The "shared engine" concept |

The JET Engine is a very unique system.
For the end user, The Jet is a php program and an associated admin center that does nothing and everything all at the same time. Once installed on their server, the user has a php system that on its own does essentially nothing. By adding any number of modules, both Commercial and OpenSource, the user can turn The Jet into almost anything: a Yahoo like search engine, a UBBish forum system, a Slashdot.org "living" news center, a survey, a shared calendar .... any or all of the above. The Jet Engine can be a single program or a complete portal, simply by dropping in new Modules.
For the Web Developer, The Jet Engine is a truly unique PHP API. Consisting of a set of core programs and modules, The Jet handles all of the boring, yet important tasks such as connecting to an SQL Database, receiving HTML Form data, validating user access, etc. As a Jet developer, you can create a new module for Jet and only have to worry about making your module work as it should, without having to worry about all of the setup or hassles normally associated with Web programming. In short, writing a new Jet Engine module is the equivalent of taking your flow chart or pseudo-code live instantly.
