Spring framework

The Spring Framework has pumped new life into Java development. In the period immediately following the dot com bubble burst, Java applications were facing an uncertain future. The initial promises of J2EE had been thoroughly debunked, .NET was poised to offer a strong alternative, and the industry was generally sobering. Companies began to expect more application for less money and effort, and it wasn’t certain that the J2EE platform would be able to deliver.

Desarrollo de aplicaciones Web con Django

Django is a high-level Python web application framework designed to support the development of dynamic web sites, web applications, and web services. It is designed to promote rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Therefore, it lets you build high-performing and elegant web applications quickly. In this book you will learn about employing this MVC web framework, which is written in Python—a powerful and popular programming language. The book emphasizes utilizing Django and Python to create a Web 2.0 bookmark-sharing application, with many common features found in the Web 2.0 sites these days. The book follows a tutorial style to introduce concepts and explain solutions to problems. It is not meant to be a reference manual for Python or Django. Django will be explained as we build features throughout the chapters, until we realize our goal of having a working Web 2.0 application for storing and sharing bookmarks.

All of the code that you write during the course of going through this book is standards compliant.

HTML5 and CSS3 help lay the groundwork for the next generation of web applications. They let us build sites that are simpler to develop, easier to maintain, and more user-friendly. HTML5 has new elements for defining site structure and embedding content, which means we don’t have to resort to extra markup or plug-ins. CSS3 provides advanced selectors, graphical enhancements, and better font support that makes our sites more visually appealing without using font image replacement techniques, complex JavaScript, or graphics tools. Improved accessibility support will improve Ajax applications for people with disabilities, and offline support lets us start building working applications that don’t need an Internet connection.

Ext JS was developed by a unified team of programmers working toward a single goal—to provide a consistent core user interface and interaction library. Because of this, the code used for different functionalities and widgets is more coherent than in some other JavaScript libraries. Ext JS really shines in making web applications easyto- use and intuitive. If you are a web application developer, it's a great library to have in your arsenal.
