Synopsis
Key FeaturesStart with the basics, then enhance your knowledge with in-depth discussions on language features, third-party libraries, design patterns and morePractical examples that show how to use TypeScript with popular frameworks, including Backbone, Angular 2, React, Aurelia, Node and othersFocus on test-driven development to build high quality applications that are modular, scalable and adaptableBook DescriptionThe TypeScript language, compiler, and opensource development toolset brings JavaScript development up to the enterprise level. It allows us to use ES5, ES6, and ES7 JavaScript language features today, including classes, interfaces, generics, modules, and more. Its simple typing syntax enables building large, robust applications using object-oriented techniques and industry standard design principles.Packed with practical, real-world examples, this book is a guide to bringing the benefits of strongly typed, object-oriented programming and design principles into the JavaScript development space. Starting with core language features, and working through more advanced topics such as generics and asynchronous programming techniques, you will learn how to gain maximum benefit from your JavaScript development with TypeScript. With a strong focus on test-driven development, and coverage of many popular and in-demand JavaScript frameworks, you can fast-track your TypeScript knowledge to a professional level. By the end of this book, you will be able to confidently build TypeScript applications, whether you are targeting Angular, Aurelia, React, Backbone, Node, or any other JavaScript framework.What you will learnGain an insight into core and advanced TypeScript language featuresIntegrate your existing JavaScript libraries and third-party frameworks by writing and using declaration filesTarget popular JavaScript frameworks such as jQuery, Backbone, Angular, Aurelia, React, Node, and ExpressCreate extensive test suites for your application with Jasmine, Protactor, and SeleniumOrganize your application code using modules, AMD loaders, Require and SystemJsExplore advanced object-oriented design principles, including Dependency InjectionUnderstand and compare the various MVC implementations in Aurelia, Angular, React and BackboneBuild a complete single-page web application that incorporates CSS animations to enhance your customers browsing experienceAbout the AuthorNathan Rozentals has been building commercial software for over 26 years and programming for a lot longer than that. Before the Internet even became a thing, he was building statistical analysis programs on mainframes. Like many programmers at that time, he helped save the world in the year 2000.He has worked with and tried to master many object-oriented languages, starting by implementing object-oriented techniques in plain old C. Having spent many years working with C++, chasing obscure thread locking issues and recursive routines causing memory leakage, he decided to simplify his life by embracing automatic garbage collection in Java and then C#.As the world moved from thick-client and n-tier to web technologies, his focus turned to modern web programming, and so to JavaScript. In TypeScript, he found a language in which he could bring all of the object-oriented design patterns he had learned over the years to JavaScript.If it were not for extreme programming techniques, agile delivery, test-driven development, and continuous integration, he would have lost his mind many years ago.When he is not programming, he is thinking about programming. To stop thinking about programming, he goes windsurfing, plays soccer, or simply watches the professionals play soccer. They are so much better at it than he is.Table of ContentsTypeScript - Tools and Framework OptionsTypes, Variables, and Function TechniquesInterfaces, Classes, and InheritanceDecorators, Generics, and Asynchronous FeaturesWriting and Using Declaration FilesThird-Party LibrariesTypeScript Compatible FrameworksTest Driven DevelopmentTesting Typescript Compatible FrameworksModularizationObject-Oriented ProgrammingDependency InjectionBuilding ApplicationsLets Get Our Hands Dirty
