Few days ago, my boss start going around the project deadlines, hoping that I’ll submit everything on time.Having a bad experience dealing with IT’s, a guy has been doing dump HTML with few PHP includes for about two years.No wonder, why he was amazed when I told him that all the projects would be finished by the beginning of August.
Keeping these deadlines in mind, the boss started to look for even faster alternative solutions. Well, and he found some.
Today’s working day started from the conversation, whether it’d be useful to buy a ready-made solution for his website, so I’ve decided to take a look at what he’s found:
- Portfolio of 8 sites with “asdf” test data.
- Admin is accessible with “admin/admin” username password combination
- 7 out of 8 sites got partially finished control panels - working only 30% of it. (Data mismatch, no input validations, or JS validation only)
But the site my boss was especially interested in just rocked my heart. Here’s a screenshot:
It’s like: pay first, and you might get this CMS later

That’s why I’m working, because what I’ve learned is just how to learn stuff fast and use it. Concerning the rest of materials they teach us, can be read by myself
