Setting up Fat Free CRM on Bluehost.com
Here is an overview of the installation process for Fat Free CRM on Bluehost accounts.
Fat Free CRM is an open source Ruby on Rails-based customer relationship management platform.
Michael Dvorkin is leading the development of this project.
Fat Free CRM installation is found at: http://wiki.github.com/michaeldv/fat_free_crm/installation
Since Fat Free CRM is open source, the code can have development forks.
Bryce McDonnell has taken one fork and has a hosted version of Fat Free CRM at Hostedffcrm.com
Local configuration and Software Tools for this exercise:
OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro
Terminal for SSH/Shell access
Smultron – File Editor
Interarchy – FTP Tool
FireFox
Smultron and Interarchy work very well together. Interarchy is Finder style ftp tool that has drag and drop capabilities. Smultron is a good editor that will let you open files located on a remote server for local editing. This is a good pair of tools for webserver work.
