Aims and ObjectivesS5 (A Simple Standards-Based Slide Show System) is an entirely browser based slide show system built on web standards such as XHTML, CSS and JavaScript. S5 is rudimentary as a slide show system compared to other slide show systems such as Google Presentations. This project will ... [More] build on S5’s current limitations as we web-based slide show system. Also this project will explore ways in which S5 can make better use of the collaborative possibilities of Web 2.0, such as social-networking sites, wikis and blogs. This will involve documenting and evaluating the existing code base of several slide show systems and then gathering customer requirements for enhancements. The key objective of the project will be to design and develop a web-based slide show system that incorporates a number of Web 2.0 technologies, and in essence compete against Microsoft PowerPoint and Google Presentations. An Extreme Programming (XP) approach will be adopted since this project will emphasise on customer involvement, teamwork and creating prototypes in quick succession. A team of developers will implement the proposed enhancements entirely on XHTML, CSS and JavaScript. S5 - http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/ [Less]
