TWikiEcommerceApp (Development topic)

About TWikiApp's:

• a TWikiApp is a specific combination of one or more TWiki Skins Plugins, Add-on's, Topics and Forms which have been brought together to perform a particular task as easily and efficiently as possible. Considering the flexability of the TWikiCoreEngine as well as the sheer number of modules which are available to the application developers to choose from, it is easy to understand, there exists a broad variety of tasks which these TWikApps are capable of performing. Likewise, TWikiApps are each somewhat unique, in that, each may require a unique set of steps be taken in order to properly install the app in a way which will produce the desired end result. Therefor is imperative that the documentation, specifically the InstallationDocumentation, for these TWikiApps be as detailed and accurate as humanly possible.

Please Note, To date there exists no "TWikiAppTemplate" or "_defaultTWikiApp" and considering the diverse nature TWikiApps inherently posess, it may infact prove difficult to frame such examples. with that said, During the process of developing the TWikEcommerceApp I will also be utilizing the process of its development as an example of how a TWikiApp might be documented, developed and packaged. and with that said, please do not confuse my process of developing a process as the process!

once the development here is complete, I plan to use the knowledge gained to produce a CreateNewTWikiApp form which will allow a developer to file uniform documentation in the process of creating and packaging a new TWiki Application.
