Experts! I proposed to teach a tutorial on qooxdoo at LISA'09 (November) ... and they accepted. It will be a half day tutorial. Once I come up with a program I will post it here to get your feedback ...
cheers tobi T11pm ----- Writing JavaScript Applications Running in the Browser with Qooxdoo Tobias Oetiker, Consultant and author of RRDTool THIS IS A NEW WRITEUP Who should attend: ------------------ People with a good grasp of programming who would like to put the fun back into writing web applications with fully interactive interfaces. Imagine writing a web application where the server part is only a few lines of Perl or PHP code, essentially grabbing data off your database without having to care about presentation or the frontend in general. The fully interactive frontend runs completely in the browser (FF/IE/Opera/Safari) and just calls upon the server to pull or submit data. Much like it used to be in classical client server applications. Until recently in the AJAX world, writing JavaScript has been a necessary evil, and most frameworks try to shield the users from that experience by providing means of coding in other languages and creating the necessary JavaScript on the fly. The Qooxdoo Framework takes a radically different aproach. It enhances JavaScript with a Qt inspired Object Oriented Programming Model which does away with most of the tedious aspects of JavaScript. Coupled with a fast, themeable cross-browser widget set, it provides a powerful and pleasant programming environment. In this half day workshop I will pass on the experience I gained over the last year writing Qooxdoo applications from scratch, as well as integrating Qooxdoo elements in SmokePing (oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping). Topics ------ I will cover the following topics: - Setting up a Qooxdoo programming environment on your laptop - Building a Qooxdoo Hello World application - Talking to the server - Creating your own widgets - Writing new and complex widgets - Code walkthrough of a real-world Qooxdoo application -- Tobi Oetiker, OETIKER+PARTNER AG, Aarweg 15 CH-4600 Olten, Switzerland http://it.oetiker.ch [EMAIL PROTECTED] ++41 62 775 9902 / sb: -9900 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
