On August 7th I’ll be speaking at the Betahouse with John Resig about the jQuery Javascript Framework. My friend and colleague Patrick Haney put this talk together for Refresh Boston.

Check out the Upcoming Event. Sign up sooner than later, as of this writing there were only about 20 slots left!

I’ll be talking about how I’ve used jQuery in some of my development projects and some tricks and best practices I’ve picked up along the way. I’ll also be talking about degradation, progressive enhancement and (time permitting) discuss how jQuery’s Plugin architecture lets small teams do a lot with little.

Update

The talk was a great success and I had a great time. I’ve posted my slides: jQuery Best Practices. Much thanks goes to the Betahouse for hosting the Refresh Boston event.

As well as the accompanying demos on Progressive Enhancement:

• jQuery Rating
• Toggle-able Forms
