Create next-generation applications for smart phones, tablets, and mobile devices using the ASP.NET MVC development framework

Overview

  • Learn and utilize the latest Microsoft tools and technologies to develop mobile web apps with a native feel
  • Create web applications for the traditional and mobile web
  • Discover techniques used to overcome the pitfalls of developing Internet-ready apps

In Detail

The ASP.NET MVC 4 framework is used to build scalable web applications with the help of design patterns and .NET Framework. The Model-View-Controller (MVC) is a design principle which separates the components of a web application. This separation helps you to modify, develop, and test different components of a web application.

ASP.NET MVC 4 Mobile App Development helps you to develop next generation applications, while guiding you to deal with the constraints the mobile web places on application development. By the end of the book, you will be well versed with all the aspects of mobile app development.

ASP.NET MVC 4 Mobile App Development introduces you to developing mobile web apps using the ASP.NET MVC 4 framework. Walking you through the process of creating a homebrew recipe sharing application, this book teaches you the fundamentals and concepts relevant to developing Internet-ready mobile-enabled web apps. Through the sample application, you will learn how to secure your apps against XSS and CSRF attacks, open up your application to users using third party logins such as Google or Facebook, and how to use Razor, HTML 5, and CSS 3 to create custom views and content targeting mobile devices. Using these custom views, you will then learn how to create web apps with a native mobile device feel using jQuery mobile. By the end of the book, you will be presented with a set of challenges to prove to yourself that you now have the skills to extend your existing web applications to the mobile web or create new mobile web apps.

What you will learn from this book

  • Understand the differences between developing traditional web apps and apps targeting the mobile web
  • Learn to use the conventions and configurations used by Entity Framework 5.0 to tailor our model to suit our requirements
  • Secure your apps and protect your users from Internet attacks like XSS and CSRF
  • Familiarize yourself with HTML 5 and CSS 3 to develop next-generation web apps
  • Socialize your app using SignalR and WebSockets to provide real-time features to your users
  • Create highly-optimized multi-threaded mobile apps using the new async and await keywords and content bundles

About the Author

Andy Meadows has been in a love affair with technology since his third-grade teacher introduced him to her TRS-80 Model III in 1981. After several months of typing "Go North" on the keyboard, he began his foray into BASIC programming. The TRS-80 Model III begat a Commodore 64 and an introduction to Pascal. By 1988, he was spending his summers earning money by writing software in C for local small businesses.

While attending college at the University of Georgia, Andy developed his passion for web development and, of course, beer. His first web application was a series of CGI scripts that output content for NCSA Mosaic and by 1994, he was designing web interfaces for global information systems.

After college, Andy wandered listlessly through the IT world spending time in several verticals using several different languages, but he always returned home to web development. In 2002, he began his foray into mobile development beginning with native Java development, and quickly moving into the mobile web space where he began marrying his two passions: mobile web development and .NET.

Since then, Andy has worked on several projects involving mobile development, web development, or both. He is extremely excited about the future of the mobile web made possible by the newest generation of mobile devices. He is currently working at a startup in Atlanta, where he lives with his wife and two children.

Acknowledgment

Writing this book was one of the biggest challenges I have ever undertaken. When originally approached with the idea for this book, I was hesitant. I'd heard horror stories about the sheer level of effort and commitment it takes to complete this task, but after consulting with the family I decided to try. Let me tell you, those stories are wrong. It was much, much more difficult than I had heard, but more fulfilling than I could have imagined.

The biggest commitment I had to make when writing this book was time. Lots and lots of time. Fortunately, I was blessed with a wonderful supporting cast.

I would first like to thank the people at Packt Publishing for their gentle encouragement and guidance through this process. They were truly a pleasure to work with, and their level of commitment to their authors and a quality product is evident in every action they take.

To my reviewers, thanks for the candid feedbackboth critical and complimentary. This book is better because of you.

To my wife, Amy, and my two children, Noah and Nate, who permitted me to undertake this venture, thank you for your patience and support. And thanks for letting me take over practically every room in the house at one point in time as I attempted to find my muse. I sure must have done something right at one point to deserve the unconditional love you have shown through the long days at work, followed by the long nights in front of the computer. I love you all.
