By: Diego Argüelles Rojas, Erikson Murrugarra

Overview of this book

Hands-On Full Stack Web Development with Aurelia begins with a review of basic JavaScript concepts and the structure of an Aurelia application generated with the Aurelia-CLI tool. You will learn how to create interesting and intuitive application using the Aurelia-Materialize plugin, which implements the material design approach. Once you fully configure a FIFA World Cup 2018 app, you'll start creating the initial components through TDD practices and then develop backend services to process and store all the user data. This book lets you explore the NoSQL model and implement it using one of the most popular NoSQL databases, MongoDB, with some exciting libraries to make the experience effortless. You'll also be able to add some advanced behavior to your components, from managing the lifecycle properly to using dynamic binding, field validations, and the custom service layer. You will integrate your application with Google OAuth Service and learn best practices to secure your applications. Furthermore, you'll write UI Testing scripts to create high-quality Aurelia Apps and explore the most used tools to run end-to-end tests. In the concluding chapters, you'll be able to deploy your application to the Cloud and Docker containers. By the end of this book, you will have learned how to create rich applications using best practices and modern approaches.

Summary


In this final chapter of the book, you learned how to deploy web applications on self-managed or on-premise servers and also how to take advantage of the cloud.

You learned how to use Docker to deploy applications. Using Docker will help you in all the phases of development, so we strongly encourage you to buy a Docker book and start learning about it right now!

We also covered how to deploy applications on top of Heroku. Heroku is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that will manage and monitor your applications for you. So you don't have to worry about infrastructure; you just need to worry about creating awesome applications.

Finally, you came across how to deploy applications using AWS S3 buckets to deploy applications without any virtual server configuration.
