Information for Project Managers

Logos

You can add VFPX logos to your source code, project Wiki page, your web site, etc.

Tips

This is a work in progress so feel free to add your own notes or comments that you believe will helpful to other project managers on VFPX.

• Create a README.md file for your project: Important information to include would be
  • Your name and contact information
  • A brief description of your project
  • Instructions on how to join the project
• Convert binary files to their text equivalents: Use FoxBin2PRG, Alternate SCCText, SubFox, or a similar program to convert VFP binary files, such as VCXs and SCXs, to text files so changes can be seen visually and merged together.
• Thor updater: If you want your project to be available for download through Thor, see the VFPX Deployment Project for a tool to automate the process. Matt Slay’s blog post How Thor Checks And Distributes New Versions Of Tools In FoxPro has a great background on the Thor update process.
