Portfolio Application
A Free DNM RAD Application
About DNM RAD Portfolio Application
A portfolio is a web application which displays one's projects. Projects inside a portfolio are displayed to showcase one's knowledge, skills and accomplishments to professionals or potential clients. Mainly, a portfolio consists of project images and short text to describe the project.
We are releasing this FREE portfolio application, the same version packaged from the DotNetMushroom website but without data. Website owners can easily unpackage on their website, through DotNetMushroom RAD. No programming skills are really required from website owners. The only two things required are DotNetMushroom RAD installed on the website to unpackage the portfolio application, and basic knowledge of HTML and CSS to skin the form according to the website's colours, font, etc.
This application consists of two modules, being the Summary View and the Detail View. You can deploy one or both applications in your website.
Summary View
The Summary View is the same Summary View you will find on the DotNetMushroom website. It displays your top 4 projects. You can choose which ones to display by ticking the "Project Is Featured" checkbox from the Administration Panel.
Detail View
The Detail View is the same Detail View you will find on the DotNetMushroom website. It displays unlimited number of projects. You can order your projects according to your preference, by inserting an order number in the Order Number text box from the Administration Panel.
This DotNetMushroom RAD application has passed our thorough testing procedure which includes functional and visual cross browser compatibility.

Quick Loading
The portfolio application is built by using JavaScript with DotNetMushroom RAD. With the help of JavaScript the page is not reloaded, only the project content reloaded. This helps the content to load quicker than having each project with its own static page.
Easy to Deploy
Simply load the zip file containing this application and press the unpackage button in DotNetMushroom RAD. We have also included step by step instructions on how to do this in the documentation that comes with this application.
Fully Customizable
One doesn't have to be a programmer to use and edit this portfolio application on his/her website. Basic HTML and CSS skills are sufficient only to customize the design.
Fully Tested
We originally launched this portfolio application on our website (http://www.dotnetmushroom.com), to display the projects we developed. This demonstrates that this application was tested during implementation on the DotNetMushroom website.
