As individuals and teams starting building new applications using new technologies like EGL, an opportunity also arises to change how you do development. Many teams inside IBM have started to adopt the Agile methodology and have already seen marked benefits.

Take the time and consider changing the way you work. There's a growing community around Agile and a significant amount of material is already available. For a great starting reference check out the latest Agile conference held in Toronto Canada earlier this summer:

Welcome

Posted by yantzi May 9, 2008


Hi, and welcome to the Extending RPG Applications to the Web with EGL blog. This is a blog by some of the IBM i application development tools team members at the IBM Toronto Lab. We've all been involved with RPG and related application development tools for 10+ years (each of us, not cumulative!)

We all believe in using the right tool for the right job. RPG is a very powerful business language on the IBM i. EGL is a powerful language for working with new technologies such as AJAX, JavaServer Faces (JSF)and Web services. So this blog will focus on using the two together; taking business logic written in RPG and providing a Web user interface or Web service interface to it using EGL.

To that end, we hope to provide tips, techniques, stories, pointers and probably even a few questions in this blog. If you are an RPG developer and are using (or looking to use) EGL, we encourage you to comment on blog postings.

The Bloggers,

Claus, George F, George V, Satish, and Don
