On the 16th of February, Umbraco turns five, a surprisingly
vigorous five-year-old if you ask me, and this will be celebrated
at several locations across the globe. If you live in Sweden, and
have the possibility to attend, you really should try to get there.
You can sign up here.
If you don't live in Sweden, there's a possibility that there's an
event in your country too, so check out the list of events.
The company hosting the event, Milagro, has
asked me to hold a short presentation at the event, and I'm going
to talk about and showcase an application I developed for a client
of theirs. It's a web based PDF Creation Tool, that uses
Umbraco more as an application engine and framework, than in
the role of the more traditional Content Management System, that I
believe Umbraco is most commonly used as. This case was actually
how I introduced Milagro to the magnificent product that
Umbraco is, and they have already managed to certify two
employees, both level 1 and 2, and by the time of the event, two
more, making them the agency with the most certified developers in
Sweden.
I'll be covering this application in a series of blog posts here
as well, but if you're attending the event you'll
get the goods in one go.
I'm very satisfied with the application, although steps has
already been taken to improve it extensively, but as this is a work
in progress and not nearly finished, I won't cover it in my
presentation.
If you have no idea what Umbraco is, this is an
opportune moment to find out. I really think you should attend.
