mikhl Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to make a convincing command line based website. So there would be no graphics and actually no content until the user typed in the neccesary commands. For example, they may type contact and receive contact details. This is only a basic example. If this is possible, how could it be done. Thanks Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266931-command-line-interface-website/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 So I'm guessing this is more a demo/proof of concept than an actual website you want people to visit? Lots of JavaScript. Plus an API (probably REST) to get the information. Also, XKCD's done it.

scootstah Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 The concept is pretty simple - just parse the user input and look for a command, then execute the appropriate action.

Mahngiel Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 reminds me of the old MUD games before the internet relied on graphics. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266931-command-line-interface-website/#findComment-1368677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
