I am a husband and a father. I am a ColdFusion, Flex and AIR developer (this is what this blog will be mainly about). I am also a squash player and a political junkie. I love cooking, making/ fixing/breaking things, and I try to travel whenever I can.
Session will include a brief introduction to AIR and a general architecture of an AIR applications. Then, different ways of leveraging the power of CF as your application's data provider, including web services, flash remoting, Ajax and JSON.
In this talk, we will discuss some of the desktop capabilities in AIR, such as creating native windows, using drag and drop and accessing the file system.
There has been a lot of buzz recently about CouchDB, but what is it? How do you use it? And can it replace or complement your existing RDBMS?
This session will introduce you to the NoSQL movement and discuss when and why you should consider it. We will discuss CouchDB from the
installation process to getting the data and displaying it in your Flex application. In the end I will demo how to connect your flex app to couchdb.
