Last week, I looked at handling keyboard shortcuts in a modular JavaScript application architecture . In that initial exploration, I distributed the handling of keyboard shortcuts across two different modules: a Controller module and the View module that would ultimately be affected by the …
Yesterday, when using Gmail, I started to think about keyboard shortcuts. Specifically, I started to think about how keyboard shortcuts get routed within a modular JavaScript application architecture. If I have a module that can respond to the keyboard - but, that module is not supposed to …
Last week, I talked about loading GitHub Gist content after the DOM (Document Object Model) had loaded . This was a somewhat complex operation since the remote Gist Script tag uses document.write() in order to inject the Gist content into the calling document. If document.write() is called after …
Last weekend, I read Mobile First by Luke Wroblewski . It was a compelling read that talked about the broader benefits of designing to the constraints of a mobile experience. At the end of his book, he suggested that Ethan Marcotte's book on Responsive Web Design would be a perfect compliment to …

Last night, I was listening to the Lately In JavaScript podcast . Among the many items discussed, one topic that was brought up was the emergence of the LET keyword in the next version of ECMAScript (the language on which JavaScript is based). LET allows for block-level variable binding; so, …

Last week, I started looking around for a new color-coding solution for my blog's syntax highlighting. For the past couple of years, I've been using my own home-grown algorithm; which worked well for ColdFusion but, quite poorly for everything else. After looking at some of the options out …
A long time ago, I created a syntax highlighter / color-coder for my blog post code snippets. It was a pain to create; but in the end, it worked pretty well. For ColdFusion code. That was tag based. In recent years, however, I've tried to branch out a bit, playing with other languages, …
As of now, all of my experimentation with modular JavaScript application architecture has been exclusive to client-side code. That is, it involves Views and Controllers, but no real sense of any Model that is tied to a persistent data store. As I've started to think about experimenting with the …
A little while back, I started looking at RequireJS as away to organize and modularize my JavaScript code . And, while I am still getting my feet wet in modular JavaScript web application development, I can tell you that I have really enjoyed using RequireJS - and, that I plan to continue to …
I'm relatively new to the Mac OSX operating system . And, as far as getting around on the command-line, I'm even more of a novice. I can't remember where I saw this, but recently, I saw a fellow programmer execute a set of command-line scripts from a file. What was so interesting to me about …
