jQuery makes it easier than ever for developers to build robust, cross-platform websites and mobile apps. Now, there's a practical "cookbook" packed with realistic, easy-to-use solutions for making the most of jQuery Core, jQuery UI, and jQuery Mobile. Top web/mobile developer and architect Adriaan de Jonge presents more than 100 self-contained examples, each followed by an in-depth explanation of how and why each step works: all the information needed to extend or adapt each recipe for diverse real-world challenges. This book's examples are directly usable in virtually any web or mobile app, with any server-side platform: PHP, .NET, Java, Ruby, Node.js, or Python. de Jonge's "code first, explain later" approach supports experienced web/mobile developers who want to start experimenting as soon as possible. His readable examples don't take shortcuts, and never compromise technical quality. Coverage includes: * Getting started fast with the latest version of jQuery Core * Optimizing jQuery's performance * Selecting elements * Modifying pages via classes, attributes, elements, and inner HTML * Listening and responding to events * Communicating with servers via AJAX requests and JSON * Using jQuery UI to create robust user interactions * Changing app look and feel with CSS3 * Serving diverse mobile devices * Creating and working with plugins * Using plugins to add Twitter feeds, integrate Google Maps, and control video widgets
