Dear widget developers.
I love the euthosiam about the topic and see that more guideance would be greatly benefit the whole community.
Let's try; if we can get the Community team, MVP's and Mendix training department get together to organize a session for current widget developers that want to share theire knowledge.
I am willing to participate by doing some code review on published widgets and present some best practices.
Cheers,
Andries

I would participate as well, but first have to walk through theses two:

Hi Marnix,
Indeed there has been a classroom workshop at Mendix. It isn't scheduled at the moment, since schedule & demand was out of sync. If there are more interested in a workshop, we might try to get it scheduled.
So who's interested? (let's start with the NL region)
Edit: be aware that knowledge of JScript, HTML etc.. is a prerequisites.
Rene
I would like to be there as well if the scope goes beyond a basic training and we actually review widgets and dive into best practices. I created a couple of widgets myself and am, as Andries, happy to share that during a session if René is looking for 'victims' ;).
Hi Rene,
I'm also interested in participating in the workshop and I think a few of my colleagues would be to.
Jeffrey
I am also interested.
Regards,
Ronald
I'm interested aswell, and I'm sure more of TimeSeries would be interested!
Hi Rene,
I am interested as well.
I personally already did the widget workshop the very first time it was available. Looking back at what I learned I think most of that is available through the "documentation" pages right now. So if there is going to be a new workshop I would really like it to be more of a hands-on tutoring experience where there are maybe 1 or 2 expert mendix widget developers that can help realise ideas.
But yeah I'm interested in whatever we can come up with to improve the learnability of creating widgets, because right now I find the learning curve to be a bit steep.
