- About the Authors
Modern frontend development is the art of building the digital bridge between users and technology, and mastering it requires more than just code. It requires not only technical expertise in UI/UX principles and web technologies, but a deep understanding of the psychological mechanisms that determine whether users engage with or leave the screens we build.
This book bridges the gap between design and development through a structured approach. Readers will explore the psychology that governs human perception, understanding the cognitive mechanisms behind user engagement. It covers UI/UX principles, design fundamentals, and accessibility standards, equipping readers to craft intuitive and engaging user experiences grounded in psychological insight. It will build a solid foundation in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, enabling you to create responsive, dynamic web applications. It covers the essential building blocks of modern web development and helps implement contemporary JavaScript techniques. The final section addresses concrete implementation with the most popular frontend frameworks, Blazor, React, and Angular.
By the end of this book, readers will be equipped to build interactive, scalable, and user-friendly web experiences that stand out in today's competitive digital landscape, combining psychological understanding with technical proficiency.
