Frontend developers have to consider many things: browser compatibility, usability, performance, scalability, SEO, and other best practices. But the most fundamental aspect of creating websites is one that often falls short: accessibility. Accessibility is the cornerstone of any website, and if a website is inaccessible, users won't be able to interact with it, obtain information, sign up for services, or buy products. The Web Accessibility Cookbook provides you with dozens of recipes to help you avoid these failures. You'll learn how to build common components, such as main navigation, filters, and dialogs, in an accessible manner. Each recipe not only explains how to build things but also why. Author Manuel Matuzovic provides the knowledge you need to create your own accessible components and address your users' varying needs, abilities, and preferences. What makes accessibility technically interesting, besides its human nature, is its complexity, range, and interrelationship with other disciplines on the web. To make accessible websites, you need a core knowledge of user interaction (UI) design, user experience (UX), usability, performance, content strategy, search-engine optimization (SEO), and security. This book is for anyone who writes front-end code: front-end developers, UX engineers, full-stack and back-end developers. It doesn’t matter if you’re new to web development or have been writing HTML, CSS, and jаvascript for over a decade. You want to learn how to structure pages and components with HTML and how semantic elements affect user experience. You know CSS and want to learn how to style your websites in a way that serves your users. You are interested in ARIA and how to use it efficiently to improve the experience of interactive components written in jаvascript.

Explore deadly ruins while learning to make Django apps blazing fast. Veteran Python developer Andrew Brookins guides you through dangers in this book on database performance tuning. Want to be an expert Django developer? Master performance. An expert can jump into any Django project, profile slow pages and APIs, and tune the underlying database queries. Most performance problems in web applications come down to one thing: the database. With Django, the situation is no different — in fact, in some ways it’s even worse than that of our ORM-hating colleagues. Caching can only take you so far. You need to go deeper, to the source. And most performance problems in Django start in the same place. The database. But database performance tuning in Django involves a dizzying number of ORM API methods. And all this rests on top of the already complex machinery of SQL queries and indexes. To fully master database performance with Django, reading through API documentation is not enough. You need to become an expert. This book is written for Django developers who use a relational database and want to push their database-related code as fast as it can go. You should have experience with Python and Django. The focus of this book is on relational databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite — databases accessible through the core models and migrations systems provided with Django. You should have experience with relational databases and SQL. However, the reason this book exists is to level up your knowledge of these two topics where they intersect with Django, so we will spend a good amount of time discussing them.

When you launch an application on the web, every hacker in the world has access to it. Are you sure your web apps can stand up to the most sophisticated attacks? Grokking Web Application Security teaches you how to build web apps that are ready for and resilient to any attack. It’s laser-focused on what the working programmer needs to know about web security, and is fully illustrated with concrete examples and essential advice from author Malcolm McDonald’s extensive career. You’ll learn what motivates hackers to hack a site, discover the latest tools for identifying security issues, and set up a development lifecycle that catches security issues early. Read it cover to cover for a comprehensive overview of web security, and dip in as a reference whenever you need to tackle a specific vulnerability. Web application security is a curious subject area, in that every programmer (even fresh out of boot camp or with a recent computer science degree in hand) will have a fair knowledge of it, but we tend to feel (quite correctly) that we should know a little bit more. Doing your own research on the web can feel like walking into a disorganized library and picking up random texts, hoping to gain some good insights. Furthermore, nobody loves going to their boss and admitting that they have gaps in their knowledge, so we tend to be a little insecure about what we might not know. Launching a web application on the internet is a daunting task. The steps you take along the road to deploying a web app can be onerous: designing and coding your web pages, adding interactivity using jаvascript, implementing the backend services and connecting them to a data store, choosing a hosting platform, and registering a domain name. The result is worthwhile, of course: your website will be available to billions of users immediately, thanks to the magic of the internet.

Leverage the power of the Shadow DOM API to quickly create encapsulated code that keeps markup and styles separate within websites. Using little more than a text editor or free software, this project-oriented book simplifies the process of creating and manipulating the Shadow DOM API code in the browser for websites or online applications. You'll use a starting toolset to develop future projects, incorporate them into an existing workflow, and allow them to simplify complex components. This makes them more robust and less brittle when used in websites. You'll also see that websites do not have to convert the whole work process immediately; you can incorporate as little or as much as needed of the API, and build on this as your skills develop. We live in an age where speed and simplicity are of the essence. Beginning Shadow DOM API shows you the perfect way to create encapsulated code that can run in multiple frameworks with a minimum of fuss. Beginning Shadow DOM API uses nothing more than standard jаvascript, CSS, and HTML, three of the most powerful tools available for developers: you can enhance, extend, and configure your components as requirements dictate. With this API, the art of possible is only limited by the extent of your imagination and the power of jаvascript, HTML, and Node.js.
