The concept for this site was the outcome of Startup Weekend 2 (2009). A bunch of entruepenuers, code monkeys, marketing professionals and just plain techies got together to brainstorm ideas and create a business. All in a short 54 hours!
Saints – VS – Sinnerz is a site to anonoymously post your secrets. Good or bad and available for judgement! In case you are wondering, we did it. Yes sirrrr.. we were able to develop the entire business model and implement it as the backbone to our success. The website was functional but didn’t launch until a few days later.
Using from what I learned last year at Startup Weekend 2008, we needed a rapid development environment. I chose Ruby on Rails for a number of reasons but all in all, I can’t get enough it. Props to Alfredo for creating a kick ass design and working his kung fu on the markup and CSS.

Tasked to develop the front end of this beauty, I kept it light and clean. 188 templates later, I am proud to see this one live. Well, I didn’t do the design or the backend but my hands were dirty and this was one of my favorite projects for ‘09!

This is the start of what is going to be a small series on developing a modern approach to managing FileZilla through an API. Primarily, I will develop in PHP and will eventually port the code into Ruby.
It really is a work in progress and my primary goal is to get it to a point where I can manage users through an API. I chose XML to start with and will also port into JSON at a later time. It is important to note that while I prefer the *nix system, I needed to set this up on a MS box, not that I wanted to, believe me. The code is so rough it is bound to have some issues, if you see anything worth noting, please point it out!
Also, this work is to be released under the GPL so please feel free to use it as you like and give credit where credit is due.
