Book Description

Publication Date: April 15 2009 | Series: PRO-Developer

Rethink the way you plan, design, and build Web applications—with expert guidance from Web development luminary Dino Esposito. Whether giving legacy sites a much-needed tune-up—or architecting rich Internet applications from the ground up—you’ll learn pragmatic approaches to AJAX development that you can employ today.

Discover how to:

  • Delve into the mechanics and design goals of partial rendering—such as improving page-refresh speed
  • Use AJAX-enabled server controls to bring desktop-like functionality to Web solutions
  • Apply design patterns to common Web development issues, including client-side data binding
  • Manipulate JavaScript more easily using the jQuery and Microsoft AJAX libraries
  • Examine the interoperability and security models in Microsoft Silverlight
  • Weigh the tradeoffs when architecting Web applications for richness (Silverlight) vs. reach (AJAX)—and deliver the right solution for your audience

3.0 out of 5 stars Good current book, about to be outdated quickly Jan 20 2010
By D. S. Cherry Jr. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Dino is a well respected author and developer. I have read at least five of his books. They range from old school ADO.NET to architecting web applications for the enterprise (highly recommend that read). This book is well written and organized. The content is heavy on the front end as the title suggests. You will explore the kludgy innards of JavaScript. jQuery and many Ajax approaches are also considered. In addition, Dino puts his own personal spin on patterns and processes.

The book starts very well with a background in the Ajax surge. It then jumps into the client side, patterns, binding to the client and ends with RIA's. Overall this is solid and I recommend the read if not quick skimming after the fifth chapter.

However, .NET 4.0 is right around the corner. The client side bindings, more jQuery integration and updated Microsoft Ajax JavaScript libraries will change a lot of how this book approaches Ajax. Therefore, its an interim book for those not looking to move to 4.0 and live in at least the 3.5 world for the foreseeable future.

It delves into Silverlight a bit and. But has no mention of the ground swell of popularity that is ASP.NET MVC and its fairly elegant Ajax approach. One of the highlights is Dino's insight into the pros and cons of partial rendering vs. full scale asynchronous approaches. I have been on an enterprise application where we had to implement the former. He nailed the reasons why.

Read this book if you want a good background in current technologies that are changing at the speed of light. It won't be a gold source for later pick up and review though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book from a prolific author Dec 14 2009
By Umed Zokirov - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Most of the Ajax and JavaScript books focus on implementation and that's a good thing. However those books do not describe how Ajax fits within an architecture of an application. This books captures it succinctly. I also recommend author's other book "Microsoft .NET: Architecting Applications for the Enterprise"
1.0 out of 5 stars Another Big Waste of Time April 29 2013
By Charles E. Nutting - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you have nothing to do, still don't read this book. Really doesn't tell you anything about how to DO AJAX, just another copy paste from other materials into this book. You could learn more from the internet, and your neighbor then reading this book.
