Added by Nezar Ab over 10 years ago
Hi,
Suppose that i have live web application written in Wt. Now if i wanted to add new features, should i compile the whole application on the server ? is there a standard approach to this problem ?
thanks.

You could compile the application on the server if you want. That's probably the easiest way to do it.
I would recommend setting up a VM on your development machine which is set up the same way as your server, compile the code locally and upload the binaries.
That way, when you want to update your application, your server does not need to be under heavy stress (compilation) causing it to slow down for users.
Additionally, if your server is compromised, your source code is not.
