What you need for this book

For you to get the most out of this book, we recommend you to go along with the projects and code, so for this, you would need to have access to some sort of development device, be it a laptop or desktop. We recommend these, so that you can get the most out of the book by developing locally. You could, however, do this from your tablet device as well using one of the cloud based IDE systems such as jsFiddle, Codeanywhere, and so on. We will walk you through setting up a powerful and free environment with Aptana Studio and XAMPP.
