This weekend was Design 4 Drupal Boston and Patrick Macom and I presented two exciting sessions on Raphaël JS, an interactive drawing library for vector graphics on the web. The two back-to-back sessions covered the basics of the Raphaël JS API in the talk, "Outside the Garden: Intro to Raphaël JS" and then moved into advanced integration with Drupal in, "The Drop and the Painter: Drupal and Raphaël JS."
Steven Merrill also lead a Birds of a Feather session on Trends in Front-End Performance and Front-End Performance Metrics. You can see his rough outline here: http://tha.cm/d4d-front-end-performance-bof
Below are our presentations from the event and we'll update with links to the video when they're made available.
