Make Your App Fast: Web Application Performance

Fast applications have higher conversion rates, better SEO, and happier users. This course is intended for developers who want to know how to think about, plan for, and work with performance optimization for web applications. We’ll cover tools and techniques for making your applications fast in the browser, on the server, and everywhere in between.

Responsive Web Design in Practice

Responsive Web Design is a key set of techniques for dealing with the complexity of delivering websites optimized for the broadening range of connected devices, such as smartphones, tablets and desktop PCs. Built on a foundation of web standards and fluid design principles, RWD gives front end developers the tools they need to tackle the complexities of building modern websites. This two-day workshop will provide you with a practical, working foundation for implementing a responsive website.

Grails: Bouncing Back from Spring

Grails is one of the most powerful and flexible MVC framework available to those of us who love the JVM. In order to get the most out of your app, you need to be aware of all the features available to you . This workshop is intended for back-end developers with an affinity for the JVM, .war files, and rapid development. We start out with the basics, then ramp up to advanced features of the framework, ending with real-world usage patterns to get you and your team up and running.

Building Apps with Heroku

Heroku and other PaaS (Platform as a Service) providers have changed the game when it comes to deploying applications in the cloud. In this workshop, you’ll create, deploy, update, and customize a Heroku-based application as well as how to use Heroku-based applications in real projects and teams.
