Phil Davis of PDS Labs will be coming down from Portland, OR to join Paul Looney in discussing a socket server implementation for networked business applications.
Phil’s been developing in LiveCode since before v1.0, and his experience crafting the server for Paul’s system will make for a lively discussion, especially interesting for members exploring client-server applications and custom protocols.
What is LiveCode?
LiveCode is a rapid application development toolkit for most major platforms: Linux, Windows, OS X, iOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi. It has a high-level event-driven scripting language in which GUI objects are built-in along with everything else you’d expect in a general-purpose language, shortening the distance between designing and shipping an application.
LiveCode Community Edition is licensed under GPLv3 and freely available at LiveCode.org
What do you do at your meetings?
Most of our meetings have at least one presentation between 30 and 60 minutes, with the rest of the time for open Q&A and problem-solving. While many of our members are experienced scripters, we mix it up with introductory talks when we know we’ll have newcomers (one more reason to RSVP).
I know nothing about LiveCode – can I come anyway?
Of course! The more the merrier, space permitting. The room we use at Du-Par’s can seat about 20 people quite comfortably, and we’re happy to share what we’re learning about LiveCode with anyone who’s interested.
