How to use React and Om to make a Single Page Application
In today’s guest article we’re going to use React, Om and Clojure to build a Single Page Application (SPA). SPAs are a great way to provide your audience with a desktop-level experience via traditional HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. While simple SPAs are easy to build using these technologies, large and complex SPA’s frequently become challenging to develop and maintain. One of the biggest challenges in these scenarios comes from a SPA’s reliance on JavaScript. That's where Om and Clojure come in. ... read more →

Quick Tips for HTML5 Game Developers
When the HTML5 standard hit the web, a lot of things changed for the better. The new markup language boasted a whole lot of new features, and it didn’t took long for developers to jump in and put all the new tech to work. One of the fields that takes great advantage of what HTML5 has to offer is gaming; while browser games were considered soon-to-be-extinct due to the huge improvements brought by video games, HTML5 gives them another chance by allowing them to become a lot more complex, feature-rich, and visually appealing. If you’re planning on developing a HTML5-based game, here is a list of things to take into account. ... read more →

Fighting crimes with Batman.js - Interview with Nick Small of Shopify
There are many MVC frameworks for client-side development. According to GitHub stats, AngularJS is now the second most popular JavaScript MVC framework right after Backbone. What made Angular popular? I'd say people like it because of its declarative style and bidirectional data binding in views. But did you know that there is another framework that provides similar binding features and a lot more? It is called batman.js. In many cases it looks a bit like AngularJS. As you know, there is Google behind Angular, but batman.js is maintained by Shopify (also no stranger to open source) and looks really promising. ... read more →

The Others: CoffeeScript, Dart, TypeScript...
Javascript is almost a ubiquitous language. In a way it is comparable to C in its heyday. It is the language you need to know, or at least be aware of these days.

There are even ways to program embedded systems using it (see noduino for an example). ... read more →
JavaScript Color Pickers
If you are building an application that deals with graphics somehow, you are likely going to need a color picker. Fortunately there are quite a few of those available for JavaScript. HTML5 includes color input type even. One color picker, aptly named nativeColorPicker, provides a shim for Internet Explorer so that you have got all bases covered. Other pickers available are more specialized. One example of these is colorjoe. That is a widget I developed myself after getting frustrated with existing alternatives. My primary goals were to make it scaleable using CSS (no images needed) and make it easy to adjust. I think I succeeded in these goals quite well. David Durman's Flexi shares the goal of avoiding images. It is actually a lot lighter than colorjoe (19k vs. 4k. minified) though given ... read more →
Top 7 Backbone Alternatives
It has become trendy to write Backbone based applications. But Backbone is not the only Javascript MVC framework in the world. And as many developers say maybe not the best one for every purpose. You may find it too lightweight, and it may lack the features you actually require. For example, you may want controllers and actual MVC stack, UI widgets, etc. If you feel like Backbone is not for you there are many other different frameworks worth to check out. In this post I will list some of the most popular ones. 1 8402 1726 4.25 Ember.js Ember.js (formerly SproutCore 2.0) is a JavaScript framework that does all of the heavy lifting that you'd normally have to do by hand.
