ASP.Net Web API - From Web to REST in 60 minutes
by Paul Glavich
As Microsoft technologists, we have had many ways to build Api's and it has often been an arduous choice. From ASMX web services,3rd party libraries, WCF Web Api to MVC itself. Finally we have a really nice aggregation of all these things in the Asp.Net Web Api. The best of MVC, gets mixed with WCF Web Api to embrace the REST way of developing Api'. Come see how we have arrived with this latest Microsoft offering, and how you can use it to build your Api's that make embracing Rest practices a breeze. We will look at simple support for basic Http verbs, through to single page apps, logging, authentication and all things api-ish.

How your website is being pwned while you're not looking
by Troy Hunt
We all invest a lot of effort in the quality of our web development and (hopefully) security is one of those practices we bake in from the ground up. Thing is though, like most things in software development, times change and many of the practices we considered secure yesterday aren’t necessarily so today. Hardware gets faster, automation becomes more prevalent and the bad guys simply find new ways to break our good work. This session looks at a collection of lesser-known practices which are being employed to break through website security, often circumventing what we’ve traditionally held to be “secure” practices. We’ll take a look at what these practices were designed to protect, how they’re being broken and what we need to do differently to protect against them.

LESS CSS for .NET developers
When a developer writes CSS, they quickly notice the must-have features which CSS does “not” actually have, variables, functions, and calculated operations are most obvious examples. As the web evolves, developers have become more exposed to HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS3 on daily basis. So, they came up with a number of languages that come and fill in the gaps in them. Out of those languages, LESS is the one that looks most just like plain CSS. LESS provides a number of handy extensions to CSS that developers especially love most. In this session, we go through those features and where they fit for modern web development. We also go through the .NET developer experience working with LESS, from IDE integration (using Visual Studio) to build integration and minification, and some bonus tips for large projects.

HTML 5 and the Mobile Web - Do you really need an app?
by Damian Brady
Smartphones are capable of amazing things and as you're no doubt sick of hearing, no matter what you need, "there's an app for that". But do you really need an app? Developers can feel constant pressure to build a killer app to compliment your website or service, but it's worth taking a step back and asking whether you need a set of native apps for all those smartphone flavours. Smartphone browsers are very powerful too, and it's amazing what you can do with a webpage, especially when combined with new HTML 5 capabilities. In this talk, we'll look at offline sites, local storage, geolocation, integration with native functions, and even more HTML 5 capabilities for mobile devices that can give your website the power of a native app.
