We, web devs make every effort to make the frontend of our sites more web2.0 but module and content edition its a very time consuming task due to unpractical steps
install module
go to module manager
publish and select module position
save
go to frontend and refresh
not happy with results, rinse and repeat
for content item menu publishing
create content
create menu for content item
select content item menu position and publish
save
go to frontend and refresh
not happy with results, rinse and repeat
2 tasks that are so often repeated and no one has thought of a better way to do this
until I found this component AxtaWeb Site Manager (ASM)
I always reject beta products but this thing was very promising and after I tested it, WOW
In a demo benchmark using RaveswoodJoomla Server intranet
I did the already mentioned tasks 10 times using the usual method vs AxtaWeb Site Manager (ASM)
The results were NO-BRAINER
Usual method
10 module publish, preview, reposition, republish, preview (whole process each time)
it took me 5 min
AxtaWeb Site Manager (ASM)
10 module publish, preview, reposition, republish, preview (whole process each time)
it took me almost 2 min
Now for content item (create, menu item, publish, preview, edit, preview, edit menu item)
10 content item (create, menu item, publish, preview, edit, preview, edit menu item) (whole process each time)
it took me 9 min
AxtaWeb Site Manager (ASM)
10 content item (create, menu item, publish, preview, edit, preview, edit menu item) (whole process each time)
it took me 4 min
I personally hate using more than 3 or for extensions, since performance its priority over usability, thinking otherwise leads to site desertion, after using this component I say to myself, "finally I feel like a user of joomla, and enjoy using it"
greets to the devs

Yes, new slides shows are all over the web, believe Ive tried most of them, but what makes FPshowcase better, its tha you can have modules published on tabs on the right side of the slider in less than 39k, got to see it for yourself.
I ve using joomlaprodigy.com extensions for a while, and if something stands as seller fact its his support, its very active and always on time (less than 48h).
at first I tough that the 15$ minumum donation he asks for downloads, was not cheap, but I you check further the mayority of his best extensions are already free, and the ones that require donation, are worth it, as example this one the FrontPage Showcase slider, I asked for it in joomlancers.com and the lowest bid was like for 73$ without the extra tabs.
Its no brainer, I found out they're cheap because he is a surgeon and develops on joomla as a hobby
