[TYPO3-GSoC] Re: Status Update: BuilderFoundation & TemplateBuilder

[Jacob Floyd]

Update: 28 June 2013

♫ The next version of composer/installers will have support for boilerplates (type: typo3-flow-boilerplate)
- https://github.com/composer/installers/pull/92

✔ Pushed a PR on composer/installers to add boilerplate support (merged see above)
✔ Made a chart in VUE of all the Zurb Foundation, Twitter Bootstrap, and HTML5 Boilerplate components.
✔ Backed away from the persistence layer I was working on (way too complex to start off with)
✔ New code skeleton in proof-of-concept branch
✔ Decided to use the term "Blob" to mean any file, stream, part of a file, part of a stream, or snippet of stuff that might get copied from boilerplate to derivative. This also suggests that a SourceTemplate is an HtmlBlob (with CssBlobs and ImageBlobs) which makes things feel conceptually consistent to me. The UI will probably call it a Source Template, while in the code, I'll be working with Blobs.
➜ Continue working out the process of copying a blob from a boilerplate to a derivative.
