This book will demonstrate its use, explain, and provide examples of important concepts of its API (Application Programming Interface). Over the past year I have created more than thirty Visual Studio LightSwitch HTML Client projects. While creating those projects, I ran into challenges that required me to go deep into the LightSwitch HTML Client API. This book covers the core concepts as well as the use of advanced techniques that I consider important to properly leverage this incredible tool. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnderstanding the LightSwitch HTML Client\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat Is Visual Studio LightSwitch?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Visual Studio LightSwitch HTML Client\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSingle Page Application (because faster is better)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCreate an End-To-End LightSwitch HTML Application\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow Does A LightSwitch HTML Client Application Work?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe LightSwitch HTML Client API\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Binding Pattern\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePromises\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking With Data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSearching Data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSetting Defaults\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDynamically Creating Records\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDeleting Data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking With Screens\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Visual Collection API\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eJavaScript\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eApplication Navigation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eShow a Message Box, and Respond To a User Selection\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCreate a Custom Modal Picker by Using A Popup\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCopy a Record - Show Add Edit Dialog with Initialized Parameters\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNavigating to a New Screen (and Returning)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter Editing -- Return Focus and Browser Position to the Item\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdvanced Topics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUsing ServerApplicationContext\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUsing WCF RIA Services\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdvanced JavaScript\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eControls\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUse a JQuery Mobile Control\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePrevent JQuery Mobile from Overriding Custom Controls\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTheming\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLightSwitch HTML for the Desktop\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Washington\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1490939458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781490939452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.52w x 0.60d","brand":"Michael Washington","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48217394381055,"sku":"9781490939452","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e07f07a3-6791-4043-b3d8-0dfb95eb7e1b.jpg?v=1771996953","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/creating-web-pages-using-the-michael-washington-9781490939452","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
