It is a major milestone in my life and will hopefully open more fruitful doors in the future. I would like to thank my family, friends, some faculty, some staff, and most importantly Red Bull. I, also, like to thank our coordinator, Dr. Alj, I gratefully give a special thanks my supervisor, Dr. Kettani, for helping me throughout this capstone project. He not only guided me through the technical parts of it all but also supported me when things were most stressful. I have learned a lot from Dr. Kettani over this past semester and hope to follow a path similar to his. Al Akhawayn University has been an unexpected unforgettable and extremely stressful part of my life that I will always cherish. I have learned things that I know I will use for the rest of my life. Over the past years, I feel that I have grown more than my whole life before that. I am ready to face the next step and hopefully challenging part of my life. Again, I would like thank everyone who has been a part of this journey. Without all of you, I doubt this would be in front of you, well not yet at least.

  • Write a Web Application for Free Edition 2
    Write a Web Application for Free Edition 2 Thomas Davenport This book is for sale at http://leanpub.com/WriteAWebApplication4Free This version was published on 2016-01-27 This is a Leanpub book. Leanpub empowers authors and publishers with the Lean Publishing process. Lean Publishing is the act of publishing an in-progress ebook using lightweight tools and many iterations to get reader feedback, pivot until you have the right book and build traction once you do. © 2016 Thomas Davenport Contents Chapter One ............................................ 1 In which we get started .................................... 1 Chapter One In which we get started Introduction We are going to build a simple web application to learn something about HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL. We will use these technologies to create a working web application. Apart from your computer and internet connection, everything you use will be free. We will develop and test our code off-line before uploading the tested application to the server. That is not always a straight forward process but it does allow us to make mistakes offline and in private. NB: For this book I am working on a Windows platform. All of the code will work on Linux or IOS but you may need different development tools. The browser in all of the images is Firefox developer edition. Get the Tools 1. Text Editor There are many free editors. If you google “Free Text Editor” you will get over 150 million hits. They all have their own strengths and weaknesses. The one I will use is called Notepad++. I like the way the layout changes dependent on the file type and we will find the ftp and Spell-checker plugins very useful.

    ESCUELA TÉCNICA SUPERIOR DE INGENIEROS INFORMÁTICOS UNIVERSIDAD POLITÉCNICA DE MADRID UNIVERSIDAD POLITÉCNICA DE MADRID ESCUELA TÉCNICA SUPERIOR DE INGENIEROS INFORMÁTICOS TRABAJO FIN DE CARRERA Infraestructura TI para proyectos de generación de contenidos audiovisuales. Autor: Juan Manuel Victoria Martínez Tutor: Susana Muñoz Hernández Fecha de presentación: 18 de Julio de 2018 Un reconocimiento especial a profesores, compañeros de Universidad y compañeros de andadura, porque ellos, con su “Juan no lo dejes”, “Juanito dale un empujón que merece la pena” y “Juanma ponte las pilas” han sido capaces de hacerme creer, no solo en que continuar merecía la pena, cosa que desde siempre sospechaba y de la que no puedo estar más seguro, sino de que si me lo proponía podía conseguirlo, porque tropezando con ellos he aprendido que en esta vida uno ha de perseguir y hacer lo que esté en su mano para terminar aquello que comienza. Ellos consiguieron que hiciera del desafío mi desafío. Gracias a mi mujer, Silvia, por su paciencia y su confianza, en modo alguno podría haber completado este trabajo sin su apoyo y su ayuda, a mis padres y familia por no perder nunca su confianza. Gracias a Juan Antonio, a José Miguel Sanz, a Paco Tostado, y a todos los que he tenido el placer de acompañar todos estos años y han confiado cada día en que, si quería, podía hacerlo. Gracias a Susana, por confiarme la importante responsabilidad y oportunidad de aportar mis pequeños granitos de arena y mi experiencia a su equipo de trabajo. iii A ti mujer, por estar ahí, por ser quien confía en que cada uno de nosotros puede conseguir lo que se proponga, por aguantar carros y carretas cuando cualquier otro hubiera tirado la toalla.
