The Marketplace and how to deal with CSP on Firefox OS devices
By Jan Jongboom. For developers Firefox OS is amazing. Like on the normal web, users will have a modern browser that supports all the latest web standards. But if you've decided to develop in Firefox OS, you should know that the marketplace poses some constraints on your application that you will run into when publishing your app. In this article, based on Firefox OS in Action, I'll cover some of those constraints.
JavaScript Application Design
By Nico Bevacqua, author of JavaScript Application Design. Committing to a build technology is hard. It's an important choice and you should treat it as such. In this article, based on the Appendix from JavaScript Application Design, you'll learn about three build tools used most often in front-end development workflows. The tools covered are Grunt, the configuration-driven build tool; npm, a package manager that can also double as a build tool; and Gulp, a code-driven build tool that's somewhere in between Grunt and npm.
A Quick Sweep through C#
Each new version of C# has added significant features to reduce developer angst, but always in a carefully considered way, and with little backward incompatibility. In this greenpaper, based on C# in Depth, Third Edition, author Jon Skeet gives an overview what C# can do.
The Browser Binding with a CMIS Repository
CMIS 1.0 defines two bindings, the Web Services binding and the AtomPub binding; and CMIS 1.1 adds a third, the Browser binding. In this article, based on chapter 11 of CMIS and Apache Chemistry in Action, the authors discuss Browser binding.
There are over 200 articles, green papers, and sample chapters in the Free Content Center, with more added continuously.
