Jamie Munro : Knockout.js: Building Dynamic Client-Side Web Applications before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Knockout.js: Building Dynamic Client-Side Web Applications:

Watch the black tree kangaroo's claws slice through and eliminate needless dynamic user interface code...By ewomackKnockout.js has become a standard for creating flexible and lightweight but heavy duty web user interfaces. Just a few years ago it seemed like a mere rumor circulating amongst the knows and the know-nots. Given its ability to cut down on lines of code and implementation time, it has become an essential tool. O'Reilly has released, complete with requisite animal cover, a small book that more than adequately covers this now almost ubiquitous JavaScript framework. Though Knockout delivers plenty of functionality, there really isn't much to the framework and many will master the fundamentals rapidly. As such, this book contains just over 80 pages, including the index, and manages to discuss just about everything anyone would want to know. The only drawback remains the irresistible desire to make lame boxing puns when referring to it. Spare everyone and resist.Things begin very simply with basic examples. This book contains a lot of code. But first it briefly explains how to install Knockout (not a Herculean task for those who can download), its underlying MVVM model, and view model creation. Different ways to bind follow, including HTML, CSS, conditional binding and the all important context (comprising references to $root, $parent, etc). More examples clearly demonstrate "foreach" and "with" binding, observables, observableArrays, computed observables, binding to forms, using multiple view models, Knockout templates, working on the server side (many of these examples require a working web server; the book recommends XAMPP) and the mapping plugin (which makes properties observable and comes in handy for large data objects). A final example brings everything together to create a dynamic shopping cart. For those unfamiliar with Knockout's capabilities, this example in particular will demonstrate its power. With very little code - the chapter only fills seven pages - a shopping cart with dynamic categories, cascading products and add and remove cart functionality appears almost magically (it doesn't look pretty, but this isn't a design book). This final example really helps drive the concepts deep into the brain's learning center. It will probably also become a reference for new comers to this framework.One understandable question that may arise to those looking at this book: "can't I just learn everything in this book from the free tutorials on the Knockout.js website?" The answer is probably yes and no. Some overlap obviously exists between the two, but the book uses a different approach, different explanations and probably more concrete real-world examples (especially the comprehensive shopping cart example). Anyone very serious about learning Knockout thoroughly will probably go through the tutorials and at least one book on the subject anyway. This book is short, inexpensive and easily digestible, so it makes a good companion to online tutorials. Not to mention it has a black tree kangaroo. Who else can claim that?1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Must have in your professional library.By A. StruthersYou know, O'Reilly books has never let me down. And Jamie Munro does an excellent excellent job in this short book. Well worth the money. So good, I bought extra copies to give to colleagues. Also, check out Jamie's ASP.NET MVC5 with Bootstrap and Knockout.js.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good but not great.By JeremyOverall its a decent introduction to knockout. However the knockout tutorials online contain almost as much information. There is not much more than is covered there.While I did pick up bits and pieces of new information the online tutorials are better simply for the fact that they are interactive.

Use Knockout.js to design and build dynamic client-side web applications that are extremely responsive and easy to maintain. This example-driven book shows you how to use this lightweight JavaScript framework and its Model-View- ViewModel (MVVM) pattern. You’ll learn how to build your own data bindings, extend the framework with reusable functions, and work with a server to enhance your client-side application with persistence. In the final chapter, you’ll build a shopping cart to see how everything fits together.If you’re a with experience in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, you’re ready for Knockout.Learn how to create a ViewModelBind HTML data and attributes, and CSS classes and stylesUnderstand data binding in Knockout’s context hierarchyUse properties that change dynamically through user interactionWork with forms by using several different bindingsBind multiple ViewModels on a single pageExtend or attach custom functions to observablesPerform server-side interactions with jQueryMap a JavaScript object or apply JSON data to a new object
