Programme
To leave more time for networking, we are going to limit the next event to two presentations:
-
16:30 - Integrating jQuery UI components with Play, Peter Hilton, Lunatech
-
17:15 - break
-
17:30 - technical presetation, Alexander Reelsen, author of Play Framework Cookbook
-
18:15 - drinks, networking
The programme will begin with a presentation of how to integrate jQuery UI widgets in a Play application. User-interface ‘components’ must be important, because when Matt Raible compared JVM web frameworks last December, he gave the Play framework null points for ‘components’. Although it is accurate to say that Play does not have ‘components’, in the sense that Play does not ship with a UI component toolkit/library/framework/whatever, but it also misses the point. This is because Play is designed to make it easy to use whatever client-side JavaScript-based user-interface layer you choose. For this presentation, jQuery UI components are Play UI components.
For the second presentation, Alexander Reelsen is flying over from Munich. This presentation about Play’s internals will look behind the curtain to reveal how some of Play’s magic works. We also hope that Alexander will sign our copies of his excellent book.
As always, beer and networking are an essential part of the programme.
