Developer Support

EditMe is more than just a hosted wiki product - it is a content management and web application development platform. Developers can quickly build fully dynamic web applications within an EditMe site using server-side JavaScript, an innovative template system, and a simple API.

The HTML page layout of an EditMe site is defined by its Layout. EditMe Layouts use an easy-to-learn template language we call Attribute Scripting. While Layouts allow customization of the look and feel of a site and enable simple dynamic behavior, they are just the surface. Scripted pages using server-side JavaScript, a data storage and retreival API, and an event model provide a complete web application development platform.

EditMe's Developer documentation is organized as follows:

Attribute Scripting covers using the template system to display dynamic data.

Server Side Java Script covers writing application code within EditMe pages.

Java Script API covers the objects and classes available for use by developers. 

Development Best Practices provides good advice to developers getting started with EditMe.           

Customizing The Editing Screen provides detailed instructions for customizing the built-in editing screen. 

Sample Applications discusses using the modules EditMe provides as learning tools.
