Oracle APEX 20 Full Stack Set For Beginners

Book excerpt: A three-book set for absolute beginners who want to become dynamic web developers This three-book set combines the titles No-Code Oracle APEX For Thirteen To Ninety, SQL and PL/SQL For Everyone, and Oracle APEX 20 For Beginners. Together these three books will provide a solid foundation to anyone who has the desire to develop dynamic data-driven web applications quickly with no/low code features of Oracle APEX. Oracle APEX is a low-code application development framework. Low-code is a software development approach that enables the delivery of applications faster and with minimal hand-coding. Low-code framework helps you create complete applications visually with the help of drag-and-drop interface and wizards. Rather than writing thousands of lines of complex code and syntax, low-code platforms allow you to build complete applications with modern user interfaces, integrations, data and logic quickly and visually. Oracle APEX is one such area. You can use Oracle APEX free of charge - either as part of an existing Oracle Database license or running in the free Oracle Database 18c XE product. Oracle APEX empowers you to build incredible apps and solve real problems. And you won't need to become an expert in a vast array of web technologies, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript and more. Oracle APEX is capable to do the heavy lifting for you. You just need to focus on the problem to be solved. The book No-Code Oracle APEX For Thirteen To Ninety - Build Your First Web App without Writing a Single Line of Code is for anyone who wants to become a web developer but is scared of writing tons of code and is looking for the easiest track to start with. I compiled this book for everyone (especially teens) to make web application development fun for them rather than a nightmare. The SQL and PL/SQL languages are too voluminous and exposure of every aspect of these huge languages is a very tedious task. Keeping aside the least utilized features, the book SQL and PL/SQL For Everyone is rolled out to focus on the more operational areas of the language. It is meant to help you learn SQL and PL/SQL quickly by yourself. It follows a tutorial approach wherein hundreds of hands-on exercises are provided, augmented with illustrations, to teach you SQL and PL/SQL in a short period of time. Oracle APEX 20 For Beginners is my eleventh book on Oracle Application Express (APEX) written for the latest version. Just like my previous books that exposed the technology to thousands around the globe, this next-level book is also aimed at beginners who wish to learn from self-paced professional guidance and need a solid foundation in Oracle APEX.
