JXA Resources

Revised: 2019-11-28 16:16 GMT-6

This is a list of the key resources I have found useful. If you know of others, please post in a comment below, and I will add to this list.

I have tried to order this list in the order that, to me, is best for learning JXA from scratch. We all learn a bit diferently, so adjust to suit your style/needs. Please post if you have suggestions on learning JXA.

Verifiable brute force strength

Below are table of various projects that can completely exhaust n-bits of keyspace. In other words, counting completely and fully from 0 to 2ⁿ-1.

This Gist implies no discussion about how this is relevant to quantum computing using Grover's algorithm, meet-in-the-middle or birthday attacks, or anything of the like. It's strictly a Gist about raw speed, measuring the result in bits.

If you know of other noteworthy and verifiable brute force searching projects,

macOS Internals

Understand your Mac and iPhone more deeply by tracing the evolution of Mac OS X from prelease to Swift. John Siracusa delivers the details.

How to use this gist

You've got two main options:

	public class DigitoControl {
	private static final int[][] magic = {
	{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9},
	{0, 3, 8, 2, 7, 4, 1, 5, 9, 6},
	{0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
	};

	public static int calc(int test) {
	byte[] bytes = String.format("%05d", test).getBytes();

	const app = Application("System Preferences")
	const pane = app.panes.byId("com.apple.preference.notifications").anchors.byName("Focus")
	app.reveal(pane) // Open the preference pane

	// Useful way of inspecting the UI hierarchy of an open app:
