Welcome to Ferenc Veres' personal website
On this website you can find details of my software projects and articles on various computer related topics.
About me
As the CTO of WPSnet International, I manage the development of the WPS Web Publishing System. This is a user friendly CMS, sold as hosted solution worldwide.
Free Software
I participate in Free Software development by promoting, translating, testing software, reporting problems or ideas, submitting patches and by helping other users. I release my programs under free software license.
Free Software are licensed under terms which allow users to use the software for any purpose, study how it works and adopt it to their needs (source code is provided), copy and distribute the software, and distribute their modified versions.
Web standards
I use the web standards in my projects. Besides standards compliance I am interested in usability and accessibilty research too. I write articles about web programming.
Xaraya
Xaraya is a free software CMS. I maintain the Hungarian portal and translation of the system and create websites based on Xaraya.Commodore 64
Many years ago, I was an active coder on the C64 demoscene, under nickname Lion (CSDB), member of groups: Chaos, Chromance, Resource and Kempelen. I write some articles and programs related to C64 and IDE64. This site contains a huge collection of Commodore related books and magazines (Hungarian).
