[opencms-dev] Best practices

[Giuseppe Sorce]

Dear Giovanni,

in our projects, when authenticated users have to upload and share files, we 
usually:

- define an OpenCms structured XML content for the file (it contains also 
file metadata like description);
- create a simple web application that use OpenCms API for uploading files 
and creating new content.

Hope this helps,
Giuseppe

Hi,

is there any best-practice (or howto) for building a website where
authenticated users can upload and share files?

It is better to setup the opencms workplace or a webform module or
something other for uploading while sharing with the doccenter module?

Thanks in advance for any info and help
