As always the doors will open at 5pm for networking, pizza provided by Constant Contact will arrive around 5:30pm,

Presentation Overview:

HTML has emerged as a powerful alternative to “native” and enables cross-platform mobile application development.

In this session, you will learn modern strategies to build complex and native-like mobile applications using HTML and JavaScript,
and powered by a Java back-end.

You will learn how to build a RESTful API using JAX-RS and Spring, how to efficiently consume REST services and structure large
JavaScript projects using an MVC framework like Backbone.js, and how to use PhoneGap to leverage the capabilities of your device
(camera, gps, accelerometer, etc.) in JavaScript, and package your HTML application as a native app for distribution through the
different app stores.
