Portable App Development

First of all, thank you so much for this community and this software. I love the concept of portable apps.

Now, for my question. I'd like to run the xampplite package (needing only apache, mysql, and php) from my local system with local access only. That is localhost alone with no external network access at all.

I've performed two modifications so far:

Building upon the great work that Klonk is doing with his Portable Application Template version 1.9.1 (found here: https://portableapps.com/node/6709), I took it one step further and make a full-blown launcher that can be configured just by editing an ini file.

If you have a few moments take a look at it here:

hey all,

ok i love opera, niff niff with firefox, and hate IE. Ive got FF portable on my PAM, however i just found Opera@usb which id rather use.

now to get to my point;
Im a noob developer (well worst than that, ive never developed before! i dont know anything botu scripting but i have written html and interpretted php before, which makes it easy for me to understand code...) so i need some help.

now to actually get to my point (i hope);

Using my generic PortableApp Launcher (https://portableapps.com/node/6924) I configured a Freemind
setup, available here: http://thebabineaus.com/software/FreemindPortable/FreemindPortable.rar

I rolled the Freemind version back to the stock version 0.9 beta9 downloadable from the website to
demonstrate the new and improved launcher The more people test the latest version the faster we
get to version 1.0!

If your java.exe isn't in PortableApps\jre\bin, then you will have to modify the ini file, replacing

I just had an idea:
If I did a backup this morning and I do one in the evening, too, then it prompts you whether you want to overwrite the old one or not. If I say NO it aborts.
Why not making a prompt to change the name instead of just aborting the process?

I don't know whether this has been mentioned/requested before but I just wanted to mention it.

Could someone who has done this please tell me every last detail about the coding, syntax, and packing, I have programs such as Apophysis that I would like to have on my portable apps (which I use multiple times daily) because of my fracal art that I also do on a daily basis. I know this is alot to ask and I am being very general and vague, but if you have any info for me at all, please either post here or email me at drigger01@gmail.com.

does someone have the source or know how john created the new PA installer? I'm really interested. i searched but couldn't find anything except that he announced that he would be adding it in the new updates for apps.

Please see this thread for information about the Application Manager Portable project. This posting is no longer relevant.

Hello all,

A friend just told me about the Portable Apps Suite, so I downloaded it and gave it a try. It's an interesting system, but I'd like to suggest the addition of a "package management" system such as Debian's APT to facilitate application installs, removals, and upgrades.
