Lab: DurandalJS and Twitter Bootstrap
Join us this Thursday for a great hands-on lab with Jason Clark! In this lab, we’ll focus on getting DurandalJS up and running, we’ll talk about why and when SPAs make sense, we’ll build a custom AMD module, and we’ll do what they say can’t be done and get Durandal 2.0 working correctly with Twitter Bootstrap 3. Be sure to load up your system with your favorite text editor. We might even do most of our work in Sublime Text, but you’ll learn how to use NuGet to get and update your Durandal-based projects in Visual Studio.
If you love KnockoutJS and wish there was something like Angular that used Knockout, you’ll DEFINITELY want to come to this lab to learn how to use a great JavaScript application framework. Bring your laptops and open minds, and I promise by the time you leave, you’ll want to use Durandal in your next project!
