I *really* wanted to attend Devoxx 2008, and would have loved to have seen the Tech Talk on JavaFX SDK 1.0 by Richard Bair, Martin Brehovsky and Jasper Potts. These three are brilliant JavaFX engineers whose main focus is graphics, effects and animation. The talk that they gave provides a jump start on JavaFX and then concentrates on their areas of expertise, building a cool graphical demo in the process.
Note: Although Jasper played a big role in preparing the presentation, only Richard and Martin gave the talk, because Jasper had been up most of the night, reportedly "working on another demo for Devoxx." ;-)
Thanks and congratulations to Richard, Martin and Jasper for these great resources!
Regards,
Jim Weaver
P.S. Jasper really was working on a demo, screenshot shown below, that you you can learn more about here.
"I did co-present the talk on the University day as a 3 hour version. That one is not available yet on Parleys.com but should be soon. Same content just goes into more depth that the longer time allows."
Jasper,
I look forward to seeing the University session, and hope that you will alert us on your blog.
Thanks,
Jim Weaver
