Borre Wessel My second presentation at Scotch On the Rocks was Flex Client Architecture & Best Practices. The one topic in the presentation which gained most attention was probably PresentationModels. I would say there is not really any magic to how to use PresentationModels, but it is more down to what kind of logic you put there and how it relates to your services. The PresentationModel pattern is also independent of any framework you would put on top of Flex.

If you have an interest in presentation patterns, I would recommend to look at Paul Williams great presentation pattern blog series. He also has a series covering how to unit test the different patterns, which most developers should find interesting.

Borre Wessel Today I had the first of two presentations I will have at Scotch on the Rocks 2008, todays topic was Modularizing Flex applications - Cairngorm & Modules. It was good to see so many Coldfusion ( and Flex ) developers being interested in how to use Flex modules and Cairngorm.

Tomorrow I will present "Flex Client Architecture & Best Practices", where topics like PresentationModel and unit testing will be covered.

As I also announced on 360|Flex Europe in Milan, Adobe Consulting will over the next few months share some of our best practices in a series of articles. A topic could be for example "Cairngorm and Modules". Steven Webster has posted a call for topics blog post

Borre Wessel Today I'm presenting at RailsConf Europe in Berlin together with Aslak Hellesøy from Bekk Consulting. Todays tutorial is "Using Adobe Flex with Rails", the tutorial is all about how to combine two great tools to quickly develop nice looking and compelling applications. It is really interesting to see what the Rails community is doing with BDD (Behavior-Driven Development), Aslaks second tutorial of the day, and rapid prototyping.

Both Rails and Flex are considered "best in class" when it comes to rapid development, and during todays 3.5 hour session we will show how Flex can integrate with Rails using a REST based back-end.

The presentation can be found here, and the code is on google code

Borre Wessel JavaZone in Oslo, Norway, is the starting point of my little conference "tour".

Today I presented Eliminate Waste in Java Development with Adobe Flex together with Espen Dalløkken from Ezmo at JavaZone in Oslo, Norway. A short outline of the presentation on how to eliminate waste in Rich Internet Applications:

  • Remove your Java MVC; Spring MCV, WebFlow, Struts 2...
  • No MVC, less configuration and no flow configuration on server, your application is data driven, why should the server care about the flow on the client!
  • LCDS, LiveCycle Data Services on top of your existing application, Integrating with Spring, Hibernate, EJB, using one of the LCDS adapters, or using a custom adapter.
  • Streamline handover between design and development teams using Flex/Flash Component kit.
