Case study: Version Controlled Documentation

Model Version Controlled Documentation helps to create and manage documentation of products that are issued in versions and after adapting also any other type of documentation. This ObjectGears application is interesting also from the licensing point of view since we can typically manage it with a low number of users that have to be authenticated. Version Controlled Documention is intended for sharing with external (unauthenticated) users both from internet. Therefore, such a solution can be operated in the ObjectGears free version.

This model is used for ObjectGears documentation, that you are viewing just now. In this case study we will describe how to create an application like this Version Controlled Documentation in ObjectGears. Like in similar cases it will be good to proceed in steps, starting with general requirements, designing data model and resolve particular details later on.
