Coding The Architecture UG:Flex, Silverlight or JavaFX - which should you choose?
Flex, Silverlight or JavaFX - which should you choose?
Those of you that attended the last JAVAWUG meeting will have seen Peter talk about and demonstrate JavaFX - Sun's RIA platform. In the next Coding the Architecture user group, we'll be taking a look at all three of the major RIA platforms - Flex, Silverlight and JavaFX. A common example will be used to demonstrate each of the platforms, additionally acting as a baseline for an unbiased comparison of the code, development paradigm, flexibility, ease of use and so on. The format will be presentation followed a by roundtable discussion where you can ask questions and share your own RIA experiences. Come along on the 20th of August and let the RIA debate begin. There may even be some t-shirts and books to be given away!
