Product Description
This powerful new book introduces cross-platform app design as an excellent starting point for mastering app development. The book contains numerous applications that can be adapted to different projects. The book introduces HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery Mobile, Node.js, JSON, localStorage, sessionStorage, NoSQL using MongoDB, SQL using MySQL, templating using handlebars, and maps. A strong app-centric view emphasizes appropriate subsets of these technologies to help readers develop non-trivial apps. While apps continue to evolve and change, the technologies presented form the backbone of future cross-platform app development. Readers learn to work with all major mobile and web platforms using the book's active learning approach that has users type code in parallel as apps are developed. Exercises further encourage readers to make changes to the code and evaluate resulting app behavior.

Review
"The content is current. I have found the organization easy to follow. It is overall reader friendly and I can expect my students to understand the material without major issues. As a technical writing presentation, it is easy to follow. The subject transfers from one chapter to another without major gaps. As an entry level how-to book, it is sufficient to educate the students with mobile app development skills."
"I think the goal of the book is clear that serves as a book on how to build cross-platform mobile and web apps using HTML5, JavaScript, jQuery, node.js and JSON. The concepts and terms are explained very well when they first introduced. For example, in chapter 3, the definition of HTML and various tags are clearly introduced. The writing of the chapters is clear and easy to follow. I think the illustrative material of this book is very good. I really like the idea to teach mobile app development using active learning approach. The cross-platform idea is also unique. I love the book using an active learning approach. It would be an excellent source for those who want to start mobile app development. I would adopt this book if I will open a mobile app development course."
