Flex Connect Sessions

October 3rd, 2008

For the next four weeks, I will be conducting a series of four Adobe Connect sessions through Columbus Digital, Columbus’ Official Adobe User Group. These sessions will focus not on ActionScript or Flex Development itself, but rather on ancillary skills and tools important to Application Architects and Developers who want to get into serious Flex application development.

The topics will be as follows:

• October 5th- Flex and Subversion
• October 12th- MVC Frameworks and Cairngorm
• October 19th- Unit Testing with FlexUnit
• October 26th- Automating Application Compilation and Deployment with Ant

Each of these sessions will be hosted via Adobe Acrobat Connect, and will begin at 8PM EST. Given the complex nature of some of these topics, there will be no end time set. Furthermore, these sessions will also be recorded, so if you can’t make it you’ll be able to review them whenever you feel like, and I will post links here when they are complete.

Links, preparatory sample code and prerequisites will be provided via the meeting room itself. The presentation platform will be Windows XP and Eclipse, with many apologies to my fellow Mac users. The reason is that certain shortcut methods I would use on OSX are simply not available on Windows without some serious wrangling, so I will prepare my system for that environment and make sure to go over the OSX commands while I’m there.

If you’re interested in attending, contact me directly and I’d be happy to send you a link.
