Читать книгу HTML5, JavaScript, and jQuery 24-Hour Trainer - Cameron Dane - Страница 5

In order to complete most of the exercises in this book, you will need nothing more than a text editor and the Chrome web browser.

If you have a favorite text editor, you can continue to use it for this book. If you do not have a text editor installed, Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org) is a good option for Windows, Text Wrangler (http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler) is a good choice for Macs, and EMacs is a good choice for Linux. You may also choose to use an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) such as Eclipse.

The Chrome web browser has been chosen for this book not so much for the capabilities of the browser itself, but for the developer tools that accompany it. You can choose to use an alternative web browser if you wish, but the examples will focus on Chrome.

The Chrome web browser is subject to frequent updates, and it is assumed that you will use the latest version of the browser.

In later sections of this book, you will also need a web server. A lesson is provided to guide you through the process of installing and configuring a web server.
