Course Description This course examines the technologies used for developing dynamic Web content. With an emphasis on HTML5 and the most recent Cascading Style Sheet versions, students learn about how modern Web content is laid out and brought to interactive life using these and other technologies. As part of this process, students develop Web pages using various technologies and make them publicly available online. Other technologies examined include PHP, JavaScript, and Perl. In addition, the course will examine and use available libraries that build upon these technologies to make Web pages more interactive. An example of such a library would be Google's Map API using JavaScript. The course will also cover the services back-end technologies like JavaEE and.NET can provide to Web sites. Finally, this will all lead to the services cloud computing can provide.

Course Topics Web page construction using HTML 5 Employing CSS to layout content and stylize components Using front-end scripting languages like JavaScript in Web development Using Web APIs like Node.js, Google Maps, Facebook, and jQuery to enhance front-end functionality How PHP and Perl can be employed to dynamically generate Web content Heavyweight content creation using application servers like JavaEE and.NET Cloud computing

Course Goals Students should become proficient in Web page development using HTML 5 Students should learn how to employ CSS to layout content and stylize component Students should learn about the role of JavaScript in Web development and learn some basic uses Students should learn how PHP and Perl can be employed to dynamically generate Web content. Students should get some experience in using a Web API for extending JavaScript capabilities, for example, using Google's Maps API Students should get acquainted with the terminologies and capabilities of more heavyweight Web technologies for dynamic content creation like JavaEE and.NET Students should learn what cloud computing is, broadly how it works, and what services it can provide

My Goals Make you HTML 5/ CSS/JavaScript/X.js Experts

What's a Web framework?

Web frameworks for many platforms Java ASP.NET Python Cold Fusion Perl PHP Ruby

Important Framework Features MVC Push vs. Pull Ajax Capabilities JavaScript generation Frameworks using Frameworks –ex: Ruby on Rails uses jQuery

What's the point? Use JavaScript without writing it Use rich, capable front-end components

We’ll look at this one later Developed by Çağatay Çivici –a.k.a. Optimus Prime Lots of rich components –

Common Java Frameworks 1. Spring MVC (23%) 2. Struts 1.x (15%) 3. Apache Axis (15%) 4. Apache Xerces (14%) 5. Hibernate (12%) 6. JDOM (12%) 7. Java Applet (8.1%) 8. Apache Velocity (7.9%) 9. Apache ORO (7.0%) 10. JAX-WS (6.5%) Source: VeraCode Blog
