Hi everyone, I am currently trying to create a website with my brother and a friend. I will be using the Django web development framework. I currently work as a software developper but I have no experience whatsoever in website development. I have a Virtual Private Server running Debian, and I wonder how to use it "properly" for web development. I want to use the server for these purposes: - use it as a Mercurial "server" to commit and store our code. - install a wiki on it (media wiki) - install redmine, an issue tracking system. - test the website in its beta phase before make it available for everyone. (relevant?) The questions that I have are: 1) How would you test your the product of your work? would you test it offline on your computer using a local apache server only? or would you want 2) In the case testing your code on in a production "environement" (on the VPS) is relevant, how do I make sure no one except us, developpers, have access to the website while it is built? Any complementary advice, personal experience, would be greatly appreciated ! Thanks in advance :)... Read More »
