#Welcome to the harbour-ostos wiki!#

##This is an initial Wiki page.##

The project initiator is on summer leave now in summer 2016 for july at least. There are also some hindering issues like home move (the project will stay here, however). If I get back to internet with my main desktop, or can manage to get things working otherwise, I may get back even earlier.

The roadmap is to be done##

###Please take care of database compatibility### Changes to database should be done so that updating the app keeps user's data unspoiled. Easier said than done, you'll have to: a) leave old fields unchanged b) add new fields to new tables c) or, implement database conversion. Read table in old format and write it back in new format. Once.

##New features##

  • Swedish translation ##Incoming features##
  • Improved German translation. I see, it's on the way! Alle Leute will be thankful whenever it comes.
  • There was a request for price counting / followup. Good idea, but it makes everything a bit more complicated.
  • Simplicity / clutter tradeoff: simple app or all the features.
  • The database boilerplate code in dbaccess.js is a bit dumb, I admit. Surefire yes, performance could be maybe improved with prepared statements, or optimizing SQL access only to app startup and shutdown, or developing even smarter startegy. At times I like to have both belt and suspenders, so Every Change Is a SQL access on the first version.
  • The page change animation seems to clog in the middle, but it looks that some other apps may have the problem too, so this isn't so specific to Ostos.
