Join us for our first MeetUp:

So many technologies, so little time

Choosing technologies and Tools

Are you thinking of migrating an application from the desktop to the web?  Are you wondering if you can reuse most of your existing code?  Are you not sure what technologies and vendor tools to use?  Well you’re not alone.  We are in the beginning stages of doing it ourselves. We have a goal to migrate one of our strategic applications from the desktop to the web over the next 2+ years and we want to share our highs and lows (and maybe some anxiety along the way) with you as we travel this journey.  Come join us in our technology Therapy sessions. 

Our first (therapy) session: “So many technologies, so little time”. 

• HTML 5 (what happened to 4, 3, 2, and 1? ) 
• AJAX (are we cleaning Windows?) 
• Compass,CSS (be stylish, modern, have 3.) 
• JavaScript/Coffee Script (I can’t start my day without coffee) 
• Ruby on Rails, PHP/Python (I hate snakes) 
• Java (isn’t that an island in the South Pacific?) 
• .NET MVC (Most Valuable Customer?) 
• Backbone.js, KnockoutJS (knock out? Are we boxing during this session?) 
• ExtJS, YUI, Dojo, KendoUI (is this a martial arts demo?) 
• JQuery, Node.js (I’m running out of things to say) 
• JSON (are we missing an “a” in Jason name?) 
• RESTful (I’m getting tired, can I rest now?) 
• Mobile (I have an app for that) 
• FLASH (Really? Aren’t we done flexing our Air Muscles?) 
• And more

We can’t decide for you but we can share our thoughts on what we decided.

Join us on September 13 @ 6pm as we start our journey to migrate a desktop application to the web.  RSVP on MeetUp: http://www.meetup.com/Desktop-to-Web
