The opentaps Way of Coding

Why the opentaps Way of Coding

If you're reading this, you're probably either planning to customize opentaps Open Source ERP + CRM or build extensions with additional features for it.

Having done both many times, we've gradually developed a distinctly "opentaps Way of Coding" to help you do these things. Our goal is to make it easier for you to write your code with IDE's such as Eclipse and maintain your code through future versions of opentaps as they are released.

The opentaps Way follows these principles:

• Write clean object-oriented code
• Support your code with automated tests
• Maintain your code with compile time checking
• Separate your code cleanly versus existing opentaps code base
