Essential JavaScript Links

I no longer mantain this list. There are lots of other very comprehensive JavaScript link lists out there. Please see those, instead (Google "awesome JavaScript" for a start).

# Hello, and welcome to makefile basics.
#
# You will learn why `make` is so great, and why, despite its "weird" syntax,
# it is actually a highly expressive, efficient, and powerful way to build
# programs.
#
# Once you're done here, go to
# http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html
# to learn SOOOO much more.

NOTE I'm trying to find the most optimal fav/touch icon setup for my use-cases. Nothing new here. Read Mathias Bynens' articles on re-shortcut-icon and touch icons, a FAQ or a Cheat Sheet for all the details.

I'd like to hear how you approach this: @valuedstandards or comment on this gist.

The issue

You have to include a boatload of link elements pointing to many different images to provide (mobile) devices with a 'favicon' or 'touch icon':

How to get facebook login working with Meteor and Cordova on iOS

Step 1: Make your local dev site internet accessible

Because there is an issue with OAuth2 login and localhost development, you currently have to deploy your meteor site to be able to test the Facebook login. A nice little workaround for this is to make the local instance of meteor accessible externally.

There is a great online guide for setting up port forwarding with your router and you can check your public external IP here.

For example, If you have an Apple router, simply open up Airport Utility on your Mac and click edit on your router, then go to the Network tab. Under Port Settings click the + icon and select Personal Web Sharing, setting all of the public and private ports to 3000. Make sure the private IP is set to your current computer IP.

Running web server in Clojure

Install Boot build tool: brew install boot-clj.

For JS people: Boot has a notion of tasks, so it's kind of similar to Grunt/Gulp.

build.boot is yours package.json and gulpfile.

ring-jetty-adapter provides Java's Jetty web framework, compojure is a routing library and hiccup is a lib for writing HTML. The task is defined using deftask macro, it runs run function which we :refer to.

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

UPDATE (March 2020, thanks @ic): I don't know the exact AMI version but yum install docker now works on the latest Amazon Linux 2. The instructions below may still be relevant depending on the vintage AMI you are using.

Amazon changed the install in Linux 2. One no-longer using 'yum' See: https://aws.amazon.com/amazon-linux-2/release-notes/

Docker CE Install

sudo amazon-linux-extras install docker
sudo service docker start
