Use bitbucket as a private offsite code backup (edited)
Now that bitbucket supports git, it's easy to use their service as a free, private, offsite code backup. Just create an empty repo for your project on bitbucket, add it as a remote to your development repo:
username@host:~/project$ git remote add bitbucket [email protected]:username/project.git
Edit: I had to change in the config file the url value to set the complete https url: https://[email protected]/username/project.git
and use this post-commit hook to silently and automatically push your changes up after each commit.

Here are a set of libraries, plugins and guides which may be useful to your Javascript coding.

Libraries

  • jQuery - The de-facto library for the modern age. It makes things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax much simpler with an easy-to-use API that works across a multitude of browsers.
  • Backbone - Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface.
  • AngularJS - Conventions based MVC framework for HTML5 apps.
  • Underscore - Underscore is a utility-belt library for JavaScript that provides a lot of the functional programming support that you would expect in Prototype.js (or Ruby), but without extending any of the built-in JavaScript objects.
  • lawnchair - Key/value store adapter for indexdb, localStorage
1. Open a command prompt and navigate to /etc/nginx/ssl
2. issue "openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout server.key -out server.csr"
3. Get your certificate - Go to your certificate authority and give them the CSR
4. copy your new crt to the /etc/nginx/ssl and give it read priveledges
5. reconfigure your nginx.conf, here is mine. The first part redirects 80 to 443, the second part listens to 443 and is optimized to return Ruby on Rails application requests using gzip and unicorn.
