Course Content:

• Managing the Application Life Cycle
• Platform fundamentals
• Packaging and the runtime environment: app package, app container, credentials/permission sets, host process, leverage existing HTML5 skills and content for slate/tablet applications.
• Manage the state of an application
• Manage session state, app state and persist state information; understand states of an application; understand the differences between local and session storage.
• Debug and test a HTML5 touch-enabled application
• Touch gestures; gestures you test on a device.

• Use flexible box and grid layouts to establish content alignment, direction and orientation; proportional scaling and use of "free scale" for elements within a flexible box or grid; order and arrange content; concepts for using flex box for simple layouts and grid for complex layouts; grid content properties for rows and columns; use application templates.
• Managing Text Flow by Using CSS
• Regions and using regions to flow text content between multiple sections (content source, content container, dynamic flow, flow-into, flow-from, msRegionUpdate, msRegionOverflow, msGetRegionContent); columns and hyphenation and using these CSS settings to optimise the readability of text; use "positioned floats" to create text flow around a floating object

• JavaScript and coding essentials
• Manage and maintain JavaScript, Create and use functions; jQuery and other third-party libraries. Update the UI by using JavaScript Locate/access elements; listen and respond to events; show and hide elements; update the content of elements.
• Animations, Graphics, and Accessing Data
• Code animations with JavaScript
• animation; manipulate the canvas; work with images, shapes and other graphics.
• Access data access by using JavaScript
• Send and receive data; transmit complex objects and parsing; load and save files; App Cache; datatypes; forms; cookies; localStorage
