About the conference
JSConf 2009 is a conference devoted to the programming language we all love to hate and hate to love, JavaScript. This is conference will be thoughtful, content driven, and exemplify the very nature of JavaScript. The core focus of this conference is to expose some of the details about JavaScript that are often overlooked and present them more as a discussion with the audience. The content of the conference should cater to all types of JavaScript users from client interfaces to server development to testing. No matter which programming language you love, you know of the pleasure and pain of JavaScript programming.

    Use sproutcore without ruby

    by Steve Tirtha

    Hi,

    Is it possible to use in runtime sproutcore without ruby?
    Can javascript from sproutcore run without starting any server?

    Regards,
    Steve

    SproutCore is server agnostic since it supports RESTful backends that receive and accept JSON data. The package includes developer tools written in Ruby.

    Regards,
    Kadda.

    Hi,

    I know that SproutCore is loose coupled from the backend server. However, when I did the "Tutorial" of SproutCore it requires to start a ruby server, then I can access the localhost and see how SproutCore looks like. Can I replace this ruby server with other server?

    Regards,
    Steve
