Event Details

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.

Lightning Demos

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.
