Overview of this book

High-performance web development is all about cutting through the complexities in different layers of a web app and building services and APIs that improve the speed and performance of your apps on the browser. With emerging web technologies, building scalable websites and sustainable web apps is smoother than ever. This book starts by taking you through the web frontend, popular web development practices, and the latest version of ES and JavaScript. You'll work with Node.js and learn how to build web apps without a framework. The book consists of three hands-on examples that help you understand JavaScript applications at both the server-side and the client-side using Node.js and Svelte.js. Each chapter covers modern techniques such as DOM manipulation and V8 engine optimization to strengthen your understanding of the web. Finally, you’ll delve into advanced topics such as CI/CD and how you can harness their capabilities to speed up your web development dramatically. By the end of this web development book, you'll have understood how the JavaScript landscape has evolved, not just for the frontend but also for the backend, and be ready to use new tools and techniques to solve common web problems.

An example of this is that we have the buy and sell orders for a list of customers.

This data may come back in the following manner:

{
customerId : "<guid>",
buy : 1000000,
sell : 1000000
}

With this data, we may want to add some context that the customer ID is associated with. We could go about this in two ways:

  • First, we could have a join operation done in the database that adds the required information for the user.
  • Second, and the one we will be illustrating here, is adding this data on the frontend when we get the base-level query...
