HTML5 Dev Conf

Last year I attended the HTML5 Developers Conference in San Francisco. Loved it so much I’m going back this year, but not just as an attendee. I’ll be running two workshops.

Here’s what I’ll be delivering:

• 22nd October 2014 - AngularJS, Firebase and SPAs

We’ll cover the basics of building Single Page Applications with AngularJS (ng-view, routes, templates). Most tutorials use static JSON files as their data source, which gets boring fast. So we’ll use Firebase as the backend instead and learn how to do CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) on key-value data.

• 24th October 2014 - Code Smarter, Get MEAN

The MEAN stack (MongoDB, ExpressJS, AngularJS, Node.js) is great for rapid application scaffolding. We’ll build a fully functioning site that uses a NoSQL document store for the database, a Node.js/Express-based REST API, and an AngularJS frontend to consume the web service.

If either of those workshops sounds useful, come find me in San Francisco. And if you can’t make the workshop, swing by the conference and say hello.
