What to expect at MN.swf Camp?
We know you're busy, so all the sessions at MN.swf Camp are packed into one day. In this short time frame we intend to educate and inspire you while providing opportunity for you to network and connect with other members of the local development community.
We have two types of sessions. The first type is a 60-minute practical session focused on education. Attendees should expect the presenter to dig into the inner workings of the code and demonstrate practical programming techniques that can be applied immediately. There will be two practical sessions going on at the same time to allow the attendee to select the topic that best meets his/her needs. The second type is a 30-minute session focused on inspiration. This session won't dig into code, but will talk generally about technique and strategy. We will bring all the attendees together for these shorter sessions.
Who should attend MN.swf Camp?
Anyone with interest in the Flash Platform would benefit from the conference. The sessions will be targeting developers and programmers that work in ActionScript, Flex, Flash and/or AIR. There will be sessions for the beginner, intermediate and advanced programmer.
