An Introduction to Web Components | CSS-TricksFront-end development moves at a break-neck pace. This is made evident by the myriad articles, tutorials, and Twitter threads bemoaning the state of what once was a fairly simple tech stack. In this article, I’ll discuss why Web Components are a great tool to deliver high-quality user experiences without complicated frameworks or build steps and that don’t run the risk of becoming obsolete. In subsequent articles of this five-part series, we will dive deeper into each of the specifications.This series assumes a basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. If you feel weak in one of those areas, don’t worry, building a custom element actually simplifies many complexities in front-end development.tagged: componentswebweb-components19-03-2019

Honeycomb CEO Charity Majors discusses observability and dealing with "the coming armageddon of complexity" [Interview] | Packt HubTransparency is underrated in the tech industry. But as software systems grow in complexity and their relationship with the real world becomes increasingly fraught, it nevertheless remains a value worth fighting for.But to effectively fight for it, it’s essential to remember that transparency is a technological issue, not just a communication one. Decisions about how software is built and why it’s built in the way that it is lie at the heart of what it means to work in software engineering. Indeed, the industry is in trouble if we can’t see just how important those questions are in relation to everything from system reliability to our collective mental health.tagged: observabilitycomplexity14-03-2019

Image Manipulation for Developers | CloudinaryWhether your web application supports user uploaded images, you deliver static images, or you display profile pictures from social networks, you probably need to manipulate them to fit the graphic design of your Web site or mobile application.Cloudinary allows you to easily transform your images on-the-fly to any required format, style and dimension, and also optimizes images for minimal file size alongside high visual quality for an improved user experience and minimal bandwidth. You can do all of this by implementing dynamic image transformation and delivery URLs. You can change the required transformations at any time. All transformed images are created on-demand (lazily) and delivered to your users through a fast CDN with optimized caching.For example, you can resize and crop images, deliver them using the image format that fits your needs, and/or apply a variety of filters and effects. You can also use our smart cropping techniques, including face-detection or auto-gravity for cropping based on the most relevant parts of uploaded photos. For complex transformations, you can use the Management Console or Admin API for defining named transformations and even run a set of chained transformations on your images. You can also use the Management Console to view delivery usage reports and optimization insights.This page teaches you how Cloudinary transformations work and provides detailed descriptions and use‑case examples for commonly-used transformations.tagged: imagestransformationapi13-03-2019
