I had a really great time on the Joomladays past two days. I had only expected to hear a bit more from the other projects on the topic of ‘building bridges’. All of the presentations we attended about other projects where mere introductions and feature overviews of their technology. A missed chance if you ask me.
On the business day , I gave a presentation about the Joomla! Application Layer, titled : Quickguide to Joomla! Application Stardom.
In the first part of my talk I discussed how the web is evolving from web 1.0 to 2.0 and 3.0. I concluded that Joomla! 1.5 would be what I would call web 1.5.
In the second part I gave a quick intro in the Joomla! 1.5 Application layer and demonstrated how we used it to create RokBridge, a bridge between phpBB3 and Joomla! 1.5.
In my previous blog post I also hinted about a little surprise. Well, the good news for RokBridge users is that we (thanks Anthony) have found a way to visually integrate the bridge into Joomla! 1.5 without using a component. This means full performance, user bridging and visual integration. Neat isn’t !
