Code & Cans Meetup (High performance apps with DoneJS)

Come join us for the first code & cans of 2016. We have Justin Meyer lead author of DoneJS coming to talk about how DoneJS can help build single page applications. You can find the full description and bio for Justin below.

As always craft beer and food will be provided. We will need full names for security and please note this event will not be at our usual venue Braintree, we will be hosting it at the WeWork in Fulton Market.

Description:

This sentence is wasting your time before you get to useful information. How annoying is that? Annoyed is how your users feel if they can’t see their content immediately while too much JavaScript and CSS downloads too slowly.

This talk shows how the recently released (http://blog.bitovi.com/donejs-release/) DoneJS (http://donejs.com/) framework makes it easy to build fast single page applications that are:

server side rendered (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_Server_SideRendered)
progressively loaded (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_ProgressiveLoading)
use content delivery networks (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_DeploytoaCDN)

We will discover how DoneJS solves these problems while building a simple real-time (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_RealTimeConnected) chat application. As a bonus, I will show how to build the chat application to a mobile and desktop application (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_iOS_Android_andDesktopBuilds) so all three versions of the app can chat together. If we have time, I might even turn on worker thread rendering (http://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_WorkerThreadRendering).
