Learning React Native: Building Native Mobile Apps with JavaScript
Bonnie Eisenman - 2016
With this hands-on guide, you'll learn how to build applications that target iOS, Android, and other mobile platforms instead of browsers. You'll also discover how to access platform features such as the camera, user location, and local storage.With code examples and step-by-step instructions, author Bonnie Eisenman shows web developers and frontend engineers how to build and style interfaces, use mobile components, and debug and deploy apps. Along the way, you'll build several increasingly sophisticated sample apps with React Native before putting everything together at the end.Learn how React Native provides an interface to native UI componentsExamine how the framework uses native components analogous to HTML elementsCreate and style your own React Native components and applicationsInstall modules for APIs and features not supported by the frameworkGet tools for debugging your code, and for handling issues outside of JavaScriptPut it all together with the Zebreto effective-memorization flashcard appDeploy apps to the iOS App Store and Google's Play Store
Exploring CQRS and Event Sourcing
Dominic Betts - 2012
It presents a learning journey, not definitive guidance. It describes the experiences of a development team with no prior CQRS proficiency in building, deploying (to Windows Azure), and maintaining a sample real-world, complex, enterprise system to showcase various CQRS and ES concepts, challenges, and techniques.The development team did not work in isolation; we actively sought input from industry experts and from a wide group of advisors to ensure that the guidance is both detailed and practical.The CQRS pattern and event sourcing are not mere simplistic solutions to the problems associated with large-scale, distributed systems. By providing you with both a working application and written guidance, we expect you’ll be well prepared to embark on your own CQRS journey.
