With AngularJS, you can quickly build client-side applications that run well on any desktop or mobile platform, using REST web services for backend processes. You may have heard that the learning curve for this JavaScript MVC framework is too steep, but that's not the case. This practical guide provides a hands-on approach to learning AngularJS that will have you building high-quality applications and websites in no time.

Along with a conceptual understanding of the framework, you'll also gain direct experience with AngularJS by building a sample application throughout the book. If...

You don't have to accept slow Ruby or Rails performance. In this comprehensive guide to Ruby optimization, you'll learn how to write faster Ruby code--but that's just the beginning. See exactly what makes Ruby and Rails code slow, and how to fix it. Alex Dymo will guide you through perils of memory and CPU optimization, profiling, measuring, performance testing, garbage collection, and tuning. You'll find that all those -hard- things aren't so difficult after all, and your code will run orders of magnitude faster.

This is the first book ever that consolidates all the Ruby...

Debunk the myth that JavaScript is not easily testable. Whether you use Node.js, Express, MongoDB, jQuery, AngularJS, or directly manipulate the DOM, you can test-drive JavaScript. Learn the craft of writing meaningful, deterministic automated tests with Karma, Mocha, and Chai. Test asynchronous JavaScript, decouple and properly mock out dependencies, measure code coverage, and create lightweight modular designs of both server-side and client-side code. Your investment in writing tests will pay high dividends as you create code that's predictable and cost-effective to...

Modern applications are constantly sending, receiving, and reacting to streams of data including internal messages, user and system events, and sensor input. Reactive Extensions (Rx) is a .NET library that abstracts away the sources of events and provides tools to effectively manage concerns like concurrency, scalability, error handling, and performance. Rx includes more than 600 operators with variants that can composed together to build reactive client and server-side applications that handle events asynchronously in a way that maximizes responsiveness, resiliency, and elasticity.

How often do you hear people say things like this? -Our JavaScript is a mess, but we're thinking about using framework of the month].-

Like it or not, JavaScript is not going away. No matter what framework or -compiles-to-js- language or library you use, bugs and performance concerns will always be an issue if the underlying quality of your JavaScript is poor. Rewrites, including porting to the framework of the month, are terribly expensive and unpredictable. The bugs won't magically go away, and can happily reproduce themselves in a new context. To complicate things further,...
