Laszlo in Action: Rich Web Applications with OpenLaszlo (Paperback)
Laszlo in Action is the first comprehensive guide to the Laszlo system
and its language LZX. OpenLaszlo is an increasingly popular open-source
platform for the development and delivery of rich internet applications
across multiple platforms: Flash, DHTML, and J2ME. The dramatic
emergence of Ajax over the past year was a first step in the transition
from page-oriented HTML web applications towards more full-featured rich
internet applications. OpenLaszlo provides another important step in
this continuing evolutionary process through the increased productivity
resulting from LZX's declarative approach. It provides developers with
the tools to create web-based applications offering the usability and
interactivity associated with desktop applications, and the low costs
associated with web-based deployment. The cross-platform nature of
Laszlo LZX applications allows source code with only minimum
modifications to run natively on all popular web browsers, on all
desktop operating systems, on the Flash platform, and other platforms
in the future. Written to address the needs of a wide spectrum of
developers, ranging from client-side HTML and JavaScript developers all
the way to enterprise-class Java or Rails engineers, this book provides
a very hands-on approach towards building applications that solve
real-world problems across both the Flash and DHTML platforms. Starting
with the fundamentals of Laszlo LZX, the authors quickly move towards
applying this knowledge to the design and development of a full-scale
application called the Laszlo Market. This provides a working context to
assist understanding the underlying concepts of Laszlo LZX and, more
importantly, how to apply this knowledge in innovative ways. The
construction of the Laszlo Market proceeds over the course of the book
illustrating topics starting with an initial wireframe and storyboard
design to optimization issues dealing with the application's deployment
across the Flash and DHTML platforms.
