Better using Crontab

Here are a few tips to get more out of Cron:

$color: saturate(lighten($color, 2%), 10%);
background: $color
linear-gradient($angle, $color 0%, $color 10%,
mix(black, $color, 5%) 10%, mix(black, $color, 5%) 20%,
mix(black, $color, 12%) 19%, mix(black, $color, 10%) 21%, // Thin line between gradient
mix(black, $color, 10%) 20%, mix(black, $color, 10%) 30%,
mix(black, $color, 17%) 29%, mix(black, $color, 15%) 31%, // Thin line between gradient

10 JavaScript Terms You Should Know

Knowing what the word itself means can help you know the concept it's named for better.

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

Folder Structure

Please note

While this gist has been shared and followed for years, I regret not giving more background. It was originally a gist for the engineering org I was in, not a "general suggestion" for any React app.

Typically I avoid folders altogether. Heck, I even avoid new files. If I can build an app with one 2000 line file I will. New files and folders are a pain.
