programming input meets business idea
1. I have a couple of web-based biz ideas (who doesn't!) that I'd like to build.
2. The ideas mostly involve simple database interactions. Basically, gathering and presenting data. I'll eventually need to address things like user management, performance, & security.
3. I am not proficient at a particular web framework / language
4. I am proficient at SQL, know html/xml in degrees, and know slightly-more-than-nothing about javascript. OO experience is very limited at best. Have done a little with PHP, (OLD) ASP, and Unix
5. My goal is not to have a perfect app but rather to get something going and go from there. I want to acquire first hand build experience. Thus, options like elance or hiring a programmer are out for this exercise.
6. I'm dedicated to putting in the time to learn (and fail) but certainly appreciate using tools, languages, etc with limited ramp-up times.
With this said, any suggestions for languages/ frameworks / tools to use?
Thank you!
P.S. the last thing I want is another PHP vs. Ruby vs. Python vs. whatever holy war discussion
