This document provides tips and strategies for efficient JavaScript development. It discusses writing code through coding style, editors, templates, and code analyzers. It also covers running code by addressing loading, environments, AJAX requests, and debugging. Debugging techniques include using debuggers, object inspection, isolating problems, and fixing code through trial and error, alerts/logging, and tuning.
APIs and SDKs: Breaking Into and Succeeding in a Specialty MarketScott Abel
Presented by Edward Marshall at Documentation and Training East 2009, October 29 - November 1, 2008 in Burlington, MA.
Documenting Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Software Development Kits (SDKs) is a challenging but rewarding niche in technical communication. This session discusses what these products do, who uses them, moving into this area, benefits / drawbacks to working on these products, issues unique to these products, and commonly used help authoring tools. As the demand is often greater than the supply of writers, you can get higher pay than for other types of writing. You often get greater flexibility in telecommuting / working remotely in this area. Sample source code and the documentation produced from them will be shown.
This is the Google Tech Talk that I gave August 17th, 2007 on building a JavaScript library. I derived much of the talk from my experiences in building the jQuery and FUEL JavaScript libraries.

JavaScript The Language Meetup - Async functionswolframkriesing
"JavaScript The Language" #jslang is a hands-on meetup just about the language JavaScript (as specified). Not about any library, framework or the latest programming techniques.
This time we focused on async functions (also known as async+await).
TDD for Kids - VLCjs (Valencia Spain, July 2015)wolframkriesing
In order to get hooked by TDD it sometimes seems too much effort to setup things, but that should not be the barrier. Along came Google Spreadsheets and I had a no-setup environment, at least for doing katas and showing of the magic of being rewarded with a red box switching to green once I implemented the right thing. I will tell you the story of how I tried to make TDD as simple as possible and how I ended up with Google Spreadsheets and also how this inspired me to build tddbin.com for use at our JSCodeRetreats. I believe it's the red-green cycle that got them hooked. I did it with students and also kids even a manager asked me "why does not everyone program like that?".

ES6Katas.org - an introduction and the story behindwolframkriesing
We at uxebu created ES6Katas.org. Our TDD background made it feel natural to explore the new language features using katas. So we developed some katas, so others can do too. I will show you why TDDBin was an essential part of it and how you can have fun with it and learn while doing so.

One of the hardest thing I re-learned way too late again was thinking in small steps. Baby steps. They are a very helpful concept for developing with working in code esp. when refactoring or TDDing. Why do baby steps make sense? And how can you get into the mind set?
A coding dojo style talk - where the audience drives me, tells me what to do. Each person gets three minutes to drive me towards the result. On the way we discover, discuss and try to figure out some details about how to best approach a solution. We do some refactoring and in the end a quick retrospective of what we have applied, where we could improve and what take away might be worth to apply in the day job when back in real life.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
