End of Week 3

This week was the beginning of the actual development process. My assignment for this summer is focusing on creating a content management system for Palau’s College Access Challenge Grant Program. As the title suggests, the program focuses on facilitating successful enrollment and graduation in college among students in Palau’s public education system. There is a curriculum designed for each grade starting from 6th grade under the guidance of this program.

As a part of the CACG, there is an iPad deployment plan among 8th grade classrooms in order to enhance their learning experience, however there is no streamlined way to deliver content from a teacher’s computer to the iPads, which is where my content management system will come into play.

The development process this week was still a mixture of planning along with development. In the planning process for the past two weeks, I found that robust content management systems like WordPress and Drupal would not be viable for this specific assignment. That being said, Joseph and I wanted to use the same language and same framework, so we had to do some research before coming to the conclusion that using the Slim framework with PHP would be the best choice for our work. Other than that, this week was spent developing a prototype which will hopefully be shown in its first iteration next week.

How to Convert Bookmarklet to Chrome Extension

I ran into the problem of converting from one to another a while ago and all I could find was a bunch of tutorials that didn't help too much, half of them outdated or with missing pieces of code.

There was no way that simple copy-paste will solve my problem. Surely, I can't be the only person that has few useful bookmarklets, but want to save up space and hide bookmarks bar altogether.

Click here to use Bookmarklet to Chrome Extension Converter

Now it turns out that I somehow skipped this piece of code that looks pretty similar to code generated by converter, but before that discovery, I thought: I'm a developer, so there is only one reasonable solution to my problem:

I will create my own bookmarklet to Chrome extension converter.

It's ready and you can find it here. All you have to do is to figure out some clever name and description, drag bookmarklet into textarea and hit "Generate" button.

You can also browse source code on GitHub.

I think it's pretty good start point to see how simple Chrome extension looks like and develop it further, if you fancy learning basics of something new over the weekend. Want to use your own icon? Replace three png files in the folder and you're good to go!
