The book presumes the reader has working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. While the basics of these technologies are not covered, their new and near-future capabilities are described in detail. This no-nonsense book provides clear explanations and practical examples that show how these technologies are implemented on devices ranging from tiny phone screens to giant HDTVs. Techniques and best practices help developers anticipate and deal with the challenges of displaying content across multiple devices despite quirky browsers and constantly changing technologies. As GIS has expanded, many GIS professionals who have been focused on applications for the desktop now find themselves involved in the development of applications for the web and mobile devices. This lucidly written book can help get them quickly up to speed.
