Rivety is a fork of the Communit.as open source social networking software platform which is no longer supported or available.

This system takes the Zend Framework to a place where it can be very quickly deployed as a website and customized to become anything you need it to be. The Zend Framework is great, but this gives you a huge development boost.

The following frameworks form the foundation for Rivety:

• Zend Framework
• Smarty (template parsing library)
• Asido (image manipulation library with plugins)
• jQuery
• jQuery UI

Rivety takes the following features of Zend Framework and puts them at your fingertips:

• Forms authentication
• Set up users and roles
• Sessions stored in a database

Template rendering (Smarty tpls)

• Module Generator
• CRUD-ifier - introspects a database table and automatically creates a model and forms to manage the data in that table (similar to Rails scaffolding).
