Apps are a huge part of our lives from desktop to mobile phones. As the expression goes if you need something done, no matter what it happens to be, “there is an app for that”. As wild as that sounds it is more often true, than not. The App industry is now a multibillion-dollar movement and it does not show any signs of slowing.

The next question is what does this have to do with Drupal? You maybe thinking to yourself, Drupal is powerful, but how can it compete in the apps space? This session will explore the new possibilities of using Drupal with Adobe Air and potentially other cross-operating systems.
