Hands-On Full Stack Web Development with Aurelia

Develop rich and scalable applications with the new MEAN Stack

Key Features

• Learn how to construct modern web applications with Node.js, Express.js, MondoDB, and Aurelia.
• Harness the power of the JavaScript on the client as well as server side to build your full stack applications.
• Gain deep and practical understanding of real-time web applications with real-worl examples

Book Description

The book beings with the review o f basic concepts about JavaScript as main code language and explain how it works under the lights. You will then quickly move on to learn how to create beautiful and intuitive applications by using the Aurelia-Materialize Plugin, which implements the Material Design Approach. Once the application, FIFA World Cup 2018 App, is fully configured, so it's time to add some functionality, you will start creating the first components through TDD practices. You will then create the backend services for process and store all the user data and learn how to expose these to be consumed by the web application.

Moving on, you will understand and explore the NoSQL paradigm and implement it using one of the most popular NoSQL databases, MongoDB, with some awesome libraries to make the experience very comfortable and useful. Next, you will add some advanced behavior to our components; from manage the life cycle in a proper way to use dynamic binding, fields' validations and custom service layer.

You will integrate our application to Google OAuth Service and learn best practices to secure your applications. You will also write integration and UI Testing scripts to create high quality Aurelia Apps and explore the most used tools to run the end2end tests. Next, you will learn to deploy your application to the Cloud and Docker Containers.

By the end of the book, you will have the skills to create rich applications through good practices and modern approaches, becoming a complete fullstack developer.

What you will learn

• Create front end applications using Aurelia JS from scratch, following good practices and modern approaches.
• Learn about modern CSS preprocessors and how they can improve readability of your application
• Use Aurelia framework to create navigable web applications with custom behavior and logic on the client side
• Write your own tests and expect some custom behavior, ensuring your application to be secure and fault tolerance
• Create solid and understandable restful API's using microservice architecture.
• Understand the NoSQL paradigm and get the best performance from DB
• Integrate third party libraries such Gmail for Single Sign On.
• Review of different useful concepts such UX, testing and Agile.
• Build apps that are ready to pass end-to-end testing by writing your UI Testing script and Integration Tests

Who This Book Is For

If you are a web or a full-stack JavaScript developer who have tried their hands on the traditional stacks like LAMP and wish to explore a new stack with modern web technologies then this book is for you. This book is also for web or full stack developers who have tried using the traditional MEAN or MERN stack and wish to explore the power of Aurelia. Knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is necessary.

使用新的MEAN Stack開發豐富且可擴展的應用程式

主要特點:
- 學習如何使用Node.js、Express.js、MondoDB和Aurelia構建現代網頁應用程式。
- 利用JavaScript在客戶端和伺服器端建立全端應用程式。
- 通過實際案例深入了解實時網頁應用程式。

書籍描述:
本書首先回顧了JavaScript作為主要程式語言的基本概念，並解釋了其運作原理。接著，您將學習如何使用Aurelia-Materialize插件創建美觀且直觀的應用程式，該插件實現了Material Design方法。一旦應用程式FIFA World Cup 2018 App完全配置好，就可以開始添加一些功能，通過TDD實踐創建第一個組件。然後，您將創建用於處理和存儲所有使用者數據的後端服務，並學習如何將其公開以供網頁應用程式使用。

接下來，您將了解並探索NoSQL範式，並使用最受歡迎的NoSQL數據庫之一MongoDB來實現它，並使用一些很棒的庫使體驗更加舒適和有用。接著，您將為組件添加一些高級行為，從正確管理生命週期到使用動態綁定、字段驗證和自定義服務層。

您將集成應用程式到Google OAuth服務並學習保護應用程式的最佳實踐。您還將編寫整合和UI測試腳本，以創建高質量的Aurelia應用程式，並探索最常用的工具來運行端對端測試。接下來，您將學習將應用程式部署到雲端和Docker容器。

通過閱讀本書，您將具備通過良好實踐和現代方法創建豐富應用程式的技能，成為一名完整的全端開發人員。

您將學到什麼:
- 從頭開始使用Aurelia JS創建前端應用程式，遵循良好實踐和現代方法。
- 了解現代CSS預處理器以及它們如何提高應用程式的可讀性。
- 使用Aurelia框架在客戶端創建可導航的網頁應用程式，具有自定義行為和邏輯。
- 編寫自己的測試並期望一些自定義行為，確保應用程式的安全性和容錯性。
- 使用微服務架構創建堅固且易於理解的RESTful API。
- 了解NoSQL範式並從數據庫中獲得最佳性能。
- 整合Gmail等第三方庫進行單一登錄。
- 檢視不同有用概念，如UX、測試和敏捷開發。
- 通過編寫UI測試腳本和整合測試，構建準備通過端對端測試的應用程式。

本書適合對傳統堆疊（如LAMP）有所嘗試並希望探索具有現代網頁技術的新堆疊的網頁或全端JavaScript開發人員。本書也適合嘗試使用傳統MEAN或MERN堆疊並希望探索Aurelia的網頁或全端開發人員。需要具備HTML、CSS和JavaScript的知識。
