Go Interfaces & Seven5

We haven't had a meetup in a while. How about hanging out this month?

Piotr­ Piasecki and Ian Smith are going to give us talks on Go interfaces and Seven5 (http://seven5.github.io/):

Speaker: Piotr­ Piasecki

This is a brief talk about some use cases for Go interfaces, how to best use them and some mistakes to avoid. The presentation will also introduce the little known but very useful Cover Tool and how, combined with Interfaces, it can help you reach high unit test coverage.

Speaker: Ian Smith

Seven5 is interesting to both Go developers and Javascript developers because it takes the unique position of adopting Go as the language for both the client and server side of a modern web application. The key aspects that I’ll cover in this talk:

• How does the compilation of a Go client-side program work

• How to use Seven5 to expose a rest service (server-side)

• How to use Seven5’s Ajax support to consume a rest service (client side). Think channels!

• How to use Seven5’s attributes and constraints to make dynamic feedback in the browser. No callback spaghetti!

• How to use Seven5’s tree construction tools to build complex web displays on the fly.

Did you miss this little guy at our last meetup? No worries. You have a chance to get one this time :-)
