Cascades Development

[laclekim]

Hello all,

I recently finished my first cascades app, and now I want to build upon it to have a more feature rich app that I can then sell for a reasonable price. My question however is how can I manage the code base for both apps. Does any one have any "best practices" I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Are you using a revision control system? That should be a prerequisite...

How different will the two versions of the app be?

Generally if you've got two versions which differ only in terms of having a handful of features that are disabled in the free version, you would use exactly the same code base. You could even just make it so the packaging (build command) was the only difference, for example by adding an environment variable into one of them which would be checked at startup to enable/disable the paid features.
