Synopsis

By teaching HTML5 by developing exciting games, the reader will see concrete applications for each of the concepts, and will also have a powerful deliverable at the end of each chapter - a fully functional game. We learn the various concepts using very abstract examples - how to model animals, foods, or fictitious machines. This makes learning and understanding a lot easier, and much more enjoyable. If you are are looking to get a good grounding in how to use the new awesome technology that is HTML5, this book is for you. Basic knowledge of HTML and/or HTML5 is welcome, but optional. The book is a friendly and exciting reference for beginners.

About the Author

Rodrigo Silveira

Rodrigo Silveira is a web engineer at Deseret Digital Media. His responsibilities include back-end system development, tools, and maintenance, front-end application development and design, and more recently, he's been involved in mobile development of various products on the Android platform.

He received his Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science from Brigham Young University, Idaho, as well as an Associate's Degree in Business Management from LDS Business College in Salt Lake City, Utah.

His fascination for web development began in his early teenage years, and his skills grew as he discovered the power of a library subscription, a curious and willing mind, and supportive parents and friends. Today Rodrigo balances his time between the three great passions of his life—his family, software development, and video games (with the last two usually being mingled together).
