JavaScript for .NET Developers

Chapter 1. JavaScript for Modern Web Applications

The growth in web development evolved with a rapid pace in recent years. Most of the business applications that developed on a desktop platform are now shifted to the web platform, and the reason is the ease of access and continuous addition of rich capabilities on the web platform. Typically, any web application that provides the characteristics of the desktop applications is considered as rich web application. Thus, it involves extensive use of JavaScript and its frameworks and libraries.

JavaScript plays an important role in developing rich applications and allows developers to do less server-side post-backs and call server-side functions through ajaxified requests. Not only this, but now many companies and communities are developing good frameworks such as Angular, Knockout, ReactJS, and so on to bring state-of-the-art and groundbreaking capabilities. Microsoft has also released the WinJS library to access mobile native device features such as camera, storage, and so on from a web application running on mobile browsers. myNFC is also a great JavaScript library that allows developers to create applications for smartphones.

Description

If you want to improve responsiveness or the UX in your ASP.NET applications, JavaScript can be a life saver. In an age where server-side operations have shifted to the client, being able to handle JavaScript with confidence and fluency is vital for ASP.NET developers. There’s no point trying to fight it, so start learning with this book. Make sure your projects exceed user expectations. Begin by getting stuck into the basics of JavaScript, and explore the language in the context of ASP.NET Core. You’ll then find out how to put the principles into practice, as you learn how to develop a basic ASP.NET application using Angular 2 and TypeScript. You’ll also develop essential skills required to develop responsive apps, with a little help from AJAX, ensuring that you’re building projects that can be easily accessed across different devices. With guidance on Node.js and some neat techniques to test and debug a range of JavaScript libraries in Visual Studio, you’ll soon be well on your way to combining JavaScript with ASP.NET in a way that’s capable of meeting the challenges of modern web development head-on.

I'm a .NET MVP and was the technical reviewer for this book. I really appreciated reviewing it. I believe it will help C# and VB.NET developpers get quickly up to speed on the basics. Then, it will give them a solid understanding of the language specifics and the Javascript ecosystem (jquery, SPA's). And finally, it will show them the path of how to develop modern apps with Javascript on the client, server and even desktop.I hope you'll find it as useful as I did.
