8bitrocket.com’s Jeff Fulton and Steve Fulton to
Discuss the Emerging Role of the Canvas Development Environment
At DevCon5 in Santa Clara, California, December 7-8, 2011
Norwalk, CT, November 10, 2011— TMC and Crossfire Media announced that Steve Fulton and Jeff Fulton, co-founders of 8bitrocket.com and authors of the best-selling “HTML5 Canvas” book – will be speaking at DevCon5—HTML5 Developers and Designers Conference, taking place December 7-8 at the Network Meeting Center in Santa Clara, California.
Published by O’Reilly Media, Steve and Jeff Fulton’s book discusses how Canvas facilitates the dynamic rendering of shapes, images, and audio. In their session at DevCon5, Steve and Jeff will describe how Canvas is augmenting, and in some cases replacing, Flash as the preferred platform for bringing animation, video and interactivity to games and web pages.
“Canvas will continue to grow in significance because future versions of the Apple Operating System – as well as Window’s-8 will not allow Flash, and our sessions at DevCon5 will teach developers everything they need to know about replacing Flash with Canvas,” Steve Fulton. “These sessions will also discuss how HTML5 is solving application issues across multiple platforms, and evolving into a replacement for application plug-ins on the web.”
Steve and Jeff Fulton are scheduled to speak on Wednesday, December 7, as follows:
- Introduction to Canvas at 2:00 PM
- The Power of Canvas at 3:30 PM
“HTML5 is creating a world of new opportunities for developers, and the DevCon5 event is the one place that web developers; software architects; graphic artists; and business executives can learn everything they need to know about HTML5,” noted event producer Carl Ford of Crossfire Media.
