You will quickly find yourself referring to one of these samples for every website that you will build.

Data visualization is an efficient and effective medium for communicating large amounts of information. But the design process can often seem like an unexplainable creative endeavor. This book aims to demystify the design process for those who are already comfortable with data analysis, showing the reader how to encode information visually via a linear process of decision-making.

This mini book will act as an extension to Programming Entity Framework 2nd Edition. Code First is an additional means of building a model to be used with the Entity Framework and is creating a lot of excitement in the .NET development community. The reader will begin with an overview of what Code First is, why it was created, how it fits into the Entity Framework and when to use it over the alternatives. Next the reader will gain an understanding of how Code First's built in conventions work and how to override them with configuration - whether they choose to use attribute based Data Annotations or strongly typed Fluent API configurations. The mini-book will then review the modeling possibilities of Code First, looking first at the impact of its conventions and then demonstrating how to override that behavior (and its impact on the database) first with the Annotations and then with the Fluent API. The book will also explore how Code First Database initialization works, the options it provides and how they impact your application development and database. Finally the reader will get a chance to see Code First in action in a small application.Because more complex application development with Code First will depend on an understanding of the DbContext API, which is the focus of Minibook #2, readers will see additional application scenarios with Code First in that following mini-book.

Node gives JavaScript developers incredible server-side power, but transitioning from front-end development to the server is difficult.

That's right: JavaScript code is testable, despite the lack of unit test standards for this language. With this book, you'll discover how to devise excellent tests and real-world testing plans for your existing JavaScript code. Developers starting out on a new project will greatly benefit from these guidelines. Testing a language that runs within many different implementations and environments is inherently difficult - and since most JavaScript environments are UI-based, automated testing becomes even more difficult. This guide shows developers and their managers how to overcome these problems to test JavaScript code efficiently. Topics include: Which types of Javascript testing are most effective When and why should you run tests on Javascript code Code patterns and anti-patterns that promote and inhibit Javascript testing Integrating unit tests with your development and build environments (automated test running and reporting) Code coverage: how to get it, interpret it, and automatically generate it

If you're comfortable with jQuery but a bit shaky with JavaScript, this concise guide will help you expand your knowledge of the language - especially the code that jQuery covers up for you.
