Become Mashter of Your Domain.
Everyone mashes. Or at least they think they do. But expert mashers know that the complexity (and usefulness) of putting apartments for rent on a Google Map doesn't begin to compare to an SAP-Oracle-Salesforce.com-mainframe mashup. That's why we created the Mashup Developer Community (MDC) and we hope that's why you are here.
The MDC has plenty of resources to help kick start your mashing. Here's the stuff most enterprise mashers need to get started:
1. Download the Presto Developer Edition. (If you haven't registered, you'll need to do so to get the software.)
2. Get Presto installed. If you aren't the kind to read the manual, we've got a short video series on installation.
3. Create your first mashup using Presto Wires. There are couple of short video tutorials to help you along.
4. Bring us your questions and ideas. We'd be happy to discuss anything mashupy with you in the forums.
And once you've created that uber-mashup, we'd love it if you shared your mashups with us. Send us the code, send us a video, or even shout out the actual mashup/mashlet URL. Use the the 'Share Your Mashups' page to do that. If if your uber-mashup is really good, we'll make it a permanent addition to the MDC!
And the MDC has more to help. But you probably hate reading as much as we do. We suggest you hit the MDC homepage and watch the site tour video. Welcome to the MDC!
