Download or read book Dart for Hipsters written by Chris Strom and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dart 1.1 has arrived and Dart for Hipsters has you covered! Every chapter has been painstakingly reviewed and updated to work with the latest version of this exciting new language. The unabashed goal of Dart is to make programming for the Web simpler, faster, and more powerful. Dart for Hipsters teaches you the fastest way possible: with real code and real projects starting on page 1. You'll explore the ins and outs of Dart by writing a simple application that grows in complexity from modest beginnings to a separate library that fully leverages the power of Dart. Caution: after reading you may develop an intense attachment to structured code and skinny jeans.In Dart for Hipsters, you follow project-based chapters demonstrating real-world problems solved with Dart. Each project serves as the foundation for deeper discussion of defining features of Dart, such as its support for functional programming. As you reinforce your understanding of Dart, you'll move on to more complex projects which, in turn, spur more complex discussions, such as how to maintain Dart and JavaScript side-by-side. By the end of this book, not only will you have a thorough introduction to the language, but you'll also have built an entire MVC library from scratch.You'll jump right in by writing an Ajax-powered application, followed by a more detailed discussion of Dart's basic types. Along the way, Dart for Hipsters shows you how to compile Dart into JavaScript, how to use Dart's simple object-oriented programming approach, and how to build well-factored, easily used and maintained libraries. You'll see dynamic features of the language in action, such as injecting different data syncing behaviors for an entire framework with one line of code. Best of all, you'll learn how Dart makes working with HTML5 and similar technologies a breeze. What You Need: You will need Dartium, a preview release of Chrome with the Dart VM built-in. For some of the examples, you need either the dart2js tool or the Dart Editor to compile Dart down into JavaScript.

Book excerpt: A great, hilarious new voice in fiction: the poignant, all-too-human recollections of an affable bird researcher in the Indiana backwater as he goes through a disastrous yet heartening love affair with the place and its people. Nathan Lochmueller studies birds, earning just enough money to live on. He drives a glitter-festooned truck, the Gypsy Moth, and he is in love with Lola, a woman so free-spirited and mysterious she can break a man’s heart with a sigh or a shrug. Around them swirls a remarkable cast of characters: the proprietor of Fast Eddie’s Burgers & Beer, the genius behind “Thong Thursdays”; Uncle Dart, a Texan who brings his swagger to Indiana with profound and nearly devastating results; a snapping turtle with a taste for thumbs; a German shepherd who howls backup vocals; and the very charismatic state of Indiana itself. And at the center of it all is Nathan, creeping through the forest to observe the birds he loves and coming to terms with the accidental turns his life has taken.

Download or read book Dart 1 for Everyone written by Chris Strom and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psst! You're not stuck with JavaScript anymore. Google's Dart language makes programming for the Web simpler, faster, and more powerful. With version 1.0 in 2013 and an ECMA standard in 2014, Dart is ready to radically change web development for the better. And Dart 1 for Everyone has got you covered. Completely updated for Dart 1 and the ECMA standard, with new sections on new Dart features like method cascades, event streams, and class constructor syntax, this book wastes no time in immersing you in the finer points of this powerful and surprisingly beautiful language. Dart has changed significantly since the first printing of this book and Dart 1 for Everyone has kept up. Every chapter has been revised and some chapters have been almost completely rewritten since the first printing. The MVC project chapters dumped the old JavaScript-like event handlers for the sleek new streams interface, and the chapter on testing reflects the extensive changes in testing now available in Dart. Brand-new sections explore some of Dart's beautiful new features, such as: Method cascades: Improve code readability dramatically. Event streams: Simplified event handling, consistent with virtually every other asynchronous interaction in Dart. Library parts: Yet another way Dart promotes code organization. New class constructor syntax: Dart supports a nice variety of surprisingly expressive and concise ways to declare constructors. * Building your own packages: Quickly share your work with the world. You'll start writing Dart code on page 1, and throughout the book, you'll refactor that code to explore Dart's features: OOP, real libraries and packages, testing, and more. You'll learn how to write beautiful, maintainable application code that just works in all modern browsers. Caution: after reading you may develop an intense attachment to structured code and skinny jeans. What You Need:You will need the Dart SDK, which is freely available from https://dartlang.org. Most of the book works with Dartium, a preview release of Chrome that is included in the SDK and has the Dart VM built-in. Some of the examples use either the dart2js tool or the Dart Editor to compile Dart down into JavaScript - both are part of the SDK.

Download or read book Ground Up written by Michael Idov and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2009-07-21 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Light streams through the windows as the espresso machine roars; a gorgeous, rich scent fills the air; and witty conversation unspools over the porcelain cups. That's the café dream. Mark and Nina are about to experience the reality. Determined to re-create the perfect Viennese coffeehouse, they descend on New York's gritty but hip Lower East Side to educate the locals on authentic café culture. Soon Mark and Nina are in a downward spiral that will strip them of money, friends, sex life, status, shelter, and, finally, sanity—and offer salvation through something they have never experienced: disaster. Inspired by the author's own coffeehouse hell, Ground Up is a sharp and funny portrait of a New York constantly reinventing itself, and a surprisingly tender story of falling out of love and back in it again.
Download or read book Hipster Christianity written by Brett McCracken and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insider twentysomething Christian journalist Brett McCracken has grown up in the evangelical Christian subculture and observed the recent shift away from the "stained glass and steeples" old guard of traditional Christianity to a more unorthodox, stylized 21st-century church. This change raises a big issue for the church in our postmodern world: the question of cool. The question is whether or not Christianity can be, should be, or is, in fact, cool. This probing book is about an emerging category of Christians McCracken calls "Christian hipsters"--the unlikely fusion of the American obsessions with worldly "cool" and otherworldly religion--an analysis of what they're about, why they exist, and what it all means for Christianity and the church's relevancy and hipness in today's youth-oriented culture.
