Chapter 1. Getting Familiar with Redmine

When we are about to try out a new web application, we often look for experts who are familiar with it to ask what they would recommend for use, for example, which database backend, platform, and so on. That's actually what this chapter will also do. It will let you know which options are available and help you understand which of them fit your needs better than others.

The power of Redmine is in its components. Some of them affect performance, while others influence functionality. Such components are the options that are discussed in this chapter. I'm quite sure that even experienced users will discover new options here and may decide to switch to or utilize them. In this chapter, you will also find a quick tour through the Redmine interface. It's going to be short as I believe this interface is easy to learn. Anyway, you'll be able to play with the interface more in the next chapters, where we'll discuss how to install and use Redmine.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • What is Redmine?
  • Walking through the Redmine interface
  • MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or Microsoft SQL Server
  • Textile or Markdown
  • Selecting a Source Control Management (SCM)
  • Selecting a web server and an application server
  • Redmine versions
  • Forks
