This is the second bootcamp overall and first for this month. This time it is Anand Institute of Technology, Chennai. The event was organized by RIA-RUI society and Griffinn Education.
The event started at 10:30 AM. First to speak was the HOD of CSE dept. He welcomed the Flex community and the society.
10:45 AM: Ananth started his session on “Introduction to RIA & Flash Platform” pretty quickly. He made the session interesting and engaging.
11:15 AM: Ananth completed his session. Next session was the hands-on session by me. It was supposed to start by this time. But because of few technical problems hands-on session delayed.
11:45 AM: Finally hands-on session started. I gave a quick introduction to Flex and started developing a sample application straight away. I choose to develop a simple “Photo Gallery” application.
12:00 AM: I completed the application with just 10 lines of code. When i tried to run the application Flex Builder warned me that the browser does not have Flash Player 9. I was shocked because Flex installation should have installed the required Flash Player. So had to troubleshoot the problem
12:15 PM: Showed the application to students in groups. I explained them about the application line by line. Interacted with them and answered few questions.
12:45 PM: It was time to say good bye to the students.
Overall the bootcamp was a great learning experience for the community. I am sure that we will do more great stuffs in the upcoming bootcamps
