Aurlelia: Next Generation Web Apps

Rob Eisenberg (Creator of the Durandal and Aurelia Frameworks)

Aurelia is a next generation JavaScript framework for building apps for the browser, desktop and mobile devices. It’s easy to learn and use, extremely powerful and built on modern Web Standards. There’s no other framework quite like it.

Come join us in this session to learn the basics of Aurelia and get a taste of its simplicity and power. We’ll walk through a series of demos showing some unique and powerful capabilities of Aurelia unmatched by other technologies.

Rob Eisenberg is a JavaScript expert and .NET architect working out of Tallahassee, FL and he is the President of Blue Spire Consulting. Rob got his start with computer programming at the age of nine, when he thoroughly fell in love with his family’s new Commodore 64. His fascination with programming started with the Commodore Basic language, then moved to Q Basic and QuickBasic and quickly continued on to C, C++, C# and JavaScript. Rob publishes technical articles regularly at http://eisenbergeffect.bluespire.com and has spoken at regional events and to companies concerning Web and .NET technologies, Agile software practices and UI engineering. He is coauthor of Sam’s Teach Yourself WPF in 24 Hours and is the creator of the Durandal and Caliburn.Micro frameworks. He’s formerly a member of the Angular 2.0 Core Team at Google, before leaving to return to work on Durandal and it’s next generation version: Aurelia.
