Just a quick follow up to our last meeting. Extra big thanks to Greg, Holly and Christophe for coming out! We had standing room only on campus (60+) and the online Connect room maxed out at about 36 people. Great turn out for a great meeting. For those of you on the Connect session I don’t have to point out that we had a few audio glitches here and there. We’re in the process of pulling the actual video footage that was shot and we’ll see what we can pull together between it and the archived Connect session. (Note to self: Just go buy a few more audio cables, connectors, etc to avoid this in the future).

There were a lot of open source projects thrown out during the presentations. I thought I’d put together a list of links of the ones I remember being brought up:

Great meeting. Thanks for coming out. We’ll post our next meeting in the next few days

Announcing a new Meetup for The Online ColdFusion Meetup!

What: “Using Backbone.js to Build Lightning Fast Mobile&Desktop Apps”, w/ James Brown

Our 6pm (US ET) talk on Thursday May 19 will be “Using Backbone.js to Build Lightning Fast Mobile & Desktop Applications”, with James Brown.

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

We all are familiar with the numerous MVC frameworks available for ColdFusion but what about conventions for your JavaScript code?  A project’s JavaScript code can get out of hand and become unorganized very quickly.  Fortunately, we have tools like Backbone.js to give structure and MVC to our web applications.

In this session, we’ll look at how to use Backbone.js to populate and save models, utilize and re-use views, properly use pub/sub, include jQuery templates, interface with 3rd party APIs and build mobile applications.  We’ll also look at lots of code and examples.  Backbone.js will change the way you develop and architect your web applications; you aren’t going to want to miss this presentation.
