I'm completely new to this framework and I'm trying to find some sample CRUD application to get started with Kohana 3.
There is a tutorial and information in the unofficial Kohana 3 Wiki (http://kerkness.ca/wiki/doku.php), but even there, there are some aspects that are not covered (the model, validation, etc).
You might find the example code hosted on shadowhand's github repo useful. It provides the code for a complete website and there are other projects for Kohana3 hosted on github that you should be able to locate without too much trouble that you might find useful.

scikit-learn is a very well organized website and is a neat way to document source code. Are the webpages automatically-generated? Is there a framework which produces these pages?
Learning which framework has been used can help me document other similar repositories that I own.
They are using sphinx and probably some extensions like sphinx-gallery.
This is indicated here.
I have a client that wanted an easier way for his team members to build/update pages on their site, their site is heavily customized with a lot of JavaScript. The issues is that when a team member wanted to add a new section to the page they had consult a dev person to hard code in the desired features. So we decided to create customizable web parts of those features making the site more self-serviceable.
When I first started I found some documentation that said to use visual studios to build the web part using sandbox code, upload it to the site and then they would just need to activate it to deploy it on the site. Buuut unbeknownst to me code based sandbox solutions are no longer supported in Sharepoint and therefore the web parts we built could not be deployed. I was then told that I needed to build it as an Add-in, but as I started building the add-ins I found that the customizable field properties (i.e. ability to change background color, text style/color and banner color) that I want are not implementable as a add-ins.
So now I’m back at square one and I don’t know if it’s even possible to build a web part as a add-in or do I need to go a different route?
Any thoughts or links to sources you can provide would be HUGELY appreciated!
Thanks

In SharePoint 2016 things have changed a lot from the traditional model which was the classic way of building web parts. The way you worked before is called "classic", the new way is called "modern", and the way to get your dev environment is the following (brace yourself, it is a long answer):
1) In SP2016/Online you will need to configure your dev machine with the following environment, installing the following:
NodeJS Long Term Support version
Yeoman (which will be used to create web parts)
GULP (which will play the role of virtual web server)
Once the three components above are installed, you will install the Yeoman SharePoint Generator to create the SharePoint Web Parts, Yeoman simplifies the process of creating things by delivering templates ready to use and making all the configurations standard, you gonna love this guy!
To configure your machine see the following link:
https://dev.office.com/sharepoint/docs/spfx/set-up-your-development-environment
2) In SP2016/SP Online, you will develop for SPFx (SharePoint Framework), Microsoft has made significant efforts to address the changes and help developers to embark on this new journey by publishing training and educational material at GitHub, YouTube, and on its official website (I will add link below), but for the purpose of helping you, please follow this tutorial, it helped me to learn how to develop Modern Web Parts for SP 2016/Online:
https://dev.office.com/sharepoint/docs/spfx/web-parts/get-started/build-a-hello-world-web-part
3) From the tutorial above, you will get a fully functional Modern Web Part that can be deployed to SP2016/Online, you will see the new modern architecture allows you that old experience of "sandboxing" web parts in a faster way without, thus solving your problem of constant updating/refactoring components in a live production environment. This way now allows you to constantly update the code and see the results in real-time , you will be able to see results on your dev environment by calling: https://localhost:4321/temp/workbench.html and at same time on your SP environment. for example: http://portal.company.com/_layouts/workbench.aspx

VS2013 update 5, MVC5 using Areas
I have a stand-alone function programmed for a website. The functionality is a specific user interface to collect survey responses in a particular way. It has several controllers, a model and a group of views. The functionality is completely contained in an Area of the project, except for the Shared _Layout file that provides the main menu for consistency.
'Is it possible for me to' / 'how do I' compile this Area into a single or set of .dll file(s) that I could then add conveniently to other websites? I'm assuming creating something for transfer/download is very standard functionality. For example, I used Elmah.MVC for this site. What I want to do is pretty much create a package that can be downloaded in a similar way to how we integrate Elmah.MVC into a site. (Be certain I'm not talking about creating error logging software, I'm only using Elmah.MVC as an example of software that is easily integrated into other website applications.)
I've never compiled any website functionality into a .dll(s) for use elsewhere and would appreciate either some specific guidance, or perhaps what would be easier is to provide a link with a good step by step tutorial or explanation for how to do this. Most of what I've found on the web describes bits and pieces of doing this, but it's not enough for me to feel confident with it.
It seems to me there are a lot of 'moving parts' to taking a particular piece of an MVC application and turning it into something that is easily added to other projects.
A particular issue I don't quite grasp is the difference in downloaded packages between getting code and getting just the .dll(s). For instance, when I download an MVC5 site, I get controllers, models and views, but when I download Elmah I get a .dll and no code files. Also, I do understand the concept of transforms, but I'm just struggling right now with even getting from my programmed application into a 'package' regardless of the transforms that make it easy to integrate into another website.
These are just some of my questions I have about how to perform this particular process in developing deliverable and/or shareable software.
What you are looking to do is create a portable MVC Area project. A Portable Area is a set of reusable multi page functionality can be dropped into an application to provide rich functionality without having to custom build functionality that is literally the same in every application. An MVC Portable Area is really just a dll that contains the views, controllers, scripts, etc… needed to use in a website that is either a Web Forms website or an MVC website. A developer can use them for a reusable widget or a complete engine. I have actually used them for both. Here is a link with some basic info to get started. http://elegantcode.com/2012/04/06/mvc-portable-areas/
I am planning to write a yesod web application. And I'm wondering whether there are some large project using yesod that is well designed that I could look at and experiment with.
I am looking for open source projects. I can learn from.
I've been developing a web application that focuses on media sharing mainly inside home network, and acted as a excercise for me.
This was the first project for me using Yesod, and in fact the first larger project written in Haskell, but maybe there is something to learn from it.
There's stuff like reused widgets, custom sql queries (could probably use esquelato nowadays), hashdb authentication/access control and plugin-like sections-thingy for handling different types of files in share.
Disclaimer: This is my personal project developed purely for my needs, and I have not had the time to upgrade the code base for Yesod 1.2 nor do I consider it stable or well-designed.
The source code: https://github.com/SimSaladin/rnfssp
An in-production demo can be found at https://ssdesk.paivola.fi
As an update for this answer there is now a page of these on the Yesod wiki, including the source for my own site.
I got the week off from work to learn servicestack and I am in awe of its simplicity, power, and speed.
I am a pluralsight subscriber and I am going through the Jon Somnez course which is great and as far as I can tell is using the new service stack api.
However, the examples in the pluralsight course are extremely simple and as such I am looking for a working example THAT USES the new API. I see that the wiki is up to date and that is very helpful...but I was hoping to find a working implementation that uses the new API and it seems that all of the examples I have downloaded or browsed are using the old API.
IS there a new working example/implementation (vs solution and projects.) that uses the new API yet?
If I can sneak in another question. Is there a recommendation (hopefully in the example project you can point me to) that explains a best practice for structuring your servicestack API project. (DTOs in a folder, services in a folder, response objects in a folder ??)
Thanks.
Update: ServiceStack Live Demo's and Examples are now being published on LiveDemos GitHub Project.
Most of the examples in ServiceStack.Examples has switched over to use the New API and are mostly available to demo on the servicestack.net homepage.
ServiceStack.UseCases contain a number of small single-purposed applications that are focused on how to enable specific features for different use-cases.
The SocialBootstrap API deployed at bootstrapapi.apphb.com is an example of an MVC and ServiceStack website together making with all the available authentication options together.
The Razor Rockstars is an example of a stand-alone ServiceStack application that demonstrates its website and HTML capabilities showing how you can add razor and markdown views to existing services to create a website that enhances existing services. There are 3 versions of Razor Rockstars available:
An ASP.NET Host
A Stand-alone Self-hosted using HttpListener
A Windows Service
Another website that's similar in spirit to Razor Rockstars is the Nortwind Database editor which demonstrates how you can enable a full-featured server-side HTML website to enhance your existing services. It includes a full-writeup of how he developed it and its capabilities on the accompanying blog post.
