JSF software developer, consultant, and Java instructor

An experienced software developer, consultant, and instructor specializing in Enterprise Java development. With more than ten years in the Web design industry and five as a professional programmer, Ian has gained proficiency in the areas of Web user interface design and Java application development. Ian holds a Bachelor of Humanities degree from Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, and certificates in Enterprise Java Development and Web Design from Algonquin College, also in Ottawa.

As president of Tarantula Consulting Inc., Ian occupies the roles of senior developer and product manager.

The extension has been downloaded extensively and Tarantula's international customer base is growing steadily. The company has subsequently released a line of related products to support JSF development in Dreamweaver using Facelets, Tomahawk and Trinidad.

When Ian isn't working on products, consulting, or teaching Java courses, he plays flamenco guitar and enjoys cross-country trips on his Harley.

Presentations

Developing Ajax-Enabled Seam Applications Using Adobe Dreamweaver and NetBeans

This talk focuses on combining the creative power of Adobe Dreamweaver with the productivity of NetBeans to develop next-generation JSF applications. Participants will learn how to use Dreamweaver code hints and the syntax auto-complete feature to develop Ajax-enabled JSF pages using the RichFaces Tools for Dreamweaver and Seam Tools for Dreamweaver plugins.

Techniques for separating application development concerns, such as user interface design and backing bean programming, will be demonstrated. The presentation will be mostly hands-on with a live demonstration of how to build a simple JSF application using standard and custom components from start to finish using Adobe Dreamweaver, NetBeans, the SeamGen utility, and a MySQL database.

Hands-On JSF Design and Development: Round-Trip Engineering with Adobe and Eclipse

This exciting presentation focuses on the interoperability of the Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and the popular Eclipse platform to create next-generation JSF applications. Participants will see how to combine the creative power of Adobe software with the productivity of Eclipse to rapidly develop new JSF applications from start to finish.

Key highlights of the presentation include creating and deploying new JSF projects in Eclipse with the Web Tools Platform, generating advanced CSS-based layouts like professional web designers do, creating Facelets templates in Dreamweaver, dragging and dropping JSF components to build pages in Dreamweaver, data binding and event handling with JSF forms, and debugging a running JSF application in Eclipse.
