Open Chrome without CORS restriction

For OSX, open Terminal and run:

$ open -a Google\ Chrome --args --disable-web-security For Linux run:

$ google-chrome --disable-web-security

Also if you're trying to access local files for dev purposes like AJAX or JSON, you can use this flag too.

When a beginner asks you "when do I use semi-colons?" would you rather say this?

// what people who say "use semicolons!!" say
class Foo {
  prop = {
  }; // yes

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
  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Pattern Matching

This is a strawman proposal for adding pattern matching to ECMAScript. Pattern matching is useful for matching a value to some structure in a similar way to destructuring. The primary difference between destructuring and pattern matching are the use cases involved - destructuring is useful for binding pieces out of larger structures whereas pattern matching is useful for mapping a value's structure to data or a set of behaviors. In practice this means that destructuring tends to allow many shapes of data and will do its best to bind something out of it, whereas pattern matching will tend to be more conservative.

Additionally, the power of pattern matching is increased substantially when values are allowed to participate in the pattern matching semantics as a matcher as well as a matchee. This proposal includes the notion of a pattern matching protocol - a symbol method that can be implemented by objects that enables developers to use those values in pattern matching. A common scenario w

Reactive 2016 Lightning Talk Proposal: Get Flow

This is a proposal for a lightning talk at the Reactive 2016 conference.

NOTE: If you like this, star ⭐ the Gist - the amount of stars decides whether it makes the cut! You could also Retweet if you want :)

Get Flow

Type checking JavaScript with Flow

JavaScript is a dynamic language, and there's nothing wrong with that. It allows quick iteration and lowers barriers. However, sometimes some compile-time type checking is just what you need to keep your code in line and give yourself the confidence to build bigger and faster. Flow gives the best of both worlds. You can have normal JavaScript but you can also add types where they're helpful, and it adds zero cost at runtime. In this talk I'll show Flow as it applies to a Redux & React codebase.

Lazily Load Code Declaratively in React + Webpack
import React from 'react';
const toPromise = (load) => (new Promise((resolve) => (
load(resolve)
)));
class LazilyLoad extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super(...arguments);

You’ll hear this talk at Elm Europe in June 2017. Massive thanks to @chrisui, @stealthpig, @zsoobhan, @spryle, @dumbNickname and everyone else who helped shape this proposal. You guys are awesome!

 

how frontend microservices
help us stay flexible

Choosing the right technologies when starting a project is super important. It’s almost impossible to change the stack later on. Betting on Elm is therefore a bit risky. Right?

Not anymore! Now we can use frontend microservices to pick the right tool for every job!
