Behind the site
The site is, of course, entirely made using Atomik Framework. I use Mootools for all the javascript aspects.
The site is also 100% compatible with W3C recommendations. You can also try to desactivate your javascript and it will still work. Disabling CSS, while making it ugly, still offers a correct output.
URLs and routes
All urls are either built using Atomik::url() or Atomik::asset().
Sub-directories into the actions folder are used for better organization and clearer urls.
Routes and pretty urls are used in the plugins section for better search engine optimization.
Plugins name in urls are built using Atomik::friendlify().
Forms
All forms are validated using Atomik::filter() and messages are forwarded using
Atomik::flash().
Plugins
Only two plugins are activated: Ajax and Db. The first one is used in the download and plugins section. The second is obviously used everywhere there is data!
The documentation and the forum
Both use third party tools. The documentation is written in the docbook format. The docbook-xsl stylesheets are used for rendering.
The forum is made using fluxbb.
