Friendly URLs in Rails

Friendly URLs

By default, Rails applications build URLs based on the primary key -- the id column from the database. Imagine we have a Person model and associated controller. We have a person record for Bob Martin that has id number 6. The URL for his show page would be:

/people/6

But, for aesthetic or SEO purposes, we want Bob's name in the URL. The last segment, the 6 here, is called the "slug". Let's look at a few ways to implement better slugs.

Bootstrap's Typeahead plugin extended (allowing for AJAX functionality) among other things

This is a fork of Bootstrap Typeahead that adds minimal but powerful extensions.

For example, process typeahead list asynchronously and return objects

  # This example does an AJAX lookup and is in CoffeeScript
  $('.typeahead').typeahead(
    # source can be a function
    source: (typeahead, query) ->
 # this function receives the typeahead object and the query string

How to make a proper button bar on ICS
<!--
A button bar is a set of buttons at the bottom of an activity.
An example is an AlertDialog with OK/Cancel buttons.
Note that something similar can be accomplished using a
split action bar and text-only action buttons, but this is an
alternate presentation that's often preferred.
-->

Android helper class for showing cheat sheets (tooltips) for icon-only UI elements on long-press. This is already default platform behavior for icon-only action bar items and tabs. This class provides this behavior for any other such UI element.
