FITC Amsterdam – RIA meets Desktop

February 25th, 2008

I just finished my presentation at FITC Amsterdam, absolutely loved talking about Adobe AIR despite having some unfortunate beamer problems for the first 15 or so minutes of my talk — had some time to improvise and do Q&A with the audience.

The crowd seemed to be very ‘into’ AIR and interested to hear about the different API’s. Trying to cover everything in a one hour session is insane so I narrowed the scope down to the following:

■ Network monitoring
■ Windowing API
■ HTML support
■ FileSystem access
■ SQLite database
■ Drag ‘n drop support
■ Clipboard access
■ Update API

You can find my session notes below:

Next up is Nico Lierman, talking about some more advanced data visualization with Flex and AIR. Looking forward to it!

    Thanks for sharing this Peter (code+slides) ! About API’s available in AIR, i read somewhere that Notification’s API (is it really on API?) and System Tray Support behave differently on MAC and PC… have you more information on this ?

    Hi Peter,

    I enjoyed your presentation, very clear and the examples good.
    I’d still like to thank you for the book and hope the feature request about custom/skinnable installers will be in the next release.

    Thanks!

    Hi Peter,
    this looks like a great presentation, I hope you’ll deliver it again elsewhere sometime. For now I’ll dig into the slides.

    All the best.
