First course posted! (it’s still under development though)
Although it seems nothing has been going on since January, that’s not true! I kept silent on the website only because I switched to a different technology - all Flash - and had to start from scratch programming a player framework to put the course into.
Yesterday I put the first course online. It is still under development, but this is the first time I have something more than this blog to show!
Under http://letexa.com/courses/1/ you can find this course. As of posting time, only the first two items “Installation” and “Basic Configuration” have contents. The more interesting one - with sound already - is under “Basic Configuration” -> “Background Information”. The playback controls (forward/back/seek) don’t fully work yet, but you can use the seekbar to go to the end of the audio to go to the end if you don’t want to wait the full 6 minutes!
Development is progressing much faster now, since I finally have the framework in place. I decided to go all-Flash - for many reasons. In a much later stage I would like to have course contents and course behavior separated (as I said in previous posts here, read there), and then any player could be programmed to show the actual course. This way we’d be independent of Flash, but for know that’s the only really viable x-platform multimedia technology.
