ASP.NET MVC 5 with Bootstrap and Knockout.js: Building Dynamic, Responsive Web Applications

by Jamie Munro

Bring dynamic server-side web content and responsive web design together to build websites that work and display well on any resolution, desktop or mobile. With this practical book, you’ll learn how by combining the ASP.NET MVC server-side language, the Bootstrap front-end framework, and Knockout.js―the JavaScript implementation of the Model-View-ViewModel pattern. Author Jamie Munro introduces these and other related technologies by having you work with sophisticated web forms. At the end of the book, experienced and aspiring web developers alike will learn how to build a complete shopping cart that demonstrates how these technologies interact with each other in a sleek, dynamic, and responsive web application.

Informative!

I enjoyed this book. I was not familiar with knockout.js, so it was a good primer on using that with asp.net. I hope to try this out soon.

Wow it took me a long time to get through this. Found myself lost a lot--I don't think that's a reflection of the writing so much as I was just lost going back and forth through various files and technologies. I'm still kind of a newb at javascript. The finished shopping cart was pretty cool, but I wound up with an error I could not figure out how to resolve and had to revert to the finished code. Hate that. Also wish we could have run the project at more intervals to see each new piece in action before moving onto the next piece. Maybe I'll get it the second time around??
