Stephen Chin has just announced that the slides for the third Silicon Valley JavaFX Users Group have been posted online. This talk was by Hinkmond Wong and therefore covered mobile aspects of Java and JavaFX. As I have done for both Richard’s and Amy’s talks previously, I have also embedded the video below for your enjoyment. You can flick between video and the slides by clicking in the top-right area of the player below.
The next talk coming up is a joint talk with the Silicon Valley Web JUG, covering Java Store and JFrog Artifactory. This is on March 10th at 6:00PM at the Googleplex, and you can find all other relevant details at the link above. Be sure to RSVP if you plan to attend, virtually or in person. Remember that attending virtually allows for you to watch the presentation live, and interact with both the presenter via Google moderator questions, as well as taking part in chat with others attending virtually. So it’s not much worse than being there in person!
MIA: A JavaFX version of this vid, drag and droppable onto the desktop.
At least have it as an option, rather than continue to inadvertently promote Flash…
Dave, nice to see a fellow Kiwi….
Regarding our use of a Flash player – it’s because we’re embedding the Parleys player – the footage is presented by them, presumably at their own expense, and for which we are incredibly greatful. This player is very good and has been developed by the guys behind the Devoxx conference.
And the fact is, just because we’re some of the developers behind JavaFX doesn’t mean we’re part of any holy war against Flash. This video is useful to the JavaFX community, and we’d be doing a disservice to the JavaFX community by not linking to it purely because ‘the video is in the wrong format’. I’m sure you’d agree to this much.
Regardless, thanks for providing your opinions and thoughts – the JavaFX community is all the better for it, and please do keep sharing anything you have on your chest.
Thanks!
