Unleash the Power of REST APIs with Dojo, Engage 2017, May 8-9, 2017

For the first time, I will be attending Engage 2017 in Antwerp, Belgium.  It has been awhile since I have been in Europe and it will be nice to take a few days to visit Amsterdam and Belgium and then see many friends and colleagues at Engage.  Phora Group is a Bronze Sponsor and I will be speaking on my favorite subject, Dojo/MVC/REST. My presentation is entitled "Unleash the Power of REST APIs with Dojo"  I have 22 demos that walks attendees through the process of creating a number of commonly used controllers, implementing data binding and react in Dojo. Then, we will combine all what we have learned with IBM Domino REST services and other open source projects to create a dynamic interface that we would not expect with Domino and Dojo. Theo mentioned that there is still a few available attendee slots left.  So take the opportunity to come to Engage 2017, learn and network.  See everyone soon.

Don't Get Disconnected with Connect

Here is another of my "My Experience in Building Dojo Widgets" post. Dojo.connect (dojo/on) is a versatile and important part of dojo that handle events.  Along with dojo.subscribe and dojo.publish these three features of Dojo provide a powerful set of tools to query the DOM. <div class="widget" id="happy"> <ul> <li id="1"> <a href="#" tabindex="-1"><i class="icon-tools"></i>Hello</a> </li> <li id="2"> <a href="#" tabindex="-1"><i class="icon-tools"></i>Hello</a> </li> <li id="3"> <a href="#" tabindex="-1"><i class="icon-tools"></i>Hello</a> </li> <li id="4"> <a href="#" tabindex="-1"><i class="icon-tools"></i>Hello</a> </li> ...
