I Want It All

It'll all be there. Me, some awesome development stuff, geeky references, and a round house kick demonstration of using:

• Java controller classes
• RESTful servlets
• AngularJS
• Bootstrap 3

My Original Abstract

Before the reduction, due to character limit, my abstract read as:

From Soup to Sandwich: Making MVC Java classes and front-end development work for you

Summary:

Covering the (best) practices of MVC Java patterns, with Domino, while utilizing a front-end / AngularJS application with Bootstrap 3 to create an interface that performs great across browsers and devices, enforces application logic on the server, and makes your interface compete with the big dogs.

• that last part may be slightly conceited, but I'll be using AngularJS to show-off browser implementation and it's a Google library
• this is meant to be a basic level walk through of MVC, client/front-end development against a RESTful servlet, and adaptive interfaces for a modern and relevant application development strategy
• any component can be easily used, making for individual developer-opinionated use

MVC patterns

• an intro to enforce the concepts while focusing on RESTful interaction via a Java servlet in Domino (not a deep dive into MVC)
• which enforces application logic through controller classes
• vs CRUD-only operations of Domino Data services
• why to "trust" or not your user base (DDS allowing all input, which can break a view, etc. vs servlet approach)

AngularJS framework as an interface to a Domino/XPages application

• application will be simple, extend a modified copy of David Leedy's Fake Names NSF, for simplicity's sake
• implements a custom Bootstrap 3 theme
• show how to use with XPages (intro level)
• highlight the framework's abilities and strengths (dynamically updating charting)

Conclusion

• brings together several concepts into one harmonious application
• application uses the best of each part to the advantage of the whole, demonstrating flexibility of Domino/XPages latform
• amount of developer control is high, making for easy adoption
• segregation of multi-developer implementation is quite possible; e.g.- can use front-end AngularJS, or whichever framework-specialized, developer Marketing to control Bootstrap3 theming via CSS Domino / Java developer to control Controller classes and application logic or you can go insane and do it all
