Canberra .NET User Group: "Native or Nurtured?" - Paul Usher

More and more, developers are being asked to create applications that provide a unified user experience across multiple platforms and devices. Many developers are at a cross-roads. Do they learn new languages and build native? Do they design web apps? Or is hybrid the way to go? In this talk, Paul will explore what it really means to create a visually stunning, interactive multi-channel application. He’ll demonstrate the DevExpress DXTREME toolset and show how they allow developers to create striking, unified digital experiences across platforms and devices from Windows 8 to the iPad and Android.
