Majority of search result about unit testing Angular.js apps is about how to do it by using test frameworks that run the tests in a real browser. Even though it's great to be able to test your code in multiple platforms, in my opinion it creates a lot of boilerplate code and makes it hard to run the tests in, for instance a CI-server.

Testing Angular.js app headlessly with node.js + mocha

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

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

Goals:

  1. Provide smooth upgrade path
  2. Avoid npm install trolling
  3. Shed backwards compatibility quickly

Assumptions:

  1. Most package.json entries use ^ like this: ^1.0.0
  2. Many app test suites fail with console warnings, and therefore assume

How I'd do code splitting in Redux (pseudo code, not tested!)
import { combineReducers } from 'redux';
import users from './reducers/users';
import posts from './reducers/posts';
export default function createReducer(asyncReducers) {
return combineReducers({
users,
posts,
...asyncReducers
});

Sequential execution of Promises using reduce()
function asyncFunc(e) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
setTimeout(() => resolve(e), e * 1000);
});
}
const arr = [1, 2, 3];
let final = [];
function workMyCollection(arr) {

Thinking metrics on React applications

In regular websites, it is common to send multiple events to track user clicks. Single Page Applications change the way you look at metrics. This is a talk about a simple pattern we created at Globo.com to manage a metrics layer for http://globoplay.globo.com. The talk will cover how to track user flow using Google Analytics and other services. We solved the challenge of tying metrics and components, keeping information across pages and having global data. Also some React, React Router and React Side Effects concepts like context, higher order components, history state will be covered.

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would
