Title: Best Practices for Architecting a Pragmatic Web API Speaker: Mario Cardinal Time: 9:30 10:45 We've all seen the introduction to MVC showcasing all the neat features. This time, we're actually architecting an application farther than the typical demo. We're going to structure our code to be reusable, testable and if possible pretty. This session will assume that you already know a bit of MVC and that you know how controllers and views works. Title: Debugging the web with Fiddler and Chrome Speaker: Maxime Rouiller Time: 11:00 12:15 Fiddler and Chrome are the hammer and the power drill to help you understand what is going with your website. Ever wondered how the caching on images work? Wanted to know how redirecting a user from one page to another work on a basic level? We'll see how it works with fiddler. Then we'll look at debugging the performance of a web application with Chrome. Lunch 12:15 13:30 (not included)

Title: Charting in your browser with JavaScript and HTML5 Speaker : Maxime Rouiller Time : 15:00 16:15 If you wanted to draw a chart in 2004, you needed either SSRS (expensive) or start writing code with the GDI+ api to create images of your charts. It was a painful time. A sad time. Today, we can create dynamic and interactive charts with pure HTML5, JavaScript and a lot of fun.
