With a new generation of high-powered browsers, like Chrome, it is possible to deliver native applications on the web that look and feel like the desktop. SproutCore is a new JavaScript framework that makes it easy to harness this power in your own software. It currently powers the desktop-like web applications at Apple's MobileMe service among many others.
During this talk, we will show you how to use the Cocoa-inspired SproutCore framework along with Google App Engine and Chrome to deliver a desktop-like experience on the web.
During the networking hour, we invite our members that develop applications using Google Technology to do brief demos of 5 minutes or less. Please contact Van Riper to indicate your interest to demo your stuff. Time permitting, we will include as many demos as possible before the main event.
Although this is a free event, we will be limiting attendance to a maximum of 200 attendees. For last minute updates on this event, please refer to the main meeting announcement on the Silicon Valley GTUG site. This meeting is co-sponsored by the SproutCore Founders Meetup.
Charles Jolley is the creator of SproutCore, co-author of an upcoming SproutCore book, and the chief architect behind some of the largest applications currently using the framework. His company, Sproutit, offers a hosted help-desk product that was the first SproutCore-based application on the market. He currently lives in downtown San Jose with his new wife.
Ryan Barrett is Lead Engineer on the Google App Engine datastore, a large-scale, distributed structured storage system used by App Engine and other Google products.
We would like to thank Google for providing the venue and the refreshments for this meeting. In particular, we would like to thank Stephanie Liu for serving as our primary meeting support contact at Google.
