Re: [Phpgroupware-developers] Adding a new app.

[Jason Wies]

Depends on your app and how familiar you are with phpGW and it's parts.

Making it appear in phpGW: minutes - 2 hours
Switch to database class: minutes - 1 hour
Switch authentication: < 1 hour
Switch to templates: hours to days (depends on if you think as ass backward as 
the template authors :)
phpGroupWare integration: priceless

Really though, any app, now matter how badly written, can be made to _work_ 
inside phpGW in a couple of hours.  To make the app really integrated 
(phpGroupWare Certified (tm)(c)(r)) takes much longer, but isn't necessary to 
have it work.  It is necessary if you plan on distributing it, or want it to 
pervade through new releases, and in any case it makes future development much 
nicer and more productive.
