Session: Sproutcore

Wednesday, 11:10 - 12:00
Track: Web

Building web applications with traditional web development techniques is painful. Making sure your HTML is always up-to-date is challenging, and swapping information back and forth with your server can be error-prone.There is a better way. SproutCore's robust bindings system allows you to create data-centric applications. Just describe the state of your application and how the data flows from your models to your views and let SproutCore do the rest.Semantic templates allow you to write HTML and CSS that update automatically when your models change—like magic. And an in-memory database lets you intelligently manage and query your data and synchronize with your server.SproutCore will change the way you think about building applications and surprise you with how little code you have to write.
