"Building WebApps with Tapestry" - 2/22/05 7pm

My business partner, Vladimir Drndarski, will be speaking on Tuesday, Feb 22 at 7pm in the city of Orange on the topic of Building WebApps with Tapestry. This will be at a meeting of the Orange County Delphi Users Group, although the topic has nothing to do with Delphi, per se. OCDUG meetings are free and open to the public.
Here is the official meeting announcement:
This month Vladimir Drndarski of Maxim Software Corp. (www.maximsc.com) will show how to build web applications in Java using the Apache Tapestry framework (a JSP alternative). As a recent convert from Delphi to Java, he'll introduce the topic from the ground up focusing on freely available open source projects that'll get you started quickly and for free. To start, Vladimir will show the Eclipse IDE and compare it to Delphi. He'll then discuss several Eclipse plug-ins that are must haves when working in Tapestry. And finally he'll delve into Tapestry itself. If time permits Vladimir will give an overview of the Hibernate persistence layer and give a quick demo of its use in Maxim Software's latest website, Oovie.com.

Vladimir Drndarski is co-founder of Maxim Software Corp. and the co-creator of Oovie.com (www.Oovie.com) and CollectorStreet.com (www.CollectorStreet.com).

The OCDUG meetings are held at Red Brick Software, 1301 East Lincoln Avenue, Orange, CA 92865. [Directions]
