Introduction to Web Game Dev w/Sean Hornsby + Apps w/ Done.js w/Chasen LeHara

Hey JavaScriptLA fans, our next meetup is upon us!

On this event you'll learn about not one, but two fun tools. We'll learn for Game Development for the Web, presented by Sean Hornsby (@sphornsby). As a second topic, We have Chasen Le Hara who will be talking about compiling High performance Apps with DoneJS and how this framework can help speed up performance.

Sean will be presenting an introduction of Game Development for the Web. He will cover core concepts, the basics of Phaser.io, and a demo on recreating the classics.

Building games is fun, and it teaches valuable skill that you can apply in all aspects of coding. Come and learn how to build a game for the web in under an hour.

=======================================================================

DoneJS is an open source JavaScript framework that makes it easy to build high performance, real-time web and mobile applications. It is used to make beautiful, real-time user interfaces that can be exported to run on every platform.

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 DoneJS (https://donejs.com/) framework makes it easy to build fast single page applications that are:

• server-side rendered

• progressively loaded

• use content delivery networks

We will discover how DoneJS solves these problems while building a simple [real-time] (https://donejs.com/Features.html#section=section_RealTimeConnected) chat application.

As a bonus, Chasen will show you how to build the chat application to a mobile and desktop application so all three versions of the app can chat together.
