Description:
In earlier versions, the SproutCore JavaScript framework used a clone of jQuery called CoreQuery. With the advent of jQuery 1.4 and its myriad performance improvements, SproutCore has taken the plunge and converted its rendering layer over to jQuery.
In this talk, Yehuda will talk about how SproutCore keeps its rendering layer so fast, and how jQuery 1.4's performance improvements made it possible to switch over. He will also cover some patterns used in SproutCore that you can use in standalone web applications using jQuery.
Yehuda gives a great presentation, though this one was a bit dense and hard to follow. I actually think it would have been better with fewer/less complex slides.
