Why the name Deploy*?

Filed under: About Deploy* — Oscar Godson @ 9:07 pm

Another question I get frequently is, why the name Deploy*. When I was thinking of a name, deploy was the perfect word.

The New Oxford Dictionary says deploy(verb) means: “bring into effective action; utilize”.

Deploy* trys to bring your web project into effective action and ready to be utilized to create the project right away without the hassle of creating a template (x)html, css, or download the latest jQuery version and create directories.

The “*” comes from the regexp idea of “all” or “everything”. I wanted a way to say, deploy any web project framework. I wanted to keep it minimal enough for a designer to use, but robust to use for a jQuery plugin developer to start on his lastest idea for a jQuery plugin right away before he looses his train of thought.

I hope this clears up any confusion.
