This is an amazing bundle. Patrice O'Neal sadly died a few years ago, but his comedy was still hilarious. Maria Bamford is great. Hannibal Buress is probably one of my favorite rising comedians today. The great thing about this bundle

Hopefully the former. It would be difficult to build anything non-trivial with it. However, I suppose you could build a basic counter or key-value system over HTTP with it.

Could you just claim it to be in the public domain?

I agree completely. The geek in me wants to know what they executed on. If I'm an entrepreneur facing the same situation, I'd like to read exactly what others did. Even if it can't help me directly, it gives me some motivation that if other

Why not both? The university I attended, UT Dallas, has a program called the Venture Development Center. Professors can pitch a start-up idea, and if they get accepted, the university donates office space and computers/software/etc. The pro

This is great, I love small hacks like these! I would love to be able to authorize it with my Github account so it can read my contributions to my private repository. All around great work.

Alternatively, I'd never want to work for someone who judged me entirely on some off color humor or silly photos on Facebook.

As long as the QuickBooks WebConnector software can run with your QuickBooks installation, you should be good to go, we're not restricting it to any specific countries.

I don't know yet. There's so many different working parts of QuickBooks it's tough to determine where to prioritize. Some of our initial customers use vendors extensively, so they're a bit higher on the list.

Sure thing! We don't have one yet, and we're hoping to use this initial beta launch to determine best how to launch it.

Right now when you create a new MajorApi QuickBooks Application, it reads in your items and sales reps so they can be references in invoices you create. Then we have a database in the middle of the two because you can't have real time reads

No time logging yet. We focused on what we perceived were the two biggest use cases: customers and invoices. Prioritizing our integrations next, we'll look into time clocking.

We just launched this and I can answer questions if anyone is interested. MajorApi is a RESTful wrapper around QuickBooks. QuickBooks is notoriously difficult to work with. Yes, they do have some REST APIs you can use with their IPP platfor

I have a RESTful Symfony2 bundle that sends an X-Men header with a random X-Person from the comic books: https://github.com/brightmarch/BrightmarchRestfulBundle/blob...

Yup, and none of that is any fun. As a developer, what would you prefer: writing against their giant XSD schemas or just making a POST request to a URL with invoice information? I'll take REST any day of the week.

That's not a bad idea, however the customer wished to use Quickbooks WebConnector because that is what their Quickbooks consulting agency recommended.

I do a lot of freelancing work to build up my small side business. A job I recently took on was to integrate an ecommerce site into Quickbooks using the Quickbooks Web Connector. If you've ever had to use this software, I'm sorry. It is not
