Stuck creating an application

blzkzblzkz
in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

Hello everyone!

I'm just a bit stuck, I downloaded the skeleton for applications from here https://github.com/vanilla/addons and also I read something about creating the application here:
http://vanillawiki.homebrewforums.net/index.php/Hello_World_Application
http://vanillawiki.homebrewforums.net/index.php/Writing_Applications
http://vanillawiki.homebrewforums.net/index.php/The_Album_Application

I can't even make a helloworld :(.

I worked with CI (MVC framework), but I can't find some good documentation about this :/

Where can I look?
I'm using vanilla 2.2rc

Thank you!

    Welcome to the community.

    2.2rc is NOT ready for production use.

    Can you say what you want to achieve with your application?

    There may be something similar which would give you a good start.

    Thank you! I just want to learn about making applications, I had browsed in aplications (and downloaded basic pages and one or two more) to see some examples, but I cannot extract how to make the relation between controllers and views, and of course the route to see that.

    I'm trying to make an app that shows a page with "helloworld" message, just to figure out how it works.
    I have a controller (HelloWorld) that extends Gdn_Controller (just skeleton controller renamed) and HomeT controller that extends HelloWorldController and it has only a function named index, with $this->render(); inside.

    I also have an index.php page with the message in views folder.

    Thank you in advance :)

    I found this http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/19713/solved-documentation-need-help-writing-an-application yesterday, and now I have my basic application working and I have figured out how it works :)

    Thank you!

    Always good to see another developer looking at Garden. :)

    It's a competition between devs that takes place in a short period of time (e.i. 1 week, 1 weekend) where the devs have to achieve the goal of finish an application based on a theme. You can check an example of this at www.ludumdare.com (jams for game developers).

    I have heard of game jams before, but never applied to applications.

    I think this could be a fun way to get some code written.
