Langoor.net - An Introduction
The concept of a website builder is nothing new. It has been floating around for years. I have myself been thinking about it for a long time now (2–3 years, ever since I built my first website).
Simply put, langoor.net is exactly what I have been thinking about—a ready-made website builder with built-in themes and a features store.
Built with Simplicity in Mind
It inevitably means that it is as simple as it can be. I have been using it for quite a while (and have done some not-so-important work with features and back-end code as well).
With simplicity comes elegance and efficiency. Though elegance is still on its way in the current version of langoor.net, as a programmer and user (mind it, I have been building websites on this as well), I can already see that taking shape in future iterations.
Designed to Scale
The design is clear, clean and scalable (I am not talking about the user interaction part). Naturalisation on the UI is something that we have been constantly working on.
Overall, for me, langoor.net is a beautiful platform that does what it is supposed to do. Implementation, obviously, is limited only by imagination. It is as extensive as you can imagine.
Easy Website Building
We can build our website using a What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (WYSIWYG) editor. We can use the available themes and manipulate them according to our requirements.
For the more complicated tools in a website, we are provided with simple-to-use drag, drop and install widgets. Most importantly, the power is in your hands. You can customise almost everything and even create your own widgets if you need to do so.
Built for Both Designers and Developers
For simpler requirements (about 70–80 percent of users), it provides out-of-the-box website building functionality.
More extensive websites can be developed over the existing architecture using extend.langoor.net, and the process is going to become even simpler soon.
Basically, what we are building is not only a designer's dream, but also a developer's friend in a one-stop shop.
A Platform That Keeps Improving
The best part about this platform is that it is self-learning—and no, I am not talking about Artificial Intelligence yet.
Whenever we add a functionality or make any improvement, it automatically becomes reusable. Further requirements and feedback only add to the fun.
Widgets and features are getting better each day, and they automatically become available to users through updates.
Conclusion
So now website building is more about fun than just learning.
What we have is a designer's dream, a developer's friend and every web lover's toy.
