AmiWest 2015 DevCon
At AmiWest 2015 we are returning to a more formal approach to helping all the eager Amiga developers out there. The plan is to make the Amiga DevCon 2015 similar to the DevCon's of old with fresh articles explaining how to use all those neat new features in AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition.
It all starts with downloading and installing the AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition SDK. See AmiWest Setup for complete details on how to get ready.
Syllabus
We are aiming to cover the following topics:
- AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition SDK overview and changes
- Plenty has changed and we will review those changes in detail
- Review Release Notes
- RTG graphics and the unified graphics.library API
- Gone are the days of Picasso 96 versus CyberGraphX
