< head > Conference – Slides from my SWX session

October 25, 2008 at 4:09 pm · Filed under <head> Web Conference, Actionscript 2, Actionscript 3, SWX

As promised in my session, here are the slides (PDF link) for my talk, Working with SWX: The Native Data Format for the Flash Platform. I have included a bunch of notes on what I spoke about on each slide in an attempt to aid those who couldn't make it to the session. In addition, here are some of the resources I posted in the chat during the session:

SWX on Google Code: http://swx-format.googlecode.com
SWX on twitter (follow for updates on AS3 release): http://twitter.com/swx
My twitter account: http://twitter.com/jonmacdonald

Overall the talk went very well, and seemed to have a great response. At one point there were over 60 people in the room - so an awesome turnout! Also, the announcement of SWX for ActionScript 3 received very positive responses.

As soon as the videos from the conference are released into public domain, I'll post another update with a link to the session recording.

Thanks again to Aral and <head> Conference for having me speak!

Great to hear that SWX AS3 is coming soon!
Will the old APIs work with SWX AS3?

@Florian – Yes, the current public gateway APIs should still work, but you’ll have the added option of outputting an AS3 SWF instead of the current/default AS2 SWF.
