The document discusses various tools for modern web application development including JavaScript frameworks like Angular and Backbone, CSS preprocessors like SCSS and LESS, templating languages like Jade and Haml, module loaders, performance optimization tools, documentation tools, and continuous integration tools. It also covers techniques for structuring code and CSS including OOCSS, BEM, and SMACSS methodologies. Finally, it discusses scaffolding and build tools like Yeoman, Grunt, and Bower for automating workflows.

- 9. jQuery never tell how to structure your app
- 11. Model View View Adapter StructureJS MV * Model View Presenter Model View Controller Model View ViewController Model View ViewModel
- 12. ViewData
- 13. View View View
- 17. Backbone never tell how to create reusable modules and load it on demand
- 19. ModularJavascript Purpose Module?Highly decoupled, distinct pieces of functionality stored in modules Dependency References
- 20. ModularJavascript Two Steps 1. Define module 2. Require it
- 22. ModularJavascript Configuration Require module Define module & its dependencies1 2
- 23. ModularJavascript Combine related scripts together Minifies it via UglifyJS/ Closure Compiler Optimize CSS r.js optimizer $ node r.js -o baseUrl=. paths. jquery=some/other/jquery name=main out=main- built.js
- 26. TDD/BDD Why TDD? Design your code well Build confidence to use your code Don’t let same bug popup twice Seamless change requests adaption Automatic Documentation Continuous Integration
- 30. TDD/BDD Qunit
- 35. Javascript lint Code Quality Tools for detecting potential problem in your javascript
- 41. Documentation
- 45. Continuous Integration Continuous integration – the practice of frequently integrating one's new or changed code with the existing code repository – should occur frequently enough that no intervening window remains between commit and build, and such that no errors can arise without developers noticing them and correcting them immediately CI -wikipedia
- 47. Session Summary Structure your app Optimise it Document it Continuous integration
- 48. CSS
- 51. What is CSS Preprocessors Stylesheet meta language that is interpreted into CSS $basecolor: #f1f1f1; body{ background: $basecolor } body { background: #f1f1f1; } SC SS C SS

- 55. Compiling Deployment Server Client Local Compile as part of deployment process (Capistrano, Fabric). Compile and cache up on request. Compile using javascript at browser end (not recommended) Compile using tools.
- 56. Tools Prepros
- 57. Online Tool
- 58. Preprocessors don't output bad code, bad developers do
- 62. OOCSS Purpose of OOCSS is to identify common pattern & encourage code reuse Main principles Separate structure and skin Separate container and content
- 63. BEMBlock : A block is an independent entity. Element : An element is a part of a block that performs a certain function. Blocks and elements constitute page content. Modifier : Similar block with slightly altered its appearance or behavior..
- 64. SMACSSBase : Base rules are the defaults. Layout : Divide the page into sections. Layouts hold one or more modules together. Module : are the reusable, modular parts of our design. State : are ways to describe how our modules or layouts will look when in a particular state. Is it hidden or expanded? Theme : are similar to state rules in that they describe how modules or layouts might look.
- 65. Living Style guide Create style guide as you code!!
- 67. KSSstyleguide /* A button suitable for giving stars to someone. :hover - Subtle hover highlight. .stars-given - A highlight indicating you've already given a star. .stars-given:hover - Subtle hover highlight on top of stars-given styling. .disabled - Dims the button to indicate it cannot be used. Styleguide 2.1.3. */ a.button.star{ ... } a.button.star.stars-given{ ... } a.button.star.disabled{ ... }
