Upcoming Workshops
For the next few months I will be busy presenting at quite a few workshops. The one thing they all have in common is that they are JavaScript-based. I will teach using JavaScript in the browser, on mobile devices, and deep dive into JavaScript especially directed at those who wish to master the language.

Ionic is an open source, front-end framework for building hybrid mobile apps with HTML5. Using the Ionic framework, you can combine PhoneGap and AngularJS—the hottest web MVC framework around for building fast, testable web applications—to create cross-platform apps using standard web development tools like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Troy Miles introduces you to the Ionic framework and discusses how to use it with AngularJS. Participants will build a simple, full-featured application that offers a great overview of Ionic's key features. You will run the app on the Genymotion Android emulator, so you won't need a smartphone for testing. Learn how to debug the app in two different ways. The first: Run it as a web app and use the tools of the Chrome browser. The second: Run the app on the emulated device and use Chrome's remote debugging capabilities. Leave with the knowledge and tools you need to develop enterprise-ready cross-platform mobile apps with Ionic.

PhoneGap (aka Cordova) is a cross-platform framework for developing mobile apps using standard web development tools like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Join Troy Miles to learn how to create mobile apps with PhoneGap by building a simple but full-featured app during this hands-on class. Troy explores PhoneGap’s important capabilities, including GPS, camera, and audio recordings. Because JavaScript has a reputation as a somewhat difficult language, Troy teaches techniques for keeping your code robust and clean. To give your app the appropriate look and feel for the device on which it is running, the class will use the open source Chocolate Chip UI framework for testing. Troy shares ways to debug the code by running it as a web app, using browser development tools, or as a phone app, using the Chrome browser’s remote debugging features. Leave with the basics you need to start building your own cross-platform mobile apps.

What is the Ionic Framework? The Ionic Framework combines Google's AngularJS with Apache's Cordova to create fast and beautiful cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android. In this talk we will explore Ionic, show how to install it, and finally build a quick and dirty app and deploy it to both iOS and Android.

You will learn in-depth fundamentals of the JavaScript language, going far beyond knowing how to use JavaScript to build web pages. You will master the core concepts in programming with JavaScript including; types, objects and object-oriented programming, patterns for how to design and construct your JavaScript programs, and newer features in the language from the ECMAScript 5.1 and 6 specification. Throughout the course you will learn the nuts and bolts of the JavaScript language that you can use to grow as a professional.
