A practical go-to reference for Web developers programming
custom software for Web sites
Most advanced Web sites or Web platforms have specific
requirements that go beyond standard functionality; to meet such
requirements, it’s often necessary to develop custom software. This
is the point where code and content meet, and where this book
begins. Where Code and Content Meet presents a collection of
real-world, tried and tested patterns that address content-related
aspects of custom software development for advanced Web sites or
platforms.
Mined from a series of successful Web projects, the patterns
represent collected expertise of designers from several software
development teams and serve as a practical guide to designing your
own content-related custom components for your Web project. The
patterns are independent of specific tools and technologies, and
focus on non-functional requirements, with the overall goal of
defining sustainable software architecture.
* Presents a collection of tried and tested software patterns
mined from a series of successful Web projects
* Includes checklists for managing Web projects and real-world
patterns from PLo P conferences
* Illustrates use of software patterns through a case study that
runs throughout the book and gradually evolves as the patterns are
applied to it, one by one
* Covers content modeling and content organization, navigation,
findability, personalization, and user participation
By employing the software patterns included in Where Code and
Content Meet, you’ll learn how to program custom software
faster and more efficiently.
