duration 17:46 In issue #19 we speak with Michael Boyink of Boyink Interactive, who provides Internet consulting and design to clients of all sizes. Michael is known for his online ExpressionEngine training both on his site, and his EE training site, Train-EE.com. This interview covers the basics of building a site with ExpressionEngine, a commercial Content Management System {CMS}. We also discuss site architecture, specifically for ExpressionEngine. ExpressionEngine is a content management system, designed by EllisLab. It is available in a free “Core Version”, and in both “Personal” and “Commercial” versions after paying a one-time fee. The current version is 1.6.3. Version 2.0 has been announced for “some time in the summer of 2008″. ExpressionEngine is intended to be a simple, yet powerful content management system; for instance, it requires no knowledge of PHP, (but allows you to use it, if you want) and has extensive online documentation and a very active community of users and developers, with regular participation of the company’s lead programmers and other key personnel. SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT… This interview is the first in our re-design series over at Creative Component. Follow the blog as we go through a very public site design. Less
