You can't get away from JavaScript these days, can you? It's running on back-end servers, on mobile devices, desktop apps, embedded devices and of course is ubiquitous on the web. Speaking of ubiquity, Android has grown in leaps and bounds over the past year or two. Despite being plagued by issues such as fragmentation, it is a force to reckon with.
On Saturday, 8 September, we're bringing together four great speakers at the Startup Centre in Chennai to talk about these and other topics. Mani Doraisamy will talk about how an unassuming browser scripting language now powers servers, phones and rich applications on the web and desktop. Siddharta Govindaraj will talk about building rich applications for the web using JavaScript. On the Android front, Aravind Krishnaswamy will take us to the frontiers of mobile technology to show us how far we've come. Isaac Wesley will end the morning with a talk on Constructive Design for Android, encouraging us to think of design as "communication" and not "decoration." These talks are open to all, and will be held at the Startup Centre, S-4, Alsa Mall, #45, Montieth Road, Egmore, Chennai from 10am to 1pm.
