Pro ASP.NET 1.1 in VB.NET aims to be the definite reference for working developers in the field. Its compendium format covers every topic you are likely to come across in your day-to-day work, from handling data through to configuration and deployment.

The books goal is to act firstly as a tutorial guide that can be read from cover-to-cover, then secondly as a reference book that you can scan quickly to retrieve the answer to a specific problem as you work.

This book puts to use hard-won, real-world VB .NET experience, and demonstrates it clearly through numerous diagrams, screenshots, and working code samples.

With its added improvements, ASP.NET 2.0 is becoming the standard technology for creating dynamic web pages on the Windows platform. This new technology is faster to code than the previous version, and offers a more powerful set of tools including MasterPages and Generics. It also runs more quickly when deployed, so that customers enjoy a much better user experience. It is now used by organizations across the board, from start-up companies to blue-chip multinational corporations.

Pro ASP.NET 2.0 in VB 2005 allows on the heels of Apress well-regarded Pro ASP.NET 1.1 in VB .NET. This updated version shares the best-practices coverage and pragmatic style of its predecessor. Author Laurence Moroney covers ASP.NET thoroughly—from 2.0 innovations to crossover features from 1.1. This book takes a broad-based approach, explaining how old and new features interrelate. This book also provides you with the solid understanding you need to code real applications.

This book introduces a fast-track path to understanding Atlas, and how this technology can increase the power and functionality of your code while conserving time and effort. The book begins with a bare-bones introduction that explains how Atlas relates to Ajax.

Microsoft Atlas is a web-client framework that makes building Ajax-style applications easier. It provides a prewritten framework that gives you a structured environment in which to work. Atlas also provides you with an object model and standardized debugging to make development faster and simpler.

Ajax is a way of combining a number of Web technologies including JavaScript, dynamic HTML, and a feature known as XMLHttp (which reduces the need for client browsers to constantly reconnect to the server every time new information is downloaded). But at the moment, people developing with Ajax have to write their code from the ground up, which is complex and time consuming.

The book guides you through a series of practical examples that demonstrate the Atlas framework and available controls. After reading this book, youll be able to compile a seamless Atlas-based application of your own!

Since the emergence of Google Maps, Ajax programming techniques have become one of the hottest topics in the programming arena. To date, the frameworks available for creating these applications have been complex and have separated the development of the client–side Ajax (on the user''s machine) from the server–side supporting technology (on the company''s machines). This separation has made development slow and difficult.

ASP.NET AJAX is Microsoft''s solution to this problem. ASP.NET AJAX (formerly code–named Atlas) is a set of extensions to the existing ASP.NET 2.0 technology that provides you with a fast-and-simple environment to create Ajax applications. Microsoft has combined Ajax with ASP.NET technology and provided a unified set of development tools within Visual Studio 2005. For the first time, Ajax applications can be developed seamlessly in conjunction with a supporting technology.

Foundations of ASP.NET AJAX (written by Laurence Moroney, the author of Apress'' successful Foundations of Atlas) gives you a detailed grounding in how ASP.NET AJAX works. It takes you swiftly through the basic principles of Ajax, then deep into the heart of the technology, where every namespace is discussed and every function considered. By the end of the book, you''ll know all the essentials to confidently produce cutting-edge ASP.NET AJAX applications swiftly and professionally. You will not need any reference beyond this book.

Beginning Web Development, Silverlight, and ASP.NET AJAX: From Novice to Professional aims to give you the skills you need to start building web applications with Microsoft''s next–generation technology as quickly as possible. Whether you''re interested in ASP.NET AJAX, Silverlight, or the technologies that support them (WPF, WCF, WF, etc.), this book is the starting point that you need.

It adopts a “zero to hero” approach that concentrates on achieving practical results you can use in real projects rather than presenting a deep academic treatment that can''t be immediately applied.

The aim is to give you, the reader, the knowledge you need to achieve the results you want with the minimum of fuss. When you''ve read this book, you''ll have a solid understand of all the techniques that are available, when to use them, and their relative strengths and weaknesses.

The iPhone is the hottest gadget of our generation, and much of its success has been fueled by the App Store, Apple’s online marketplace for iPhone apps. Over 1 billion apps were downloaded during the nine months following the launch of the App Store, ranging from the simplest games to the most complex business apps. Everyone has an idea for the next best-selling iPhone app—that’s why you’re reading this now! And with the popularity of the iPad, this demand will just continue to grow.

Plan how to build a better app, grow it into a business, and earn money from your hard work using Firebase. In this book, Laurence Moroney, Staff Developer Advocate at Google, takes you through each of the 15 Firebase technologies, showing you how to use them with concrete examples. You’ll see how to build cross-platform apps with the three pillars of the Firebase platform: technologies to help you develop apps with a real-time database, remote configuration, cloud messaging, and more; grow your apps with user sharing, search integration, analytics, and more; and earn from your apps with in-app advertising.

After reading The Definitive Guide to Firebase, you''ll come away empowered to make the most of this technology that helps you build better cross-platform mobile apps using either native Android or JavaScript-based web apps and effectively deploy them in a cloud environment.
