CodeCharge Studio 3 - Upgrade Worth the Wait! |
|
Web Database Application Category Pick
|
| The latest release of CodeCharge Studio Includes a Lot of New Features |
|
Yessoftware has released version 3 of CodeCharge Studio and they have packed a lot of new features in to this product. CCS has regained their Category Pick status on DeveloperReviewed.com
|
| Themes replaced with Styles - and Dynamic Style Selection |
|
Although the older themes included with CodeCharge Studio are still available, the new Styles give your database web application a whole new look and feel. A wide variety of professionally designed styles are included, but a Style Builder let's you create your own styles for easy inclusion with your web applications. One of the best things about these new styles is the ability to let visitors to your web site dynamically select the Style they want to use to view your web pages. |
| Web Reports |
|
There are many times when you want to provide a view of your data that cannot be edited, but can be filtered, sorted and viewed like a report. In version 3 of CodeCharge Studio a Report Builder is included to let you do just that. Include a Printable View link in your report and navigation bar, search options, etc are hidden and a new web page is displayed ready to print from the browser. |
| Web Calendar - Easy to do and same look as the rest of your web site |
|
Although many data driven web applications don't need a full calendar component, if you are developing an application that needs one, CCS 3 makes it very easy to do. The calendar is available as a "builder' within CodeCharge Studio 3, so it can share the same style as the rest of your web application. You won't have to go looking for a calendar module or script as you may have had to do in the past. |
| Your Choice of Database and Your Choice of Language - CodeCharge Studio 3 does not limit you to .NET, .PHP, .ASP or MySQL, MS SQL or Access .mdb |
|
If you know you only want to develop web applications for one language then you may save some money by buying the Personal Edition. However, this would not include the web reporting features. My recommendation is to buy the full version of Code Charge Studio. View the comparison chart to decide which version you want.
CodeCharge Studio 3 regains the Category Pick from IronSpeed Designer because of the continued ease of use and learning, new web reporting, and new styles. I have reviewed other web development applications on this site, and all have their advantages and disadvantages. However, as of November 2005 I recommend Yessoftware's Code Charge Studio 3. Download your trial copy and see if you don't agree that this tool is really all you need to develop functional, attractive web database applications no matter what backend database or language.
