Wrote a small service in Haskell to handle large uploads in preparation for a new feature. Does interleaved IO and streams the uploaded file directly to Cloudfiles while also saving a copy on the local disk to be able to extract some metadata and add them to our DB at the end.
Also did play with the idea of creating a general upload service based on this implementation, but for now I'm focusing on other things.
Let's say I use html/css from scratch; or integrate some coffeescript in it.. How clients are supposed to edit the text? I.e How the intuitive widgets works to change stuff?
Webpop lets you work with structured content, pull the content into your templates and define exactly the HTML used to present the content.
The system then automatically detects what part of your site is dynamic content that the client should be able to edit and what's design. The client then get a simple on-site editor for updating his contents.
There's a video of it all in action here:
