DuchPIPE is software for web developers with experience in PHP and Javascript. DutchPIPE is software that enables multi user, object oriented, persistent state web sites, and is a whole new perspective of looking at sites and pages.
On the client side, DutchPIPE uses DHTML (DOM, XHTML and Javascript). On the server side, PHP is run from the command line and from the web server. It should run on any operating system/web server that supports PHP. MySQL is used as the database to store users and such, but this can be any database. Client and server communicate by means of AJAX.
DutchPipe site becomes an abstracted world or universe populated with objects, which can be moved into or out of eachother and perform certain actions. There's only one world with one set of objects - if you drop something on a page, someone else can visit that page, see the object, and carry it away elsewhere.
Some application that developers can make using DutchPipe easily are:
Social sites: Build visualized, real multi-user communities, fora and chat rooms. See your buddies wander around.
E-commerce and site assistant applications: Make easy-to-use product and shopping cart pages. Have automated and/or real person site assistants stand by to assist your customers and increase sales.
Game environments: From card games to virtual RPG worlds, DutchPIPE makes it possible.
Site monitoring, 'snooping': Track where people are going and what they are doing. Improve your processes. Be invisible, or run DutchPIPE invisible for visitors. Snoop visitors: see an exact copy of a visitor's browser window, including mouse movements. Beware of the privacy implications!
Developers platform extraordinaire: Persistent state, object-oriented building gives way to a whole new way of developing DOM web applications. In other words...
The DutchPIPE source code will be available soon under the terms of a standard BSD licence. The first released version to the public will be DutchPIPE alpha 0.3, estimated release date May 16 2006.
In the meantime the DutchPipe will be available for hands-on you can enjoy the Avtar enabled Live Chat Demo, which is present on the DutchPipe website.
