Essential JavaScript Links

I no longer mantain this list. There are lots of other very comprehensive JavaScript link lists out there. Please see those, instead (Google "awesome JavaScript" for a start).

O-I

One of the many reasons I love working with Ruby is it has a rich vocabulary that allows you to accomplish your goals with a minimal amount of code. If there isn't a method that does exactly what you want, it's usually possible to build an elegant solution yourself.

Let's take the example of simulating the rolling of a die.

We can represent a die as an array of its faces.

die = [*?⚀..?⚅]
# => ["⚀", "⚁", "⚂", "⚃", "⚄", "⚅"]

// Promise.all is good for executing many promises at once
Promise.all([
  promise1,
  promise2
]);

// Promise.resolve is good for wrapping synchronous code
Promise.resolve().then(function () {
  if (somethingIsNotRight()) {
    throw new Error("I will be rejected asynchronously!");

When should you use DateTime and when should you use Time?

It's a common misconception that [William Shakespeare][1] and [Miguel de Cervantes][2] died on the same day in history - so much so that UNESCO named April 23 as [World Book Day because of this fact][3]. However because England hadn't yet adopted [Gregorian Calendar Reform][4] (and wouldn't until [1752][5]) their deaths are actually 10 days apart. Since Ruby's Time class implements a [proleptic Gregorian calendar][6] and has no concept of calendar reform then there's no way to express this. This is where DateTime steps in:

>> shakespeare = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ENGLAND)
=> Tue, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000
>> cervantes = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ITALY)
=> Sat, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000

Styling Components in React Toolbox 2

I wrote react-toolbox and presented it almost a year ago in lighning talk at Reactive Conf 2015 in Bratislava. At first it was just a proof of concept of a component library styled with CSS Modules and SASS. Now the project has grown quite a bit, and during this year there has been tons of changes and lessons learned.

Theming and customization is one of the most difficult and interesting problems to solve. For the first version we needed a custom Webpack loader to generate themes and doing simple style overrides was very painful. Today I'm working on a new playground that will allow you try CSS Modules live, and to create React Toolbox themes on the f
