Thoughts on agile software development
As a developer, I work with the IntelliJ IDEA development environment, as do many other developers. I don’t want to discuss its many advantages for developers here, but rather how to use Playfair with the AsciiDoc plugin.
You may have noticed that the Playfair project started with the JFreeSVG library and has now switched to the EchoSVG library. Both libraries have their advantages and disadvantages, but JFreeSVG’s GPL 3.0 license in particular makes working with it difficult in many projects, often even impossible. With the next version 0.7.0, Playfair will switch to the Apache 2.0 license. This would be a little too little content for a blog post, so let’s take a look at one of EchoSVG’s weaknesses.
