Date: Thursday June 18 7pm - 9pm
Where: Carrboro Creative Coworking, 205 Lloyd Street, Suite 101, Carrboro, NC 27510

Topic: Exploring Cappuccino
Speakers: Blake Watters & Jeremy Ellison of Objective 3

Cappuccino is an open source application framework for developing applications that look and feel like the desktop software users are familiar with.

Cappuccino is built on top of standard web technologies like JavaScript, and it implements most of the familiar APIs from GNUstep and Apple's Cocoa frameworks. When you program in Cappuccino, you don't need to concern yourself with the complexities of traditional web technologies like HTML, CSS, or even the DOM. The unpleasantries of building complex cross browser applications are abstracted away for you.

Join the Carrboro Rich Internet Applications Meetup as we take a tour of Cappuccino and examine exactly what this new framework has to offer. Experience with GNUStep/Cocoa is not required -- we'll walk through the fundamentals as we get started.
