Group Detail: This growing community allow for members to post their solutions and ideas as well as receiving valuable information based on opinions of members and their experiences - this User Group exist to portray the Open Community and the facing of IBM and its products. We do not dictate the blogs, but we do recommend for each individual to start sharing their ideas (in Blogs that are available to each member, and by actively participating in the surveys and the activities found here. In doing so you will be rewarded with points and at a given time these will be rewarded in exchange for a gift). The experience and the use of the GWC is valuable to us and it will help to not only strengthen our WebSphere Knowledge, but also help the larger commnunity to share in their past experiences with proven concepts and IT solutions. With Toronto WUG we try to aim at direct interaction with IBMers from all over the world and correlate to people that share the same ideas from qualified members. All ideas are welcome on how you want to improve this site, and we look forward to sharing online content with our members. As a member we invite you to Enjoy the different Presentations and Videos as well as Podcasts and Blogs. The search capability to easily find your way to specific solutions has been improved and key tags have been made available to enable this functionality.

The Lean WebSphere Developer

 

This presentation will look at the evolution of development environments to address the requirements of Developers. Developers need lightweight execution environments supported by high quality tools:

 

Whose configuration is simple to edit, version and share

Which is easy to access and build to from an Eclipse development environment whose footprint is closely tailored to the application's needs, and Whose execution behavior has high fidelity to the target production system.

 

This presentation focusses on new WebSphere improvements in the developer experience for web applications and demonstrates how these dramatically simplify the edit-compile-debug cycle to improve developer productivity and reduce time to value.
