OpenLaszlo 4 Programming Tutorial
OpenLaszlo architect and ultimate insider Adam Wolff has recorded a screencast version of his wonderful OpenLaszlo programming tutorial, available below. Besides being a tour de force of ‘vim’ text-editing acrobatics, this tutorial demonstrates construction of a simple client-server application in OpenLaszlo 4, and highlights several of the most exciting features of the OL4 release. The video is about 40 minutes long, and best viewed at full resolution. Enjoy!

Nice Job!!
I hope there are more to come. I enjoyed the comments you made about how OL4 runs in dhtml as well as Flash. That’s really exciting!
Keep it coming!

Interesting but I need an IDE, I’d like design graphical interfaces with a graphical tool. And I dont want to learn tag names to produce graphical interfaces and his properties.

I am very impressed. This is my first look into openlaszlo. Before going anywhere into demos etc. as a developer I headed straight for this video which is a programming tutorial. I am so bowled away that I am going to check out the licensing policy here and start with some development ASAP.
I won’t have to hire a flash developer anytime soon. Though I still need to figure out how a flash designer can modify the look and feel on the client. It does help abstract the programming and output essential for web development. I am going to the forums . Tada

[…] Ihr kennt OpenLaszlo und die Programmiersprache LZX noch nicht? Adam Wolff hat ein hervorragendes Videotutorial als Schnelleinstieg in die OpenLaszlo Entwicklung erstellt, das seit ein paar Wochen im OpenLaszlo Blog verfügbar ist. Der Erfolg des Videos hat Jim Grandy davon überzeugt, wie wichtig Screencasts für uns sind, was mich persönlich sehr freut. Ihr könnt also damit rechnen, das es in Zukunft mehr Videotutorials vom OpenLaszlo Team gibt. […]

The tutorial is great, especially for newbies like me! I’m very interested in the Google Map integration. Is there a way I can have a copy of the full source (restdata.jsp, htmlview.lzx, etc.) mentioned in the tutorial ?

Excellent tutorial and what an excellent product.
Please make more of these tutorials!!
I have been working with a product called Documentum (which oddly enough shares an almost identical logo) for more than 10 years, I can see this product being highly commercially viable within this field.

Devshots returns Google search results, but emphasize on programming related sites and resources. So the search result will be smart and accurate.

Sebo, OpenLaszlo is available from the main OpenLaszlo website, www.openlaszlo.org, from the downloads page.
Ioan, blip.tv serves the screencast in either FLV (Flash video) or Quicktime. Can you view other blip.tv content? If not, perhaps there is a blip.tv compatibility and we’ll join you in letting them know.

[…] Adobe is certainly in the running. Adobe already benefits from a huge adoption rate of flash players and a lot of new web applications are built to run in flash. The other day, I got a demo from a friend who is building an application for a new web startup. He built it using openlaszlo, an open source development framework for Adobe Flash and native web browser Dynamic HTML. It is clean an snappy and has great interactive animations. […]

KUDOS on the presentation; as well as making us aware of features in your new release. Thank you so much for the clarity your bring to the product demo. I think it will quickly grow its popularity because of the talent applied to this project. Very Cool. I’m a newbee, but feel this could be the tool I MUST have to get my work done in a timely manner.

[…] After watching the OpenLaszlo 4 Programming Tutorial Screencast, I’m convinced that Laszlo is more capable than Flex, and there is less proprietary code to learn since you use Javascript instead of Actionscript. It’s all ECMA and XML, so I guess at some point it becomes 6 vs. a half dozen, but I will mention one small caveat: iPhone compatible. Oh yes, I’ve seen the first iPhone app in Laszlo, and it’s pretty and touch-screen happy. (I think it goes without saying that if it works on iPhone, it can work with all major browsers) […]

Excellent!!!
I looked at OL about a year ago and unfortunately lost interest. Now I need to develop an application and was comparing Flex and OL. Definitely going with OL. I’ve done some PHP development some time back and now will have to learn LZX, JS, XML and XPath.
One major request. TRAINING materials
I know there are training courses on offer but like a LOT of OL adopters, I don’t stay in the US (Cape Town, South Africa). PLEASE make these courses available on DVD or downloadable FLV like the demo….I’m more than willing to pay for it as I learn a lot quickier watching a course/video than reading thru a manual and can’t wait to get started.
Again, EXCELLENT product
Thanks

Does anyone know if it’s generated automatically or give me sample of htmlview.lzx, restdata.jsp map.html in that case. That points were not clear for me. sylux@op.pl

OpenLaszlo has got a good screencast, which is representative for all of these frameworks. Like this article?

I want to know how to deploy an OpenLaszlo as DHTML without having to use a Servlet, that means, I want to generate directly the DHTML from the LZX file, in order to serve it from a classical Web server (i.e. Apache).
Best regards.

This is my first look at Laszlo… and I am impressed.
The tutorial is excellent and presentation is awesome!
The tutorial is very simeple and still has touched upon the topics like event handling, implementing constraints, lazy replication and the OO features of Lazlo… Awesome!
I looked at Adobe Flex and now I looked at OpenLaszlo… it makes no sense to look at Flex or Silverlight anymore.
