Immerse yourself in two Days of intense Training
This year's training sessions are broken up in two very distinct days. The first day serves as an introduction to Web Connection's base features for new users to get familiar with Web Connection's rich feature set. It'll also show off the new features in Web Connection 6.0 and later. Day Two brings you conference style breakout sessions that delve into specific Web and Web Connection development topics.
Day One: Introduction to Web Connection 6.0
Day one introduces Web Connection to new users starting with installation and a short overview of the architecture. You'll see how to install Web Connection and create a new project and see several different ways of creating request output for your Web applications. We then walk through creating a small application so you can get a good feel what it's like to use Web Connection in typical server side Web development. We'll introduce how to use the new templates in Web Connection in conjunction with the Bootstrap CSS framework. You'll learn what you need to know about HTML and CSS as well as how to generate the HTML from your FoxPro application using both code and dynamic script templates.
In addition to introducing Web Connection to new users we'll also demonstrate the new features of Web Connection 6.0. You'll see the new project layout, the new default templates both for the project as a whole and also the new page templates for Visual Studio to simplify new page development. We'll also lean heavily on the improvements in the script and template engines using Layout Pages and Partial Rendering to make it easier to reuse HTML layout in Web applications.
Day Two: Conference Style Sessions
Day two presents a number of conference style sessions on a variety of topics that are to be determined. If you want to leave some feedback for sessions to be covered please see this thread on the Message Board and chime in what you want to see. As we get a little closer to the early bird deadline we'll post more info on the sessions chosen for Day 2.
We want you to walk away ready to build sophisticated Web Applications with Visual FoxPro faster than ever before. As usual these training workshops involve audience interaction so you help shape the format of the event.
