| | Topic: | Iowa Code Camp
Iowa .NET and CRIneta.org are hosting the second code camp to Iowa on November 8, 2008 at DMACC West in West Des Moines.
You might be asking, what's a code camp? Well, here are some of the basic ideas:
* Community driven
* High quality
* Its for and by developers
* No cost (for attendees)
* All about code, not PowerPoint presentations
* Source code and slides must be available to share with people who attend
* Never during work hours - usually on Saturday
What a code camp is not:
* Corporate product placement
* Marketing
* Powerpoint centric

Silverlight provides a powerful platform for building the next generation of rich interactive applications on the Internet. In this session, we’ll take a look at the programming model and tools that developers and designers can leverage to build these true next generation experiences for consumers and business, and demonstrate how to build a rich interactive application (RIA) using Silverlight and Microsoft .NET. We’ll explore how to use Microsoft Visual Studio to create applications, and how to create UI using XAML markup and code, controls, and File I/O.

| | Topic: | Creating and deploying Web Parts in SharePoint
Web Parts are one the key components in the SharePoint user interface. They actually predate SharePoint and have since undergone many framework changes. While the product team and third party vendors have provided us with many Web Parts to choose we can always find a good reason to build one more. Web Parts now reside in the ASP.Net domain but with a specific framework implementation for SharePoint. In this session we will overview the lifecycle for a custom developed Web Part using Visual Studio by creating and deploying a simple custom Web Part.

| | Topic: | Creating Accessible DotNetNuke Sites with Telerik and Other Controls
This session will introduce individuals to basic functionality of the DotNetNuke core, and common "trouble areas" when it comes to compliant code, and ease of use. Discussions surrounding DotNetNuke's ability to support different editors, menu controls, and more will be had, including examples of code reductions. Additionally a discussion regarding SEO friendly modules that help with site optimization.
Of the topics discussed a majority will still be applicable to individuals not using the DotNetNuke framework, careful consideration will be taken to ensure that these opportunities are discussed in detail as well.
