Ok, any other stumbling blocks to think of?

Also, where are your key strengths and weaknesses?

Finally do you want to create something to test the water or improve your skills or would you prefer to try and come up with a business model?

* Nothing that I can think of. Immigration is the biggest hurdle for me to do anything beyond my current job sponsor. * My key strengths are front-end. Javascript, jQuery, CSS * I would like to create something to come up with a business model.

* Sorry for late reply.

Hmmm... One pain point for me is developing with Django there's relatively few starting points for django templates. I don't know if you've ever heard about Ruby on Rails' scaffolding, but Django has 80% of the equivalent in it's generic views. However there's no generic view CRUD templates on the net. I'm sure it's the same for other templating languages as well.

Likewise a decent set of web app HTML, CSS and Jquery templates for dashboards, user interface paradigms to use as a starting point would be useful. I realise every app is different but when you're starting from scratch it's nice to have something to work with, even if it's just that initial iteration. What do you think?

I am aware of the Ruby on Rails' scaffolding, CRUD, DRY and MVC stuff. Matter of fact, I am currently self-learning Ruby on Rails.

Yes, it would be nice to have some template to start with. I have used YUI CSS framework, Reset, etc. to start off applications. I guess that's relevant to templates you are talking about.
