From Program to Product: Turning Your Code into a Saleable Product (2008)

Book Description

March 28, 2008 1590599713 978-1590599716 1
Many would–be software entrepreneurs with expertise in many fields attempt to turn a homegrown application—one developed for use in their own business or profession—into a commercial product. Lack of knowledge, experience, or skills often prevents the idea from ever taking shape, let alone achieving its potential. Entering a new field to start a business leaves many developers unprepared and not even fully aware that it’s something they know so little about. They will also often have a job that conflicts with the time commitment required to market the program well enough for it to become a complete success.
Do you have an idea for a commercially viable software product or already have a product with the potential for dream financial rewards? Would–be software entrepreneurs must consult From Program to Product: Turning Your Code into a Saleable Product, written by software developer and entrepreneur Rocky Smolin, for an indispensable roadmap to creating a commercially successful software product. Smolin shares insights from his own experience and covers topics you may never anticipate but are vital to success, like pricing, documentation, licensing, and tracking customers.

What you’ll learn

Rocky Smolin walks you through the essentials of turning a development project into a product, including:
  • How to determine the best method of licensing your work and how to enforce that license
  • Choosing the appropriate price, calculating potential revenue, and selecting payment methods, including leasing and support options
  • Selling products direct to the customer, through retailers, and via other sales channels
  • Managing technical considerations within your development project, including logos, splash 

  • screens, output, error trapping and reporting, and localization/internationalization
  • Creating attractive packaging and developing an appearance for the product, including within the application itself, supporting documentation, and in external components
  • Handling marketing, sales, and administration—learn product differentiation, lead generation, prospect tracking, and customer follow–ups

Who this book is for

From Program to Product: Turning Your Code into a Saleable Product is for both the “lone ranger” programmer and small developer teams of 2-3 persons each. If you have a program developed for your own use and would like to commercialize it, but are stymied at the many issues to consider and resolve before selling to the public, you’ll find your answers here. Additionally, if you’re a programmer at the moment with an idea or a desire to try to create a commercially viable application, and you’re motivated by the dream of cash flow, this book is a vital roadmap.

Sử dụng gcov để kiểm tra sourcecode

Sau khi hoàn thành source code, trong test phase, có thể chúng ta cần kiểm tra tập test case của chúng ta có coverage tất cả các trường hợp có thể xảy ra hay không, hành động này gọi là test code coverage. Có nhiều tool miễn phí cũng như có phí để thực hiện việc này, nhưng đơn giản nhất là sử dụng công cụ gcov đi kèm trong trình biên dịch gcc. Để đọc chi tiết hơn về gcov, bạn có thể vào http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Gcov.html#Gcov, hoặc tìm kiếm với Google. Sử dụng gcov khá đơn giản, giả sử ta có 3 file a.c, b.c và c.c. Truy cập vào thư mục chứa 3 files này, gõ: gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage a.c b.c c.c Mặc định gcc sẽ tạo ra file a.out trong thư mục hiện thời, cùng với 3 file a.gcno, b.gcno và c.gcno. Sau đó bạn chạy file a.out với các parameter cần thiết, sẽ tạo ra thêm 3 file a.gcda, b.gcda và c.gcda. Sau đó, giả sử cần phân tích file b.c, chúng ta gõ: gcov b.c Có hai tham số thường dùng là -b và -f: -b: thêm thông tin về branch trong code. -f: thêm thông tin về hàm. Thông

Getting started with Cryptpad in Ubuntu: step by step

Cryptpad is an open source collaborative editor which is hosted at: https://github.com/cjdelisle/cryptpad It is easy to clone the github repository and start to try, but if you are a newbie, there maybe some difficulties. Suppose that you have a clean Ubuntu machine, and want to try with Cryptpad, you can follow these steps: 1. Download mongodb for Linux: https://www.mongodb.org/downloads 2. Unzip the file you got to a location you want. You will start mongodb from there, or add this directory to your PATH variable so you can start mongodb from anywhere. 3. Suppose that you chose the easier way, i.e start mongodb from its directory. 4. Open Terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T for shortcut), move to the directory of mongodb 5. Type: mkdir db mongod --dbpath=./db These above commands will first, create a directory 'db' insider the directory mongodb, then start mongodb server. 6. Keep the terminal with mongodb server running 7. Open another terminal (Ctrl + Shift +
