| 28th April 2023 7:00 pm AEST | Toufiq Mohammed | Senior Product Manager Oracle APEX Application Development Lifecycle Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) involve continuous testing, integration, and deployment of code changes, ensuring that the software is always up-to-date and can be released to production quickly and with confidence. In this session, we will start with understanding the architecture of a typical APEX Project and how best practices of CI/CD can be adopted when building applications using Oracle APEX. We will explore the Team Development module available in Oracle APEX, using which teams can track bugs and features to plan milestones. We will also discuss how you can create re-installable artefacts using the available tools and how teams can leverage various version control systems to manage the history of changes in APEX applications. We will also touch on how to maintain separate environments for Dev, Test and Prod and seamlessly move your APEX applications and database objects between these environments during the development phase. Finally, we will also script and automate your APEX applications’ build, test and deployment process. | Registrations opening soon |

| APEX Plug-in Development Done Right by Zsolt Angyal Plug-ins have the ability to make developer's lives easier. Not only can they be used to introduce features that APEX lacks out of the box, but they're also great at modularizing already existing functionality into reusable components, saving time and cutting down on future maintenance costs. It's not a surprise that a great number of APEX Applications includes at least one, but rather more, homemade or 3rd party plug-ins. In this session I will discuss many of the lessons I've learned contributing to the biggest open-source APEX plug-in framework in the community, FOS. We will look at the important aspects of performance, security, consistency, extensibility and version-control across multiple plug-ins, but also at the aspects of documentation and presentation, all of which are imperative in building a successful plug-in. After the session the audience can ensure that they're on the right track either picking the right plug-in for the job, or professional building their own.

| Process Automation functionality within Oracle APEX by Ralf Mueller With the release of Oracle APEX 22.1, a journey towards enabling Process Automation functionality within Oracle APEX has started. The new Approvals Component in Oracle APEX 22.1 offers basic Task Management and streamlines Approvals in APEX apps and Workflows under a new Unified Task List. In this session we give an overview and demo of the Approvals Component and how it can be used in applications and provide an outlook on future Workflow functionality within Oracle APEX.

| APEX 22.1: Progressive Web Apps by Vincent Morneau In the last year, Oracle APEX introduced support for Progressive Web App (PWA) technology. This is the beginning of a long-term commitment to help APEX developers create apps with deeper integration into desktop and mobile devices. This session will cover what a PWA is and how it might benefit an APEX app. It will demonstrate what an APEX PWA can achieve now and present a roadmap for 2023 and beyond.

| Confirm & Alert by Oliver Lemm Confirm and alert are existing since the beginning of Javascript. Due the last versions of APEX the functionality was enhanced, especially with the new integrated alert and confirm actions in APEX 21.2. But what does it mean and what do we have to change? Is it now possible to use alert and confirm in a well looking format without any custom code? What about the APEX JavaScript API changes for these functions? Does the JavaScript Callback mechanique has any impact on this change? Even if you think it's a no brainer, there are some useful hints how to use this changed feature.

| Building process-oriented apps with Oracle APEX and Flows for APEX 22.1 by Niels de Bruijn Flows for APEX is an open source extension of Oracle APEX with which you can model and run business processes based on BPMN 2.0. In this session, I will first give an overview of Flows for APEX and focus on the new features that came with 22.1. After this, we are going to look at how to integrate your BPMN model with APEX using the plug-ins that ship with Flows for APEX. APEX Special Series 2022 Recording | 14/09/2022 |
