Summary

If your front-end experience is desktop-oriented and you want to move your skills quickly to phones and tablets, this book offers a relatively low-effort path. It divides jQuery Mobile into four stages—essential foundations, core components, advanced capabilities, and complete projects—with a gentle learning curve: first filling in basic concepts of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the mobile Web, then working through components one by one (navigation, dialogs, toolbars, buttons, forms, lists), and finally polishing pages with thematic design, the API, and plugins. Noteworthy are the two integrated case studies—the phone book management system and the tablet reader system. Though brief, they cover common scenarios such as data organization, page transitions, and list rendering; typing them out builds a more coherent overall understanding than reading scattered documentation. The companion CD with synchronized instructional videos is friendly to self-learners. One caveat: the book is based on jQuery Mobile 1.x-era practices, and the framework is now in maintenance status, so treat it as an introduction to ideas like markup-driven UI, progressive enhancement, and responsive layout rather than a choice for keeping up with new technology.

Editor's review

如果你的前端经验停留在桌面端，想快速把技能迁移到手机和平板上，这本书是一条比较省力的路径。它把 jQuery Mobile 拆成“必备基础—核心组件—进阶能力—完整项目”四段，学习曲线平缓：先补 HTML、CSS、JavaScript 与移动 Web 的基本概念，再按导航、对话框、工具栏、按钮、表单、列表逐个吃透组件，最后用主题化、API 与插件把页面打磨成形。值得一提的是两个综合作战案例——“电话本管理系统”和“平板阅读器系统”，篇幅不长却覆盖了数据组织、页面跳转、列表渲染等常见场景，跟着敲一遍，比零散读文档更能建立整体感。随书光盘附有同步教学录像，对自学者比较友好。需要提醒：本书基于 jQuery Mobile 1.x 时代的写法，框架本身如今已进入维护状态，因此请把它当作理解“标记驱动 UI、渐进式增强、响应式布局”这些思路的入门读物，而不是追新技术的选择。

Who it's for

A good fit for

零基础、想系统入门移动 Web 与 jQuery Mobile 的自学者
有桌面端 HTML/CSS 基础、希望补移动端开发技能的前端新手
需要一本配有视频与案例、可跟做的实训教材的在校学生
开设网页设计、Web 前端课程的院校教师与培训机构讲师

Not a good fit for

追求 React、Vue 等现代框架与最新工程化方案的开发者
已熟练使用 jQuery Mobile、想深入源码与性能优化的高级读者

Reading tips

先通读第0章的学习路线图，明确自己需要补哪块基础，再决定是否跳过第2章。
核心组件章节建议边读边在本地搭好多页面示例，动手改写导航、列表和表单部分。
综合实战章节不要只抄代码，先自行设计数据结构与页面流程，再对照书中实现修正。
阅读时留意命令与属性写法对应的框架版本，遇到与当前文档不一致处以实践结果为准。

FAQ

这本书适合完全没有编程基础的人吗？

书中定位为“零基础讲解”，但第2章只对 HTML、CSS、JavaScript 作了速览式介绍。完全没有编程经验者最好先补一段基础语法与网页结构知识，再进入 jQuery Mobile 主体章节。

书里的技术现在还不过时吗？

jQuery Mobile 目前已进入维护状态，不再是新项目的主流选择。书中内容更适合用来理解标记驱动的移动 UI 与响应式思路，而非作为当前生产项目的技术方案。

随书光盘里有什么内容？

据出版信息，光盘包含与图书章节同步的教学录像，并附赠考试认证、求职面试题库以及开发文档等扩展学习资料，具体以实际光盘为准。

这本书和同名的其他版本有什么区别？

市面上还有未来科技编著、中国水利水电出版社出版的同名书，结构为4部分19章，案例为企业宣传、记事本、博客等。本书为巅峰卓越编著、人民邮电出版社版本，ISBN 为 978-7-115-41574-5，购买时请核对作者与书号。

About the author

巅峰卓越 Author

Publicly available information about the author writing under the name "Dianfeng Zhuoyue" (literally "Peak Excellence") is quite limited; details such as nationality and life history are not confirmed. Judging from the two works held in the library, Android from Beginner to Mastery and jQuery Mobile from Beginner to Mastery, this byline is mainly active in writing practical technical books on programming and design, with topics centered on mobile development. The two titles cover two common technical routes: native Android app development and cross-platform mobile page development based on jQuery Mobile. Both books adopt a "from beginner to mastery" approach aimed at newcomers and self-taught readers, emphasizing a step-by-step presentation of fundamentals, development environment setup, and hands-on essentials to help readers gradually master the relevant frameworks and tools. Their style follows the format of technical tutorials, stressing progressive conceptual structure and the use of examples so that readers can learn while practicing. On the basis of the available material, it is difficult to determine the author's personal background or further writing activities; readers may regard these works as introductory technical study materials.
