This screencast continues from the work I demonstrated in a previous screencast:
http://channel9.msdn.com/Showpost.aspx?postid=344711
When implemented a Model-View-Presenter pattern client-side in JavaScript there is a need to get data from the server. Rather than make this divide explicit with HTTP request, etc, I have used the idea of a model object that moves between the client and server.
So the programmer simply writes the client and server pieces of functionality and lets my framework do the plumbing.
I use code generation and Script# to make writing a client-side web app much more seemless than the usual javascript/XML/JSON/web service madness.
I'm developing the ideas shown here in a project at the moment. If there is sufficient interest I may extract a framework to give to the community.
How do people feel about this approach to web development? What kinds of additions/modifications should be made?
p.s. I have a bit of a cold at the moment, so sorry for the croaky voice in the recording!

The code is now online here:

You will also need to install my code generator tool. This is used to generate code from XML files.

Interesting work. I'm playing around with it now. I'd like to use something similar in my work, but I'm concerned about using script# without it being open-sourced or officially released.
What do you think?
Thanks for the screencasts,
Hugh Lynch
I'm going to keep using it for now. Nikhil does at least release new versions semi-regularly. Please contact him yourself as well to maintain community pressure to open source Script#!
