  • Introducing 2D Game Engine Development with Javascript
    CHAPTER 1 Introducing 2D Game Engine Development with JavaScript Video games are complex, interactive, multimedia software systems. These systems must, in real time, process player input, simulate the interactions of semi-autonomous objects, and generate high-fidelity graphics and audio outputs, all while trying to engage the players. Attempts at building video games can quickly be overwhelmed by the need to be well versed in software development as well as in how to create appealing player experiences. The first challenge can be alleviated with a software library, or game engine, that contains a coherent collection of utilities and objects designed specifically for developing video games. The player engagement goal is typically achieved through careful gameplay design and fine-tuning throughout the video game development process. This book is about the design and development of a game engine; it will focus on implementing and hiding the mundane operations and supporting complex simulations. Through the projects in this book, you will build a practical game engine for developing video games that are accessible across the Internet. A game engine relieves the game developers from simple routine tasks such as decoding specific key presses on the keyboard, designing complex algorithms for common operations such as mimicking shadows in a 2D world, and understanding nuances in implementations such as enforcing accuracy tolerance of a physics simulation. Commercial and well-established game engines such as Unity, Unreal Engine, and Panda3D present their systems through a graphical user interface (GUI). Not only does the friendly GUI simplify some of the tedious processes of game design such as creating and placing objects in a level, but more importantly, it ensures that these game engines are accessible to creative designers with diverse backgrounds who may find software development specifics distracting.

  • Teaching Introductory Programming with Javascript in Higher Education
    Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Applied Informatics Eger, Hungary, January 29–February 1, 2014. Vol. 1. pp. 339–350 doi: 10.14794/ICAI.9.2014.1.339 Teaching introductory programming with JavaScript in higher education Győző Horváth, László Menyhárt Department of Media & Educational Informatics, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary [email protected] [email protected] Abstract As the Internet penetration rate continuously increases and web browsers show a substantial development, the web becomes a more general and ubiq- uitous application runtime platform, where the programming language on the client side exclusively is JavaScript. This is the reason why recently JavaScript is more often considered as the lingua franca of the web, or, from a different point of view, the universal virtual machine of the web. In ad- dition, the JavaScript programming language appears in many other areas of informatics due to the wider usage of the HTML-based technology, and the embedded nature of the language. Consequently, in these days it is quite difficult to program without getting in touch with JavaScript in some way. In this article we are looking for answers to how the JavaScript language is suitable for being an introductory language in the programming related subjects of the higher education. First we revisit the different technologies that lead to and ensure the popularity of JavaScript. Following, current approaches using JavaScript as an introductory language are overviewed and analyzed. Next, a curriculum of an introductory programming course at the Eötvös Loránd University is presented, and a detailed investigation is given about how the JavaScript language would fit in the expectations and requirements of this programming course.

I Client-side scripts to interact with the user. I Communicates asynchronously and alters document content. I Used with Node.js in server side scripting, game development, mobile applications, etc. I Has thousands of libraries that can be used to carry out various tasks. JavaScript is NOT Java I Names can be deceiving. I Java is a full-fledged object-oriented programming language. I Java is popular for developing large-scale distributed enterprise applications and web applications. I JavaScript is a browser-based scripting language developed by Netscape and implemented in all major browsers. I JavaScript is executed by the browsers on the client side. JavaScript and other languages JavaScript borrows the elements from a variety of languages. I Object orientation from Java. I Syntax from C. I Semantics from Self and Scheme. Whats a script? I A program written for a special runtime environment. I Interpreted (as opposed to compiled). I Used to automate tasks. I Operates at very high levels of abstraction. Whats JavaScript? I Developed at Netscape to perform client side validation. I Adopted by Microsoft in IE 3.0 (1996). I Standardized in 1996. Current standard is ECMAScript 6 (2016). I Specifications for ECMAScript 2016 are out. I CommonJS used for development outside the browser. JavaScript uses I JavaScript has an insanely large API and library. I It is possible to do almost anything with JavaScript. I Write small scripts/apps for your webpage.

  • Hi, My Name Is Chad Ausen, Technical Director at IMVU, and Today We're Go
    Hi, my name is Chad Aus0n, technical director at IMVU, and today we’re going to talk about a library we’ve developed for connec0ng C++ and JavaScript with Emscripten. 1 2 IMVU is an online social plaorm where you can sign up, dress up an avatar, and meet people from all around the world. We offer other ac0vi0es such as games as well. 3 The content in our world is created by our customers, and to our knowledge, we have the largest catalog of 3D virtual goods on the Internet. 4 We currently offer a downloadable applicaon for Windows and Mac. Windows and Mac are great plaorms, but in recent years, other plaorms have grown to prominence. We’d like our content available everywhere: mobile plaorms, desktop, server-side renderers, and even the web browser! For almost all plaorms, it’s obvious that C++ is a great choice for the core engine. However, our big ques0on was, what about the web browser? In 2011, I benchmarked an upcoming tool called Emscripten and was quite impressed. 5 Emscripten works very well in prac0ce, so the implicaon is that C++ is the portable, high-performance language EVERYWHERE. 6 Here is our Emscripten applicaon running in Firefox. UI is HTML and CSS. Chat over WebSockets, graphics in WebGL. 7 asm.js is the subset of JavaScript that can be stacally compiled into machine code. More informaon at h`p://asmjs.org/ 8 The C heap is stored in an ArrayBuffer in JavaScript. One con0guous blob of memory. This memory is indexed by eight different typed array views that alias each other.

Take for instance, a lot of sophisticated apps are being produced and release in the Object oriented programming paradigm in software market today through the application of OOP. Almost desktop development is one of the most popular methods in the apps are being converted to mobile apps through Java, C++, information technology industry and academia as well as in PHP & MySQL, R, Python etc platform which form the many other forms of engineering design. Software testimony of OOP in the software industries. Software development is a field of engineering that came into existence developer has been revolving using procedural language for owing to the various problems that developers of software the past decade before the advent of OOP. The relationships faced while developing software projects. This paper analyzes between them is that procedural languages focus on the some of the most important technological innovations in algorithm but OOP focuses on the object model itself, object oriented software engineering in recent times.
