Mac Dev Setup

Personally curated and highly opinionated list of applications, software, tools and other stuff for macOS with instructions on how to install them.

I recommend spending some time exploring each app and carefully examine if they actually fit your needs. Downloading software you don't need unecessarily bloats your Mac with wasted space. If you already know what you need, use the index to quickly traverse this document.

How to combine the Flux pattern with large hierarchical data

How to combine the Flux pattern with large hierarchical data

I've been converting the web client part of an application I'm developing for a client from plain old JavaScript to React and Flux. (Because this is closed-source client work, I will be a bit vague about what the application is and does.)

Something about my data, my use case, and how I've implemented things, or some combination of those three, doesn't fit the Flux pattern well. So I am writing this to explain my problem and hopefully get some interesting feedback on it. (If you're reading this: thanks.)

The application

I have a Python server which talks to a PostgreSQL database and provides data in JSON format over a REST-ish API (not pure REST, more RPC-style).

Thoughts on where to do async data loading in Flux

Async data loading in Flux

I've been working with Flux a lot recently, and one of the questions I've been struggling with is in which part of the Flux cycle to put my asynchronous data requests.

Here are some different opinions:

The famous Flux diagram puts them in the action creators.

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Since modern.ie released vagrant boxes, it' no longer necessary to manually import the ova file to virtualbox, as mentioned here.

However, the guys at modern.ie didn't configured the box to work with WinRM. This how-to addresses that, presenting steps to proper repackage these boxes, adding WinRM support. Additionally configures chocolatey package manager and puppet provisioner.

CSS 開發規範與心法整理

CSS 命名 / 架構規範上的幾個大方向

參考: OOCSS, SMACSS, BEM, AMCSS, SUITCSS, ACSS

  1. 分類 (smacss) base - 基本元件, like, a, b, img, 最基礎的屬性, 可能在任何場合被使用 layout - 整個網站的大架構 module - 功能性元件, 比方說選單 state - 狀態指示, 像是 打開 / 關上 / 等待中
