Real Estate Web Application with LAMP Development

We developed a real estate web application for an Australian client who needed a tailored application to enhance their business. The goal was simple: the new application should support transactions and information management.

Our web development team adopted LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP) to develop this project. Here, our web developers want to share some tips that summarized from LAMP web application development project:

Tip 1: Choosing Appropriate PHP Development Tools for Web Application Development

We recommend Eclipse Platform. This is a powerful PHP development environment for PHP web developers creating web application, including PHP Development Tools (PDT), Web Tools Platform, Mylyn and others. The PDT (PHP Development Tools) project provides PHP Development Tools framework for the Eclipse platform. The PDT project contains all development components necessary to develop PHP and facilitate extensibility. It leverages the existing Web Tools Platform (WTP) and Dynamic Languages Toolkit (DLTK) in providing web developers with PHP capabilities.

PHPEd and Zend Developer Studio are options for PHP web development project. They may be easier to use due to their faster and possible better organized environments.

Tip 2: Recommending a Popular Database Management Tool

Probably, Web based PHPMyAdmin is the most popular and powerful tool for database management. PHPMyAdmin is an open source tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL across the World Wide Web. It supports a wide range of operations with MySQL, for example, execute, edit and bookmark any SQL statement, even batch queries, manage MySQL users and privileges, import MySQL databae from backup, etc.

Tip 3: The Linux Solution for Web Development

Linux is the operating system on which the applications execute. Linux system is safer than Windows because viruses are less of a threat on Linux. Linux system is designed and developed very difficult for a virus to function as it does in Windows. It is easy to get support when the project runs into difficulties on Linux. Basically, web developers can find many 3rd party service providers that offer service contracts for Linux systems. Linux also give developers the chance to improve their knowledge – learn new skills and gain deeper insights into Linux system.

Summary

We can say that LAMP development is the backbone of the web development now because the L AMP development tools allow web developers to do lots of different things in web development. The LAMP development tools provide the ability to design web and database that are both effective and creative.
