New book: Web API Cookbook

Announcing my new book from O'Reilly Media, Web API Cookbook!

It's now available from Amazon and O'Reilly

The book contains examples or "recipes" demonstrating how to accomplish specific tasks using only the APIs built in to modern web browsers.

Many things that once required third-party JavaScript libraries or browser plugins are now supported by the browser platform itself.

The book covers topics such as:

  • Working with persisted data and local files
  • Internationalization
  • Speech synthesis and recognition
  • Communciating with APIs and real-time data
  • Reacting to changes in the DOM
  • Custom elements
  • Reading device information and sensors
  • Performance statistics
  • The Web Animations API
