Here are a set of libraries, plugins and guides which may be useful to your Javascript coding.

Libraries

  • jQuery - The de-facto library for the modern age. It makes things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax much simpler with an easy-to-use API that works across a multitude of browsers.
  • Backbone - Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface.
  • AngularJS - Conventions based MVC framework for HTML5 apps.
  • Underscore - Underscore is a utility-belt library for JavaScript that provides a lot of the functional programming support that you would expect in Prototype.js (or Ruby), but without extending any of the built-in JavaScript objects.
  • lawnchair - Key/value store adapter for indexdb, localStorage

  • Thin - Very fast and lightweight Ruby web server
  • Unicorn - Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels.

Created October 27, 2013 01:49
how to use collect or map or select or each or inject or reject Or when to use each vs collect vs map vs select vs each vs inject vs reject
map and collect are same http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5254732/difference-between-map-and-collect-in-ruby
http://matthewcarriere.com/2008/06/23/using-select-reject-collect-inject-and-detect/
1. Use select or reject if you need to select or reject items based on a condition.
2. Use collect if you need to build an array of the results from logic in the block.
3. Use inject if you need to accumulate, total, or concatenate array values together.
4. Use detect if you need to find an item in an array.

vaichidrewar / zip_flatten_compact
Created October 27, 2013 01:51
Array manipulations zip , flatten, compact
zip
• zip interleaves the element of its receiver with those of its argument, using nil to pad if the first array is longer than the second; that is, [:a,:b,:c].zip([1,2])==[[:a,1],[:b,2],[:c,nil]]
flatten
• flatten takes an array that includes arbitrarily nested arrays and flattens them into a single array with no nested arrays, that is, [[:a,1],[:b,2],[:c,nil]].flatten==[:a,1,:b,2,:c,nil]
compact
• compact removes nil elements from a collection, that is, [:a,1,:c,nil].compact==[:a,1,:c]
