XI: Goals

XI: Goals

There seems to be a lot of confusion about Intraweb XI. Hopefully this post will clarify many of these misunderstandings.

IntraWeb XI has the following goals:

  • Provide a high level of compatibility with IntraWeb 10 and provide a migration path for developers that takes less than 15 minutes per project. API changes
  • Simplify code base for easier maintenance by:
    • Removing support for little used features
    • Remove support for older browsers and standards that are no longer relevant.
    • Reduce the number of IDEs which are supported
  • Provide a stable code base for developers to depend on while we make major changes for IntraWeb XII.
  • Provide new features such as Integrated Page Mode (IPM) that are high value, but low impact to the current code base.
  • Provide a solid and expandable base to build IntraWeb XII on.
