br. JavaScript è il linguaggio per la programmazione Web lato client più apprezzato.

br. Questo testo è un vero e proprio corso di programmazione accessibile anche a chi non abbia alcuna conoscenza della materia, e nel contempo tocca e approfondisce le tematiche e gli aspetti fondamentali della programmazione. L'aspetto particolarmente innovativo e originale del testo è subito evidente: anziché limitarsi a mostrare come combinare le istruzioni base del linguaggio mediante le strutture di controllo, gli autori insistono fin dai primi esempi su come combinare i servizi forniti dalle classi e dagli oggetti. Questo ha il vantaggio di consentire da subito la codifica di programmi in grado di svolgere compiti complessi, ma soprattutto abitua immediatamente il lettore a pensare in astratto al comportamento degli oggetti, senza soffermarsi sui dettagli implementativi, rimandati alla parte successiva del testo. In questa nuova edizione gli autori, sulla base di feedback di docenti e colleghi, hanno ritenuto di rivedere alcune parti e la presentazione di alcuni argomenti. La modifica più rilevante riguarda in particolare le eccezioni e l'ampliamento della trattazione sulla ricorsione. Con MyLab.

br. Node.js rappresenta una vera e propria rivoluzione: per un programmatore, avere la possibilità di sviluppare un'intera web app usando esclusivamente JavaScript, sia per la parte frontend sia per quella backend, è infatti un vantaggio incredibile. Il libro, dedicato a chi già possiede competenze di JavaScript, giuda il lettore alla comprensione dei concetti principali di Node.js, partendo dall'installazione (singola e multi-versione), per arrivare alla sintassi di base, concentrandosi poi sui moduli più utili come Express e i template engine. Il testo permette di padroneggiare Node.js in tutte le sue sfaccettature, compresa la creazione dei propri moduli e il deploy delle web app sui servizi più usati attualmente.
