Modern web application user interface design requires rapid development and proven results. jQuery UI, a trusted suite of official plugins for the jQuery JavaScript library, gives you a solid platform on which to build rich and engaging interfaces with maximum compatibility, stability, and a minimum of time and effort. jQuery UI has a series of ready-made, great looking user interface widgets, and a comprehensive set of core interaction helpers designed to be implemented in a consistent and developer-friendly way. With all this, the amount of code that you need to write personally to take a project from conception to completion is drastically reduced. Specially revised for version 1.7 of jQuery, this book has been written to maximize your experience with the library by breaking down each component and walking you through examples that progressively build upon your knowledge, taking you from beginner to advanced usage in a series of easy-to-follow steps.

The jQuery library has taken the frontend development world by storm. Its dead-simple syntax makes once-complicated tasks downright trivial—enjoyable, even. Many a developer has been quickly seduced by its elegance and clarity. If you’ve started using the library, you’re already adding rich, interactive experiences to your projects. Getting started is easy, but as is the case with many of the tools we use to develop websites, it can take months or even years to fully appreciate the breadth and depth of the jQuery library. The library is chock-full of features you might never have known to wish for. Once you know about them, they can dramatically change how you approach the problems you’re called upon to solve. The goal of this cookbook is to expose you, dear reader, to the patterns and practices of some of the leading frontend developers who use jQuery in their everyday projects. Over the course of 18 chapters, they’ll guide you through solutions to problems that range from straightforward to complex. Whether you’re a jQuery newcomer or a grizzled JavaScript veteran, you’re likely to gain new insight into harnessing the full power of jQuery to create compelling, robust, high-performance user interfaces.

jQuery is a popular JavaScript library that is extensible using plug-ins. Some plug-ins,specifically those for managing the user interface, have been collected together in thejQuery UI library. These plug-ins help facilitate interaction with the user, and these interactions are simpler to manage if you use jQuery only.

JavaScript is at a turning point. The language and those who program with it have matured. People are starting to realize that it is a complex subject, worthy of further study. Design patterns have been used in programming for years. They were first formally documented in Design Patterns by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and John Vlissides (affectionately known as the Gang of Four) and have been applied to countless object-oriented languages. Part of the appeal of design patterns is that they can be used uniformly over many different languages and syntaxes. The basic structure stays the same; only the details change. It is fairly easy, for instance, to take a pattern implemented in Java and convert it to C++.

JavaScript Ninja

If you are reading this book, you know that there is nothing simple about creating effective and cross-browser JavaScript code. In addition to the normal challenges of writing clean code, we have the added complexity of dealing with obtuse browser differences and complexities. To deal with these challenges, JavaScript developers frequently capture sets of common and reusable functionality in the form of JavaScript libraries. These libraries vary widely in approach, content and complexity, but one constant remains: they need to be easy to use, incur the least amount of overhead, and be able to work across all browsers that we wish to target.

Your business needs a mobile strategy, but where do you start? Head First Mobile Web shows how to use the web tech- nology you’re already familiar with to make sites and apps that work on any device of any size.

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.

Behavior-Driven Development

All programmers want their code to work the way they intended. Jasmine, a popular testing framework for the JavaScript programming language, allows you to achieve that goal. Through coded specifications, Jasmine helps make your JavaScript work exactly how it’s supposed to. In this book, we’ll explore Jasmine in detail, from its basic concepts to its advanced features. This book aims to explain the concepts of testing and test-driven development, as well as why they’re useful. It then aims to dive into Jasmine and explain how it can help programmers test their JavaScript code. By the end of this book, I aim to give readers an understanding of Jasmine’s concepts and syntax.

Ajax

Ajax technologies themselves are all client side, the differences extend all the way down to the server. This book is mainly about client-side programming, and most of the code examples that you’ll find in here are JavaScript. The principles of Ajax decouple the client from the server beautifully, and can be used with any server-side language. We’ve therefore got a broad audience to address and have opted to present our server-side code in a mixture of languages: PHP, Java, C#, and Visual Basic .NET. More importantly, though, we’ve tried to keep the server-side code relatively simple and implementation-agnostic, so that you can port it to whatever environment you choose. Where we do use language-specific features, we explain them in enough detail for those unfamiliar with that particular environment to figure out what we’re doing.

Web Programming

In this book, we will be exploring Django JavaScript integration and build an Ajax application using jQuery. We will build a Web 2.0 intranet employee directory, and we will aim for a solution that is Pythonic in more ways than one.

Dynamic web applications and real-time updates with no page refresh, scalable, high performance, and very rich interfaces are increasingly dominating the market for web development today with a new way to develop web content, called Single Page Web Application (SPA). This kind of development allows you to write less server-side code and more client-side code, which is sometimes focused on JavaScript, providing a better user experience with a new way to interact with the application. Products such as Gmail, Trello, and Groupon are examples of successful SPA development.
