Do you write a lot of HTML, javascript, and jQuery to push and pull data? Does your javascript seem to lack the structure and patterns of your non script code? In this course you will learn popular techniques to use data binding to bind your data to your target controls in HTML writing less code, but gaining more power. See how to consume json data, use json objects in javascript, and use declarative binding all by using the KnockoutJS javascript library. Learn how the XAML data binding paradigm has been brought to the web world with observable objects, change notifications, subscriptions, and 2 way bindings. Explore modern javascript patterns and practices that follow the SOLID principles, reduce errors in your code, and make code easier to maintain. After taking this course you will have a solid foundation for building robust web apps using common javascript patterns, MVVM, and KnockoutJS.

The goal of the course is provide an end-to-end look at different technologies and show how they can be integrated together. With this new course, I walk through building an application from start to finish and discuss data repository classes, creating and using Model classes, ASP.NET MVC controllers and actions, converting Model objects to JSON, client-side technologies such as jQuery, javascript patterns, HTML5, Ajax calls, structuring code, plus a lot more. If you've been waiting for a course that ties everything together into one cohesive unit then I hope this course will help you out.

One of the very first questions I tend to get from people is “Should I build load bearing or post and beam?” That’s a decision that really depends a lot on the design of the structure you’re planning, your time line, climate, skills as a carpenter, and more. The answer I usually give people, no matter what they intend to build in the future, is “Start small.”
