Unfortunately, the Cisco AnyConnect client for Mac conflicts with Pow. And by "conflicts", I mean it causes a grey-screen-of-death kernel panic anytime you connect to the VPN and Pow is installed.

As an alternative, there is OpenConnect, a command-line client for Cisco's AnyConnect SSL VPN.

Here's how to get it set up on Mac OS X:

1. OpenConnect can be installed via homebrew:

    brew update
   

brew install openconnect

Web Project Best Practices

Proper Gitignoring

When starting a project, or joining a project that hasn't done this yet, the first thing you should do is set up proper gitignore files. There should be a master gitignore in the project root based on the h5bp master gitignore, and a cache dir specific gitignore in each cache directory. Without proper gitignoring, junk files tend to find their way into commits and removing them becomes a pain, as everyone gets modified/removed conflicts forever after. The reasoning behind using a gitignore file for each cache folder separately instead of including path/to/cache_dir/* in the master gitignore is that git is inconsistent in whether the folder itself is actually stored in the remote git repo. It is most consistent to have gitignores ignoring all but themselves in each cache directory. Then that directory must always be in the remote repo in order to contain the .gitignore file.

• [Cache Dir Git

The idea is to have nginx installed and node installed. I will extend this gist to include how to install those as well, but at the moment, the following assumes you have nginx 0.7.62 and node 0.2.3 installed on a Linux distro (I used Ubuntu).

In a nutshell,

1. nginx is used to serve static files (css, js, images, etc.)
2. node serves all the "dynamic" stuff.

So for example, www.foo.com request comes and your css, js, and images get served thru nginx while everything else (the request for say index.html or "/") gets served through node.

3. nginx listens on port 80.
