// OVERVIEW
Join LA Flash as we come back from our short break on Wednesday, October 2oth, for our monthly meeting. We have a few topics going on this month as there is lots to talk about! First we’ll have a quick run down of all the news that has happened over the last couple of months, lots of news in the Flash world! We will have Paul Taylor join us remotely to talk about his lightweight TLF alternative tinyTLF. Powerflasher will join us to talk about their newly released FDT4! And finally, Omar will show how PlugrMan can help you develop AMF APIs for all types of Flash front ends. And, of course, we can’t forget Adobe MAX 2010! We will talk a bit about what is going down at MAX. Thanks to Powerflasher we will be raffling an FDT Pure license!
// Meeting Agenda
- Explore and Experience FDT4 with the Powerflasher Team
- tinyTLF with Paul Taylor
- Developing and Debugging AMF with PlugrMan
- Raffle, Networking
// Explore and Experience FDT4 with the Powerflasher Team
Powerflasher has just released FDT4 and with it has introduced new features that make coding both easier and more fun. For this presentation, we’ll show off some of those new features as well as show some ways of incorporating PlugrMan and tinyTLF into your workflow.
// tinyTLF with Paul Taylor
In this short preso, Paul Taylor will hit the high points of tinytlf, his smallish TLF alternative. tinytlf is built on top of the newest low-level API, the Flash Text Engine. tinytlf renders real HTML and CSS and provides a robust API for decoration, interaction, and text layout.
// Developing and Debugging AMF with PlugrMan
Omar Gonzalez will show how PlugrMan can help easily debug and develop AMF APIs, as well as show off its support for strongly-typed APIs, code generation and automated remote method unit testing features.
// RAFFLE, NETWORKING, AND BEER!
As always, we will host a raffle and networking session. Make sure you can stay until the end, as we will be raffling an FDT4 Pure License and some other stuff!
