Hands-On Cloud Development with WildFly
The book starts by introducing you to WildFly Swarm - a tool that allows you to create runnable microservices from Java EE components. You'll learn the basics of Swarm operation - creating microservices containing only the parts of enterprise runtime needed in a specific case. Later, you'll learn how to configure and test those services. In order to deploy our services in the cloud, we'll use OpenShift. You'll get to know basic information on its architecture, features, and relationship to Docker and Kubernetes. Later, you'll learn how to deploy and configure your services to run in the OpenShift cloud. In the last part of the book, you'll see how to make your application production-ready. You'll find out how to configure continuous integration for your services using Jenkins, make your application resistant to network failures using Hystrix, and how to secure them using Keycloak. By the end of the book, you'll have a functional example application and will have practical know ...

Hands-On Full-Stack Development with Swift
Making Swift an open-source language enabled it to share code between a native app and a server. Building a scalable and secure server backend opens up new possibilities, such as building an entire application written in one language - Swift. This book gives you a detailed walk-through of tasks such as developing a native shopping list app with Swift and creating a full-stack backend using Vapor (which serves as an API server for the mobile app). You'll also discover how to build a web server to support dynamic web pages in browsers, thereby creating a rich application experience. You'll begin by planning and then building a native iOS app using Swift. Then, you'll get to grips with building web pages and creating web views of your native app using Vapor. To put things into perspective, you'll learn how to build an entire full-stack web application and an API server for your native mobile app, followed by learning how to deploy the app to the cloud, and add registration and authe ...

Elm Web Development
Web development with JavaScript usually involves dealing with performance and maintenance issues. JavaScript fatigue makes it difficult for many developers to keep up with the increasing complexity posed by the multitude of JavaScript frameworks with changing versions, and the need to use different tools such as task runners, module bundlers, compilers, testing suites, linting and debuggers. Elm is an easy-to-learn, functional programming language that simplifies web development by eliminating the complexity associated with using JavaScript for web development. Elm is a statically typed language and thus makes a front end web developer's life easier by preventing run-time errors. You will begin by seeing the bigger picture of where Elm fits into the web development world and learning the basics of Elm programming. Firstly, you will get a taste for web development with Elm by developing a simple fizz-buzz app. Next you will get hands-on with advanced Elm concepts as you develop your ...
