1 What is Dextar?

Dextar is a collection of PHP libraries. At first it started with the DexMail project, but it was halted since the main developers lacked time. As many started to show interrest in the theme and multilingual functions of DexMail we decided to break it out to it's own library.

Dextar currently only contains the DexGUILib and the remnants of the original DexMail project, although it's likely that DexGUILib will continue to evolve as well as totally new libraries.

The entire point of the Dextar Libraries is to make web application development using PHP easier and more powerful. If you have suggestions on already existing Dextar libraries or ideas on new libraries (perhaps you want to add your own lib to the Dextar collection) just join the Dextar project community on SourceForge Dextar project site.
