Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Ever since Martin Fowler came out with his seminal book on patterns, others have taken this general idea and looked for more programming patterns. This book is the latest in Wiley's series that applies this approach. Here the context is specialised to the design of web sites, where Ajax is used in the web pages. Granted, the applications are more restricted than, say, the pattern of singleton or iterator. But for readers tasked with developing a website and hoping to do it cleanly, the book can be useful.
A key idea is how to separate content and navigation. Another concept is where you have a search engine. The book treats this engine in modular fashion, as a black box, where your web page visitor feeds in a query and your web server forwards this to the engine and formats the reply. For many commercial websites, a search engine can be a de facto necessity, and the book's advice is timely.

A practical go-to reference for Web developers programming custom software for Web sites
Most advanced Web sites or Web platforms have specific requirements that go beyond standard functionality; to meet such requirements, it's often necessary to develop custom software. This is the point where code and content meet, and where this book begins. Where Code and Content Meet presents a collection of real-world, tried and tested patterns that address content-related aspects of custom software development for advanced Web sites or platforms.
Mined from a series of successful Web projects, the patterns represent collected expertise of designers from several software development teams and serve as a practical guide to designing your own content-related custom components for your Web project. The patterns are independent of specific tools and technologies, and focus on non-functional requirements, with the overall goal of defining sustainable software architecture.
Presents a collection of tried and tested software patterns mined from a series of successful Web projects
Includes checklists for managing Web projects and real-world patterns from PLoP conferences
Illustrates use of software patterns through a case study that runs throughout the book and gradually evolves as the patterns are applied to it, one by one
Covers content modeling and content organization, navigation, findability, personalization, and user participation
By employing the software patterns included in Where Code and Content Meet, you'll learn how to program custom software faster and more efficiently.
