Learning Dart, 2/e（Paperback）

Learn to develop high performance applications with Dart 1.10

About This Book

• Develop apps for the modern web using Dart and HTML5
• Clarify and shorten your Dart code using enums
• Build a complex UI for business applications with Dart's Polymer framework, based on web components

Who This Book Is For

If you want to become a developer for the modern web, or wish to add Dart to your tool belt, then this book is for you. The book assumes you have basic HTML experience and know how web applications work. Some previous programming experience, preferably in a modern language like C#, Java, Python, Ruby or JavaScript, will give you a head start. You can work with Dart on your preferred platform, be it Linux, Mac OS X or Windows.

What You Will Learn

• Structure your code using functions, classes, generics, packages and libraries
• Use the power of modern browsers to process and store data
• Make games by drawing, and using audio and video in the browser
• Develop an application with a model-driven and spiral-paced approach
• Discover the Observatory tools for profiling memory and CPU usage of Dart programs
• Store your app's data in MySQL and MongoDB through Dart
• Build powerful HTML5 forms, validate and store data in local storage, and use web components to build your own user interface
• Run your Dart server on an App Engine Managed VM

In Detail

Dart is an open source programming language for the web, developed at Google, with a steadily growing community. It is a single language for both client and server, appropriate for the full range of devices on the web – including phones, tablets, laptops, and servers. It encompasses the lessons of the last two decades of web programming.

This book will give you a thorough overview of Dart, taking you through its ecosystem, syntax, and development principles.

With this book, you will build web games using HTML5, audio, and video, and also dive into processing and displaying data in HTML5 forms with Dart. You will also learn how web components fit together with HTML5, and how to apply them in business web applications of the future. You will discover how to store data on the client, communicate data between client and server with JSON, and store JSON data with MongoDB and MySQL.

Stop solving new challenges with the same old tools – let Dart show you a whole new way.

Style and approach

This book provides you a project-based approach, with everything you need to start or enhance your career in the future of web development with Dart. It follows the spiral approach: each project builds up in successive spirals, adding new features in each step.

學習使用Dart 1.10開發高效能應用程式

關於本書
- 使用Dart和HTML5開發現代網頁應用程式
- 使用枚舉來簡化和縮短Dart程式碼
- 使用Dart的Polymer框架（基於網頁元件）為商業應用程式建立複雜的使用者介面

本書適合對現代網頁開發有興趣的讀者，或希望將Dart加入工具箱的讀者。本書假設讀者具備基本的HTML經驗，並了解網頁應用程式的運作方式。如果您具備先前的程式設計經驗，尤其是在像C＃、Java、Python、Ruby或JavaScript這樣的現代語言方面，將有助於您更快上手。您可以在Linux、Mac OS X或Windows上使用Dart進行開發。

您將學到什麼
- 使用函數、類別、泛型、套件和庫來結構化程式碼
- 利用現代瀏覽器的功能處理和儲存資料
- 在瀏覽器中繪製遊戲，並使用音訊和影片
- 以模型驅動和螺旋式進行開發
- 使用Dart的Observatory工具來分析記憶體和CPU使用情況
- 透過Dart將應用程式資料儲存於MySQL和MongoDB
- 建立強大的HTML5表單，驗證並儲存資料於本地儲存，並使用網頁元件建立自己的使用者介面
- 在App Engine Managed VM上執行Dart伺服器

詳細內容
Dart是一種開源的網頁程式語言，由Google開發，擁有不斷增長的社群。它是一種適用於網頁上各種設備（包括手機、平板、筆記型電腦和伺服器）的單一語言，涵蓋了過去二十年網頁程式設計的經驗教訓。

本書將全面介紹Dart，帶您了解其生態系統、語法和開發原則。

透過本書，您將使用HTML5、音訊和影片建立網頁遊戲，並深入研究使用Dart在HTML5表單中處理和顯示資料。您還將學習網頁元件如何與HTML5結合，以及如何在未來的商業網頁應用程式中應用它們。您將發現如何在客戶端儲存資料，使用JSON在客戶端和伺服器之間傳輸資料，以及如何使用MongoDB和MySQL儲存JSON資料。

不要再用相同的舊工具解決新挑戰，讓Dart帶給您全新的方式。

風格和方法
本書以專案為基礎的方法，提供您開始或提升在Dart網頁開發未來職業生涯所需的一切。它遵循螺旋式方法：每個專案在每個步驟中逐漸增加新功能。
