“Hunt for Treasure” with Smalltalk at code.talks 2015

Christian and Helge will present the “Schatzkarte” (treasure map), a web application that enables people to hunt for their treasures—i.e., find out where the authorities have spent the taxes paid by citizens. Giving people this fundamental information is a basic necessity that empowers them to execute their democratic rights.

While providing some data on a web platform may sound trivial, it isn’t. It imposes all kinds of challenges at the domain, technical and UX levels, not to mention the organizational and political issues.

Christian will explain why he chose Cincom® VisualWorks® with the Smalltalk/JavaScript Web Application Server AppeX to meet these challenges.

And since they are at code.talks, Christian and Helge will talk about code—code that demonstrates how to tackle challenges like these.
