What you need for this book

For all the chapters in the book, you will need a modern browser and a text editor to create files. Whichever text editor you choose is up to you, though one with syntax highlighting and some sort of JavaScript lining would help. For exercises in Chapter 5, Editing Map Data and Chapter 9, Mobile Development, you will also need access to a web hosting server to test files written in Java, PHP, or .NET. Finally, for the exercise in Chapter 10, Testing, you will need an up-to-date version of Node.js installed locally on your machine.
