webcast synopsis:

The Revit API presentation addresses two main areas: an introduction to Revit programming for beginners, including a quick walkthrough of basic concepts, and an overview of the new functionality provided by the Revit 2013 API, of interest to both beginners and experienced developers. The first part covers the Revit SDK, documentation and samples, getting started, the basic structure and access to the Revit database, its elements, and their parameters. The second part presents a summary of the DevDays Online recording and examines some new Revit 2013 API features  in depth, including add-in integration features, the Idling and external events, Revit MEP and Structure API news and the new SDK samples.
