Yesterday, Einar Ingebrigtsen and I had a co-talk at NNUG Vestfold, titled: ”Sugarcoating your front-end, one ViewModel at a time”.
We had a great turn-up and a good Q&A thereafter. I think we got a few people to star thinking slightly differently in regards to how to treat web-pages more like web-apps. We pushed hard on the MVVM pattern and how that conceptually fits the way web, and web-apps work. KnockoutJS certainly is a framework I’m starting to really love, and I’m sure there are other out there ready for it.
NNUG Vestfold Meetup 29. Feburary
Announcing NNUG Vestfold’s first meetup of 2012.
I’m pleased to get started with the first NNUG Vestfold session this year. Last year didn’t really turn out the way I expected, with a total of 1 meeting!
In an ongoing effort to push my comfort zone, I’ve decided to hold a session for this meeting.
After talking to a colleague of mine, my small talk suddenly became a 2-man-show!
In this past year at work, we’ve been in the process of developing a new platform from the bottom up with new functionality. One of the goals was to move away from an old unmaintainable solution to a new maintainable solution based on expected coding standards, and of course to meet the business’ needs about scalability and rapid feature development. With an overloaded domain, responsibilities were mingling with each other and business rules and validation was all over the place.
