Backbone.js model caching
# ## Backbone model caching
# This is a simple solution to the problem "how do I make less requests to
# my server?".
#
# Whenever you need a model instance, this will check first if the same thing
# has been fetched before, and gives you the same instance instead of fetching
# the same data from the server again.
#
# Reusing the same instance also has the great side-effect of making your
# model changeable from one part of your code, with your changes being available

Some useful Git aliases that I use every day
#
# Working with branches
#
# Get the current branch name (not so useful in itself, but used in
# other aliases)
branch-name = "!git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD"
# Push the current branch to the remote "origin", and set it to track
# the upstream branch
publish = "!git push -u origin $(git branch-name)"

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

IndexedDB Full Text Search (Proof of Concept)

This demonstrates the implementation of full text search for documents in Indexed DB.

  • Word-breaking and stemming is used to create a list of terms for each document.
  • Document records are annotated with the list of terms when added to the database.
  • A multi-entry index on the list of terms is populated.
  • A query is similarly processed into a list of terms.
  • A join over the terms is implemented using multiple cursors on the index.

The necessity of annotating records with the word list to populate the index is a limitation of the current Indexed DB API. A feature request to support custom

WCEU 2017 Contributor Day REST API architecture and request API lifecycle overview

REST API Contributor Day

Plan for the day

  • Improve documentation
    • Something we explain very poorly in the REST API handbook; hoping to explain it today to de-mystify
    • Handbook is what was on WP-API.org -- some stuff in there is very good and some that is out of date
    • We have some guides but they are not organized
    • We want to come up with a coherent content architecture
  • Expand the endpoints presented by the API
