Promise protips - stuff I wish I had known when I started with Promises
// 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!");

A few JavaScript quines
// Today, I noticed that someone favorited this tweet of mine from 2012:
// https://twitter.com/cowboy/status/232587756486938624
// !function $(){console.log('!'+$+'()')}() #quine
// So I fooled around for a little bit:
// Shortest JavaScript quine?
(function _(){return'('+_+')()'})()
// Have fun with this one!

2015-01-29 Unofficial Relay FAQ

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.

Disclaimer: I work on Relay at Facebook. Relay is a complex system on which we're iterating aggressively. I'll do my best here to provide accurate, useful answers, but the details are subject to change. I may also be wrong. Feedback and additional questions are welcome.

What is Relay?

Relay is a new framework from Facebook that provides data-fetching functionality for React applications. It was announced at React.js Conf (January 2015).

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.

Auto-deploying built products to gh-pages with Travis

Auto-deploying built products to gh-pages with GitHub Actions

This is a set up for projects which want to check in only their source files, but have their gh-pages branch automatically updated with some compiled output every time they push.

A file below this one contains the steps for doing this with Travis CI. However, these days I recommend GitHub Actions, for the following reasons:

  • It is much easier and requires less steps, because you are already authenticated with GitHub, so you don't need to share secret keys across services like you do when coordinate Travis CI and GitHub.
  • It is free, with no quotas.
  • Anecdotally, builds are much faster with GitHub Actions than with Travis CI, especially in terms of time spent waiting for a builder.

React JSX - Lower Case

Lower Case JSX Convention

All lower case JSX tags will now be treated as HTML/SVG elements. They will no longer be treated as custom components in scope.

The React element produced by JSX can be either a React class that exists in the local scope or a global scope HTML/SVG element depending on a convention.

Previous Behavior

Currently, when you use React JSX to define a HTML element you can use any known HTML tag. E.g:
