Intro to Dojo talk
Dojo makes professional web application development better, easier, and faster. This talk covers Dojo's core APIs, including those for Ajax, Drag and Drop, Animations, and AOP-style event handling. We'll also discuss some of the stock widgets, various ways to take advantage of them, and how you can use Dojo's package system to help make your own code faster and more portable.
