erick

I am Erick Engelke, the IT Director for the Faculty of Engineering (Canada’s largest Engineering School) at the University of Waterloo.

In my spare time I am an avid musician, woodworker hobbiest, and always have something on the go.

Over the years I’ve also written roughly ten books, mostly on computer and network programming issues. Some are still in print on Amazon.

Elevate Web Builder

EWB is a Pascal-based IDE/developer environment for writing Web, mobile and embedded applications in HTML5/Javascript. I use it both for work and external projects.

EWB Blog

I maintain a blog about the EWB software. There you will find many tricks and hints how to improve your EWB applications.

There is an errata sheet availble which updates the information for EWB 3.x (Elevate Web Builder Book Erratta)

Nice Toolkit

I currently recommend my Nice Toolkit for those who develop with EWB. It contains many extensions to the EWB product which will light up your Web applications with powerful editors, grids, and many other features I use in my own apps. The link demonstrates most of the features. It comes with a lifetime license and free upgrades, all for $80 US. It also includes a PHP toolkit to allow you to write Unix/Windows server backends for EWB applications. I will consider suggestions for other components.
