Backbase 4 RIA Development

Description

This book is a good read for the more seasoned rich internet developer. I have had my fair share of frontend technologies and was ready for the next step. Backbase technology is a complex matter with a mature architecture and it's enterprise grade design and development principles are not always easy to understand. The book's major strenght is on explaining the design principles of Backbase and the choices being made. Even when you decide that Backbase is not the platform for you, this books show so much insight on the Backbase vision towards the way frontends should be designed, it will probably change your way of development nonetheless. The step by step examples and thorough explanation made my hands itch to start programming, test the examples in the book, and just play around with the framework. While reading I felt inspired to re think aspects of my most recent projects, and upcoming work. For me personally, the amount of inspiration I get, is heavily effecting the way I feel about a book. "Backbase 4 RIA Develoment" has hit this spot on! For people just starting with webdevelopment, this book - or more likely Backbase Client Framework itself - might be one leap to far. If you have done some work in this field, this book can align your thoughts, strenghten your frontend vision, and prepare you for the next grade in frontend development.
