Program

Thinking About Dynamic Graphic Composition in Ember, by Chris Henn

Ember's declarative object model and data-binding make it an excellent fit for building data visualizations that respond to change. This talk presents two ways to think about building dynamic SVG visualizations in Ember in the context of Hadley Wickham's "The Grammar of Graphics". Along the way various subjects will be discussed, including code reuse and composition with Ember components and d3, imperative vs. declarative style tradeoffs, and tips and tricks for making visualizations easy to build and use. 

EmberConf Demo Preview, by Yehuda Katz and Tom Dale  

Tom and Yehuda will give us a sneak peak of the demo they plan to show as part of their EmberConf opening keynote :)

We've got plenty of room, but RSVPs via Meetup ARE required. 

See you soon...

And we're back! Posting this mostly as a save-the-date, but we're already working on the next PDX Ember Meetup :) RSVPs will go out ~2 weeks before the event.

The basic formula: good people, good food, good talks. We'll generally have two talks, usually at different skill levels, some break and networking time, and other topically relevant things as they come up.

If you or someone you know would like to take a stab at presenting (either a full talk slot, or even a short lightning talk), please get in touch. We'd love to have you!

Similarly, if you or your company would be up for sponsoring, we can use all the help we can get (especially if we want to keep up the good-food trend!). Please reach out to discuss.

Members of the Ember Core Team have recently moved to Portland, and we're really excited to get a local chapter of the Ember Meetup spun up and flourishing! We'll be meeting at the Tilde offices and mimicking the events we've been putting on San Francisco for years.

The basic formula: good people, good food, good talks. We'll generally have two talks, usually at different skill levels, some break and networking time, and other topically relevant things as they come up.

We'll be announcing the talks for this meetup shortly and opening registration on December 30th, but for now, save the date! We've got plenty of room, but RSVPs via Meetup ARE required.
