This manual covers the principles and practices of building high-performance, responsive websites. It demonstrates how responsive design can be integrated across the entire web stack, not just the frontend, offering a comprehensive approach to modern web development. The content is derived from real-world applications and guides readers through effective patterns and anti-patterns for creating compelling and efficient online experiences.
The manual is designed for frontend-focused web developers and provides insights into incorporating responsiveness and performance into project planning. It explores backend functionality using Node.js for device-specific features, outlines automated testing for continuous integration, and examines various tools and responsive frameworks. Readers will gain practical knowledge from the author's experience to enhance their web development skills.
Yes, you can use responsive web design to create high performance, compelling websites. With this practical book, author Tom Barker demonstrates that responsive design is not just a frontend-only approach, but also a philosophy for taking advantage of the entire web stack. Responsive design patterns and anti-patterns, derived from heavily used real-world sites, are guiding principles throughout the book.
Ideal for frontend-focused web developers, this book shows you how to incorporate responsiveness and performance into your project plan, use Node.js for device-specific functionality on the backend, and write automated tests for a continuous integration environment. You’ll explore many useful tools and responsive frameworks, and gain useful insights from Barker’s own experience with responsive design along the way.
- Get a primer on web performance concepts, web runtime performance, and performance tracking tools
- Write functionality with Node.js that serves up a device-specific experience to the client
- Explore client-side solutions, such as lazy loading entire sections of a page—including images, styling, and content
- Validate service level agreements (SLAs) by writing automated tests with PhantomJS
- Examine several responsive frameworks, including the author’s server-side framework, Ripple
