Luciano Mammino

Luciano Mammino is a software engineer born in 1987, the same year that the Nintendo released Super Mario Bros in Europe, which by chance is his favorite video-game. He started coding at the age of 12 using his father's old Intel 386, provided only with the DOS operating system and the qBasic interpreter. After a master's degree in computer science he developed his programming skills mostly as a web developer working mainly as freelancer for companies and startups all around Italy. After a start-up parenthesis of 3 years as CTO and co-founder of Sbaam.com in Italy and in Ireland, he decided to relocate in Dublin to work as senior PHP engineer at Smartbox. He loves developing open source libraries and working with frameworks such as Symfony and Express. He is convinced that the JavaScript fame is still at the very beginning and that this technology will have a huge impact in the future of most of the web-and mobile-related technologies. For this reason, he spends most of his free time improving his knowledge of JavaScript and playing with Node.js.

Creating a Universal JavaScript app

Now that we've covered the basics, let's start to build a more complete Universal JavaScript application. We are going to build a simple "book library" application where we can list different authors and see their biography and some of their masterpieces. Although this is going to be a very simple application, it will allow us to cover more advanced topics such as universal routing, universal rendering, and universal data fetching. The idea is that you can later use this application as a scaffold for a real project and build on top of it your next universal JavaScript application.

In this experiment, we are going to use the following technologies:
