Welcome To UJUG Website

The Utah Java User Group is a non-profit organization primarily concerned with helping all of the Java developers in our community keep our skills sharp and knowledge current. There's no better place for Java developers in Utah to socialize, network, and learn about what's happening in the Java universe.

We meet the third Thursday of each month (except December). Our meeting agenda includes two technical presentations, various break-out sessions, book giveaways, and (perhaps the biggest draw) free food during the meeting. Bring your Java questions to the meeting and you'll probably find an answer!

Visit our sponsors. We do not collect dues or fees, so without them we wouldn't have a group. This includes our meeting place, food, books, drinks, our web site and everything else. Please take the time to visit our sponsor's web sites and support them.

We're always looking to improve our group. Send your comments, suggestions and whatever to Chris Maki This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

Building Ajax Applications with GWT

Steven Douglas Olson has been a software developer for twenty years, starting with Fortran, Pascal, Basic, and later, C at a company called Signetics. While at Novell, he began dabbling in Java, and in 1995, he was among the first to join Novell's Java development group. He's since consulted or worked directly for eight other companies, writing primarily in Java. He currently works as a consultant for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City, Utah.

RAD JSF with Seam, Facelets, and Ajax4jsf, Part One

In this session, see how you can get Ruby On Rails-like productivity on the Java side of the house with this compelling combination of technologies. JSF has been out for nearly three years now, and in many respects, the JSF specification has become a bit long in the tooth. Fortunately, the open source community has picked up the ball in a big way. In this 2-session presentation, we will explore three open source projects based on JSF--Seam, Facelets, and Ajax4jsf-- that will propel you into the stratosphere of productivity. Seam is a framework from JBoss that combines the JSF and EJB3.0/Hibernate 3.0 frameworks into one component model. That means you only have to learn one framework to build compelling web applications.

David Geary is a prominent author, speaker, and consultant, David holds a unique qualification as a Java expert: He wrote the best-selling books on both Java component frameworks: Swing and JavaServer Faces (JSF). David's Graphic Java Swing was one of the best-selling Java books of all time and Core JSF, which David wrote with Cay Horstman, is the best-selling book on JavaServer Faces.
 
David was one of a handful of experts on the JSF Expert Group that actively defined the standard Java-based web application framework. Besides serving on the JSF and JSTL Expert Groups, David has contributed to open-source projects and co-authored Sun's Web Developer Certification Exam. He invented the Struts Template library which was the precursor to Tiles, a popular framework for composing web pages from JSP fragments, was the 2nd Struts committer and is currently an active contributor to Shale. David also provides consulting and training services for server-side Java.
