Book content
This book is collection of standalone tutorials.
This means that each tutorial contains minimum amount of code needed to explain specific functionality.
This is in contrast to building a single application where each new functionality is added on top of already explained ones.
Each tutorial has minimum amount of supporting text making emphasis on the code example to do the explaining.
How to use this book
This book can be used as an introduction to Sencha Touch framework covering most of the basic core functionalities.
In addition book will be updated with more tutorials covering more specific subjects.
Book is also intended as Just In Time Support so that user can learn what it needs when it needs it.
This is why tutorials are standalone and minimalistic focusing only at one problem at the time.
You should however first go through the main features of Sencha Touch to familiarize yourself with the core concepts.
This can be done by first going through the main chapters as deep as you see fit.
Then later you can come back to explore other more specific chapters as you need them.
