Intro
Introduction to Knockout JS (Hady Osman)
Knockout is a javascript library that utilises the MVVM pattern to help create rich and responsive user interfaces with a clean underlying data model. The session would be a live demonstration of Knockout JS coding, whilst highlighting its point of difference from common DOM manipulation libraries such as jQuery.
CoffeeScript (Rowan Crawford)
There's a big gap between JavaScript and JavaScript: The Good Parts. CoffeeScript tries to bridge that gap. That, and all of its output passing JSLint, is why I <3 the CoffeeScript.
Case Study - Javascript in Tight Loops (Jordan Bullivant)
I recently completed a canvas project with some neat effects (exocomics.com/200). Using the scene as a case study, I'd like to share some interesting things that I learned along the way - I'll be talking about optimising javascript for tight, fast loops, and discussing the current performance of javascript for full-frame animation.
