Chapter 3. SPA for Timesheet Management

In this chapter, we will realize a full-featured SPA for a shifts-based working company.

We will create a login form to give access to two different kinds of people: workers and team managers; we give them a dashboard to check the status of the days, and a grid to manage rest days, holiday assignation, and time-related tasks.

By the end of this chapter, you'll know:

  • What is an SPA, which kind of libraries/frameworks we can use to realize an SPA, and how to choose between them.

  • What is DurandalJS, and how can we use it for our project.

  • How to use the hash mark to create an improved navigation experience with multiple routes.

  • How to realize dashboards and grids (with sorting, paging, and asynchronous data loading).

Let's start with the project.
