Building Isomorphic JavaScript Apps: From Concept to Implementation to Real-World Solutions

Rate this book
Often referred to as the holy grail of web application development, isomorphic JavaScript lets you run the same code on both the browser client and web application server. This hands-on guide shows you a practical approach to building and maintaining your own isomorphic JavaScript apps. Youâ??ll learn why this application architecture has become an increasingly popular way to fix business-critical issues such as page-load speeds and SEO compatibility. Isomorphic JavaScript is becoming a real game changer, even for teams used to very different server stacks. Authors Jason Strimpel and Maxime Najim demonstrate why companies including Walmart, Airbnb, Facebook, and Netflix have adopted isomorphic libraries.

Quite a brief overview of what actually 'isomorphic app' means and why and when you should apply it. Just enough for basic understanding and little general overview of existing solutions.

Initial two parts are just OK, but they consist of pretty basic descriptions that you could easily find on the web within 5 minutes. But what this book is really about is the 3rd part (nearly 1/3 of the book), which is a list of actual case studies - (3 or 4 if I remember correctly) - quite detailed, with full rationale, nice description of the approach, obstacles & the final effect. What is even more interesting, these cases are really very different, so you're getting an insight into truly varying scenarios.
