This document discusses developing applications using XULRunner, Mozilla's runtime environment for building desktop applications with web technologies. It provides an overview of XULRunner and how it can be used to create Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) that have capabilities beyond regular web apps, such as offline use and native OS integration. The document outlines the core components of XULRunner like XUL and XPCOM, compares it to Adobe AIR, and provides guidance on setting up development environments and libraries for building XULRunner applications. It also presents a sample blog writing application as an example project.
"Marshroute: удобный и расширяемый роутинг в iOS-приложении" Тимур Юсипов (Av...AvitoTech
В своём докладе я расскажу о подходе к построению навигации в больших приложениях на примере демо-проекта, приближенного по архитектуре к приложению Avito. Данная архитектура позволяет поддерживать DeepLink’и и iPad в существующем приложении, показывать плашки Push-уведомлений в верхнем видимом модуле, совершать переходы из верхнего видимого модуля, вызванные корневым модулем приложения, а также централизовано управлять анимацией переходов. Разработанная нами навигация оборачивает UIKit для совершения переходов в засахаренном и декларативном стиле. Использование этой системы позволило снизить связанность кода для повышения его переиспользуемости и тестируемости, а также выработать общие стандарты к построению стека навигации.
Встреча iOS-разработчиков @ Avito #2 - 24 сентября 2016
Lab session given at OSCON Java 2011:
Visage is the successor to the JavaFX Script Language, a domain-specific language for writing UIs. It excels at rapid application design and can be used on any platform that supports Java. In this lab you will have an opportunity to write Visage applications that deploy to and run on Android mobile devices. No prior experience with Android or Visage development is required.

Titanium - Making the most of your single threadRonald Treur
The native app development environments support multiple threads. Titanium however does not (out of the box), it only supports a single thread. In this presentaton, Ronald Treur will shortly explain how threading works and why this knowledge matters. But more important, he will show you how to keep heavy duty processes from blocking others.

ClojureScript - Making Front-End development Fun again - John Stevenson - Cod...Codemotion
Front-end development has an amazing assortment of libraries and tools, yet it can seem very complex and doest seem much fun. So we'll live code a ClojureScript application (with a bit of help from Git) and show how development doesn't have to be complex or slow. Through live evaluation, we can build a reactive, functional application. Why not take a look at a well designed language that uses modern functional & reactive concepts for building Front-End apps. You are going to have to trans-pile anyway, so why not use a language, libraries and tooling that is bursting with fun to use.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
