In this talk we will go over the Universal App Platform for Windows 10 and how it will reduce the amount of code you have to use to support different device types like phone, tablet and desktop. Since our time is limited, I will discuss only these types of devices, but the application that I will demo, will eventually support other device types, such as Xbox. 
The demo will feature and application I once published for WP 7, so this will not be Microsoft's demo code. Everything in my talk will be available on Github. For this demo, all the data will be in app, and if I have time, I will briefly go over Application Insights. This is Microsofts analytics platform that will help you gather all kinds of data on your application, including crashes.

Bring a laptop because this Meetup is hands on!
It would also be good to have installed the toolchain for various functional programming languages that interest you.
As a group we will come up with an idea of something to implement. We'll then break out to implement that thing in as many different functional languages as possible. At the end we'll come together to discuss our experiences and have a few folks show their solutions.
Warning: there will not be food provided at this event.

John Kary will return to the stage to present Part 2 of his "Functions" series. He will discuss the many flexible ways PHP allows defining and invoking functions, then introduce how functional programming concepts map, reduce and filter work in PHP. (30 minutes)
If you missed Part 1 of John's series on Functions the slides and video are online.
After the presentation will be an open Hack Night. Use the remaining hour to work on a project, discuss questions with other attendees, or experiment with a new library. This is also a perfect time to sit down with someone and have your development questions answered! John will also have some exercises you can complete to use techniques from his talk.
Light refreshments will be provided. Join us to meet new people, discuss PHP, and learn something new.
Our Evening Meeting Format
We love Web Development and all things PHP. Our meetings are often a little free-formed, but we shoot for this schedule:
6:00pm - Mingling / Meet and Greet
6:15pm - Presentation: Functions (Part 2) - Map, Reduce, Filter
6:45-8:00pm - Hack Night, open discussion
Your topic here? Contact us to speak!
All Developers Welcome!
We understand Web Developers often come from all backgrounds, and many work in more languages than PHP. Whether you're curious and just starting out, dabble in PHP on the weekends, write custom PHP on a daily basis, work in a framework like Symfony, Zend Framework, Silex, Slim, FuelPHP, CakePHP or customize CMS products like WordPress, Drupal or Joomla; our goal is that you will find something new, useful and thought provoking.
Interested in giving a presentation to the group, or demoing something you're working on? Contact one of the organizers through Meetup or talk after a monthly meeting to sign up!

Do you run a WordPress business, then this is the meeting for you. We are fortunate to have one of the WordCamp KC 2015 speakers, Heather Physioc, bringing a special presentation, the title is:
How to Make it as a Small WordPress Business
Heather Physioc, President of Tentacle Inbound, will speak to the Kansas City WordPress MeetUp group about tools and methodology for managing a small business on a bootstrapping business, including how to generate income and keep it coming in, find new clients, up-sell and cross-sell services, and more. Tentacle Inbound is a digital marketing firm in Kansas City serving small- and medium-sized businesses nationwide. Most Tentacle Inbound clients rely on WordPress as their CMS. Tweet your questions in advance of this talk to @HeatherPhysioc with the hashtag #WordPressKC.

We had an overwhelming response and participation for the first meetup in May. While we are a little delayed in the follow-up, we are ready for our second meetup.
We will be adding more topics to this meetup on July/29, as we get closer to the event. Currently, these are 2 topics -
* Topic: Arduino-llagio Fountain by Kevin Mayfield
Kevin will share his lessons learned while taking an Arduino project that blinked a single LED on a bread board, to his six pump, 4ft x 10ft outdoor fountain.

* Topic: Heart to Spark by Lance Feagan
Lance will discuss the need for Spark, and how it can be used along with IoT to solve important healthcare issues
Please RSVP soon as possible and respond to the questions in the invite, so we can plan for future meetups.

This presentation will introduce and demonstrate how batch processing programs are implemented with the Spring Batch framework.
While most companies develop and support online applications that supply a user experience, almost all companies have some kind of batch processing needs. Many legacy environments support batch processing using the mainframe and COBOL/RPG. Others roll out their own by writing headless Java applications and implementing a mechanism to schedule and run (i.e. Java main() methods, or use a Java scheduling framework such as Quartz). However, there is not a consistent job definition mechanism, and a challenge is presented in trying to process large data sets and files both efficiently and timely.
The Spring Batch framework has been designed to enable Java developers to process extremely large data sets with proven batch processing patterns using object oriented programming and the Spring framework.
