The objective of this conference is to equip attendees with the information and tools they need to create useful Amiga software. Last year at AmiWest 2012, we covered a lot of the basics of AmigaOS. This year, I hope we can expand upon that and create some applications.

The focus will be on extending a GUI based application using AmigaOS services. Some examples include an ARexx port, using Application Library, using Commodities Library, using AmiDock and using Workbench. Depending on time, other topics could be discussed including networking, video and sound.
