I’ve been working with Karl on answering the question of “who uses Dojo”. We still have work to do to clean this up, but for now, check out the first few entries of the Dojo Spotlight.

We’re starting to offer Dojo 1.0 training courses, with completely revamped course materials, activities, and more. We have upcoming courses planned in San Francisco (December), Phoenix (January), and Sydney, Australia (February) in the next few months. If you have questions or would like to request training in your area of the world, please let us […]

Now that Dojo 1.0 has shipped, the community is putting a lot of effort into finishing the new web site, updating tutorials, improving documentation, examples, and demos. And fixing bugs of course. Even with the new launch of the web site next week, we know there’s going to be a lot we can do better, […]

A new article, The Mojo of Dojo, by Matthew Russell (no relation to Alex) is now available, as is the short cut preview of his book, Get Up and Running with Dojo. These are great additions for learning about Dojo 1.0. The release candidate for 1.0 is due any hour now.

On the WebKit blog, Dave Hyatt announced that WebKit now has support for CSS Transforms. This is really interesting because it takes the matrix transformation possibilities from SVG, and moves them into CSS, allowing their application on any HTML element. I’d also bet that given WebKit and Safari 3’s solid SVG support, this was relatively […]

We returned from Italy recently… what an amazingly refreshing experience. Italy is an amazing country with the great combination of art, architecture, scenery, and cuisine. Fully recharged, there are a number of things we’ve been working on that are close to being announced: Dojo Toolkit 1.0: After 3 plus years, we’re closing in on a […]

I’m giving a talk on the current state of Dojo at the Grails eXchange on October 17 in London. The conference is put on by Skills Matter, a training company that also puts on our Dojo training courses in Europe. They do an excellent job with the training courses, and there are a number of […]

After writing a recent post about thinking outside the (browser) box, I started thinking about the rapid rate by which things are changing. A year ago, most web developers had to think about Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, and perhaps WAP for mobile devices and widget development for one of more platforms. Today, we are […]

It’s a bit late to be doing a WWDC follow-up, but better late than never. Alex and I were invited to give a talk about Dojo several months ago, as was Sam Stephenson of Prototype. Since we’re not really allowed to talk about anything tech from the talk that isn’t public, I thought it would […]

We use Daylite for our internal group calendar, and for the most part we love this Mac-only application. However, there are a few basic things about it that do not make sense. The fields for start and end time are not wide enough to see the start and end time (see image). Regardless of how […]
