Preface
"JavaScript is the only language that I'm aware of that people feel they don't need to learn before they start using it." | ||
| --Douglas Crockford | ||
The book begins by covering an enterprise-level application with the microservices architecture, using Node.js to build web services. As we move forward, the book shows you how to build a browser-browser application using WebRTC. We then focus on building a real-time web application with WebSockets.
When you've gained a solid grip on the different architectures, you'll see how to write better reactive code using functional reactive programming (FRP). Then, we'll move onto what's new in Bootstrap 4 and how it makes it easier then ever to build responsive sites. As we near the end of this book, you'll see how to build a modern single-page application that builds on the innovative component-based architecture using React and Angular 2.
After reading this book, you will have a solid knowledge of the latest JavaScript techniques, tools, and architecture required to build modern web apps.
