• Next fireside chat for developers - 1st April

    From Vince M Hudd@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 28 23:25:30 2023
    The latest in a series of online meetings with developers in mind -
    friendly fireside chats with a view to sharing ideas and techniques, and providing guidance and advice - will take place on Saturday, 1st April.

    The topic of that meeting is how to interface RISC OS with external
    devices, with the goal of switching LED lights on and off. The idea is
    that although interfacing with external hardware might sound advanced,
    doing so is a good way to introduce more general and basic principles,
    such as using the RISC OS application programmer interface (API) from a
    number of different languages.

    The meeting will take place from 7:30pm, using the Zoom video
    conferencing system, which can be downloaded for most main platforms
    from https://zoom.us/

    The meeting is open to anyone interested in programming on RISC OS -
    whether at a beginner level or advanced, or anywhere in between, and no
    matter whether you're a seasoned RISC OS user, or someone new to the
    platform wondering what you can do with it armed with a compiler or interpreter.

    If you’ve attended any of the previous meetings, the details should be
    the same, but if you haven’t you can obtain them by sending a direct
    message to Andrew McCarthy on Twitter - https://twitter.com/ArmBytes -
    or Mastodon - https://mastodon.online/@armbytes

    If you don't use either of those, you can contact him directly from your
    RISC OS computer using ChatCube, and if that's not an option you can
    also get them by sending an email to me using the address in the headers
    of this message. (Please be aware, though, that any emails sent this way
    on Saturday may not get a reply until close to the meeting’s start time!)
