  • Doing it Right: Building jQuery Plugins

    jQuery is easily the most popular JavaScript framework for web, and with Microsoft’s continued backing – usage within .NET projects is high. So, you’re probably writing jQuery already. And if you’re writing jQuery and you’re not structuring your code as plugins – you’re just plain doing it wrong. This session will discuss how you can structure your jQuery code for safety, clean separation, better reusability and easier maintenance. We’ll be using several jQuery plugins which were created for the revamped DotNetNuke 6.0 interface as the case study.
