Client/Server Apps with HTML5 & Java at OSCON 2012 - No Fluff Just Stuff

Client/Server Apps with HTML5 & Java at OSCON 2012

Posted by: James Ward on July 17, 2012

This Friday at OSCON 2012 I’ll be doing a presentation about Client/Server Apps with HTML5 and Java. Here is the session description:

The web application landscape is rapidly shifting back to a Client/Server architecture. This time around the Client is JavaScript, HTML, and CSS in the browser. The tools and deployment techniques for these types of applications are abundant and fragmented. This session will teach you how to pull together jQuery, LESS, Twitter Bootstrap, and some CoffeeScript to build the Client. The Server could be anything that talks HTTP but this session will use the Play Framework. You will also learn how to deploy Client/Server web apps on the cloud using a Content Delivery Network (Amazon CloudFront) for the Client and a Cloud Application Provider (Heroku) for the Server.

I’ll be around OSCON starting on Wednesday. I’d love to get together with some folks and do some code hacking. Let me know if you’re interested. Hope to see you at OSCON 2012!
