My Opera Development

Behind the scenes at My Opera

But We Ain't Done Yet

, , ,

Finally, we're able to show the world what we have been tinkering with the last few months. Since before Christmas, actually.

We didn't really plan for it to be so long between updates, however since Fredrik went totally overboard with a complete site redesign, we figured we might as well do some heavy-lifting under the hood as well.

Besides a new look, this release brings with it some new features, and some forward-thinking database backend optimisations which we hope will relieve some stress further down the road. A proper changelog will follow as soon as we've had time to fix the most obivous bugs still left wink

Thanks for waiting while we updated. Hope you like at least some of the new stuff spock

the team
Back, left to right: Fredrik (design/frontend code), Espen (community management), Michael (design/frontend code), Sverre (backend code/javascript), Ole Kasper (backend code/backend project management), Vetle (manager -- dunno what he's doing here? p), William (backend code).
Front, left to right: Kjetil (backend code), Esteban (quality assurance)



OK, back to work. We need to start on the NextBigThing. p

You rock, mates, you rock. A great community page. I'm following it's developement since it was only a forums page and the craze about blogs did not exist yet.

The present edition is stylish and modern, yet not trivial.

Well done! beer cheers
