A way to make Himawari-8 animations

Himawari-8 animation tutorial

Here’s how to make animations like this one. It requires intermediate Unix command-line knowledge, to install some tools and to debug if they don’t work. You’ll need these utilities:

  • curl (or you can translate to wget)
  • convert and montage, part of ImageMagick
  • ffmpeg, plus whatever codecs
  • parallel, for iteration that’s nicer than shell for loops or xargs
  • run everything in zsh for leading 0s in numerical ranges to work

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

ES7's async/await syntax.
// ES7, async/await
function sleep(ms = 0) {
return new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, ms));
}
(async () => {
console.log('a');
await sleep(1000);
console.log('b');
})()

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.
