Getting Started with EWDjs

This is an introductory course on the EWDjs framework.

The course assumes little, if any, prior technical knowledge, but it helps if you're familiar with Windows, Nodejs, HTML, JavaScript and the use of databases.

The course is mainly based around screen-casts that take the student, step-by-step, through the entire process of

• installing the components needed for EWDjs
• developing a browser-based application
• developing a set of Web Services

However it also includes some animated presentations that aim to help the student to understand the technology and architecture of EWDjs

All the source code used in the examples I create in the screencasts is included in the downloadable resources for each lecture.

With just over 3 hours of lectures, the course is designed to be completed in a day if you can dedicate the time to it, but I'd recommend that some of the lectures are watched several times in order to fully understand what's going on.

This course will be of interest to anyone who wants to develop interactive, browser-based applications and Web Services with Nodejs, and particularly if you're interested in using Nodejs with the Cache database technology or the GT.M database. If you're a Mumps developer looking to update your skills and modernise your technology stack, particularly if you're working with the VistA Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR), then this course will be particularly relevant.
