(C-x means ctrl+x, M-x means alt+x)

Prefix key

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:

remap prefix to Control + a

Comparative Benchmark Numbers @ Rackspace

I've taken the benchmarks from Matthew Rothenberg's phoenix-showdown, updated Phoenix to 0.13.1 and ran the tests on the most powerful machines available at Rackspace.

Results

Framework	Throughput (req/s)	Latency (ms)	Consistency (σ ms)

Greensock CSS properties Cheat Sheet

I wrote this as a reference for myself because some of the property names are non-obvious, and there are a number of relevant special properties, and there is no central concise listing of them all in GSAP Docs, other than (in longer form) on the CSSPlugin page.

Standard CSS properties

...are all supported, with hyphenated-names becoming camelCaseNames. Non-animatable properties are also supported but they will be set at the beginning of the tween.

Special mentions:

A lot of people mentioned other immutable JS libraries after reading my post. I thought it would be good to make a list of available ones.

There are two types of immutable libraries: simple helpers for copying JavaScript objects, and actual persistent data structure implementations. My post generally analyzed the tradeoffs between both kinds of libraries and everything applies to the below libraries in either category.

Libraries are sorted by github popularity.

Persistent Data Structures w/structural sharing

%Q, %q, %W, %w, %x, %r, %s, %i

Perl-inspired notation to quote strings: by using % (percent character) and specifying a delimiting character.

Any single non-alpha-numeric character can be used as the delimiter, %[including these], %?or these?, %~or even these things~.

Strings

% or %Q

Intro

For this Frontend Code review I did a check for Strich.io. The code can be checked here:

• https://github.com/bl4ckdu5t/strich/
• https://github.com/bl4ckdu5t/stylesheet

Development Architecture

• Don't check-in the "node_modules", and "dist" folder. Add it to the .gitignore file. If people will use this repository, the must run Gulp by default, so it's gonna be overwritten. Instead check-in the package.json.
