SSW Update - Single Page Applications - Interview with John Papa |
|
|
[the cutting edge ]
G'day Developers!
In our latest SSW TV video, I was very lucky to be joined by Microsoft MVP and Pluralsight
author, John Papa, to explore building great web user experiences with Single Page
Applications (SPA).
We discussed the ASP. Net MVC SPA Templates, some of the frameworks and Javascript libraries
that can help you out and why developers should be spending more time on their client-side
architecture.
Adam Stephensen's Interview with John Papa on Single Page Applications
(SPA)
John Papa is a well-known former Senior Technical Evangelist for Microsoft on the Silverlight
and Window 8 client teams, a Microsoft Regional Director, and author of 100+ articles and 10
books, specializing in professional
application development with technologies including Windows, HTML5, JavaScript, CSS,
Silverlight, WPF, C#, and SQL Server.
Check out John Papa's blog here - and his Pluralsight
training courses

Keep an eye on SSW TV for lots of other
great interviews with .NET thought leaders and experts.

The Model View Controller design pattern has been a proven and effective way of structuring
applications for more than 30 years. In 2007, Microsoft introduced ASP.NET MVC to the world and
since then, the framework has evolved into a mature and powerful way of writing dynamic web sites
and powerful web applications.
ASP.NET MVC provides a great way of structuring your application, ensuring a clean separation of
concerns, easy testability, and ultimate control over markup. It is quickly becoming the go-to
framework for writing .Net web applications.
Enterprise MVC Apps Day 1: MVC Foundations - From the
Gound Up
This course will introduce you to the latest version of ASP .NET MVC; version 4. By the end of the
course, attendees will know:
How MVC Works - We'll take a peek under the covers of ASP .NET MVC 4 to discover how it
works.
User Interface Considerations - We'll look at how to get a clean, useable and responsive user
interface with minimal stress.
Targeting Mobile Devices - Once you know how, building MVC sites that look great on mobile
devices is easy.
