[Free] Build your First Mobile App in One Day with HTML5, jQuery, PhoneGap Usergrid - Portland!
Website
Description
Join us for a free one-day training course to learn everything you need to know to build your first mobile app — with HTML5+PhoneGap+jQuery+Usergrid! As taken by over 3,000 people in San Francisco, New York, Austin, Amsterdam, Los Angeles, Seattle and more! The classes are completely free (and all the software services we’ll be using are too — most of them are even open-source)
This class will teach you everything you need to build a mobile app for iOS or Android – as well as Windows Phone, Blackberry or a mobile browser. In addition to reviewing important mobile features of HTML5 and Javascript, you will also learn how to use a mobile UI framework (jQuery Mobile), how to add app features with a Backend-as-a-Service (open-source Usergrid) and how to deploy your app to devices natively using PhoneGap. By the end of the workshop, we will have built a fully-featured app, ready for release on the app store, without having written a single line of server-side code!
Pre-requisites
A laptop: minimum OS requirements are Mac OS X 10.5.8, Windows XP, or any linux that supports JDK6 Basic understanding of HTML CSS and some programming experience (ideally in JavaScript and jQuery, but not necessarily): it may be useful for you to go through the following Codecademy lessons to brush up before you attend: classes 1–3 of the Web course, classes 1–6 of the JavaScript course and classes 1–5 of the jQuery course. A working install of PhoneGap/Cordova. Please download PhoneGap and complete the “Platform Guide” for your preferred platform (iOS, Android, etc.) ahead of the class.
Schedule
8:30am: Doors open — registration and coffee Intro HTML5 and Mobile Apps Building a mobile user interface with jQuery Mobile Loading live data into your app (Usergrid) noon: Lunch break (provided by Apigee) Writing live data from your app Package and launch your app natively on iOS or Android with PhoneGap Using advanced features like geolocation 4pm: Q and drinkup! (Beers provided by Apigee.)
About the Instructor
Greg is a Developer Evangelist at Apigee. Greg has been working in the web industry literally since the web was born – he was hand-coding HTML before the table tag was even "invented". His career has taken him around the world, from the early days of desktop publishing, to a start-up in Hamburg, Germany where he helped build one of the first HTML authoring tools, the glory days of the web at Macromedia and finally his role as Principal Evangelist at Adobe prior to joining Apigee. Greg has spoken about web technologies at over 300 industry conferences around the world, as well as being a published author. Here’s what previous attendees have to say…

For your Boss You’re sold? Need to convince your boss? Well, just tell him about all the things you’ll get to learn in just one day!
If you’re a web designer, you will learn how to design interfaces for mobile websites and mobile apps quickly, and even how to implement them on your own into working prototypes, allowing your to tackle your company’s mobile projects this year If you’re a front-end engineer, you will learn how to build mobile applications that look feel like native apps, using the tools you’re already proficient with: HTML, CSS and JavaScript/jQuery If you’re a native app developer, you will learn another way to build mobile apps, that allows your company to quickly launch projects for multiple platforms (iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry, etc.) using the same codebase! If you’re already an HTML5 or advanced app developer, you will learn how to use a Backend-as-a-service to quickly prototype, deploy and efficiently scale your company’s mobile apps without needing a backend team to keep it running. If you’re a backend developer, you will learn everything you need to know about the constraints of developing launching mobile apps, what it means for backend architectures, and how large companies with tens of thousands of employees and millions of users manager their data backends for mobile apps In just one day, you will learn everything you need to build real apps on your own. Past example includes: store locator, employee directory, Yelp-like app, mobile intranet, HR applicant tracker, lunch ordering system, conference app, room reservation system, and many more! Spend one day in this training and you’ll have the tools to tackle any mobile project your boss or customer throws at you.
