Programming

List of conventional terms, etc.

Ongoing list of scenarios I often encounter with some solutions.

Basic tooling and commands across operating systems. Ongoing as I work between platforms.

Design Patterns

Strategies surrounding stateful object creation.

UX, Accessibility, Design

Basic building blocks of UI design, with some of my notes (an ongoing effort).

Brief write-up of state of automated translation for non-profits in 2022, including an argument for/against.

Round-up of tools to create QR codes, which can help ease the work involved to share a URL in certain contexts (signs, cards, between devices).

A rapid deep-dive on the favicon, a feature I am always surprised to hear so much about from super users.

History and round-up of well-known wayfinding symbols used in the United States, including rest rooms, international symbol of accessibility, recreation, and transportation.

A critical but often undiscussed workflow topic.

Part art, part science. Years of experience have led me here.

Maps

Tools for abstract visualizations that feel illustrated.

Notes for using Esri's cloud tooling to control style choices of basemaps and layers.

Front-end

Common Problems

Points of pain through lived experience. 😬

What happens when you create components around table/tr/td or row/col mark-up structure?

The moments that give me pause and signal I may need to re-evaluate when/where I utilize a particular technique.

Re-usability

Getting started with Vuetify's base components, mixins, and factories. Because really, you don't want to re-invent groupable behavior every single time.

Communicating across the stack

I firmly believed the JavaScript ➡ Server hand-off in a stack is not talked about enough. Especially true when there are documentation issues in the stack itself.

Common methods for managing request cancellation and spinner display.

Without a CDN, if you want beautiful imagery and good performance, you need to think through serving the correct assets. It's no small task. I've built a couple of dynamic image generators/APIs and I really enjoy this kind of project. They are a bit nerve-wracking.

Lived experience managing cases of shared memory use and threading particular scenarios.

DevOps

Conceptual notes from experiments and sourcing container images.

Cheat sheet for things I don't always remember how to do with git.

Thinking through options for testing mail locally or through a safe mail server setup.

Database / Entity Relationship Diagramming

So important, and so much suffering with tooling in recent years (looking at you SSMS). Fortunately many popular services have added common visual symbols to their tooling (LucidChart and Miro, finally!).
