[GNHLUG] NHRuby.org Meeting on Tuesday, Mar 11: A comparison between Rails and Django.

[Scott Garman]

Due to limited availability of our conference room, we will be meeting
this month on the *second* Tuesday of the month, March 11.

This month, Brian Turnbull will be talking about Rails and Django,
illustrating differences and similarities by developing a web
application in each framework. Topics for comparison include:

* Application creation
* Model, View, Controller (MVC) components
* Object Relational Mappers (ORM)
* Extending the schema/models
* User Sessions
* Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)
* Caching

Rails is a full-stack framework for developing database-backed web
applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern.

Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid
development and clean, pragmatic design. [http://djangoproject.com]

WHEN: Tuesday, March 11, 2008. 7-9 PM.
WHERE: RMC Research Offices, 1000 Market Street, Portsmouth, NH.

This month we're trying something new and will be broadcasting the
meeting live via WebEx. Detailed instructions on how to join the online
meeting are also posted on the wiki. Please bear with us if things don't
go smoothly, this is an experiment. :)

Regards,

Scott
