Nem, Very nice! I have bookmarked the Grails web app. Do you have any comments regarding how development went? Any lessons learned to tell?
HI Mike,
the development was pretty smooth. All together about 9 hours of work :) Grails spoiled me big time. Oh, and Twitter Bootstrap as well. I don't think I will use anything else besides twitter bootstrap for my css framework ever again!
Anyway, the web app is hosted on appfog which is another life saver for smaller java applications. Their free tier gives you 2GB of RAM which is plenty for running jvm.
As far as the android app, I used phone gap. But i think we had a thread about the phone gap, so I won't go into details.
The app communicates with the web app pulling the events data in JSONP format. One thing I learned is that you must specify JSONP data type when using phone gap or any other cross domain ajax calls.
Anyway, thanks for checking it out!

Nem, This would be a great case study for GatorJUG. Let's talk! /mike
Yea sure I'd be glad to talk about it. When is the next meeting?
I'm just about to reserve a venue for 12 months of 2013 on the second Wed of each month! <hint>Call for speakers...</hint>
I'd be glad to talk about my projects. I have another project that i think would be very interesting to talk about. It is another Grails project that uses atmosphere https://github.com/Atmosphere/
That sounds good, Nem. Thanks. Of the three, the Grails app would be first case study choice, the Android app second and the Atmosphere app third. That is, unless you'd like to talk about them as 2 case studies: the Grails/Android G'Ville Events apps and the Atmosphere app. We get the best turnout with more standard presentations these days, rather than very unique topics.
The next GatorJUG meeting is Wed, January 9th.

Let's do the Gainesville Events Grails app only then.
Perfect. If you give me a bio and abstract, I'll do the rest. Second Wed of Jan is 1/9.
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Ben Hartshorne discusses how to pitch a product, covering why one needs to make a business case, what is tech debt, what data is most compelling, getting tech debt on other teams’ roadmaps
By Ben HartshorneIn this podcast the Culture and Methods editorial team along with special guest Jutta Eckstein talk about the current state and trends we see in the technology industry in 2024.
By Susan McIntosh, Jutta Eckstein, Craig Smith, Ben Linders, Rafiq GemmailHashicorp recently released the version 2.3 of Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes with a new feature: the ability to initiate workspace runs declaratively. The Terraform Cloud Operator for Kubernetes was introduced in November 2023 with the goal to provide a Kubernetes-native experience while leveraging Terraform workflows
By Claudio MasoloMore projects from the CNCF incubated level are preparing to graduate for an ever-widening cloud native ecosystem. The Backstage community has worked on a more robust architecture, and Crossplane aimed to improve its developer DX. KubeFlow and Volcano, both tools promising to improve AI adoption within the Kubernetes ecosystem, are working on easier installation and more features, respectively.
By Olimpiu PopAccording to Marijn Huizenveld, discipline is key to preventing accumulating technical debt. In order to be disciplined you should make it difficult to ignore the debt. Heuristics like fixing small issues immediately, agreeing on a timebox for improvement, and making messy things look messy, can help tame technical debt.
