Building Rich Web applications using jMaki
unassigned
About This Session
Building rich web applications has never been easier. jMaki is a lightweight client-server framework for creating rich Ajax and Web 2.0 applications. It provides an universal interface with the widgets from the various popular toolkits (Dojo, Yahoo, Google, and Scriptaculous, etc), a common data model, and a publish/subscribe mechanism to easily connecting widgets together regardless of the underlying JavaScript™ toolkit. jMaki can also work with multiple technology such as JSP™, JRuby, JavaServer Faces™ and PHP. jMaki is growing into one of the most popular rich web application development toolkits. In this lab, we will use NetBeans™ IDE to rapidly develop rich web application and then we will use Glassfish™ open source application server to deploy the application. You will learn many tactics and best practices on how to use jMaki to build the Ajax mashup applications, how to enable communication between widgets using jMaki event mechanism, how to work with multiple technologies (JSP, JRuby, etc) and multiple toolkits ((Dojo, Yahoo, Google and others), how to access to external RESTful web services, and how to work with database persistence data using JPA. At the end of the lab, you will be able to accomplish a real life rich web application.
