How neccesary is it to know how to program in javascript/serverside?
Jan 17 2008, 4:44 AM EST
I don't have any experience programming in javascript or a server-side language, my background is mostly in c++ and flash actionscript 2.0 and very little Java. Would it still be possible to be efficient at the hackathon with my background? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

OpenSocial Javascript APIs are in javascript. However it is not too difficult to learn javascript if you are familiar with Actionscript 2.0. After our 1st hackathon, we may have additional information. Please review the sample application on OpenSocial site. Do you find this valuable?
