JavaScript allows for metaprogramming through manipulating programs as data. It relies on few but powerful constructs including working with functions, arguments, built-in types, and mechanisms like inheritance at runtime. The key building blocks are objects, numbers, strings, booleans, and undefined, with everything else being objects. Functions are objects that can return other functions, taking advantage of closures to refer to outer variables from inner functions. This flexibility allows for patching implementations, self-optimizing code, custom APIs, and domain-specific languages.
This document discusses the speaker's involvement with the jQuery open source project. It provides background on jQuery, describing it as a JavaScript library that simplifies DOM manipulation. It then outlines the speaker's various roles contributing to jQuery, including core bug triage, API documentation, and evangelism. Challenges of contributing to open source projects from work and managing time zones are discussed. Overall, the document encourages getting involved in open source and notes that significant contributions can be made even without large time commitments.
Paris Web - Javascript as a programming languageMarco Cedaro
How to setup up a stable javascript continuous integration environment and why you need it. Through a real life example, the talk explains all the benefits of having a development process that brings real control over javascript codebase. A deep analysis of developer and webapps needs and of the tools that fit those requirements.
Metaprogramming involves writing computer programs that manipulate or generate other programs. It allows for more elegant code, less boilerplate code, and hiding implementation details. The document discusses different ways metaprogramming is implemented in JavaScript, including dynamic features like reflection, getters/setters, proxies, decorators, and generators, as well as code generation approaches. Real-world examples of metaprogramming include frameworks, domain-specific languages, and adding functionality without cluttering main logic.
The document discusses techniques for improving the performance of mobile web apps. It covers optimizing DOM manipulation, event handling, network usage, and memory management. Some key recommendations include efficiently navigating and updating the DOM, using event delegation, throttling and debouncing events, leveraging built-in JavaScript methods, and preventing memory leaks by properly removing event listeners and DOM elements no longer in use. The document also promotes using CSS3 features like transforms, transitions, animations, and media queries instead of JavaScript for visual effects whenever possible.
5 Reasons Why Your Website Is[n’t] a Native App (PrDC 2015)David Wesst
“We need a mobile app. Make our website into a mobile app.” The request seems reasonable, doesn’t it? Your website is JavaScript, native apps are JavaScript, why wouldn’t you make your website into an application? In this presentation we’ll give you 5 reasons why your website shouldn’t end up as a native application to give you the tools you need to not only turn down the request, but on how to make a better solution.
HTML5: The Parts You Care About - 4/Nov/13 - PrDC Saskatoon, SKDavid Wesst
The document is a presentation about HTML5 that discusses its evolution and components. It defines HTML5 as using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to update web standards for how the world currently uses the web. It outlines the main parts of HTML5 like new elements, tools for defining pages with HTML, styling with CSS compilers and frameworks, and interacting with JavaScript libraries, compilers, and APIs. It provides examples of using new HTML5 features and recommends further resources to learn more.
This document discusses strategies for modernizing front-end codebases in an incremental way. It suggests starting with basic modularization by splitting code into logical chunks, then concatenating and minifying modules. Next steps include loading modules on demand using various module systems. Graceful deprecation is recommended over breaking changes. The document also advocates trying new frameworks on side projects first before adopting one. Maintaining good development practices like testing, linting, code style rules and performance testing is emphasized over choosing any particular framework.
Building Rich User Experiences Without JavaScript SpaghettiJared Faris
Jared Faris discusses how to build rich user experiences without messy JavaScript code. He advocates for decoupling JavaScript objects, writing small discrete chunks of code, and pushing events rather than state between objects. This avoids JavaScript spaghetti and promotes loose coupling between components. Design patterns like Mediator and Observer are useful, as are tools like Knockout and Backbone that help manage state, routing, and views. Testing discrete layers without HTML elements also helps produce clean, modular code.
Rich and Beautiful: Making Attractive Apps in HTML5 [Wpg 2013]David Wesst
End-users are shallow and vein when it comes to applications. Whether you are selling apps in the marketplace, or trying to engage business users, without a sexy user experience, it can be hard to get people interested. HTML5, although very practical and functional as a platform, can do wonders when it comes to making sexy software. In this session, we will take a deeper dive into the HTML5 tools that can make your application a looker and really look good. We will learn how to take a regular HTML5 application and turn it into a rich user experience that stands out in the crown in HTML5 application using features like SVG, Canvas, and Audio/Video.
This document provides an introduction to React including:
- React is a UI library that uses a component-based architecture and focuses on rendering views. It is not an MVC framework.
- React uses a virtual DOM for efficient updates rather than directly manipulating the real DOM. This improves performance.
- React components are self-contained pieces of code that receive data and return rendered output. An application is made of composable components.
- JavaScript knowledge is fundamental for React as components are written in JSX which compiles to JavaScript.
The document discusses lessons learned from examining popular jQuery plugins. It summarizes 30 top plugins, describing why each was created and how it grew. Key takeaways are that authors build plugins to make something better, for fun/exploration, or client needs. Managing features and user feedback is challenging. The best plugins have great demos, documentation, browser support testing, and are fun. The author is available for questions.
The document summarizes the keynote presentation at the 2012 jQuery Conference about recent and upcoming developments with jQuery.
The presentation discussed:
1) The role of the jQuery Foundation in supporting the jQuery project and community.
2) Recent releases of jQuery Core, including version 1.8 which focused on modularity, performance improvements, and deprecating unused code.
3) Plans for upcoming major releases, with jQuery 1.9 continuing to clean up APIs and jQuery 2.0 removing support for older browsers to simplify the codebase.
This document discusses how to build rich user experiences with JavaScript without creating "spaghetti code". It advocates for pushing events rather than state between components, writing small discrete bits of code, and fully decoupling components. Specific techniques mentioned include using design patterns like mediator and observer, frameworks like Knockout and Backbone, namespacing, inheritance, and testing isolated layers. The goal is to structure JavaScript applications similarly to server-side code by treating the client-side seriously and applying best practices around modularity and loose coupling.
This document provides an overview of various front-end frameworks and tools. It discusses HTML templating languages like HAML and templating engines like Handlebars. It also covers CSS preprocessors like SASS and LESS. JavaScript libraries and frameworks covered include jQuery, Backbone, Spine and CoffeeScript. Boilerplates like HTML5 Boilerplate and frameworks like Twitter Bootstrap and Zurb Foundation are also summarized. The document encourages trying new tools but not feeling overwhelmed by the many options and focusing on those most helpful.
This document provides an agenda and overview for a developer training session. It discusses developing a growth mindset for programming, strategies for managing frustration, resources for learning programming concepts and getting help, and approaches for collaborative work. It also introduces backend concepts like servers, databases, and JavaScript on the server side using Node.js. The homework assignment involves researching and documenting programming resources.
Everyones invited! Meet accesibility requirements with ColdFusionColdFusionConference
ColdFusion Summit 2016 was announced as an event for everyone except Chad, who was not invited due to prior actions. The document then discussed accessibility requirements and how to meet them using ColdFusion. It noted the importance of compliance and ensuring software is available to all. Examples were given of inaccessible software like Dwarf Fortress and how ARIA attributes can help. The challenges of getting developers to comply were addressed by discussing how one company created their own Markup Language (MCML) of custom tags to enforce standards and ensure 508 compliance. They achieved full compliance over time through this framework and using interns to update code. Testing and responsibilities were also emphasized.
React JS Belgium Touch Base - React, Flux, React NativePhilos.io
This document provides an introduction to ReactJS, including:
- ReactJS is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces using components and a virtual DOM. It implements unidirectional data flow.
- Components are used to build up user interfaces and can receive data via props. The virtual DOM allows for efficient updates before rendering to the real DOM.
- Flux is an architecture used with React for unidirectional data flow between actions, stores, and React components.
- React Native allows building native mobile apps using React by rendering natively on each platform rather than with HTML and CSS.
Javascript is actually called ECMAScript. The document provides an overview of JavaScript including how it interacts with the DOM in the browser, using JavaScript in web pages, syntax, control structures like loops and conditionals, objects as hashes, functions as first-class objects, loose typing, closures, prototypes, JSON, cross-domain AJAX, libraries like jQuery, and resources for learning more. The global scope in JavaScript is discussed and the importance of using var is emphasized to avoid polluting the global namespace.
At Phase2, we do things a little differently when it comes to design. While many teams are stuck in the “design first, develop second, theme last” way of doing things, we link our multidisciplinary teams together by a common vehicle: design systems. Each piece of the system, including our prototyping tools, live within the platform, allowing us to integrate processes like creative design, prototyping, front-end methodology, and implementation. We call this “The New Design Workflow.”
This session will feature a panel of Phase2’s most experienced designers and front-end devs for an inside look at our best practices, tips and tricks. Plus, hear us weigh in how Drupal 8 will interface with your favorite front-end tools like PatternLab.
JavaScript has a well deserved reputation of be hard to write and debug. Put it on a mobile device and the problems increase exponentially. Mobile browsers lack all of the niceties that developers rely on to do testing and debugging including the most fundamental tool, the debugger. But it is possible to write quality JavaScript on a mobile device without relying on blind luck. In this talk I will show all of the tools and tricks that I learned in my 12 month development of the new KBB.com mobile site.
There are lots of libraries and frameworks you can use when building browser based JavaScript applications. Probably the most popular library is jQuery. But while jQuery makes it easy to write cross browser user interface code that manipulates the DOM it’s UI focus makes it less then perfect for large business applications. One of the JavaScript based MVC frameworks that has been gaining a lot of popularity for creating business applications is AngularJS. Wen using AngularJS you get the benefit of a powerful data-binding framework that guides you towards a proper application model with a proper separation between the UI layer and the business layer. It also contains a powerful dependency injection framework making code much more testable than before.
In this session Maurice de Beijer will show you how to get started with AngularJS and how productive you can be when creating line of business applications.
This document provides an agenda for a class on making web pages look better with CSS. It discusses upcoming homework issues and presentations. It introduces flexbox, Bootstrap, and UI-Kit for layouts. It also outlines Project 2, which involves building the front-end for a business idea using a framework like Bootstrap or UI-Kit. Students will present a mockup by November 9th and the full project is due on the last day of class.
The document discusses the state of JavaScript and opportunities for its responsible use. It encourages learning JavaScript properly rather than copying code without understanding. It argues against workarounds for browser issues and urges focusing on standards compliance. Updating tools and libraries, removing legacy code, and embracing modern JavaScript features like those in ES6 can help address past issues and enable further innovation on the web.
The vertical raw mill uses compression, shear and impact forces for grinding raw materials into powder. Materials are fed into the center of a grinding plate and distributed under rolling pressure from grinding rollers. Grinding creates friction that breaks down materials into a fine powder. Ground material is transported to a separator by gas flow where coarse particles fall back to regrinding. Process parameters like grinding pressure, material layer thickness and temperature are controlled to maintain operation. Vibrations are monitored and addressed if excessive. The mill can experience issues like uneven feeding or metal contamination that require corrective measures.
The document provides tips and guidelines for designing effective presentations. It discusses using less text on slides to engage the audience, employing visual hierarchy through size, color and placement, and organizing information in clear categories or chronologically. Color should be used carefully as it can have cultural meanings. Data should be shown truthfully and simply, picking the right visual aid like bar charts or flowcharts for the information. Overall the document emphasizes clarity, brevity and visual appeal in slide design.

Biopsy is the removal of tissue from the living body for diagnostic purposes. It has a long history dating back to the 16th century. There are various biopsy techniques depending on the location and size of the lesion. The goal is to provide a representative tissue sample while minimizing patient discomfort. Common techniques include incisional, excisional, punch and needle biopsies. Indications are to confirm clinical impressions, determine treatment plans, and assess malignancy. Contraindications include certain vascular or pigmented lesions.
This document discusses chest x-ray interpretation and provides guidance on evaluating x-rays. It explains that tissue density determines how an x-ray beam penetrates, with denser tissues appearing whiter and less dense tissues appearing blacker. It also outlines different chest x-ray views and factors to consider like patient orientation, age, gender, and rotation. Abnormalities are described as appearing too white, too black, too large, or in the wrong place. The document stresses a systematic approach of identifying, localizing, describing lesions, and providing differential diagnoses.

Sass Code Reviews - How one code review changed my life #SassConf2015Stacy Kvernmo
After writing CSS for over 10 years you'd think you would know everything there is to know, right? I couldn't be more wrong and I found out the hard way. While my first formal code review session was painfully embarrassing it was also the most important lesson I have learned throughout my career. Code reviews force you to communicate on a different level which ultimately leads to more thoughtful coding practices. When writing Sass and other pre-processed languages it is even more important that you review your code continually, which even the more seasoned front end developers may neglect at times.
Bottom line: Code reviews will make you better.

The document discusses the challenges of the browser environment for JavaScript development and principles of unobtrusive JavaScript. It notes that JavaScript encounters many errors due to the complex browser environment, inconsistent support across browsers, and potential for user scripts to be disabled. The document advocates building sites primarily with HTML and CSS according to standards and using JavaScript to enhance usability instead of as the sole means of interactivity. It provides an example where Google broke its download button for Chrome due to improper unobtrusive JavaScript practices.
This document discusses the features of an event discovery and recommendation website. It uses MapBox maps, suggests events based on contacts and interests, and shows event details pages. Users can track topics by location and the site has a hierarchical place database. It provides rich snippets, GeoRSS feeds, and supports search within areas by indexing the place hierarchy. Events have primary venues to plot on maps and the site integrates with Foursquare.
This document discusses cheap tricks for startups to experiment and deploy features quickly. It recommends using feature flags to control features for different users, deploying to staging environments first, and using read-only mode for low-risk deployments. It also suggests adding created/updated date fields to all tables to easily track site growth over time, and storing daily report calculations in the database to graph metrics over time. The overall message is that these techniques allow for easy, fast, and cheap experimentation, deployment, and analytics.
The Django Web Framework (EuroPython 2006)Simon Willison
The document summarizes the Django web framework. It describes key characteristics like clean URLs, loosely coupled components, and designer-friendly templates. It outlines components like URL dispatching, views, models, templates, forms, validation, administration, internationalization, and success stories. Django allows for really fast development, reuse of components, and less code through its architecture and features.
Lanyrd.com is a definitive database of professional events and speakers that provides social event recommendation and comprehensive speaker profiles. It features a social event recommendation engine, comprehensive speaker profiles that include archives of slides, notes and videos, and a definitive database of professional events and speakers.
How we bootstrapped Lanyrd using Twitter's social graphSimon Willison
This document describes how Lanyrd.com bootstrapped their social event and speaker database site by leveraging Twitter's social graph and APIs. They were able to quickly build profiles for 500 speakers before launching by accessing public Twitter account information. Using Twitter follower data stored in Redis and speaker information indexed by Solr, Lanyrd can provide personalized event recommendations to users. While relying on Twitter introduced some risks, it was an effective way to initially populate the site with user and event data.
Web services and APIs allow large websites like Yahoo to be built and maintained, enable internal innovation through mashups, and allow external developers to build new products and services using publicly available data and functionality. They help address issues like security, scaling, and making changes by separating concerns between interfaces and implementations. Events like d.Construct promote discussion and innovation around emerging technologies like Ajax, APIs, and mobile applications.
Tricks & challenges developing a large Django applicationSimon Willison
The document discusses tricks and challenges for developing large Django applications. It outlines three tricks: 1) Signing data to pass through untrusted sources without tampering; 2) Adding a cache version field to models to invalidate cached queries; 3) Using NoSQL databases like Redis and Solr for denormalizing data to allow flexible queries across entities. Redis sets are used to track relationships like followers and event attendees for recommendations.
Advanced Aspects of the Django Ecosystem: Haystack, Celery & FabricSimon Willison
This document summarizes Haystack, Celery, and Fabric - three tools that are part of the Django ecosystem. Haystack allows for full-text search, Celery handles asynchronous/background tasks, and Fabric automates deployment tasks. The document provides high-level descriptions of each tool's functionality and advantages. It also includes links to documentation and getting started guides.
Lanyrd.com is a website that provides a definitive database of professional events and speakers, enables social recommendations of events, and includes comprehensive speaker profiles with archived materials like slides and videos. It utilizes crowdsourcing and shared contributions from users (a wiki-style model). The site integrates heavily with Twitter to discover event discussions, promote speaker profiles, and provide recommendation features based on a user's Twitter follows. It aims to make professional conferences and networking more effective.
This document summarizes the steps taken to optimize the performance of a website for reviewing parliamentary expenses. Initially, querying for unreviewed pages was causing high CPU usage on the database server. To address this, the count of unreviewed pages was cached in Memcached, reducing CPU usage. Other optimizations included migrating the database to InnoDB, adding a "next" button that redirects to a random unreviewed page, and caching the list of unreviewed page IDs in Memcached for faster random access. During a future scale issue, Redis will be used instead of Memcached. Putting the site in read-only mode also helped during a period of high load.
Building Things Fast - and getting approvalSimon Willison
The document summarizes Simon Willison's talk at An Event Apart Chicago 2009 about building things fast using modern web development techniques and tools. The talk discusses trends in rapid interactive development using client-side JavaScript, web frameworks that facilitate quick prototyping and deployment, and building a Twitter client in under 50 lines of JavaScript code to demonstrate these techniques.
Rediscovering JavaScript: The Language Behind The LibrariesSimon Willison
This document provides a summary of the evolution of JavaScript libraries from 2004 to 2005. It discusses how in 2004, JavaScript was not taken seriously by most developers. A few libraries like Prototype.js emerged in 2005, helping popularize JavaScript for dynamic effects like drag and drop. This led to a flurry of library development in 2005, including early versions of jQuery, MochiKit and YUI. These libraries had different philosophies but helped unlock JavaScript's potential and make it a first-class language for web development.
A talk on my experiences building crowdsourcing applications, both at the Guardian newspaper and for my own personal projects. Presented at Web Directions @media 2010 on June 9th.
Keynote for DjangoCon 2009, presented on the 8th of September 2009. Covers two cowboy projects - WildLifeNearYou.com and MP expenses - and talks about ways of "reigning in the cowboy" and developing in a more sustainable way.
Crowdsourcing involves building a website to allow users to review and annotate MP expense documents. The site was built quickly using Django within a week. It uses models to represent MPs, expenses documents, pages, and user annotations. Unreviewed pages were cached to improve performance when getting a random next page. As usage increased, the database was migrated and caching was added. Over 70,000 pages were reviewed, showing how crowdsourcing can be used for document review at scale.
This document contains Simon Willison's heresies about Django. Some of the heresies discussed include that the {% if %} tags in Django templates suck, that silencing template errors is a bad idea, and that settings.py causes problems. Alternatives proposed include using a smarter {% if %} tag snippet, not silencing errors, and allowing per-application settings instead of one global settings file. The document also advocates for improving testing and documentation in the Django community.
This document discusses class-based views in Django. It covers Django's emphasis on reusability through generic views and a thriving ecosystem of third-party applications. Generic views encapsulate common patterns like listing and editing objects. While powerful, generic views have some limitations like an inability to swap the ORM. The document also discusses making the admin interface more customizable and decoupled from Django through subclassing, as well as implementing fine-grained permissions by overriding methods in ModelAdmin subclasses. Finally, it suggests that any component that follows the request-response pattern could be implemented as a class, including decorators.
This document summarizes Simon Willison's talk on web app security vulnerabilities and lessons learned from past mistakes. It discusses cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities that allow attackers to steal users' cookies or show fake login pages. It also covers SQL injection attacks, cross-site request forgery (CSRF), and how even features like CSS can be exploited. Past incidents like Samy's MySpace worm and the Google UTF-7 hole are examined to illustrate the dangers if vulnerabilities are left unaddressed. The talk emphasizes following best practices like parameterization and CSRF tokens to prevent common exploits.
Keeping your web application secure is an ongoing process - new classes of vulnerabilities are discovered with surprising frequency, and if you don't keep on top of them you could be in for a nasty surprise. This talk will discuss both common and obscure vulnerabilities, with real-world examples of attacks that have worked against high profile sites in the past.

Neural representations have shown the potential to accelerate ray casting in a conventional ray-tracing-based rendering pipeline. We introduce a novel approach called Locally-Subdivided Neural Intersection Function (LSNIF) that replaces bottom-level BVHs used as traditional geometric representations with a neural network. Our method introduces a sparse hash grid encoding scheme incorporating geometry voxelization, a scene-agnostic training data collection, and a tailored loss function. It enables the network to output not only visibility but also hit-point information and material indices. LSNIF can be trained offline for a single object, allowing us to use LSNIF as a replacement for its corresponding BVH. With these designs, the network can handle hit-point queries from any arbitrary viewpoint, supporting all types of rays in the rendering pipeline. We demonstrate that LSNIF can render a variety of scenes, including real-world scenes designed for other path tracers, while achieving a memory footprint reduction of up to 106.2x compared to a compressed BVH.
