Where Code and Content Meet

A practical go-to reference for Web developers programmingcustom software for Web sites
Most advanced Web sites or Web platforms have specificrequirements that go beyond standard functionality; to meet suchrequirements, it's often necessary to develop custom software. Thisis the point where code and content meet, and where this bookbegins. Where Code and Content Meet presents a collection ofreal-world, tried and tested patterns that address content-relatedaspects of custom software development for advanced Web sites orplatforms.
Mined from a series of successful Web projects, the patternsrepresent collected expertise of designers from several softwaredevelopment teams and serve as a practical guide to designing yourown content-related custom components for your Web project. Thepatterns are independent of specific tools and technologies, andfocus on non-functional requirements, with the overall goal ofdefining sustainable software architecture.
* Presents a collection of tried and tested software patternsmined from a series of successful Web projects
