I’m excited to announce the Ext JS 3.0 Cookbook, a book I wrote for Packt Publishing
over the last several months.
Ext JS 3.0 Cookbook is packed with step-by-step recipes
for building rich internet applications using the Ext JS JavaScript library. Each
recipe is a carefully organized sequence of instructions to complete a task as efficiently
as possible.
The Ext JS 3.0 Cookbook is for developers who want a book of useful techniques,
with explanations, that they can refer to and adapt to their purposes.
Developers who are already familiar with Ext JS will find practical guidance and
numerous examples covering most of the library's features and components, that can
be used as a solid foundation to build upon when creating rich internet applications.
