As a Java programmer, how can you tackle the disruptive client-server approach to web development? With this comprehensive guide, you’ll learn how today’s client-side technologies and web APIs work with various Java tools. Author Casimir Saternos provides the big picture of client-server development, and then takes you through many practical client-server architectures. You’ll work with hands-on projects in several chapters to get a feel for the topics discussed. User habits, technologies, and development methods have drastically altered web app design in recent years. But the Web itself hasn’t changed. This book shows you how to build apps that conform to the web’s underlying architecture. Learn the advantages of using separate client and server tiers, including code organization and speedy prototyping Explore the major tools, frameworks, and starter projects used in JavaScript development Dive into web API design and REST style of software architecture Understand Java’s alternatives to traditional packaging methods and application server deployment Build projects with lightweight servers, using jQuery with Jython, and Sinatra with Angular Create client-server web apps with traditional Java web application servers and libraries

Written specifically for Java developers, this book describes and demonstrates the creation of JavaScript rich web applications that communicate with RESTful JSON web services implemented in Java. This development approach maintains a clear distinction between client-side and server-side technologies, in contrast to JSF, GWT, and similar server-side templating technologies where user-interface development is largely performed server side.

Isomorphic JavaScript, often described as the holy grail of web application development, refers to running JavaScript code on both the browser client and web application server. This application architecture has become increasingly popular for the benefits of SEO, optimized page load and full control of the UI, and isomorphic libraries are being used at companies like Walmart, Airbnb, Facebook, and Netflix. With this practical book, authors Jason Strimpel and Maxime Najim provide the knowledge you need to build and maintain your own isomorphic JavaScript apps. This book includes: Part 1 identifies different classifications of isomorphic JavaScript apps, and shows you how to set up a development environment Part 2 takes you from theory to practice by showing you how to build out your own isomorphic app Part 3 takes you through existing solutions in the market today, providing you with the knowledge you need to bring isomorphic solutions into your development workflow

A software architect’s digest of core practices, pragmatically applied Designing effective architecture is your best strategy for managing project complexity–and improving your results. But the principles and practices of software architecting–what the authors call the “science of hard decisions”–have been evolving for cloud, mobile, and other shifts. Now fully revised and updated, this book shares the knowledge and real-world perspectives that enable you to design for success–and deliver more successful solutions. In this fully updated Second Edition, you will: Learn how only a deep understanding of domain can lead to appropriate architecture Examine domain-driven design in both theory and implementation Shift your approach to code first, model later–including multilayer architecture Capture the benefits of prioritizing software maintainability See how readability, testability, and extensibility lead to code quality Take a user experience (UX) first approach, rather than designing for data Review patterns for organizing business logic Use event sourcing and CQRS together to model complex business domains more effectively Delve inside the persistence layer, including patterns and implementation.
