Everything you need to know about Shadow DOM

I am moving this gist to a github repo so more people can contribute to it. Also, it makes it easier for me to version control.

Please go to - https://github.com/praveenpuglia/shadow-dom-in-depth for latest version of this document. Also, if you find the document useful, please shower your love, go ⭐️ it. :)

Shadow DOM

Heads Up! It's all about the V1 Spec.

In a nutshell, Shadow DOM enables local scoping for HTML & CSS.

connect.js explained
// connect() is a function that injects Redux-related props into your component.
// You can inject data and callbacks that change that data by dispatching actions.
function connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps) {
// It lets us inject component as the last step so people can use it as a decorator.
// Generally you don't need to worry about it.

Alternative ways to define react Components

The 0.13.0 improvements to React Components are often framed as "es6 classes" but being able to use the new class syntax isn't really the big change. The main thing of note in 0.13 is that React Components are no longer special objects that need to be created using a specific method (createClass()). One of the benefits of this change is that you can use the es6 class syntax, but also tons of other patterns work as well!

Below are a few examples creating React components that all work as expected using a bunch of JS object creation patterns (https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS/blob/master/this%20&amp;%20object%20prototypes/ch4.md#mixins). All of the examples are of stateful components, and so need to delegate to React.Component for setState(), but if you have stateless components each patterns tends to get even simpler. The one major caveat with react components is that you need to assign props and context to the component instance otherwise the component will be static. The reason is

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

One of the best ways to reduce complexity (read: stress) in web development is to minimize the differences between your development and production environments. After being frustrated by attempts to unify the approach to SSL on my local machine and in production, I searched for a workflow that would make the protocol invisible to me between all environments.

Most workflows make the following compromises:

  • Use HTTPS in production but HTTP locally. This is annoying because it makes the environments inconsistent, and the protocol choices leak up into the stack. For example, your web application needs to understand the underlying protocol when using the secure flag for cookies. If you don't get this right, your HTTP development server won't be able to read the cookies it writes, or worse, your HTTPS production server could pass sensitive cookies over an insecure connection.

  • Use production SSL certificates locally. This is annoying
