One option is to learn the languages at home by taking web-based courses. There are online search engines, like the prominent Degree Jungle, that can help students find an accredited or certified web developer degree program. However, if you’re looking to build your skills without requiring a certificate or degree of some sort, there are a lot of non-accredited options. And guess what? Many of these options cost nothing. The list below are just a few of the most popular and (mostly) free-of-charge web development training options.

A simple way to add beautiful animations to your angular apps. Animations based off animate.css. All animations are built in JavaScript. ng-Fx does not rely on CSS for animations. This allows it to be dynamic and able to adjust on the fly. The only predefined CSS classes are the animations and the easings. ngAnimate allows ngFx to create JavaScript based animations, so the classes do not correspond to a style in a CSS file.

JavaScript front-end codebases grow larger and more difficult to maintain. As a way to solve this issue developers have been turning to MVC frameworks which promise increased productivity and maintainable code. InfoQ asked the opinion of experts practitioners about how they use these frameworks and the best practices they follow when developing JavaScript applications. We'll go beyond buzzwords and get practical insight from experts about what has actually worked for them. We'll also talk about technologies (like AngularJS) that go a step further, and define the future of how the standards and web development will evolve.

Intention behind chaining technologies like Ember.js + Sails.js +PostgreSQL is to foster the below best practices in our end-to-end web application development (i.e. both client-side & server-side development). Best Practices
By focusing on the above goodies, our goal in this blog-post is to primarily showcase technical details on how to chain such technologies together and at the same time introduce you to the rapid web application development that are highly maintainable.

What are web components you ask? In a nutshell, web components give you a way to create your own custom HTML elements which can do just about anything you need them to. Instead of loading up your sites with verbose markup, long scripts and repetitive code, you wrap everything up into nice, neat little custom HTML elements. The easiest way to understand how web components allow for custom HTML elements is to first look at an existing element we already know from HTML5: the <video> tag.

While there are other single page app frameworks, Pink is unique because it combines the great Ink CSS and JavaScript framework with the fabulous Knockout data binding library, giving you a no frills, lightweight and modular approach for building awesome apps. Pink was made possible by the great people from SAPO's intranet team, where we use it to build a number of line of business apps.

Build and use reusable components in Backbone.js and Marionette.js to make clean and modular code. Components are critical to scaleable applications because they encourage separation of concerns. Each piece of an application, including components, should have one responsibility and not heavily depend on the other pieces. Applications with tightly coupled modules or a lack of division of work will become incredibly more difficult to maintain and amend with newer features. Adding a single feature could require changing code in several places. Altering a function here breaks a function there, which then requires this other function to handle another parameter.

Meteor is the new isomorphic JavaScript framework that will make developer's lives so much easier and make users fall in love with your app again. I recently published a rather sarcastic article based on all the FUD I have been hearing the last couple of weeks about what I believe...

Meteor makes it dead simple to write real-time JavaScript applications. Real-time applications that update all content for all users all the time. No waiting. No hassles. And we'll use it to live-code an application -- one that kills dinosaurs -- which we will then live-deploy so everyone can help.

mber.js does not provide any code generators, and there is no established idiom or best practices for CRUD in Ember.js. In this series I will show how to build a basic CRUD interface in Ember.js, complete with user input validation. In this example, we will build a CRUD interface for products in an online book store. The tools that we will use are:

his plugin allows you to run code inside web workers in the browser (i.e. in background threads) and access the results easily within your ember app. This is particularly useful when you're dealing with large quantities of data, or computationally expensive algorithms within your app that would otherwise lock up the browser for a period of time.

A reusable Ember.js component for easily adding pagination controls to your user interface. To begin, I created a component with two properties: currentPage and totalPages. In order to actually display a list from this, I created a computed property named pageItems that would generate some objects to drive the UI. I also added an action handler to support selecting a new page...

Director is a router. Routing is the process of determining what code to run when a URL is requested. A routing library that works in both the browser and node.js environments with as few differences as possible. Simplifies the development of Single Page Apps and Node.js applications. Dependency free (doesn't require jQuery or Express, etc).

Proponents of AMD and CommonJS – two different 'specs' around creating modules in JavaScript – have been arguing foryears at this point over which one is the best approach. I've heard devs on both sides of the debate declare that their side had won, debate over. Myopic nonsense. It's easy to come away from this debate thinking you're stuck with an "either-or" decision. After all - they're very different approaches. Requiring modules in an AMD scenario is an asynchronous operation, and the opposite is true of the CJS inline-require approach.

My plan was initially quite complicated, but i took a step back in the planning phase and set myself a first goal: the app must be simple. Like first Twitter was simple. Only implement basic functions and make it usable. It was going to be a place where you can ask questions, with a fixed number of answers, and other people could answer them anonymously. It would not need images (except kittens) and will have the smallest number of pages possible.

I've been using Promises in my ember code for long enough now that I've started to internalize how they work. So, when I started writing acceptance tests using the ember async test helpers (`visit`, `click`, and so on), I assumed that since those helpers are referred to as "async helpers", they would be promises and I should chain them all together in my test to ensure that the asynchronous activity all happens in the correct order. I understood that ember's testing framework is now promise-aware, and I presumed that meant it would notice when the return value of my test was a promise, and wait for that promise to settle before finishing the test.

This post in going to explore the idea of writing your own Ember macros as a strategy for DRYing up and creating more modular Ember code. As you'll see, besides the maintainability and flexibility benefits gained by DRYing up and decoupling code, isolated code is significantly easier to test. We'll be using a sample application to illustrate refactoring some code into a macro.
