What you need for this book

You should have a web server installed on your system. Apache is recommended but you can use IIS as well. You will also need PHP (version 5.2 or above) for some chapters. You can install all of these in a single go using a software such as Wamp Server or you can install them separately. jQuery (version 1.6 or higher recommended) and jQuery UI libraries (version 1.11.2 recommended) will also be required.

In terms of technical proficiency, this book assumes that you have worked with jQuery and jQuery UI libraries, HTML, CSS, and JSON. This book will take care of the rest.
