Yesterday, I gave a talk on FlexJS at the HTML5 Dev Conf at San Francisco [1]. HTML5Devconf, in their own words, is the largest gathering of technical software developers, designers and decision makers in the world focused on Internet software technologies such as JavaScript, HTML5, CSS, node.js and other cross platform web, mobile and server technologies.
In my talk, I gave an overview of FlexJS including the motivations, goals and the architectural design decisions behind it. I also showed three demos (Stock Quote, Google Maps and Charts) along with their respective code walkthroughs. The demos highlighted various features of FlexJS including Data Binding, States, WebServices, UI Components, Third party library integration, the Graphics APIs, the concept of Strands and Beads, rendering fidelity between the Flash and HTML/JS versions, etc. The Charts demo worked quite well on my iPad as well! Overall, I thought the talk was well received. I believe that introducing FlexJS to this group of developers will have a significant impact on its adoption. I have shared the slides from my presentation here [2][3] Please share and retweet. Also, feel free to use this presentation in your own talks in the future. Post your comments/thoughts here on this list. If you know of any other similar conferences, please post details.
