Melbourne Australia Meetup Tonight April 20!

Melbourne, Australia Safenetwork Meetup No 3 for 2017 was held last night.

We slightly increased our numbers to six, and are slowly finding our way. If you happen to know anyone in this part of the world, please refer them, https://www.meetup.com/SAFEdev-Melbourne/events/237844420/

I was very pleased to be able to demonstrate the client apps using the community-developed Mock Routing pack, Mock-routing questions. This was the first time I’d been able to actually show the experience of accessing and publishing to the VFS, and it was very encouraging.

I had also wanted to go a bit further into the APIs, but have found the examples a little daunting. (I’m not a front-end dev). I’d really appreciate some bare-bones, atomic examples of the fundamental and essential API calls to get started with. I also prefer to introduce this type of thing to others without having to wade through frameworks and heaps of dependencies.

If anyone has some simple naked web stack material (no framework etc), that they’d like to share, we’d be very grateful. (I’m not against frameworks for projects, they’re essential, it’s just that there are many and when all you want to do is start to bang away against an api, a framework that you’re unfamiliar with puts a lot of friction into the process.)

I’ll keep you posted on our next meetup, and when we get some more people and a bit more polish, we’ll probably begin to video.

Cheers

Peter
