Dive into Node.ACS

In this presentation, Ricardo Alcocer will explain the motivation for using Appcelerator's Node.ACS and demonstrate how to create a Node.ACS application.

Note: Ricardo will be joining us remotely via a video conference.

From Appcelerator's website:

Node.ACS extends Appcelerator Cloud Services by providing the popular Node.JS development framework on the middle-tier. Using Node.ACS, you can implement and deploy server services using JavaScript on the Appcelerator Cloud. You can develop connectors to enterprise data back-ends like Oracle or Salesforce for your entire mobile app portfolio, extend the functionality of prebuilt services provided by Appcelerator Cloud Services (ACS) or simply use any of the 1000’s Node.JS modules published by the developer community.

As usual, we will set aside time during the meeting for members to provide lightning talks (5-10 min), short announcements or requests for assistance which are relevant to the group. Everyone is encouraged to consider providing a lightning talk to show off some cool new creation, a useful tool or technique, etc.

Agenda:

• Organizer Announcements

• Main presentation

• Lightning talks, announcements, call for assistance, etc.
