DH2642 Interaction Programming and the Dynamic Web 7.5 credits

Administer About course

Interaction programming gives the basic Model-View-Presenter principles for developing interactive applications. These principles can be applied to many desktop, mobile or web apps frameworks. The course currently applies these principles to web applications, using JavaScript, JSX, HTML, CSS  and frameworks like React and Vue.js. These front-end applications use data from remote back-ends using web APIs.
