Introduction

An introduction to curl using GitHub's API.

The Basics

How to prune unwanted git branches

Discover unwanted branchs

Switch to the main branch, usually 'develop':
```
 git checkout develop
```

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.

Learning FP the hard way: Experiences on the Elm language

Editorial note

A short list of hurdles to get Electron working more like Node, and how I'm tackling them.

using renderer process.stdin with Buffer seems difficult/impossible
- alternative: send buffered stdin as a string to the renderer
renderer process.argv needs to be require('remote').process.argv
- should be patched in preload script to ensure your Node dependencies work correctly
syntax errors in <script src="index.js"> do not print to terminal
- window.onerror in a preload script can be used to detect these problems
- only provides file, line number and a minimal error message
stderr gets cluttered with Chromium logs

Elm 0.15.1 vs 0.16 on Chrome

Result of running these benchmarks on Chrome 45.0.2454.101

These numbers seem to be pretty consistent on Blink-based browsers (Chrome and Opera) but are more like 20% to 50% improvements on FireFox, Safari, and IE. I am not sure how to explain that, so take these numbers more as an indicator of “Elm is generating faster code across the board” as opposed to “Elm is 10x faster!”

The Joy of Composition

Why stateless rendering is pure bliss

React just got stateless components, meaning that they are in essence pure functions for rendering. Pure functions make it dead simple - even fun - to refactor your views

	function Markdown(value) {
	this.value = value \|\| '';
	this.length = this.value.length;
	};
	Markdown.prototype = new String;

	// Instance methods
	Markdown.prototype.toString = Markdown.prototype.valueOf = function(){return this.value};
	Markdown.prototype.toHTML = function(){return Markdown.decode(this)};

	demo :- http://jsfiddle.net/bjkkD/20/

	Implements RadioNodeList :- http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/common-dom-interfaces.html#radionodelist

	Implementation just adds `.value` as a property to `NodeList`.

	Requires ES5 shim and ES5 shimmable browser. (Modern and IE8)
