PHPNW February 2010 February 2, 2010

This month we will be having a talk from Lorna Mitchell on "Best Practices in Web Service Design". This session is aimed at programmers, architects and analysts alike, delving into some examples of ways to write really excellent and useful services. We'll cover selecting the right service type to use and how to design a flexible, maintainable system with an outward-facing API that will have your users easily utilising its features. There will be tips and tricks on helping minimise user confusion (and resulting bug reports) and how to achieve robust services and happy users who cite your application as their "must-have".

PHPNW (PHP North West) is a group focussing on the PHP web development language in the North-of-England.
