Node.js Design Patterns, 3rd Edition
In this book, we will show you how to implement a series of best practices and design patterns to help you create efficient and robust Node.js applications with ease. We kick off by exploring the basics of Node.js, analyzing its asynchronous event driven architecture and its fundamental design patterns. We then show you how to build asynchronous control flow patterns with callbacks, promises and async/await. Next, we dive into Node.js streams, unveiling their power and showing you how to use them at their full capacity. Following streams is an analysis of different creational, structural, and behavioral design patterns that take full advantage of JavaScript and Node.js. Lastly, the book dives into more advanced concepts such as Universal JavaScript, scalability and messaging patterns to help you build enterprise-grade distributed applications. Throughout the book, you'll see Node.js in action with the help of several real-life examples leveraging technologies such as LevelDB, Red ...

How To Code in Node.js
Node.js is a popular open-source runtime environment that can execute JavaScript outside of the browser. The Node runtime is commonly used for back-end web development, leveraging its asynchronous capabilities to create networking applications and web servers. Node is also a popular choice for building command line tools. In this book, you will go through exercises to learn the basics of how to code in Node.js, gaining skills that apply equally to back-end and full stack development in the process. By the end of this book you will be able to write programs that leverage Node's asynchronous code execution capabilities, complete with event emitters and listeners that will respond to user actions. Along the way you will learn how to debug Node applications using the built-in debugging utilities, as well as the Chrome browser's DevTools utilities. You will also learn how to write automated tests for your programs to ensure that any features that you add or change function as you expe ...

Rails on Containers
This book is designed to introduce you to using containers and Kubernetes for full-stack development. You'll learn how to develop a full-stack application using Ruby on Rails and PostgreSQL with Sidekiq, and how to manage them all - first with Docker, then with Docker Compose, and finally with Kubernetes. The topics that it covers include how to: - Get started developing an application about sharks using the Ruby on Rails framework; - Extend the application's data model to incorporate user submitted information about sharks; - Add the Stimulus JavaScript and Bootstrap CSS frameworks to your application to create visually appealing, interactive pages; - Integrate Sidekiq into your application to handle asynchronous data processing; - Containerize your application and streamline your development workflow using Docker Compose; - Migrate your Docker Compose development workflow to Kubernetes, finishing with a completely cloud-native application. ...

Ionic 4 Succinctly
Ionic 4 takes the original Ionic toolkit from a mobile-centric framework based on Angular to a powerful, web-based UI design system and app-development toolset that is JavaScript-framework agnostic. The increased performance of Ionic 4 components makes the framework ideal for developing progressive web apps (PWAs), which are in high demand and popularity these days. With Ionic 4 Succinctly, Ed Freitas will focus on progressive web apps and show you how you can use Ionic 4 to build one, using Vue as the JavaScript framework. ...

Learning Node.js
Node.js is an event-based, non-blocking, asynchronous I/O framework that uses Google's V8 JavaScript engine. It is used for developing applications that make heavy use of the ability to run JavaScript both on the client, as well as on server side and therefore benefit from the re-usability of code and the lack of context switching. It is open-source and cross-platform. Node.js applications are written in pure JavaScript and can be run within Node.js environment on Windows, Linux etc. It is an unofficial and free Node.js book created for educational purposes. All the content is extracted from Stack Overflow Documentation, which is written by many hardworking individuals at Stack Overflow. ...

How To Build a Website With CSS and HTML
This project-based eBook will introduce you to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), a stylesheet language used to control the presentation of websites, by building a personal website using our demonstration site as a model. Though our demonstration site features Sammy the Shark, you can switch out Sammy's information with your own if you wish to personalize your site. Alongside HTML and JavaScript, CSS is one of the core technologies of the World Wide Web. If you have some understanding of HTML and are looking to grow your front-end development skills, learning CSS is a great next step. The first half of this book will introduce CSS through hands-on exercises and the second half of the tutorial series will provide steps for recreating the demonstration website. By the end of this CSS book, you will have files ready for deploying a website to the cloud, as well as an understanding of how to continue modifying the site's design with HTML and CSS. You will also have a foundation for lea ...

Understanding the DOM
JavaScript is the de facto programming language of the web, but the language itself does not include any built-in method for working with input/output (I/O), such as graphics display and sound. Instead, the web browser provides an API for accessing the HTML document in a tree structure known as the Document Object Model (DOM). The combination of JavaScript and the DOM is what allows us to create interactive, dynamic websites. Many modern frameworks, such as React, Vue, and Svelte abstract away much of the DOM from the developer, but frameworks also use the DOM under the hood. The JavaScript library jQuery was also created to make working with the DOM easier, but the modern development practice is to work with the DOM directly. In order to be a proficient web developer, having a deep understanding of what the DOM is and how to work with it is essential. The goal of this book is to provide a base understanding of the DOM, as well as explore examples of the most common and useful metho ...
