Experiences with a Single-Page Application for Learning Programming

Abstract

In recent years, the need for programming has increased. Self-study in programing is important for mastering it. However, many sites for learning programming only support personal computers. JavaScript Development Environment (JDE) was developed in our previous research. JDE is a single-page application that allows a user to learn programming on a smartphone. It imposes a small load on the server, thus many people can use it at the same time. Because it does not use a computer, it can be used in a classroom. Furthermore, JDE is suitable for distance learning (or e-learning). The number of remote classes has increased in Japan in 2020, as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. In this paper, we introduce an example of distance learning using JDE and verify the effectiveness of JDE.

Web-Based Human-Machine Interfaces of Industrial Controllers in Single-Page Applications

“…e SPA design pattern was proposed as a solution to these problems. e shift from multipage to single-page design did not merely reduce multiple pages to a single page but provided users with an experience akin to desktop applications by moving the user interface (UI) from the server side to the client side and implementing application logic on the client side [9,10].…”
