Model View Controller
Model/view/controller. There are literally hundreds of pages describing MVC on the Web. If someone wants to learn about it, what should (s)he do? Look at the first few hits in Google? I expect we can do better than that. Write a review of the MVC sites on the Web. Which are best for learning about the concept? Which have the most instructive examples? Which are best for explaining how to use the pattern in Ruby and Java? If you choose this topic, you should be sure to peruse at least several dozen sites.
Reviews of Fabulous Websites
Best Sites for Learning the Model View Controller Concept
- http://www.enode.com/x/markup/tutorial/mvc.html : This is an awesome introduction to the concept. Short, sweet and to the point.
Best Sites for Model View Controller Examples
Best Sites for How to Use the Pattern in Ruby and Java
Sites that Suck
This will be deleted once we're done.... Include sites you've reviewed so we're not double reviewing.
- http://www.site.uottawa.ca:4321/oose/index.html#MVC: Its very brief, more like a bundle of definitions, wont help in any kind of understanding
- http://st-www.cs.uiuc.edu/users/smarch/st-docs/mvc.html : This one started off very well and I was about to put it into a good one for the concept but then it later delves into the details of mvc through a very small talk'y perspective, i dont think i can make much sense of it
