jQuery For .Net Developers
with
Ely Lucas,
.Net Developer |
Do you want to build
rich,
interactive, client side web based applications?
jQuery can help you do just that!
jQuery is a lightweight
open source JavaScript library (only 15kb in size) that in a
relatively short span of time has become one of the most
popular libraries on the web. This cross-browser
library is designed to simplify the client-side scripting of
HTML.
Visual Studio 2010 is the first
version of Visual Studio to ship JQuery as a native part of
the ASP.NET solution set. By default, when you create new
ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC projects with VS 2010
you’ll find jQuery automatically added to your project.
This means that now is the
time to become familiar with jQuery and discover how
this powerful library can help you build the applications
you need.
Join us as Ely helps us build
interactive applications using jQuery -- specifically
geared towards .Net developers.

Denver .Net Study Group |
|
Our Denver .NET Study Group uses laser
sharpness to focus our combined energies where it matters
the most – the .net technologies that we use or want to use
(if we only knew how).
Our study group is a lesson itself in participation,
since this is no typical classroom setting. When you join,
plan to contribute as an active participant in your Denver
.NET Study Group. Learn from others how they go about
getting the job of learning done, the difficulties they
encounter, and some good solutions. We meet casually, but we
are all business when it comes to getting familiar with .net
technologies.
Some members want to realize their goal of .net
certification, others want to learn in order to put into
practice new skills in their current and future assignments,
still others need to learn new skills for whatever comes
their way (even when they are not sure what that is now).
Our study group is open to our members who want to study for
their .NET certifications as well as those who are not
pursuing certification. Come join us whether you are
experienced in .NET or new to .NET, but we expecting you to
have some programming background and therefore, we structure
our topics for members who are somewhat experienced in .NET.
Join us to learn during our special sessions set up
just for our Denver .NET Study Group. Keep track of our
activities through our Denver .NET Study Group which
is a subgroup of our Denver Visual Studio User Group on
LinkedIn (which is, of course, a part of our larger
Denver Visual Studio User Group (join as displayed on this web site).
