Editor's Notes
- #4: Forward looking content Equivalent environment to Notes Domino 9.0.1 , OpenNTF Extension Library
- #5: Bottom layer are applications built with the standards you see above it . Hard as a Notes Developer to get to grips with some of these J2EE technologies. SBT simplifes this by providing Java and JavaScript API's and languages that you can use access data withing these applications more easily if thats your progamming language of choice . I am going to focus on XPages
- #6: Mobile First and Social are 2 of IBM's main focus areas XPages is a modern application development platform for Domino. Whether you have a Xworks server with no mail and just the app platform or Domino with mail also. Quick Functional _> CRUD Lowers barrier to Entry
- #7: Dependency chain for XPages applications wanting to use mobile and Social
- #8: High level custom controls = XPages Custom Controls in XPagesSBT.nsf Show how to aggregate controls for re-use
- #11: Releases also available on GitHub https://github.com/OpenNTF/SocialSDK/releases
- #15: Beyond APIs … using SBT SDK UI capabilities in XPages
