Wellington Adobe Web Technology Meetup: May meeting - RIA development with ExtJS and Sencha Touch

[Kai Koenig]

Hey all,

(and sorry for the cross-posting to the WCSUG list)

just wanted (very early) announce our May meeting:

Wellington Adobe Web Technology Meetup

-----------------------------------------------------------

May 1, 2012 - 2pm - 6pm

RIA development with ExtJS and Sencha Touch

The game of building Rich Internet Application has significantly
changed over the last few months. The role of the Flash Player
is changing and the world seems to be finally moving to
HTML5/JS/CSS for RIA development.

But how to even get started? Looking for the next steps after Flex,
Flash or even after years of only doing jQuery?

Sencha has desktop and mobile frameworks that can give you a
smooth migration to HTML5 application development.

Ted Patrick, Sencha's Director of Development relations from San
Francisco, will walk you through Sencha's frameworks for building
mobile and desktop applications using web technologies 

including HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS.

We will cover the frameworks' foundation (OOP+MVC), standard
libraries, containers, components, xtype rendering and most
importantly cross-browser support.

Bring an open mind and a laptop, we will be building applications
from scratch; feel free to follow along.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This meetup is a HALF-DAY, HANDS-ON 

CODING and DESIGNING training starting at 2pm and finishing at 

6pm.

Please be aware of that and bring a laptop with your preferred
HTML/CSS/JS tooling - you'll have much more fun that way :)
