Learning XPages Part 54 : The End...

Back at the start of this series I mentioned three application objectives, the first was to build an XPages based phone book, the second was to give the notes client side of the application the Java Views look and feel and the third was to create an agent to sync the phone book with a Lotus Domino directory.
Throughout this series we have been working on part 1 of the application objectives, to build an XPages phonebook application, and at long last we have reached our goal, we now have a beautiful XPages application that follows the oneUI look and feel that you are familiar with in some other IBM products and allows the end user to look up peoples details etc. We have also created the ability for a phone book editor to be able to create locations and people right there from web interface.
If you have followed the entire series and tried to build the application yourself you would have been introduced to a wide variety of areas within the XPages, we have looked at many of the built-in controls and also created out own custom controls. We have seen how you don't need to learn advanced JavaScript to be able to write snippits of code, just learning the simple language operators will get you by and we have also seen how you can easily use your existing lotusscript and formula language skills within your javascript code.
I certainly hope that you have enjoyed the series and that the power of XPages is now a little clearer for you. I know I have learnt a lot by pulling apart the sample templates and presenting my findings to you in the series. I think I can safely say that my future Domino website development will be done in XPages rather then the traditional methods.
You can now download the final phone book application from OpenNTF here.
enjoy.

Its been great just following along reading the posts. Can't wait to be able to actually do the work in an 8.5 client/designer and then do some of my own work with Xpages based on your tutelage.
You are truly a great asset to our community!

Yesterday we supported IBM at a Lotusphere Comes to You event for a large customer. After I had given my presentation on XPages the developers were very excited and asked for sources to get started. We referred them to your blog for a great introduction.
