Dear Antonio,
first of all, I would like to wish you a happy and successful start to the new year.
Before posting any concrete examples, I would like to ask a short question about the intended scope of this forum.
It is clear that a lot has changed recently. AI-driven development has increased the importance of standard architectures, common tooling, and widely used integration patterns.
At the moment, the focus here seems to be mainly on HIX, while mod_harbour itself is less in the foreground. That is understandable and reflects current activity.
My question is not about judging any approach. My concern is about openness.
From personal experience, I believe Harbour benefits when different architectural ideas can be discussed openly. In the past, narrowing discussions too early sometimes led to fragmentation and incompatible paths later on.
Especially today, it may be useful to also allow discussion of Harbour-based approaches that integrate with standard web technologies — for example using PHP or other thin web layers in front of Harbour microservices.
So my question is simply:
Is this forum intended to focus exclusively on mod_harbour / HIX, or is there room to discuss other Harbour-related web architectures as well?
If the scope is meant to be narrow, that is perfectly fine. I just want to understand it clearly and respect the forum’s direction.
Best regards, Otto
