 Next month we are doing a mental javascript October 19th and 20th, it's called JS food Probably going to have about, between somewhere between 500 and 700 people will be there All javascript programmers talking about nothing but javascript, for 2 days On November 2nd and 3rd, we start calling, that's India's biggest android conference So anyone who has any interest in android development, that's a place to be I think we should be somewhere between 800,000 people for that even though On December we are doing one call-pay station, this is about payment gateways How you can do online commerce, sitting in India, what issues are required What technology is required, what regulatory frameworks are required And what the issues is the current state of the market is and so forth That's December 8th All of them are familiar and all of them are on the website So you can go to sce.com, you'll see the list of upcoming events over there So this is, we essentially do this, and apart from this, we also do a number of smaller events Some of our conferences are like, JS food this year was also in Chennai on February 18th It was at the IIT Middlesex Park this year And there's also a co-unification, and the smaller events that we do today For instance, are after events, so these are smaller events They don't cost to not organize, they are completely free And people like Mani, who is clearly an expert in his domain He was a speaker after Mani, who again talked about different things Sikata is not here yet, his second speaker is coming in There's Isaac Leslie, and there is Arvind Krishnaswamy Arvind, I'm sorry, runs a company in Banyur called the Vita, they make mobile apps So Arvind works with both IOS and Android, and he's very good at understanding what the Corporate identity and the differences between these two platforms are And how do you work with this versus that? Arvind is also the program chair for DroidCon So anybody who's speaking at DroidCon essentially is going through Arvind for checking the regular session, he's more than speaking at any event or not So Arvind leads the program committee, EA and a couple of others from the Pragyo and Android are the ones who are helping people come to speak at the event and making sure that the entire event's content is harmonious in the sense that it flows properly from one session to the next and it's designed keeping in mind what someone will be thinking of in the company event whether they're coming as a beginner or an intermediate developer or an advanced server Isaac is an expert on Android user interfaces So Isaac's talk today is not about programming, it's about how to make the user interface that is actually usable A lot of times we end up making user interfaces on the basis of constraints on technology that you design the database model in a certain way that we design the user interface to match the database model That's a typical mistake that we make as developers So Isaac is going to bring in the perspective of how to think about it from a user's end and say think about how the user interface should work and then think about how to make your technology match what the user interface requires So that's going to be the session This is the city of Kapri called Simmerscribe Software They make developer tools So Siddhi and I have known each other for 10 years and he's been a fairly strong Python programmer that's fairly happy to know each other He's also been well known as a gamer So Siddhi is famous for being a touring gamer He goes to different cities to play computer games with other people and essentially see who's the better person to play computer games So he's been famous for that in his past Now he's more famous in being a very good programmer He's pretty good with both Python and JavaScript and today's session is talking about some aspects of JavaScript I think he's talking about project management Which application? Yeah, how to build something that is more JavaScript heavy than back-end heavy So one of the trends that we've been seeing in software development over the last few years is more and more pieces of application are moving completely into the web Particularly into the browser itself Because earlier what you would use, or Windows you would use ASP, ASP.NET or whatever else has been popular Sometimes even VB.NET, there are actually no benefits Sorry, no benefits that you might give me But ASP.NET has been the mainstay for someone working on Windows On Linux it's been VHP, ISK, the LAN combination And then for a while we had a lot of interest in Python for a lot of interest in Ruby and now suddenly there's a lot of interest in JavaScript So part of it is technology waves As technology matures, the excitement level about it goes far beyond what the actual capabilities are That's a win-win phenomenon But what's particularly interesting about what's happening with the JavaScript wave is it's also what the client side uses On your browser you have no choice but to use JavaScript On the server side if you use JavaScript you're suddenly sharing the same code of the server and the client which means you can push computation into the client side And say instead of doing something that's processor intensive on the server side just send the code to the browser and get it done on that side And as long as you can make sure that your data integrity is kept you're essentially improving the performance on your server side because on the client side your browser is running on a computer that's far more powerful than a required browser It's capable of bringing a lot more so sending more processing onto the client side And if the follower is suddenly using a phone which obviously does not have the same kind of processing power then you keep it on the server side again So it becomes really easy now to essentially think about how you scale your web apps and reduce your overall cost of doing it because you're not doing two different languages If you're doing say Python on the server, JavaScript on the client side these are two different scales The way these languages work is completely different you're writing all your code twice if you're trying to basically do this kind of code balancing If you're doing JavaScript it's only one code base That's fantastic and for that reason I'm also a lot more excited about JavaScript than I was about Python or Ruby Both of them are fantastic languages but they don't have the advantage that JavaScript is bringing it So JavaScript obviously is a language with many, many faults It's a language that's never gone through a stage of coming up to maturity within a small group and then going mainstream It went into mainstream before it was ready to go mainstream and that is the topic of many stocks He's going to talk about how the language itself has been thrust into a position that most languages would not survive You take a language that's not designed to be properly used and tell everybody that it's not only in your browser you can start using it Now what usually happens is that that kind of question usually fails One notable example is X-streamer It's a standard that so many people push really hard It's a standard that ultimately still seems very small at option It's been completely replaced by X-streamer by these ways It's an example of a standard where you try to do things the proper way but clearly it's got its problems and therefore it does not get adopted despite the fact that it's actually available JavaScript, on the other hand, is a language which has serious problems but is so very successful because of a few small things about it that are interesting and that is what he's going to talk about So money is a CTO of Rinscape another company based here in Chennai and Mani and I have known each other for a few years and I've been quite impressed with what he's been building So Rinscape has a product called Visual Pass New product is called Cisflowers Cisflowers and Mani also was a Google Ivo earlier this year presenting on stage at that conference about the product that he's been building and that clearly is a significant achievement Somebody can build a product out of Chennai that is recognized on the global scale and brought out there So that's quite a much boost Thanks
