About the Book

This book covers the the skills and techniques necessary for creating sophisticated and accessible interactive web applications. It focuses on the client-side languages, tools, and libraries that professionals use to build the web sites you use every day. It assumes a basic background in computer programming (e.g., introductory programming in Java or Python), and some concepts from the technical foundations of informatics). These materials were developed for the INFO 340: Client-Side Web Development course taught at the University of Washington Information School; however they have been structured to be an online resource for anyone who wishes to learn web programming.
