WebFund 2013W Lecture 10

Lecture

Audio from the lecture given on February 7, 2013 is here.

Also, here is jquery-ui-express, the example discussed in class. To run this code you will need to:

• Install node and npm. Note this example was developed with version 0.8.19.
• Install express, generally by running npm install express -g.
• unzip jquery-ui-express.zip
• cd jquery-ui-express; npm install (to get the correct node_modules directory set up)
• node app.js

This example is a node port of the standalone html demo demo-jquery-ui covered in last week's tutorial.
