MVC Model ???

Design Pattern

Event-Driven!!!

Design Pattern

First, enter the url in your browser...

Second, the website is loading...

Somewhere you cannot see... (backend)

  • JavaScript and stylesheets are retrieved
  • Queries are run against the database to retrieve data
  • The information from the database is rendered within the context of the markup
  • ...
  • The page is presented to the user

 

Then, you click on one bubble

It directs you to the location of the element

<element>: location

Sub-event/Actions:

getClick();

jump(location);

open(this.element);

close(this.element);

...

 

Pros:

  • WP is not only a blog, but also a CMS platform as well!
  • Have a straightforward user interface and 
  • Easy to use and upload/manage files
  • Open source/low cost

Cons:

  • Lack of flexibility; template: cannot customize several pages
  • Security Issues

What we could do:

  • Great user interface; smooth flow of integrating and presenting different materials(text/photo/video...)
  • We could make a demo page of one particular recipe reconstruction based on this model
