There are two dimensions to any design art. One is the texture and the other is the pattern. Take a tile, for instance. It has a smooth surface which we call texture and a design on it which we call pattern. Typically, one has to work with lines, curves, spirals, geometric shapes and other abstract designs to create a design pattern which is consistent and visually pleasing. In the world of design

The purpose of creating a website is to ensure that you “write less, and talk more”, and promote your business to thousands of potential customers. This is where user engagement plays a major role. When you provide the best experience to your users, you will in turn see better results for your marketing efforts. Using the various online tools to a good effect can help improve your website experien

It’s official, the long wait is finally over, as ECMAScript 6 has been approved as a new standard. The anticipation for this approval has been running wild in the community for months, and years for others. While the evolutionary progress of the language was slow at first, the last few years have seen an incredible growth rate. A lot of developers and developer publications out there have started

Just a few days ago we saw a release of Angular 1.4.0 — a community driven release that covers a list of over 400 GitHub commits, adding improvements to features such as animations, and accessibility. The official press release covers most of the ground, it’s worth hanging around the official repository as well. Angular.js is an amazing JavaScript framework, there is no question about that, but de

React is a quickly evolving JavaScript library that lets developers build fast user interfaces, since the launch of React, it has quickly managed to become one of the most sought after frameworks in the category. Even though it is incredible easy and simple to work with React, a lot of the community members are still arguing about the actual benefits of throwing everything away and settling for a

JavaScript is changing at a very rapid pace right now, the term Vanilla JavaScript has been very popular as of late, and will probably gain more attention over the coming months. I can relate to front-end being a miserable journey, but JavaScript has been evolving at a very rapid pace. I recently published a post about JavaScript, in it – I discussed some tips and insights when it comes to becomin

Imagine for a second the fact that, five years ago, we already had frameworks like jQuery to play with, and while not as functional and feature rich as today – it was already possible to configure and play with the web in hardly imaginable ways. Today, there are literally hundreds of thousands of frameworks available to anyone who is brave enough to learn something new. Yes, most of them play very

You won’t just learn the ins and outs of software architecture from this list, you’re going to master it; if you can afford to invest the required amount of time, and real-life application to what you’ve learned. Software architecture is actually a fairly broad term, and when broken down into a smaller list – seems to make a little bit more sense. We can think of software architecture as the base

Go – otherwise known as Golang – is a programming language that’s built by Google. (hence, the name) Quite a few large companies haven chosen to use Go in their projects, good examples are those of CloudFlare, Disqus, and even Secret. I think there are literally hundreds more, but it does go to show that the language is well-prepared for high demand websites. Golang has plenty of disadvantages, bu

Data mining, data analysis, these are the two terms that very often make the impressions of being very hard to understand – complex – and that you’re required to have the highest grade education in order to understand them. I can only disagree, and as with anything in this wonderful life of ours, we only need to spend a certain amount of time learning something, practicing it, before we realize th

Programming is becoming an essential part of nearly every industry known to man, the way it helps to organize and maintain large systems is not possible to compare to anything else, and so more and more people begin their journey. You can learn to code both from interactive platforms and also from books – whichever you find most appropriate and easy to learn from. But, sometimes that’s not good en

JavaScript libraries in no way declining, and the number is growing each day. When it comes to building JavaScript applications, it’s better to rely on templates than on full-scale libraries, because it enables us to have a much cleaner code base, and much better workflow to work with. I wrote recently that you should try and build your own JavaScript libraries, when it’s time. But, template engin

I suppose the most important to acknowledge is the fact that the programs you build, aren’t going to move themselves forward and a certain amount of time needs to be spent tinkering, before something can come to life – and no doubt it’s a nice feeling. Node.js is on a steady rise, and to this day – my blog post about Minimal Node.js frameworks, and the one about Web Application Frameworks, are sti

It’s not always possible to get your hands on some really good chart software, as a matter of fact – I recently blogged about some top flowchart software in the market, and while there is variety – I’m pretty sure there are those who prefer something more native to the web. I look at charts and graphs as a way of publishing higher quality content, and not just because I want to, but because it has

It’s becoming harder and harder to find good, unique art that I can use as my featured images for posts, if you know of anymore website like Behance, Twibfy or Draft, I’ll greatly appreciate the suggestions, perhaps even create a post out of them. Why a CSS framework, grid system? Well, a CSS framework will usually contain predefined ‘stacks’ of code, enabling you to accelerate your development pr

Ruby is one of those programming languages that have been around for many years, twenty in this case. It has managed to stay on top of things, and as far as I know – it has one of the nicest and enthusiastic communities that a programming language has ever had. I’m not even cheesing. It’s also on the list of recommended web programming languages to learn this year. I had put together a list not so

Yes, this is the 2nd edition to my list of Node.js frameworks, the first one was where I had put together a list of seven Minimal Node.js Frameworks, which later turned into one of my most visited, shared and admired posts on this blog. If you were a part of the success, thank you and hopefully we can make this one just as good. I have since received a ton of emails, comments and social media quer

Hello World in Python You might have forgotten how to do it, here is a reminder. print "Hello World!"; I also enjoy this one, while True: for i in ["/","*","|","\\","|"]: print "%s\r" % i, It’s easier to work on something when you’ve got the basic stuff covered for you, this is why frameworks have become so popular within the developer communities around all of the programming languages, you can’t

Node.js or most commonly know as Node, is a JavaScript platform that allows you to build large scale web applications. Node.js is a platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distr
