Tiivistelmä
Since the web found its true form, it is no longer static web pages without any user’s interaction. During the last few years, web applications have matured to the point that they can compete with full-fledged desktop applications. The support technologies have been growing significantly with the likes of Google web toolkit, web application frameworks, and CMS.
This thesis is based on the real application of Tykes, which has been coded by hand in PHP for a few years. The approach is set to improved Tykes’s features and performance. As the result, it shows the benefits of implementing web frameworks in real life works.
The action research method is used to answer the research questions in this study, in inductive approach. The researcher’s experience is compared to other relevant published sources. Example source codes are extracted from Tykes.
The research results show an expected range. It confirms the positive effects of implementing web framework in web application development. Features which have been tested in Tykes are presented and compared to their originals. Some example source codes are extracted from the application to prove the results.
To conclude, the reasons and recommendations are put forward. Although the frameworks and their communities have grown up dramatically and are near maturing, there are still lacking of features and incompatibility problems. Therefore, further study is recommended on those.
