The Enyo team was out in full force at the O’Reilly Fluent Conference in San Francisco last week. Enda McGrath got all things Enyo underway with his keynote speech, which you can watch below:

Enyo: A truly Cross-Platform JavaScript Framework

Ben Combee, Enyo’s lead architect, gave another talk entitled “A Deeper Look at the Enyo JavaScript Framework.” In his talk, he covered the object-oriented programming concepts that form the core of the Enyo framework and also showed how our layout and onyx widget libraries can be used with Enyo to build complex web applications.

In the booth, attendees scarfed up free t-shirts and got to play with an app we’re working on called Enyo Liveblogger.  We identified the act of liveblogging – sharing notes from a talk you’re listening to in realtime – as a great use case for when someone would need to use the same app across different devices.  Attendees got a sneak peek of this experience running on a multitude of screen sizes for iOS, Android, Kindle, and desktop devices.  

We’ll be flipping this repo open soon, stay tuned for updates as Enyo Liveblogger progresses.

To demonstrate the flexibility of Enyo, Developer Relations Engineer Roy Sutton took on a challenge to adapt fellow Fluent exhibitor Wijmo’s jQuery calendar widget for use with Enyo. In about 20 minutes, Roy was able to wrap their widget so that it could be dropped into an Enyo app. Roy’s work is available on Github here: https://github.com/webOS101/wijcal_sample.

Thanks to everyone who came to see us at Fluent!  We’re quickly booking our summer tour schedule, so be sure to follow @EnyoJS on Twitter for the latest events near you.
