A ZSH theme optimized for people who use:
- Solarized
- Git
- Unicode-compatible fonts and terminals (I use iTerm2 + Menlo)
For Mac users, I highly recommend iTerm 2 + Solarized Dark
Recently CSS has got a lot of negativity. But I would like to defend it and show, that with good naming convention CSS works pretty well.
My 3 developers team has just developed React.js application with 7668
lines of CSS (and just 2 !important
).
During one year of development we had 0 issues with CSS. No refactoring typos, no style leaks, no performance problems, possibly, it is the most stable part of our application.
Here are main principles we use to write CSS for modern (IE11+) browsers:
// === Arrays | |
var [a, b] = [1, 2]; | |
console.log(a, b); | |
//=> 1 2 | |
// Use from functions, only select from pattern | |
var foo = () => [1, 2, 3]; |
When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:
const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');
Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.
FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
