Developer Conference 8-12 Nov 2010, Malmö, Sweden
Track overview
Tuesday: NoSQL Day
Track: Web development
The web is undergoing one of its biggest transformations ever. No longer is the web a place for static information, but the place for your advanced applications, a place to find computation resources, a place where you meet your friends and collegues. Also, the web is no longer something for your computer alone. The web is everything, from a smart power meter to your TV set. Join us in this track to explore the possibilities of today and tomorrow together with some of the most prominent experts in fields like HTML5, Javascript, Social media, web based testing and more.

Javascript, the Language of the Web
Javascript is one of the worlds most used programming languages. Yet, most programmers dislike it and it is treated like a second class citizen. The Javascript language has a reputation of being an ugly programming language and to some extent rightfully so, but under the ugly surface is a beautiful programming language with lambdas and closures. In this tutorial you will learn to use Javascript, functional programming techniques, and some useful libraries.

A Fast Pace into Rails 3
In this workshop, José Valim will give a fast introduction to Rails 3 discussing some of the new features. He will also exhibit a few open source projects (including a few open source projects from PlataformaTec, his company) and show how Rails 3 modularity allows them to extend your application in a clean and customizable way.
José Valim
José is the lead-developer and co-founder of Plataforma Tec and a member of the Rails Core Team. He started working with Ruby and Rails in late 2006 and he began contributing actively to Rails during his Google Summer of Code 2009 project, leading him to be invited to be part of the Rails Core Team a few months later. Some say that it is his eureka time to code and bring new open-source projects to life.
