Want to understand Project Zero? Watch the following videos to see things in action!
Installing Project Zero for Eclipse This movie shows how to easily get Project Zero (www.projectzero.org) installed and running inside of your Eclipse IDE. If you have not tried Project Zero for your web development project yet, this is the place to start. This video is narrated by Jason McGee, Project Zero Chief Architect.
Installing Project Zero For Command Line Usage This movie shows how to easily get the Project Zero (www.projectzero.org) command line tools installed and running on your computer. If you have not tried Project Zero for your web development project yet, and you like to use the command line and your favorite text editor, this is the place to start. This video is narrated by Jason McGee, Project Zero Chief Architect.
Hello World: Building a Simple Application This movie shows how to build a simple HelloWorld application with Project Zero (www.projectzero.org). It also provides an quick overview of the structure of a Project Zero application. If you have Zero installed and want to see how to get started with a simple app, this is the movie for you. This video is narrated by Jason McGee, Project Zero Chief Architect.
Combining client-side and server-side mashups This video demonstrates how a client-side mashup maker like QEDWiki can be used in combination with Assemble flows implementing the server-side of an overall mashup application. Here, QEDWiki is used to mashup the user interface for an application that visualizes the sales status of a number of stores of a fictitious company and an Assemble flow is used to aggregate information from the various stores into the "perfect feed" mashed up with UI widgets like Google maps and tabular displays of sales results.
Getting started with Zero Assemble Flow. This short video shows how to add Flow support to a Project Zero development environment. We start by downloading the Zero Assemble Flow and Tooling libraries to the local repository. It is only necessary to perform this step once, before using the assemble tools for the first time. We first search for all modules starting zero dot assemble. We select flow and tooling, and click 'download'. Close the dialog box once the download has completed. We next create an instance of the Flow Example project. It provides the Aggregrate and Sort tasks that we will require later. Now we open a new Zero Project to hold the flows that we are about to create. We record dependencies on the Flow runtime, samples and tooling by editing ivy.xml in the config directory. Finally we make the web-based tooling available by starting the project. Later videos will show the graphical tooling in action.
Creating a simple RSS Aggregation flow This video demonstrates the use of the graphical tooling to build the first Feed sample provided in the zero assemble flow example project. Once assembled, the flow's behavior will be to aggregate and sort two RSS feeds into a single new feed. The two feeds in question are taken from the BBC and Yahoo news services. We expect to see a single RSS feed containing sorted content from the BBC and Yahoo news services. (For Milestone 1, will be updated soon)
Assemble Store Demo This video shows the construction and operation of the Assemble Store demo. Store demo features a workflow requiring coordination between four different actors who initiate, approve, design and receive goods deliveries. This video is in three parts. Firstly, we'll extract the Store Demo from the Flow example project and customize it for our local environment. Secondly we'll use the graphical tooling to build the Flow component. Finally we'll run the application. (For Milestone 1, will be updated soon)
