promote B4X right?If they want to modify the tools created in B4X, they will have no other option than to turn to this wonderful language.
Indeed, it is a strategy to promote B4X.Back to my topic, I also thinking to use B4J server as the backend for the web app project.
Good to have more ideas, especially to promote B4X.Indeed, it is a strategy to promote B4X.
But your B4JServer Backend project is a great way to get there.
I'll develop the idea and come back later. Today I don't have time anymore
Thank you for your great work and contribution to B4XUnfortunately I feel not many people are interested to my projects, e.g Web API Server.
I meant to say that each of us, within this forum, will certainly have our own system for maintaining administration, customer and supplier records, some even accounting, etc...What is the above sentence mean?
What connection? what classic management software?
If I understand correctly, you mean the ability or possibility of integrations.I meant to say that each of us, within this forum, will certainly have our own system for maintaining administration, customer and supplier records, some even accounting, etc...
Well, by 'management' I meant the set of software procedures that each of us is already using
And which could be connected with an e-commerce if the latter were an open and documented system
If I understand correctly, you mean the ability or possibility of integrations.
With the database being used and availability of API, I don't see it is difficult.
If I am going to summarize (tl;dr) I think you mean Documentation is very important. I agree. but it does cost time.Actually having Api to exploit is already a step beyond the 'minimum sufficient'
Where by 'minimum sufficient' I mean the possibility of accessing the database via the ODBC driver to read/write information
And obviously the documentation that describes the data flow
I mean, if we have to add a customer record from the management system, we need to know which ones these are the minimum information to be set on the db, the same for category, currency, etc...
