Native equivalents of jQuery functions
Lee Brimelow18 May 2013 | 12:48 amUpdate: many people have asked about browser compatability for the native methods I’ve shown. Here are the links to that information: querySelector/querySelectorAll, classList, getElementsByClassName, createDocumentFragment. If you checked out my last post you’ll know that I have been doing lots of JavaScript coding as of late, both inside and out of Brackets. I have also been doing a series of performance tests (1, 2, 3) between popular jQuery methods and their native DOM equivalents. Yes I know what you’re thinking. Obviously native methods are faster because jQuery has to…

Building Pluggable and Mock Data Adapters for Web and PhoneGap Applications
23 Apr 2013 | 10:01 amThis is not rocket science, but when planning your web or mobile architecture, it is important to make sure your client application is not tightly coupled to a specific data access strategy. The Problem In tightly coupled applications, the presentation logic is intertwined with data access logic (for example, $.ajax() calls), and it leads to some of the problems below: Slows down the development process. Client side developers often have to wait for services to be built. The back and forth between client side and server side development hampers fast iterations. Hard to test. It’s hard… -
Sample App: Storing your Application Data in the Cloud with Parse.com and the JavaScript SDK
19 Apr 2013 | 9:54 amA couple of days ago, I shared a new version of the Employee Directory sample application. By default, the application uses an in-memory data store to provide a “download and run” experience (no need to set up a server or a database). In this post, I’ll show how to replace the in-memory data store with a database hosted on Parse.com. Step 1: Sign Up for Parse.com Go to http://parse.com and sign up for Parse.

Implementing RESTFul Services with Node.js and MongoDB

While Multiple Files Using RequireJS vs. 1 Big One
13 Apr 2013 | 6:53 amA YouTube watcher of my channel regarding my Basics of Require JS Part 1 writes: … main.js is a concatenated and minified version of all the js. Just wondering why do you still need requirejs if you concatenate and minify your js in a single file [via r.js]. Is there an advantage of using requirejs in this instance? Or can you just straight target main.js? I’ve seen 2 clients now who put all of their JavaScript into a single, large file vs. using classes, modules, and packages; traditional computer science concepts that Require does its best to enable in JavaScript.

Responsive Design Tool for Brackets
17 May 2013 | 2:57 amOver the last month or so I have been working on something that is completely different from anything I’ve done before. It all started because I was thinking about how I could create a responsive design tool specifically aimed at developers. Adobe already has an amazing tool for designers called Edge Reflow. You can check out my tutorial if you want to see how that tool works. But for developers, most of the time you are going to want to hand-edit your CSS code and potentially do a wide array of specific tweaks for each media query. So what I’ve built is a responsive design… -

Sharing Designs Using the Creative Cloud
21 Mar 2013 | 9:54 amEver since we released the Creative Cloud, it has been a challenge to help people understand what it is all about. I answered some of the most frequently asked questions in a previous post but one of the areas that I didn’t touch on is the advanced sharing capabilities for Adobe filetypes like Photoshop PSD and Illustrator AI files. In the video above I show an example of sharing a Photoshop PSD file that allows people to toggle on and off individual layers and leave comments on the design. This saves an enormous amount of time for both the designer and the people viewing the files. -
Why I Like TypeScript
13 Mar 2013 | 4:50 pmCheck out the video above to see why I think TypeScript can be a great technology for those coming from an object-oriented language like AS3 or Java. It can really help you to understand today’s JavaScript because it compiles down to human-readable code as opposed to other technologies like Dart. Basically TypeScript allows you to use the JavaScript of tomorrow (ECMAScript 6), today. For those who are looking for a good setup for Mac, I highly recommend the sublime-typescript extension for Sublime Text. It gives you basic error highlighting, compilation, and code highlighting. For those…

Announcing the release of AMQP support with Windows Azure Service Bus
23 May 2013 | 7:42 amFor the past five years, Microsoft has been working with a diverse group of companies to develop the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) standard. The group of 20+ companies consisted of tech vendors, including Red Hat and VMware, and enterprises like JPMorgan Chase and Credit Suisse. The goal has been to build an open, wire-level protocol standard for messaging that enables easy interoperability between different vendor products. Back in October 2012, the OASIS standards organization announced the approval of AMQP 1.0 as an OASIS Standard and, on the same day, we released a preview… -

Priorities, passion and employment
3 May 2013 | 10:59 amThose of us who work for corporations/companies/whatever (read: not self-employed) usually get an allotment of vacation (or ‘PTO’ – personal time off) each year. Most companies have policies that put a cap on the amount of PTO you can carry over year after year. Anything you don’t use, you lose. You’d be an idiot to lose PTO (which is effectively paid days of work). I was an idiot last year. At the end of the year I got the email from HR indicating that I was going to forfeit a lot of vacation if I didn’t use it. The problem? The math didn’t even work out that I… -
Ensuring your Windows store app knows of a language change
26 Mar 2013 | 1:05 pmIn my working with Windows Store apps, I’ve become increasingly fond/aware of the advantages for app localization. There are a lot of resources out there for you to localize your app using a good-better-best approach as well. I’ve previously written about localizing a Windows Store app using some of these methods and what the WinRT platform supports to make this easier in most cases. Now that you’ve localized your app, you may be faced with the question of how you might want to respond to language choice changes by the user. Remember that the Windows Store app model is that it… -
Implement a ‘smart banner’ for your Windows Store app
18 Feb 2013 | 8:25 amAs someone who uses a few iOS devices around the house, I’ve become fond of visiting sites and seeing a little banner that lets me know that a native app is available for the web app I’m using. This concept was introduced in iOS 6 and called “Smart App Banners” in the developer documentation. You may have seen them as well I wanted to provide the same affordance for Windows Store apps and recalled there are already two ways to integrate the web app browsing experience with the native app in the Windows Store: Linking to your app Connect your web site to your Windows Store app High… -

But you are a developer and now you want to see how your app looks on this great device…Here are some tips to get you quickly started.

This means to that you cannot install Visual Studio directly on the Surface RT device. You will need to still ensure that you… -
Using Azure Web Sites to market your Windows App
26 Sep 2012 | 8:39 pmIn some of our internal discussion lists there was some questions about how to host certain content for their application. Most of the discussion came up from apps needing a privacy policy (Rule 4.1 from the Windows Store App Certification Requirements). Some folks had apps they just developed, but no “site” or service they were using. But they needed to host a privacy policy. Lots of thoughts were floated around and I suggested Azure Free Web Sites as an option. I originally suggested it as a simple way you could just have a URL to a privacy policy, but…duh, you could easily…

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devoxxians!
18 Oct 2012 | 4:40 pmYou may remember the post-punk/new wave group from the '70s known as Devo. If so, you probably get the reference in the title of this post. According to Wikipedia, Devo's music and stage show mingle kitsch science fiction themes, deadpan surrealist humor, and mordantly satirical social commentary. The group often had a very geeky appearance, as evidenced by the album cover on the right. There is another group of geeks, known as Devoxxians, that gather every fall in Belgium to attend a Java programming conference named Devoxx. I'm very happy to say that Gerrit Grunwald and I are two of…

Securing Single Page Apps and REST Services
13 May 2013 | 8:06 amThe move towards Single Page Apps and RESTful services open the doors to a much better way of securing web applications. Traditional web applications use browser cookies to identify a user when a request is made to the server. This approach is fundamentally flawed and causes many applications to be vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. When used correctly, RESTful services can avoid this vulnerability altogether. Before we go into the solution, lets recap the problem. HTTP is a stateless protocol. Make a request and get a response. Make another request and get another… -

22 May 2013 | 5:51 amHow are people not understanding this? There are a ton of environments where you will never run into IE8-, such as the ones listed in the article: Windows 8 apps Chrome OS apps Firefox OS apps So why use a jQuery version that supports these browsers in these environments. 2.0 is moreso built for these situations and for web apps that the developers have decided not to support these browsers anyway.

22 May 2013 | 3:04 amBtw, I still it would have been better to release something like “jQuery lite” and “jQuery full”, instead of two different version. Using the 1.x branch feels like using an older version. I know it isn’t, but it feels wrong. I want to use the “newest” version, but I can’t. -

PhoneGap: Saving Arrays in Local Storage
18 May 2013 | 11:31 amOne of a handful of local storage options for PhoneGap applications is the localStorage solution which is actually part of the W3C specs. It provides access to a W3C Storage interface since we are just dealing with HTML5 in PhoneGap.

Flex SkinnableViewStack Component
15 May 2013 | 12:14 amThe SkinnableViewStack is nearly identical to my ViewStack component except that it extends SkinnableContainer, rather than my DeferredContentGroup, to support skins. My use-case for a skinnable version of the ViewStack is when defining views or components that need to have ViewStack-like functionality, but also include chrome (think of a wizard component). One could simply define a SkinnableComponent with a ViewStack as a skin part, but the component user wouldn’t have access to the ViewStack API outside the SkinnableComponent. This SkinnableViewStack implementation replaces the…

Creating a simple AMF client for testing
30 Apr 2013 | 10:22 amA few months back I had to debug an Adobe Flex application that used Adobe Message Format (AMF) for client-server communication. For readers unfamiliar with Adobe’s Flex/Flash stack, AMF is a binary RPC communication protocol, usually powered by Adobe’s BlazeDS technology. The application I was working on used BlazeDS to expose a number of AMF [...] -

Dispatches From the Edge: Automatic Transitions and SC.View Optimizations
1 May 2013 | 12:39 pmVersion 1.10 is shaping up to be a fundamental advancement of SproutCore as the best framework for creating powerful user experiences on the web. We’ve already been doing the best of breed practices for creating dynamic web applications for some time. For example, running in the client, maintaining the application “truth” in code, minimizing touching the DOM and many other practices that keep SproutCore apps as fast as possible. These features allow you to create extremely complex interfaces that update instantly as the user interacts with them. However, while… -
classNameBindings: Dynamic CSS classes made easy
15 Apr 2013 | 11:11 amAs a mature framework, SproutCore is full of little features to make common tasks drop-dead simple – including some hidden gems. I recently added some documentation to the framework (and to the indispensable docs.sproutcore.com) for one of them, and wanted to highlight it here on the blog too. Dynamically adding and removing CSS classes on a view is a common need — for example, to swap background images when a property changes. But there’s no obvious way to do this; I burned my share of time trying to crack it manually, and I’ve watched other devs do the same. The usual… -
SproutCore 1.9.2 Released
11 Apr 2013 | 2:08 amWe are pleased to announce the immediate release of SproutCore 1.9.2. This release contains important fixes to the 1.9 code-base and is fully backwards compatible. We recommend that all users of SproutCore upgrade to this latest version in order to have the best development experience. To upgrade to the latest version, simply run: gem update sproutcore This is a patch release and contains the following bug fixes: Build Tools We’ve softened the build tools dependency requirements from being ultra-pessimistic (i.e. within the minor version) to being just pessimistic (i.e. within… -
Dispatches From the Edge: Super Fast Collections
6 Mar 2013 | 3:45 pmOne of the most advanced changes coming in 1.10 is the formalization of a major enhancement to SproutCore’s collection views. Some of you may have heard of, used or tried to use the SC.CollectionFastPath mixin which gives SproutCore’s collection views, namely SC.ListView and SC.GridView, a massive performance boost. The performance boost comes from pooling the item view objects, pooling item view layers (i.e. elements) and re-positioning layers using layout styles without modifying the DOM tree. By re-using objects and elements, we can increase the speed that our collections… -
Dispatches From the Edge: Invoking “Next”
24 Jan 2013 | 2:21 pmAs the 1.10 release nears completion, I thought I’d better start writing about some of the many improvements now, lest the final release blog post would take me two days to write. A lot of the changes, including today’s topic, were the result of working on big feature additions and discovering that more support was needed closer to the core. Which brings me to the topic of this post: SC.RunLoop.prototype.invokeNext. On the surface, I thought invokeNext worked as is. According to the documentation, a function passed into invokeNext would be run at the beginning of the next…

How to Write a Module in JavaScript – Quick Tip
23 May 2013 | 7:02 amIn this Treehouse Quick Tip, teacher Jim Hoskins will show you how to write a simple JavaScript module. Modules are useful in writing JavaScript, because they allow us to write code that is less likely to interfere with other code on our page. It allows us to selectively expose parts of the code to other programs running on our page. This makes our JavaScript code more resilient and easier to maintain. The post How to Write a Module in JavaScript – Quick Tip appeared first on Treehouse Blog. -

Developing over the YouTube API with JSON
22 May 2013 | 6:30 amThe process to understand API development is generally complicated but should become easier with practice. Social networks like Twitter and YouTube offer XML/RSS/JSON feeds without the requirement of an API key. However, other smaller networking websites like Instagram and Etsy will require developers to sign up for a new API key before allowing them to make requests from the server. In this tutorial I want to demonstrate a really simple HTML/CSS/JS web application building over the YouTube API. This demo will list a number of YouTube channels which you may click and pull out all the latest… -
Creating Vanity URLs in Rails
21 May 2013 | 10:30 amA vanity URL is a search engine optimized (SEO) URL. Instead of having a meaningless URL like http://storeofthefuture.com/products/2015 wouldn’t http://storeofthefuture.com/products/hoverboard be better and more meaningful? It’s fairly straightforward to make URLs nicer in Rails. I’ll walk you through the process. Baby Steps In Rails the models have a method called to_param. This method gets called when you pass a model into a URL helper like: <%= link_to product.name, product %> Or: <%= link_to product.name, product_path(product) %> By default the to_param… -

server-side Curl issue : TocDocument
21 May 2013 | 3:32 amThe draft of my post on emitting Curl from Seaside 3 was "saved" to the bit-bucket ? Ah well ... one aspect of TocDocument class not being in open source and {document-style} proc not being in open source is that the class TocTreeNode is undocumented. In the absence of server-side Curl frameworks this was no doubt understandable. But when I am working in a framework such as server-side Smalltalk ( in this case, Seaside 3 in Pharo Smalltalk ) it is a vexation. Today, with the emphasis on CAEDE, what can the rationale be for keeping this legacy code out of an open-source repository ? At some… -

Android: Implementing Touch Feedback on Views
11 May 2013 | 9:44 amOne of the most commonly overlooked parts of building Android applications is touch feedback. While some views like Buttons have touch feedback built into them, thats not the case when using custom views. The Android Design Guidelines explicitly talk about the UX part of touch feedback and it was also discussed a while back on the Android Design In Action YouTube series: The problem is that there are no clean standard hooks in the Android framework to implement these. The only implementations I have found have been: FrameLayouts have a foreground property that can be used ViewGroups like the… -
Android TextView setTextSize Gotcha
7 May 2013 | 8:01 pmMost developers know about the different ways to specify dimensions of visual elements in Android. While setting dimensions for visual elements is usually done in “device independent pixels”, it is recommended to use “scale independent pixels” (sp) for type. The Android OS provides a setting (under the Display category on stock Android) where users can set the default minimun font size of all applications to small, normal, large or huge, an important accessibility feature for users with poor eyesight. Any text fontSize set in sp’s will scale up or down to respect… -
Standardizing Application End User Licenses
21 Apr 2013 | 11:08 amIf you have installed an application lately chances are that one of the first screens you have run into is an End User License Agreement (EULA). While it may not be as gargantuan as say the iTunes one, most people don’t bother reading it, and just click on the accept. This numbness to the EULA screen has been bothering me lately. Even though I do it, I have very little idea about what I am agreeing to. I make an assumption that its fair hoping that if it goes beyond what it needs to, I would have heard about that on the internet. As an app developer, I also worry from the other side of… -
Quick Video Review: Ubuntu Touch for Android
21 Feb 2013 | 11:38 pmI installed the first installable image of Ubuntu Touch for Android devices today, and it was a little tricky since the install instructions seem to assume an audience already running Ubuntu. Either way, I wanted to do a quick review of it but figured a video might do a better job explaining what I was talking about than trying to write em out. The video is embedded below: The performance of the build isn’t very good but thats expected. I feel the UX is relying a little too heavily on gestures, way too many of them and a lot of “half-gestures” (swipe halfway for action-1 and… -
New to Android? Here are some apps you should try
20 Jan 2013 | 10:15 pmIn the last couple of months, a few of my friends have moved to Android from iPhones. Some of them reached out to me on advice on devices and apps they should install on their new phones. The Android app ecosystem is pretty rich and while there are a bunch of apps that can replicate the functionality of iOS apps, there are a lot more that I find interesting because of how they leverage the unique strengths of the Android platform. I won’t mention the basic apps that I use like Foursquare, Flipboard, GroupMe or the Google apps like Maps and GMail that you can pretty much get on either…

How to Activate an Inactive Goal in Google Analytics

Loading JSON From Rails with jQuery, Avoiding 406 Error
14 Mar 2013 | 10:36 pmFirst of all I should point out that I'm quite new to Rails (and jQuery) and the interactions between it and JQuery, which may be the reason that some of you may consider this a rather basic hint. However whilst working on membermeister.com I've recently had some trouble loading JSON data from our Rails backend. It seemed like a very trivial task at first, all we needed was a GET request that was answered by a format.json response from the Rails controller. Simplified the request looked something like this: $.ajax({ url: "/invoices/" + invoiceid + "/pay", type: "GET" }) However Rails was… -

What Yahoo and Acer can teach Windows 8 app developers
23 May 2013 | 3:55 amRead original post by Ed Bott at ZDNet Microsoft has sold plenty of licenses for Windows 8. Six months after its launch, the company announced that 100 million licenses had been sold, with each one representing an upgrade copy or a PC that had rolled off the assembly line and was ready for sale. A rough extrapolation from current usage share figures collected by NetMarketShare and StatCounter suggests that 60-70 million of those PCs are in use today. But how many people are actually trying out the signature feature of Windows 8, its new apps? And how many are continuing to use those apps on a… -
