JavaScript SPA: Working With Validation

Course details

A JavaScript single page application, or SPA, uses a combination of JavaScript libraries and web development frameworks to communicate with the server, consume and manage data, and to display application views on screen. A SPA serves up a single HTML page in which all of the application views are rendered on the client, and data that is retrieved from the server can be cached and efficiently managed on the client. In this course, you will learn how to implement custom data validation rules on the client and server, how to use Breeze validation, how to gather Breeze entity errors, how to parse Breeze entity error messages on the client, and how to display validation errors to the user in a JavaScript SPA in Visual Studio 2013.
