Front End Development for Back End Developers - Denver Startup Week 2017

Are you a backend developer that’s being pushed into front end development? Are you frustrated with all JavaScript frameworks and build tools you have to learn to be a good UI developer? If so, this session is for you! We’ll explore the tools of the trade for fronted development (npm, yarn, Gulp, Webpack, Yeoman) and learn the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I'll dive into the intricacies of Bootstrap, Material Design, ES6, and TypeScript. Finally, after getting you up to speed with all this new tech, I'll show how it can all be found and integrated through the fine and dandy JHipster project.

  4. What about You? How many consider themselves backend developers? Java,

    .NET, Python, or Node.js? Do you write code for UIs? Do you like JavaScript? What JavaScript Frameworks do you use?
  5. OAuth 2.0 Overview Today’s Agenda JavaScript / TypeScript Build Tools

    JavaScript Frameworks CSS Progressive Web Apps JHipster
  6. TypeScript $ npm install -g typescript function greeter(person: string) {


    return "Hello, " + person;
 }
 
 var user = "Jane User";
 
 document.body.innerHTML = greeter(user); $ tsc greeter.ts https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/tutorial.html
  7. “Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript

    engine. Node.js uses an event-driven, non- blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. Node.js' package ecosystem, npm, is the largest ecosystem of open source libraries in the world.” https://nodejs.org https://github.com/creationix/nvm
  8. Front End Build Tools Old School: Gulp New School: SystemJS

    Hip: Webpack Web Dependencies: Old School: Bower New School: npm Hip: yarn
  9. Yeoman The web's scaffolding tool for modern webapps Helps you

    kickstart new projects Promotes the Yeoman workflow yeoman.io
  10. Write and Bundle // bar.js export default function bar() {

    // code here } // app.js import bar from './bar'; bar(); // webpack.config.js module.exports = { entry: './app.js', output: { filename: 'bundle.js' } } <!-- index.html --> <html> <head> ... </head> <body> ... <script src="bundle.js"></script> </body> </html>
  11. webpack.config.js module.exports = { entry: './src/app.js', output: { path: __dirname

    + '/src/main/webapp/public', filename: 'bundle.js' }, module: { loaders: [ { test: /.js$/, loader: 'babel', exclude: /node_modules/, query: { presets: ['es2015', 'react'] } } ] } };

  16. Hello World with Angular import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms'; import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, FormsModule, HttpModule ], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }

    Worth all your hard earned $$$ https://www.ng-book.com/2 “Thank you for the awesome book, it's the bible for Angular.” — Vijay Ganta
  19. Imperative Code if (count > 99) { if (!hasFile()) {

    addFire(); } } else { if (hasFire()) { removeFire(); } } if (count === 0) { if (hasBadge()) { removeBadge(); } return; } if (!hasBadge()) { addBadge(); } var countText = count > 99 ? "99+" : count.toString(); getBadge().setText(countText);
  20. Declarative Code if (count === 0) { return <div className="bell"/>;

    } else if (count <= 99) { return ( <div className="bell"> <span className="badge">{count}</span> </div> ); } else { return ( <div className="bell onFire"> <span className="badge">99+</span> </div> ); }
  21. Hello World with Vue.js https://jsfiddle.net/chrisvfritz/50wL7mdz/ <div id="app"> <p>{{ message }}</p>

    </div> <script> new Vue({ el: '#app', data: { message: 'Hello Vue.js!' } }); </script>

  23. Cascading Style Sheets #app { background: #eee; } .blog-post {

    padding: 20px; } .blog-post > p:first { font-weight: 400; } img + span.caption { font-style: italic; }
  24. Sass: Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets #app { background: #eee; .blog-post

  26. Front End Performance Optimization Reduce HTTP Requests Gzip HTML, JavaScript,

    and CSS Far Future Expires Headers Code Minification Optimize Images
  27. HTTP/2 Binary, instead of textual Fully multiplexed, instead of ordered

    and blocking Can use one connection for parallelism Uses header compression to reduce overhead Allows servers to “push” responses proactively into client caches
  28. HTTP/2 in JHipster /* * Enable HTTP/2 for Undertow -

    https://twitter.com/ankinson/status/829256167700492288 * HTTP/2 requires HTTPS, so HTTP requests will fallback to HTTP/1.1. * See the JHipsterProperties class and your application-*.yml configuration files * for more information. */ if (jHipsterProperties.getHttp().getVersion().equals(JHipsterProperties.Http.Version.V_2_0)) { if (container instanceof UndertowEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) { ((UndertowEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) container) .addBuilderCustomizers((builder) -> { builder.setServerOption(UndertowOptions.ENABLE_HTTP2, true); }); } }
  29. HTTP/2 Server Push in Java http://bit.ly/dz-server-push-java @WebServlet(value = {"/http2"}) public

    class Http2Servlet extends HttpServlet { @Override protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) { PushBuilder pushBuilder = req.newPushBuilder(); pushBuilder.path("images/kodedu-logo.png") .addHeader("content-type", "image/png") .push(); try (PrintWriter respWriter = resp.getWriter();) { respWriter.write("<html>" + "<img src='images/kodedu-logo.png'>" + "</html>"); } } }
  30. Mobile Hates You! How to fight back: Implement PRPL Get

    a ~$150-200 unlocked Android (e.g. Moto G4) Use chrome://inspect && chrome://inspect?tracing Lighthouse DevTools Network & CPU Throttling
  31. The PRPL Pattern Push critical resources for the initial URL

    route Render initial route Pre-cache remaining routes Lazy-load and create remaining routes on demand

  35. What You Learned ES6 and TypeScript Node.js and nvm Angular,

    React, and Vue.js CSS and Sass Front End Performance Optimization Progressive Web Apps
  36. Try

  37. Software Testing With motorcycles, you drive to test them. With

    software, you can test it without driving it. Or rather, you can automate the driving. If you don’t automate tests, you’re still testing!
  38. Action! Don’t be afraid to try new things Learn JavaScript

    or TypeScript Try one of these frameworks Form your own opinions Or just wait a few months…
