Oqtane Philosophy

Most products are created with some core principles in mind. These principles provide a central theme for all major product decisions. The theme behind DNN was extensibility, and as a result almost every core feature was developed in a manner which could be enhanced, extended or overridden. The theme for Oqtane also includes extensibility but places a much greater emphasis on "speed", which is highlighted by the Oqtane brand name whose root word "octane" is a standard measure of the performance of engine fuel. Speed is a general attribute and for a framework like Oqtane it needs to encompass a wide variety of characteristics such as the speed of installation, familiarization, development, deployment, and interaction with the product.
