by Erica Sadun (Jan 22nd, 2013)

Just yesterday, we told you about the new GUI version of Transmission.

Create your own iPhone remote application

by Mike Schramm (Aug 23rd, 2007)

One of the good things about the "very sweet solution" of iPhone development is that you don't need any special tools or too much knowhow to create neat applications-- if you know a little HTML, a little PHP, and have access to a text editor, you can come up with some pretty cool stuff. This ...

Hypercard's history

by Mike Schramm (Jul 24th, 2007)

SiliconUser takes a short look at ye olde Hypercard technology, Apple's precursor to the concepts that eventually became HTML and the World Wide Web. The project was originally created in 1985 as an easier way to create programs on the Macintosh-- it consisted of a "cards and stacks" metaphor, as in ...

FileMaker 9 released

by Michael Rose (Jul 11th, 2007)

You'd be forgiven for thinking, especially reading our coverage and stories elsewhere, that the only new product to come out of Apple, Inc. in the past two weeks was some sort of bizarre chimera mutant love child of an iPod and a cellphone. Not true! Hardworking and underappreciated subsidiary ...

Taco HTML v1.7.2 is Universal

by David Chartier (Jun 9th, 2006)

If Dreamweaver is a bit overkill for some web work on your desk, Taco HTML might just be the editor for you. It's a small yet feature-packed web editor with tag coloring, HTML preview, syntax checking, code snippets and more. It's my favorite editor for HTML pages or tweaking a WordPress PHP page ...

Headdress

by Scott McNulty (May 21st, 2006)

Headdress is a nifty little application that makes turning on and off PHP very easy, but that's not all. It also takes care of modifying the Apache config files, so your little old Mac can serve up a number of websites (locally) without you having to worry about nesting files or anything like that. ...

I'm really glad to see all this innovation in WYSIWYG web editing software, and from my experience, Sandvox from Karelia Software is poised to lead the pack.

Blogging the switch to Mac OS X

by David Chartier (Apr 4th, 2006)

I found another one of those 'switcher blogs' and I thought it might make an interesting read for both Mac newbies and power users.

Apache and PHP on a Mac

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Feb 20th, 2006)

One of the very first cool things I learned about the guts of OS X was the existence of Apache, an industrial-strength web server, built in to the OS. O'Reilly has a nice piece on getting started with Apache, so start there if you're new to web serving on your Mac. Imagine hosting your own pages for ...

by Scott McNulty (Dec 29th, 2005)

Komodo, a powerful IDE for various scripting languages and the like, has been released for OS X by ActiveState. Any time a company releases an IDE for OS X I do a little dance on the inside because it means that people are noticing the developer community that OS X has built up around it. More ...
