Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
To create full stack web applications with high usability the course gives an overview of design principles and methods for interaction programming of client-server solutions. We examine how successful platforms and frameworks are designed to gain a better understanding of how one should program for respective framework. Client side technologies covered are advanced ReactJS: reducers, react-redux, containers and presentation components, complex components etc. Optimal use of remote data is examined and compared on React, Angular, Vue.
On the server side we look at design and use of e.g nodeJS, Firebase, Heroku, Docker. Between server and client, we look at communication technologies: advanced HTTPS, AJAX, JSON, web sockets, and web services.
Intended learning outcomes
Having passed the course, the student should be able to
- choose appropriate technical platforms or JavaScript frameworks to create useful distributed interactive web applications (e g client/server) or native applications.
- structure interactive systems according to established architectures and design patterns
- assess and improve the usability of existing interactive applications
in order to be able to plan and implement useful interactive applications with both client and server sides.
