1. Learn in public

If there's a golden rule, it's this one, so I put it first. All the other rules are more or less elaborations of this rule #1.

You already know that you will never be done learning. But most people "learn in private", and lurk. They consume content without creating any themselves. Again, that's fine, but we're here to talk about being in the top quintile. What you do here is to have a habit of creating learning exhaust. Write blogs and tutorials and cheatsheets. Speak at meetups and conferences. Ask and answer things on Stackoverflow or Reddit. (Avoid the walled gardens like Slack and Discourse, they're not public). Make Youtube videos

let username = 'john';
let password = 'doe';
let url = `https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/${username}/${password}`
let authString = `${username}:${password}`
let headers = new Headers();
headers.set('Authorization', 'Basic ' + btoa(authString))
fetch(url,{method: 'GET', headers: headers})
    .then(function (response) {
 console.log (response)

A quick cheatsheet of useful snippet for Flutter

Widget

A widget is the basic type of controller in Flutter Material. There are two type of basic Widget we can extend our classes: StatefulWidget or StatelessWidget.

Stateful

StatefulWidget are all the widget that interally have a dynamic value that can change during usage. It can receive an input value in the constructor or reference to functions. You need to create two classes like:

Hi Nicholas,

I saw you tweet about JSX yesterday. It seemed like the discussion devolved pretty quickly but I wanted to share our experience over the last year. I understand your concerns. I've made similar remarks about JSX. When we started using it Planning Center, I led the charge to write React without it. I don't imagine I'd have much to say that you haven't considered but, if it's helpful, here's a pattern that changed my opinion:

The idea that "React is the V in MVC" is disingenuous. It's a good pitch but, for many of us, it feels like in invitation to repeat our history of coupled views. In practice, React is the V and the C. Dan Abramov describes the division as Smart and Dumb Components. At our office, we call them stateless and container components (view-controllers if we're Flux). The idea is pretty simple: components can't

##Setup your server (this would ideally be done with automated provisioning)

add a deploy user with password-less ssh see this gist
install forever npm install -g forever

##Install flightplan

npm install -g flightplan
in your project folder npm install flightplan --save-dev
create a flightplan.js file

Sans jQuery

Events

// jQuery
$(document).ready(function() {
  // code
})

	// One of my new favorite React Hook patternms is to create handler
	// functions for a custom hook using `React.useMemo` instead of
	// `React.useCallback`, like so:

	function useBool(initialState = false) {
	const [state, setState] = React.useState(initialState)

	// Instead of individual React.useCallbacks gathered into an object
	// Let's memoize the whole object. Then, we can destructure the
	// methods we need in our consuming component.
