Today I gave a presentation at Austin Code Camp on the up and coming SnapDragon framework. I honestly didn’t know what to expect from this year’s CodeCamp but from what I hear from other people, this wasn’t like most years. Regardless of the turnout, it was definitely a learning experience and an inspiration for me to get more involved with the development community at large. I’m definitely looking forward to getting more involved with the Austin Dot Net User’s Group and meeting some of the bigger names around Austin and growing my network.

If you’re wondering about the title of this post, a friend of mine and I were in a bit of a car wreck after leaving code camp today. It wasn’t anything too serious but unfortunately his car is a little banged up and I’m feeling pretty sore .

Anyway, I have attached the presentation for any one that is interested in looking over what was presented today.

SnapDragon Abstract:

A collection of tools, .NET classes, CSS classes, jQuery extensions, and other reusable application blocks that aim to minimize development overhead.

As illustrated in the attached presentation, we have future plans for growing the framework and involving the community in its development. I’m looking forward to releasing the current code base as Open Source within the next couple of weeks and reaching out to the community to get their feedback.

Somehow May managed to sneak right passed me…like a…ninja. Seriously, I have no idea where this month went. Do  you?

It’s 1:00am and I should definitely be in bed right now but I’m actually pretty excited for tomorrow morning. Not only is this my first time attending Austin Code Camp, I have the privilege of speaking on behalf of my company. I’m giving a presentation about our upcoming SnapDragon framework. I’m not sure if these sessions will be recorded, but I’ll be posting my material on here as a followup after tomorrow.

I know that I’ve promised to update more frequently…and I also know that I haven’t been doing that. I won’t make another promise of updating, but I’ll make a more conscious effort! Wish me luck
