Building and maintaining cross-platform desktop applications with native languages isn’t a trivial task. Since it’s hard to simulate on a foreign platform, packaging and distribution can be quite platform-specific and testing cross-platform apps is pretty complicated.In such scenarios, web technologies such as HTML5 and JavaScript can be your lifesaver. HTML5 desktop applications can be distributed across different platforms (Window, MacOS, and Linux) without any modifications to the code. The book starts with a walk-through on building a simple file explorer from scratch powered by NW.JS. So you will practice the most exciting features of bleeding edge CSS and JavaScript. In addition you will learn to use the desktop environment integration API, source code protection, packaging, and auto-updating with NW.JS.As the second application you will build a chat-system example implemented with Electron and React. While developing the chat app, you will get Photonkit. Next, you will create a screen capturer with NW.JS, React, and Redux. Finally, you will examine an RSS-reader built with TypeScript, React, Redux, and Electron. Generic UI components will be reused from the React MDL library. By the end of the book, you will have built four desktop apps. You will have covered everything from planning, designing, and development to the enhancement, testing, and delivery of these apps.

Crowdsourcing. Jak angażować konsumentów w świat marek

Książka została wyróżniona w kwartalnym przeglądzie najważniejszych książek (lato 2013) opublikowanego przez THINKTANK. Zapraszamy do lektury przeglądu nowości wydawniczych Co tysiąc głów, to nie jedna Crowdsourcing to stosunkowo świeże zjawisko w marketingu. Polega na kreowaniu nowych produktów, ulepszaniu istniejących, proponowaniu innowacyjnych rozwiązań i aktywnym kształtowaniu marki w oparciu o mądrość konsumentów. Dzięki crowdsourcingowi wiele firm o globalnym zasięgu, takich jak Coca-Cola, Apple, IBM czy Google, zmieniło podejście do komunikacji. W wymyślanie nowych rozwiązań włączają swoich… konsumentów. Dziesiątki, setki, tysiące ludzi! Angażują ich i zyskują w zamian dostęp do wielu kreatywnych umysłów, które razem pracują o wiele efektywniej niż samodzielny pracownik działu innowacji. Tradycyjny marketing zakłada, że to firma jest jedynym „dawcą” komunikatu, treści, przekazu marketingowego, a konsument ma jedynie słuchać i kupować. Ta reguła obowiązywała jeszcze całkiem niedawno — zanim media społecznościowe zaczęły rządzić światem wirtualnym i zmieniły jednostronną komunikację (od firmy do konsumenta) w dialog, w którym obie strony mają głos i mogą się wzajemnie od siebie uczyć. Nigdy wcześniej marki nie były tak blisko swoich odbiorców — i na odwrót. Właściciel marki ma na wyciągnięcie ręki uwagi, pomysły i treści pochodzące z najlepszego źródła: wprost od użytkowników produktów i usług. Wystarczy nawiązać z nimi kontakt, słuchać, rozmawiać i… nauczyć się korzystać z potężnej siły crowdsourcingu. Czy jesteś gotów zaangażować konsumentów w świat Twojej marki? Partner merytoryczny:
