NB! 6. veebruari praktikumides juhendamist veel - tõenäoliselt - ei toimu: esialgu on soovitav teha baas-htmli abil valmis üleslaadimis/otsivormid ja tulemuste listi näiteleht, alustada võib staatilise css-i lisamisega. Esimene css ja javascripti loeng on 12. veebruaril, peale seda algab praktikumide juhendamine.

Goals

The goal of the course is studying/practicing ideas, methods and technology for building UI-s for web-based apps. We will focus on applications handling data, not marketing/information pages. Creating the actual app, database schema, security and authentication solutions etc etc are not in the scope of the course.

The three themes of the course (with roughly equal importance) are:

• Nontechnical aspects of the UI design: usability, etc
• Browser technologies: html, css, javascript
• Server technologies: xml, xslt

We assume familiarity with html and basic server-side functionality: i.e. competence to create simple web apps.

Labs

There will be two labs with the itv0030 2007 lab common theme:

• First lab: building the functioning prototype/fake UI using static files for the app.
  • Deadline: 20 March.
  • You must follow the itv0030 2007 lab 1 requirements
• Second lab: actually building the app, using web services provided by the lecturer and the UI prototype you built before.
  • Deadline is mid-May.
  • You must follow the itv0030 2007 lab 2 requirements

Labwork may be done alone or in pairs. Groups of three, etc are not allowed. Each lab will be graded, and the grade will be worth 1/3 of the final grade. In order to succeed at the course, both labs plus the final test must be presented/passed. Lab presentations after the deadline will be worth 1/2 of the grade it would receive otherwise. All lab results must be presented on site during regular lab hours, both authors must be present. Email submissions are not accepted.
