React's API is fairly stable, and has been for a long time. Redux has almost become the de-facto standard for new projects, but again, it is just a library around a good idea: do all state transitions inside a pure function - get an in

All sorts of web pages. The tool will create HTML and CSS, the elements will use DOM flow and positioning, and grid columns if that information is annotated through our UI. The developer has to give meaningful names through our UI so that w

There have been a couple of tools that have attempted to automate this. A quick google for "automatic PSD to HTML" will turn up many. But almost all of them produce markup that is tightly dependent on the organization of the layer

The question I was pondering in the comment was whether the tragic cycle of progress and destruction is true or not. I'd love to learn otherwise - but data paints a bleak picture. It took just about twenty years after the 'war to

It limits useful things that can be done, but comes up with worse way to do the same. Code/view reuse for example is done through partials in template languages: you can either learn `<%= render partial: "filename" %>`
