OpenID - The comeback

Published on March 24, 2011

In the past, I wrote (with a friend of mine) a simple PHP OpenID provider. We used dorm, and no extra framework whatsoever.

It is now a messy pile of code.

As such, we are rewriting it in a random Ruby web framework. So that we learn something in the process, we’ll be using the following set of technologies:

• Sinatra as the framework,
• DataMapper as the ORM and
• Slim as the templating language.
