This workshop is an introduction to Backbone.js, a popular front-end javascript library for creating dynamic, interactive web interfaces. It will be co-taught by Pamela Fox and Brenda Jin, and will include lunch.
We'll cover Backbone.JS Models, Views, Events, and CRUD, with hands-on exercises throughout. As a prerequisite, you should feel comfortable with JavaScript/jQuery and hopefully have attended our JS MVC/OO workshops.
If you're interested in helping out as a teaching assistant, please let us know.
Many thanks to our sponsor Adobe for the wonderful space.
If you'd like to attend but cannot afford the cost, please request a GDI scholarship.
Please note that we cannot issue refunds, since there's an overhead to issuing refunds via Meetup.com and we already offer the workshops at such a low-cost. We put proceeds into the chapter fund, which we use as our scholarship fund.
