Who This Book Is For

If you are a .NET developer that has already built web applications or web services with a fundamental knowledge of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, and want to explore single-page applications, then this book will give you a great start. The frameworks, tools, and libraries mentioned here will make you productive and minimize the friction usually associated with building server-side web applications.

What You Will Learn

• Create a standalone AngularJS application to prototype user interfaces
• Validate complex forms with AngularJS and use Bootstrap to style them
• Build RESTful web services that work well with single-page applications
• Implement automatic validation for web service requests to reduce your boilerplate code
• Use web services with AngularJS to offload and secure your application logic
• Test your AngularJS and web service code to improve the quality of your software deliverables
• Structure your JavaScript code and organize your files so your application can grow at a sustainable pace

In Detail

AngularJS is the most popular JavaScript MVC framework, and it embraces and extends HTML rather than abstracting it. The building of single-page applications is a web-designer-friendly process with the AngularJS expressive HTML vocabulary. It drastically reduces the amount of JavaScript required to control complex user interactions and enforces a modular approach to structuring your JavaScript code.

This book covers all of the stages of building a single-page web application, starting with frontend components powered by AngularJS, continuing with web services that leverage ServiceStack, and putting it all together in an ASP.NET MVC application. You will learn a development process focused on rapid delivery and testability for all application layers.
