Community Sessions and Webinars
The portal hosted live sessions for the Skyway community. This page preserves the format, the topics and the way sessions were recorded.
Sessions
Live walkthroughs for the community
Community sessions were live online meetings where a member of the team walked through a product area and answered questions. They were recorded so that people in other time zones could watch later. The sessions were practical rather than promotional: a model was built, code was generated and the result was run.
Typical topics
- Building a first Spring MVC application from a model.
- Modelling a Spring Web Flow journey with validation.
- Adapting a recipe to a team convention.
- Packaging and deploying a generated project.
- Adding security to generated screens.
How a session was run
- A short introduction set the goal for the session.
- A live build showed the model and the generation run.
- The generated application was started and tested.
- Questions were collected and answered at the end.
- The recording and the model were shared with the community.
Session material. The model used in a session is the best reference afterwards. Reopen it, regenerate it and compare the result with the recording.
