Here are the best and most widely used programming languages for web browsers:
### 1. **JavaScript**
- **Overview**: JavaScript is the most fundamental and widely used language for web development. It is the only language that web browsers natively understand and execute for client-side scripting.
- **Use Cases**: Dynamic content, interactive elements, form validation, animations, AJAX, and single-page applications (SPA).
### 2. **TypeScript**
- **Overview**: TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that adds static typing and other features to enhance development efficiency and code quality. It compiles to plain JavaScript.
- **Use Cases**: Large-scale applications, projects where type safety and maintainability are crucial, and development teams that prefer stricter code structure.
### 3. **HTML (HyperText Markup Language)**
- **Overview**: HTML is not a programming language but a markup language essential for structuring web pages. It is the backbone of any web content.
- **Use Cases**: Document structure, content placement, and linking to other resources like CSS and JavaScript.
### 4. **CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)**
- **Overview**: CSS is another non-programming language used to style HTML content. It defines the look and layout of web pages.
- **Use Cases**: Visual design, responsive layouts, animations, and transitions.
### 5. **WebAssembly (Wasm)**
- **Overview**: WebAssembly is a binary instruction format that allows high-performance applications to run in the browser. It enables languages like C, C++, and Rust to run on the web.
- **Use Cases**: Performance-critical applications, games, video and image editing tools, and any application requiring near-native performance.
### 6. **Dart**
- **Overview**: Dart is an open-source, client-optimized language developed by Google. It is used with the Flutter framework for building web, mobile, and desktop applications.
- **Use Cases**: Cross-platform applications, especially those using the Flutter framework.
### 7. **Elm**
- **Overview**: Elm is a functional language that compiles to JavaScript. It is designed for building reliable and maintainable web applications.
- **Use Cases**: Web applications where reliability and maintainability are paramount, especially for front-end development.
### 8. **CoffeeScript**
- **Overview**: CoffeeScript is a language that compiles to JavaScript. It offers a more concise syntax and aims to enhance JavaScript's readability and writeability.
- **Use Cases**: Projects where developers prefer a more readable and concise syntax while still leveraging JavaScript's capabilities.
### 9. **ReasonML (ReScript)**
- **Overview**: ReasonML is a syntax extension and toolchain for OCaml, which compiles to JavaScript. It aims to bring type safety and functional programming features to JavaScript.
- **Use Cases**: Complex front-end applications where type safety and functional programming paradigms are beneficial.
### 10. **Python (via Transpilers like Brython)**
- **Overview**: While not natively supported by browsers, Python can be used in the browser through transpilers like Brython, which convert Python code to JavaScript.
- **Use Cases**: Educational purposes, prototyping, and projects where Python's readability and simplicity are preferred.
### Conclusion
JavaScript remains the cornerstone of web browser programming, with TypeScript providing enhanced features for larger projects. HTML and CSS are essential for structuring and styling web content. WebAssembly opens the door for performance-intensive applications, while other languages like Dart, Elm, and ReasonML offer unique benefits for specific use cases. Each of these languages and technologies can be chosen based on the project's requirements and the development team's expertise. | karthik_n |

1,881,196 | Legacy No More: Deprecated JavaScript Methods to Know About | Here are some methods and features in JavaScript that have been deprecated or are considered obsolete... | 0 | 2024-06-08T08:26:34 | https://dev.to/karthik_n/legacy-no-more-deprecated-javascript-methods-to-know-about-5gkb | Here are some methods and features in JavaScript that have been deprecated or are considered obsolete and should be avoided in modern code:
### 1. **`escape()` and `unescape()`**
These functions were used for encoding and decoding strings but have been deprecated in favor of `encodeURI()`, `encodeURIComponent()`, `decodeURI()`, and `decodeURIComponent()`.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const encoded = escape('Hello World!');
const decoded = unescape(encoded);
// Modern
const encodedURI = encodeURI('Hello World!');
const decodedURI = decodeURI(encodedURI);
```
### 2. **`document.write()`**
This method is still functional but considered bad practice as it can overwrite the entire document if used after the page has loaded.
```javascript
// Deprecated
document.write('<h1>Hello World!</h1>');
// Modern alternative
document.body.innerHTML = '<h1>Hello World!</h1>';
```
### 3. **`with` Statement**
The `with` statement is deprecated as it makes code difficult to understand and debug.
```javascript
// Deprecated
with (obj) {
a = 1;
b = 2;
}
// Modern alternative
obj.a = 1;
obj.b = 2;
```
### 4. **`__proto__`**
Directly accessing the `__proto__` property is deprecated. Use `Object.getPrototypeOf()` and `Object.setPrototypeOf()` instead.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const proto = obj.__proto__;
// Modern alternative
const proto = Object.getPrototypeOf(obj);
```
### 5. **`Function.prototype.arguments` and `Function.prototype.caller`**
These properties are deprecated due to their potential to create security issues and non-standard behavior.
```javascript
function example() {
// Deprecated
console.log(example.caller);
console.log(arguments);
}
// Modern alternative
function example(...args) {
console.log(args);
}
```
### 6. **`String.prototype.substr()`**
`substr()` is deprecated in favor of `substring()` and `slice()`.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const str = 'Hello World';
const subStr = str.substr(1, 4); // 'ello'
// Modern alternatives
const subStr1 = str.substring(1, 5); // 'ello'
const subStr2 = str.slice(1, 5); // 'ello'
```
### 7. **`Event.returnValue`**
This property is deprecated. Use `Event.preventDefault()` instead.
```javascript
element.addEventListener('click', (event) => {
// Deprecated
event.returnValue = false;
// Modern alternative
event.preventDefault();
});
```
### 8. **`NodeIterator.expandEntityReferences`**
This property has been deprecated. It's not needed in modern web development as the parser handles entities automatically.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const iterator = document.createNodeIterator(document.body, NodeFilter.SHOW_ALL, null, false);
```
### 9. **`XMLHttpRequest` Synchronous Requests**
Synchronous XMLHttpRequest is deprecated and should be avoided in favor of asynchronous requests or `fetch()`.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('GET', 'https://api.example.com/data', false); // false makes it synchronous
xhr.send();
// Modern alternative
fetch('https://api.example.com/data')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data));
```
### 10. **`HTMLDocument.prototype.all`**
The `all` property is deprecated. Use standard DOM methods like `document.querySelectorAll()` instead.
```javascript
// Deprecated
const elements = document.all;
// Modern alternative
const elements = document.querySelectorAll('*');
```
These deprecated features should be avoided in modern JavaScript development to ensure compatibility, security, and maintainability of your code. | karthik_n | |

### 1. **`String.prototype.replaceAll()`**
Replaces all occurrences of a substring in a string.
```javascript
const str = 'foo bar foo';
const newStr = str.replaceAll('foo', 'baz');
console.log(newStr); // baz bar baz
```
### 2. **`Promise.allSettled()`**
Returns a promise that resolves after all of the given promises have either resolved or rejected.
```javascript
const promises = [
Promise.resolve(1),
Promise.reject('error'),
Promise.resolve(3)
];
Promise.allSettled(promises).then((results) => {
results.forEach((result) => console.log(result.status));
});
// fulfilled
// rejected
// fulfilled
```
### 3. **`Logical Assignment Operators`**
Combines logical operations with assignment.
```javascript
let a = 1;
a ||= 2; // a = a || 2
console.log(a); // 1
let b = 0;
b &&= 2; // b = b && 2
console.log(b); // 0
let c = null;
c ??= 3; // c = c ?? 3
console.log(c); // 3
```
### 4. **`Nullish Coalescing Operator (??)`**
Provides a default value when the left-hand side is `null` or `undefined`.
```javascript
const foo = null ?? 'default value';
console.log(foo); // default value
```
### 5. **`Optional Chaining (?.)`**
Allows safe access to deeply nested properties.
```javascript
const user = { address: { street: 'Main St' } };
const street = user?.address?.street;
console.log(street); // Main St
```
### 6. **`BigInt`**
A built-in object that provides a way to represent whole numbers larger than `2^53 - 1`.
```javascript
const largeNumber = BigInt(123456789012345678901234567890);
console.log(largeNumber); // 123456789012345678901234567890n
```
### 7. **`WeakRef` and `FinalizationRegistry`**
Allows creation of weak references to objects and registers a cleanup callback for when the object is garbage collected.
```javascript
let target = { data: 'some data' };
const weakRef = new WeakRef(target);
const registry = new FinalizationRegistry((heldValue) => {
console.log(`Cleaned up ${heldValue}`);
});
registry.register(target, 'some data');
target = null;
// Later, when garbage collected, "Cleaned up some data" will be logged.
```
### 8. **`Array.prototype.at()`**
Allows relative indexing in arrays.
```javascript
const array = [10, 20, 30, 40];
console.log(array.at(-1)); // 40
```
### 9. **`Object.hasOwn()`**
A safer alternative to `Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty`.
```javascript
const obj = { key: 'value' };
console.log(Object.hasOwn(obj, 'key')); // true
```
### 10. **`Top-level await`**
Allows using `await` at the top level of modules.
```javascript
// In a module file (e.g., module.mjs)
const data = await fetchData();
console.log(data);
```
### 11. **`Relative indexing method for Strings`**
The `at()` method is also available for strings.
```javascript
const str = 'hello';
console.log(str.at(-1)); // 'o'
```
### 12. **`Object.fromEntries()`**
Transforms a list of key-value pairs into an object.
```javascript
const entries = new Map([
['foo', 'bar'],
['baz', 42]
]);
const obj = Object.fromEntries(entries);
console.log(obj); // { foo: 'bar', baz: 42 }
```
These methods and operators provide more flexibility and efficiency in handling common programming tasks. | karthik_n | |
1,881,194 | Boost Your JavaScript Skills with These Expert Tips | Sure, here are some useful JavaScript tricks that can help you in your development: 1.... | 0 | 2024-06-08T08:23:26 | https://dev.to/karthik_n/boost-your-javascript-skills-with-these-expert-tips-3pa3 | webdev, javascript, beginners, programming | Sure, here are some useful JavaScript tricks that can help you in your development:
### 1. **Destructuring Assignment**
You can extract values from arrays or properties from objects into distinct variables.
```javascript
// Array Destructuring
const [first, second] = [10, 20];
console.log(first); // 10
console.log(second); // 20
// Object Destructuring
const { name, age } = { name: 'Alice', age: 25 };
console.log(name); // Alice
console.log(age); // 25
```
### 2. **Template Literals**
Use backticks `` ` `` for strings that include variables or expressions.
```javascript
const name = 'Alice';
const greeting = `Hello, ${name}!`;
console.log(greeting); // Hello, Alice!
```
### 3. **Default Parameters**
You can set default values for function parameters.
```javascript
function greet(name = 'Guest') {
return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}
console.log(greet()); // Hello, Guest!
console.log(greet('Alice')); // Hello, Alice!
```
### 4. **Arrow Functions**
A shorter syntax for writing functions.
```javascript
const add = (a, b) => a + b;
console.log(add(2, 3)); // 5
```
### 5. **Spread Operator**
Spread operator `...` allows an iterable such as an array to be expanded.
```javascript
const arr1 = [1, 2, 3];
const arr2 = [4, 5, 6];
const combined = [...arr1, ...arr2];
console.log(combined); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
```
### 6. **Rest Parameters**
Rest parameters allow you to represent an indefinite number of arguments as an array.
```javascript
function sum(...numbers) {
return numbers.reduce((acc, curr) => acc + curr, 0);
}
console.log(sum(1, 2, 3, 4)); // 10
```
### 7. **Short-circuit Evaluation**
Using `&&` and `||` for conditionals.
```javascript
const user = { name: 'Alice' };
const username = user.name || 'Guest';
console.log(username); // Alice
const isLoggedIn = true;
isLoggedIn && console.log('User is logged in'); // User is logged in
```
### 8. **Optional Chaining**
Access deeply nested properties without worrying if an intermediate property is null or undefined.
```javascript
const user = { address: { street: 'Main St' } };
const street = user?.address?.street;
console.log(street); // Main St
```
### 9. **Nullish Coalescing Operator**
Provides a default value when the left-hand side is `null` or `undefined`.
```javascript
const foo = null ?? 'default value';
console.log(foo); // default value
```
### 10. **Debouncing**
Optimize performance by limiting the rate at which a function executes.
```javascript
function debounce(func, delay) {
let debounceTimer;
return function() {
const context = this;
const args = arguments;
clearTimeout(debounceTimer);
debounceTimer = setTimeout(() => func.apply(context, args), delay);
};
}
const handleScroll = debounce(() => {
console.log('Scrolled!');
}, 300);
window.addEventListener('scroll', handleScroll);
```
These tricks can help you write cleaner, more efficient, and more readable JavaScript code. | karthik_n |

**How to log my first "Hello, World!" message**
This serves as my flashlight, helping me explore and tinker with different parts of the codebase.
**Are there any background tasks/jobs?**
This is crucial because these tasks can cause unexpected behavior. For example, I might wonder why a certain part isn't working as expected, only to find out later that a background worker is flipping some field after a few minutes. Understanding this can prevent a lot of frustration and confusion.
**The configurations**
To see if there is any third party services is being used and have an idea about those third party services. Or port number that could conflict with existing one.
This approach has never failed me, whether the codebase is spaghetti or a piece of cake. | shenoudafawzy |
1,881,180 | Beyond Money: The Impact of Enabling Widespread NFT Minting | The concept of Blockchain and NFT is rapidly revolutionizing the whole web landscape. Non-fungible... | 27,641 | 2024-06-08T08:16:49 | https://pragyasapkota.medium.com/nft-minting-6d1758b6af35 | blockchain, nft, ethereum, bitcoin | The concept of Blockchain and NFT is rapidly revolutionizing the whole web landscape. Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are transforming the digital ownership aspect day by day and while most people grasp the idea of how these tokens work, some are still confused about the whole concept.
In today’s blog, you will learn some fundamentals of NFT minting that can get you started on the concept. We will also get into the process of creating and issuing non-fungible tokens (NFTs) more accessible and user-friendly for creators and users, i.e., enabling widespread NFT minting.
## What is NFT?
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are the cryptographic assets representing ownership and proof of authenticity of any unique digital item or piece of content. Unlike fungible cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, NFTs are unique and in no way the tokens are interchangeable and equal in value. Each NFT has distinct properties and cannot be replicated or replaced. Each of the tokens holds metadata that includes details about the item it represents like its creator, creation date, and a unique identifier.
Over the past few years, NFTs have gained immense popularity and transcended the boundaries of traditional finance to permeate numerous economic sectors.
## How do NFTs work?
Blockchain is a decentralized digital ledger that stores all the transactions in a chain of computers. NFTs are built across a network of computers that helps ensure the authenticity, ownership, and provenance of each token. We can mostly see NFTs on Ethereum where smart contracts are used to facilitate transactions. Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement written into the code itself. These contracts automate the minting process, ownership transfer, and transaction records on the blockchain.
## What is NFT Minting?
NFT minting is a process of creating and issuing a new token. The process involves creating a unique digital asset and tokenizing it on a blockchain for transparency and authenticity of the item. In today’s date, most people prefer Ethereum for minting since it is widely accepted and also because it provides vigorous smart contracts. Other blockchain platforms like Tezos also support NFT minting.
Metadata containing the information about the digital item is attached to the token when the NFT is being minted. There are some token standards on Ethereum ERC-721 and ERC-1155 based on which the NFT minting can be done. The standard ERC-721 represents a single digital asset that is unique and indivisible and ERC-1155 represents multiple copies of an item or a collection of multiple items.
Minting an NFT also involves gas fees that can vary across network congestion and the complexity of the smart contract. These fees are only transaction fees used to compensate miners for validating and processing transactions on the network. While you are minting NFTs, you can have the option to embed royalty mechanisms into the smart contracts governing your NFTs so you can earn a percentage of the sale price each time the NFT is sold or transferred to a new owner in the secondary market. After completing the process, you can list your tokens for sale on various NFT marketplaces like OpenSea, Rarible, SuperRare, etc.
Finally, you should be aware of legal and copyright implications during the process if the asset holds any copyrighted materials or if there are disputes over ownership rights.

## Step-by-step guide to the minting process
Here is a detailed guide to the minting process. We will deploy our smart contract on the Ethereum Sepolia Testnet. To get started, you need to install the MetaMask browser extension and some test ETH from QuickNode Multi-Chain Faucet. You need to connect the wallet and if you have 0.001ETH on the Mainnet, you can use the EVN faucets. Let’s see the steps one by one.
- Open the terminal and start an IPFS repo
`ipfs init`
- Open a separate terminal and start an IPFS daemon
`ipfs daemon`
- Go back to the first terminal and add the image there with the .png file extension
`ipfs add image.png`
- Copy the has that starts with Qm and add `https://ipfs.io/ipfs`. It will look something like `https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmPEVVUjuRi14T71sDttOzG4aodg`
- Create a JSON file with the name `nft.json` and save it in the same directory as the image in step 3
```
{
“name”: NFT Image”’
“description”: “This image shows the nature of NFT.”
“image”: “https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmPEVVUJURI14T71sDttOzG4aodg”
}
```
- Add the JSON file
`ipfs add nft.json`
- Take the hash with Qm and prefix it with `https://ipfs.io/ipfs`. It will then look like `https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmIFnTguOpT51Bpahepn7BYU` This URL will now be used to mint our NFT.
- We will use OpenZeppelin ERC-721 contract for NFT creation and we do not need to write the whole interface but we can import the library contract and use its functions. Open Ethereum Remix IDE to create a Solidity file named `Token.sol` and paste this code into the script:
```
//SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
//pragma solidity ^0.8.20;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/ERC721.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/extensions/ERC721URIStorage.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/extensions/ERC712Burnable.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/access/Ownable.sol”;
contract myToken is ERC721, ERC721URIStorage, ERC721Burnable, Ownable {
constructor(address initialOwner)
ERC721(“MyToken”, “MTK”)
Ownable(initialOwner)
{}
function safeMint(address to, uint256 tokenID, string memory uri)
public
onlyOwner
{
_safeMint(to, tokenID);
_setTokenURI(tokenID, uri);
}
// overrides required by Solidity
function tokenURI(uint256 tokenID)
public
view
override(ERC721, ERC721URIStorage)
returns (string memory)
{
Return super.tokenURI(tokenID);
}
function supportsInterface(bytes4 interfaceID)
public
view
override(ERC721, ERC721URIStorage)
returns (bool)
{
Return super.supportsInterface(intergaceID);
}
}
```
- Now, use the OpenZeppelin ERC-721 contract and import the library contract to use its functions.
- Get to Ethereum Remix IDE to create a new Solidity file with the new token name like — `NewToken.sol`
- Prepare your Solidity script
```
//SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.20;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/ERC721.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/extensions/ERC721URIStorage.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/token/ERC721/extensions/ERC721Burnble.sol”;
import “@openzeppelin/contracts@5.0.0/access/ownable.sol”;
contract MyToken is ERC721, ERC721URIStorage, ERC721Burnable, Ownable {
constructor(address initialOwner)
ERC721(“NewToken”,”MTK”)
Ownable(initialOwner)
{}
Function safeMint(address to, uint256 tokenId, string memory uri)
Public
onlyOwner
{
_safeMint(to, tokenID);
_setToeknURI(tokenID, uri);
}
// overrides required by Solidity
function tokenURI(uint256 tokenID)

```
- This code will now create a custom ERC721 token contract named NewToken so we as the contract owners can mint new tokens with metadata URIs and the support for the necessary interfaces defined by the ERC721 standard.
- You now need to customize the contract with your details for a more personalized experience. You can update the token name with the line
`ERC721(“NewToken”,”MTK”)`
- After the completion, you can compile the smart contract and deploy it with the Injected Provider before pasting your wallet address into the box just near the Deploy button to define the `initialOwner` inside the constructor function.
- You need to click Deploy on Remix.IDE
- Select the appropriate contract under the contract tab to avoid an error message before deployment.
- Confirm the transaction in the MetaMask wallet and then go to the Deployed Contracts section in the IDE and see the functions/methods.
- Check the safeMint function and add your wallet address in the **_to** field.
- Under the safeMint function, enter a big number value in the **_tokenId** field and it is usually better to use “1” as it represents the first token.
- Input the URI of the previously prepared JSON file in the **_uri** field.
- Click on Transact and confirm the transaction from MetaMask.
- You have your NFT on the Sepolia chain. Check the metadata with tokenId.
## Enabling Widespread NFT Minting
There are many aspects of the concept where you can try to create tokens that are more accessible and user-friendly for the creators and users. Let’s see them one by one in different parts.
### 1. Enabling Widespread NFT Minting to simplify the process
#### a. User-friendly Interfaces
With the creation of NFT minting platforms that are both intuitive and easy to navigate, even users with no prior blockchain experience can have no trouble using them. Some of the interface’s features include drag-and-drop interfaces, clear instructions, and pre-built templates.
#### b. Wallet Integration
Integrating crypto wallets directly into the minting platform can eliminate the need for users to manage private keys or transfer funds between wallets.
#### c. Fiat on-ramps
Next, allowing users to pay for minting fees with traditional currency or fiat using credit cards or debit cards can help you remove the barrier for those who are not comfortable using cryptocurrency.
### 2. Enabling Widespread NFT Minting to reduce costs
#### a. Layer 2 solutions
We can use Layer 2 scaling solutions on top of blockchains so the gas fees associated with minting NFTs can be reduced. With these layer 2 solutions, we can handle transactions off the main blockchain, making them faster and cheaper.
#### b. Alternative blockchains
Moreover, we can explore all alternative blockchains that were designed for NFTs with lower transaction fees than Ethereum like Tezos and Solana.
### 3. Enabling Widespread NFT Minting to Encourage Creators
#### a. Royalties
You can also build royalty structures into the minting process so the creators can earn a percentage of every future sale of their NFT. Statistically, it has been shown that this incentivizes creators to participate in the NFT ecosystem.
#### b. Community Building
Integrating features that creators can use to connect their audience and build communities around their NFTs can go beyond for the long term. This means we need to have forums, chat rooms, and exclusive content for NFT holders.
### 4. Enabling Widespread NFT Minting for Education and Awareness
#### a. Educational Resources
Finally, we can hold clear and concise educational resources that will explain the definition and potential use cases of NFT alongside the minting process. You can upload regular blogs, tutorials, and video guides within the resources.
#### b. Highlighting Success Stories
You can also showcase your successful NFT projects and creators can inspire others to participate and demonstrate the potential benefits of NFTs.
## Potential Drawbacks of Enabling Widespread NFT Minting
There are some potential drawbacks to the widespread adoption.
- #### Environment Impact
The energy consumption of some blockchains used in NFTs can be significant and this raises concerns for the environmental impact. We can, however, look for solutions to address this concern.
- #### Market Volatility
Since the NFT market is still relatively new and volatile, investors need to be aware of the risks involved. This way the decision will be informed and educated.
## Conclusion
The bottom line is that widespread NFT minting brings immense potential to empower creators, open new avenues for ownership, and fuel innovation across various industries. As we move forward, prioritizing education, fostering collaboration, and developing responsible practices, can be the key to ensuring that widespread NFT minting fosters a thriving digital future.

## JavaScript Execution Context - Internal Working of JS
### In Simple Terms
In simple terms when you run a JavaScript program, the whole program runs inside a container or box, and remember this:
> "Everything in JavaScript happens inside an Execution Content"
Look at the diagram again! Yes, execution context in javascript has two components: memory; and code component.
Let's understand both components and then we can at last we will combine all these pieces and we will be able to understand JavaScript Execution Context.

**Memory Component**
This is the section where all the variables and functions we declare in our program are stored. These variables are stored as key-value pairs i.e., `key: value`. This memory component is also known as the variable environment
**Code Component**
This is the section where the codes are executed line by line (one line at a time). There is a fancy name for it **Thread of Execution**
### Phases of the JavaScript Execution Context
When you execute a `JS` code, it goes through 2 phases in order:
> These are not official terminology, I am using them to make you understand Execution Context In JavaScript.
1. **Scanning Phase**: In this phase, the `JS` engine creates the container that we discussed earlier (Execution Context). It allocates memory for the variables and functions in the memory component. The variables are assigned the value of `undefined` and the functions are directly copied from the code to the memory component.
2. **Execution phase**: In this phase, the magic happens and the `JS` engine executes the code one line at a time. You remember in the scanning phase it assigns the value of `undefined` to the variables, and in the execution phase the `undefined` is replaced with the value that is declared in our code.
Let's understand with the help of a simple program:
```js
let a = 10;
function addOne(num) {
return num + 1;
}
```
In the scanning phase:

In the execution phase:
That `undefined` is replaced with the actual value, which we assign in our code `10`.
This as a whole is known as the Execution Context In JavaScript.
I hope you understand it clearly, but if not then below is a real-life example that will help you understand it even more!
### JavaScript Execution Context With Real Life Example
####Imagine You're at a Restaurant
Think of `JS` as a restaurant, where different chefs (functions) are preparing meals (executing code).
The **Execution Context** is like the kitchen workspace that each chef uses to prepare their meal.
When the restaurant opens, the head chef (JavaScript engine) sets up the Global Execution Context. This is the main kitchen workspace where everything starts.
- Ingredients (variables and functions) that are available to all chefs.
- Utensils (methods and objects) that everyone can use.
- Recipes (global functions) that any chef can follow.
```js
function makeSalad(ingredient) {
var dressing = "Olive Oil";
console.log("Using ingredient: " + ingredient + " with " + dressing);
}
makeSalad("Lettuce");
```
When the function makeSalad("Lettuce") is called, the following happens:
- Creation
- The workspace (Execution Context) is set up.
- Local ingredients (variables and functions) are declared.
- `ingredient` is set to "Lettuce".
- `dressing` is declared but not yet defined.
- Execution Phase:
- Local ingredients are assigned values.
- The function's code runs using these local items.
### Conclusion
- Execution Context (EC) is created by `js` engine whenever a code is run
- EC contains two phases: creation, and execution phase
- When a variable is declared or a function is created, and completely new EC is created inside the global EC.
- The EC is the chef's workspace.
- The Global Execution Context is the main kitchen setup.
- Each Function Execution Context is a new chef's workspace, created and stacked as needed. | bhargablinx |

We will explore Metal Raw Materials Quality Control
Are in truth their aware just how Metal Raw products strategies such as for instance coins, cans, cables, plus structures originated. They have been created from trash metal ores, scrap metals, plus alloys. Their their aware which their training which can be famous founded fact of device meet that might be ended up being methods that are normal regulations to be sure their safety plus effectiveness due to process that is manufacturing we'll explore the essential maxims of metal problems control like being try normal like their professionals, innovation, safeguards, use, solution, quality, plus application.
Top options that come with Metal Raw Materials Quality Control
Metal Raw quality control really actually lets you confirm the recycleables present in steel and monel alloy production upwards being complete of quality, without the defects, impurities, because chemical compounds being harmful. Given that are good means that is genuine can easily be genuine it could likely:

1,881,171 | Using Ecto (without Db) for validating Phoenix form | I had a sharing session for Elixir community in Saigon about how to using Ecto without db for... | 0 | 2024-06-08T07:51:53 | https://dev.to/manhvanvu/using-ecto-without-db-for-validating-phoenix-form-4chp | ecto, liveview, phoenix | I had a sharing session for Elixir community in Saigon about how to using Ecto without db for validating Phoenix form. Now I add this for people who just start to learn Elixir can see what can do with Ecto & Phoenix form.
For save time I just write an example for HTML form in LiveView.
As we known Ecto is very flexible library for Elixir application and people usually use Ecto like:

Actually, we can use only 2 modules are enough for casting & validating form: Ecto Changeset & Schema (you can use only Changeset module but with Schema much more convenience).
For example:
I declare Schema for Candidate module:
```Elixir
defmodule DemoEctoForm.Candidate do
use Ecto.Schema
import Ecto.Changeset
embedded_schema do
field :name, :string
field :bio, :string
end
def changeset(candidate, attrs \\ %{}) do
candidate
|> cast(attrs, [:name, :bio])
|> validate_required([:name])
|> update_change(:name, &String.trim/1)
|> validate_format(:name, ~r/^[a-zA-Z\s]+$/)
|> validate_format(:name, ~r/^\w+(?:\s+\w+){1,5}$/)
|> validate_format(:bio, ~r/^\w+(?:\s+\w+){2,25}$/)
end
end
```
A embedded schema with only 2 fields & a changeset/2 function for casting & validating values from submitted form.
For validating use can see one required field (`:name`) and I add some regex for checking valid fields.
And at LiveView I defined a template:
```Elixir
~H"""
<div class="bg-red-600 text-white rounded-md">
<br>
<.form
id="candidate-form"
:let={f} for={@changeset}
phx-change="validate"
phx-submit="submit"
class="flex flex-col max-w-md mx-auto mt-8"
>
<h1 class="text-4xl font-bold text-center">New Candidate!</h1>
<br>
<.input field={f[:name]} placeholder="Nguyen Van Great" id="name" label="Full Name" />
<br>
<.input field={f[:bio]} placeholder="example: Elixir, Phoenix, Ecto, Hòzô" id="bio" label="Bio"/>
<br>
<.button type="submit">Add Candidate</.button>
<br><br>
</.form>
</div>
"""
```
I passed default changeset from mount event then use directly in form. See `.form` and `.input`
My mount event:
```Elixir
def mount(_params, _session, socket) do
changeset = Candidate.changeset(%Candidate{})
{:ok, assign(socket, changeset: changeset)}
end
```
And add `phx-submit` event to handle submitted form from user:
```Elixir
def handle_event("submit", %{"candidate" => candidate_params}, socket) do
changeset =
%Candidate{}
|> Candidate.changeset(candidate_params)
if changeset.valid? do
data = apply_action!(changeset, :update)
IO.puts "Candidate data: #{inspect(data, [pretty: true, struct: false])}"
Ets.add_candidate(data)
socket =
socket
|> put_flash(:info, "You added a candidate!")
|> redirect(to: ~p"/")
{:noreply, socket}
else
changeset =
%Candidate{}
|> Candidate.changeset(candidate_params)
{:noreply, assign(socket, changeset: changeset)}
end
end
```
I cast data from submitted form to changeset then check if changeset is valid or not. If changeset is invalid I pass again socket for form show errors in browser then user can update data.
Now, I have a completed form!
Actually, I have added an other tips for user can continue fill to the form in another device/browser or in case if LiveView is crashed by save state of form to `ets` table in my project.

HTML or HyperText Markup Language is the core of the World Wide Web. It manages web content and allows you to create visually and functionally rich web pages. Understanding its history, development, and key components provides insight into how the Internet has become an integral part of modern life.
## Origins and Inception
HTML was created in 1991 by British scientist Tim Berners-Lee from CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). Berners-Lee envisioned a global information system that could link documents in different systems. This type was added to the World Wide Web, and HTML became the language for formatting and displaying information on web pages.
### Key Milestones in HTML Development
1. **HTML 1.0 (1991-1993)**: The first version of HTML included basic elements such as headers, paragraphs, lists, links, and images. It's basic, but provides important functionality for document linking and basic content formatting.
2. **HTML 2.0 (1995)**: This version was an attempt to standardize HTML and included additional features such as the ability to insert forms, tables, and multimedia.
3. **HTML 3.2 (1997)**: Developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), this version improves complex tables, programs, and form controls. It is an important step for better web content.
4. **HTML 4.0 (1997)**: This release introduced the separation of content and presentation by supporting style sheets (CSS). There are also additional tools for scripting, safer mode, and accessibility features.
5. **HTML5 (2014)**: HTML5 revolutionized web development by adding support for multimedia, graphics, and more interactive elements without relying on plugins. Key features include "<canvas>", "<audio>", "<video>" and new form controls. It also introduces the concept of semantic elements such as "<article>", "<section>" and "<nav>" to improve document structure and accessibility.
## Basic components and tags in HTML
HTML documents are structured using different elements, each defined by tags. Here are some key points and objectives:
1. **Basic Structural Notes**:
- `<! DOCTYPE html>`: Declare the document type and the HTML type.
- `<html>`: The root element that contains the entire document.
- "<head>": contains metadata, scripts and styles.
- "<title>": Indicates the title of the document displayed in the browser application.
- "<body>": Contains the body of the HTML document.
2. **Content Organization Notes**:
- "<h1> to <h6>": title, "<h1>" is the top level and "<h6>" is the bottom.
- `<p>`: Paragraph for text content.
- "<ul>", "<ol>" and "<li>": Unsorted list and sorted list elements.
- `<a>`: Links for navigation between documents or sections.
- "<div>" and "<span>": Common containers for grouping content and applying styles.
3. **Media notes and applications**:
- `<img>`: Image place.
- "<audio>" and "<video>": Enter audio and video content.
- "<iframe>": Places another HTML page inside the current page.
4. ** Form Notes **:
- "<form>": Defines a form for user input.
- "<input>", "<textarea>", "button", "<select>" and "<option>": Various display controls to collect user input.
5. **Semantic Notes**:
- "<header>", "<footer>": Defines the header and footer of the section
or page.
- `<nav>`: Show navigation links.

```
## Step 3: Sanctum Configuration
In app/Models/User.php, we added the HasApiTokens class of Sanctum
```php
<?php
namespace App\Models;
// use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use HasFactory, Notifiable, HasApiTokens;
/**
* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* @var array<int, string>
*/
protected $fillable = [
'name',
'email',
'password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.
*
* @var array<int, string>
*/
protected $hidden = [
'password',
'remember_token',
];
/**
* Get the attributes that should be cast.
*
* @return array<string, string>
*/
protected function casts(): array
{
return [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
'password' => 'hashed',
];
}
}
```
## Step 4: Add Blog Migration and Model
Run the following command to add Blog migration and model
```
php artisan make:model Blog -m
```
After that go to database/migrations and you will find the created migration file
```php
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
return new class extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*/
public function up(): void
{
Schema::create('blogs', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('title');
$table->longText('detail');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*/
public function down(): void
{
Schema::dropIfExists('blogs');
}
};
```
Then go to app/Models/Blog.php
```php
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Blog extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $fillable = [
'title', 'detail'
];
}
```
## Step 5: Create Eloquent API Resources
Run the following commands to create Blog API Resources
```
php artisan make:resource BlogResource
```
Then go to app/Http/Resources/BlogResource.php
```php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Resources;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Http\Resources\Json\JsonResource;
class BlogResource extends JsonResource
{
// Transform the resource into an array.
public function toArray(Request $request): array
{
return [
'id' => $this->id,
'title' => $this->title,
'detail' => $this->detail,
'created_at' => $this->created_at->format('d/m/Y'),
'updated_at' => $this->updated_at->format('d/m/Y'),
];
}
}
```
## Step 6: Create Controller Files
Run the following commands to add BaseController & RegisterController & BlogController
```
php artisan make:controller API/BaseController
php artisan make:controller API/RegisterController
php artisan make:controller API/BlogController
```
Then go to app/Http/Controllers/API/BaseController.php and add this code
```php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\API;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class BaseController extends Controller
{
// success response method
public function sendResponse($result, $message)
{
$response = [
'success' => true,
'data' => $result,
'message' => $message,
];
return response()->json($response, 200);
}
// return error response
public function sendError($error, $errorMessages = [], $code = 404)
{
$response = [
'success' => false,
'message' => $error,
];
if(!empty($errorMessages)){
$response['data'] = $errorMessages;
}
return response()->json($response, $code);
}
}
```
Now go to app/Http/Controllers/API/BaseController.php
```php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\API;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Illuminate\Http\JsonResponse;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
class RegisterController extends BaseController
{
// Register api
public function register(Request $request): JsonResponse
{
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required',
'c_password' => 'required|same:password',
]);
if($validator->fails()){
return $this->sendError('Validation Error.', $validator->errors());
}
$input = $request->all();
$input['password'] = bcrypt($input['password']);
$user = User::create($input);
$success['token'] = $user->createToken('MyApp')->plainTextToken;
$success['name'] = $user->name;
return $this->sendResponse($success, 'User register successfully.');
}
// Login api
public function login(Request $request): JsonResponse
{
if(Auth::attempt(['email' => $request->email, 'password' => $request->password])){
$user = Auth::user();
$success['token'] = $user->createToken('MyApp')->plainTextToken;
$success['name'] = $user->name;
return $this->sendResponse($success, 'User login successfully.');
}
else{
return $this->sendError('Unauthorised.', ['error'=>'Unauthorised']);
}
}
}
```
Finally, go to app/Http/Controllers/API/BlogController.php
```php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\API;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Controllers\API\BaseController;
use App\Models\Blog;
use App\Http\Resources\BlogResource;
use Illuminate\Http\JsonResponse;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
class BlogController extends BaseController
{
// Display a listing of the resource.
public function index(): JsonResponse
{
$blogs = Blog::all();
return $this->sendResponse(BlogResource::collection($blogs), 'Blogs retrieved successfully.');
}
// Store a newly created resource in storage.
public function store(Request $request): JsonResponse
{
$input = $request->all();
$validator = Validator::make($input, [
'title' => 'required',
'detail' => 'required'
]);
if($validator->fails()){
return $this->sendError('Validation Error.', $validator->errors());
}
$blog = Blog::create($input);
return $this->sendResponse(new BlogResource($blog), 'Blog created successfully.');
}
// Display the specified resource.
public function show($id): JsonResponse
{
$blog = Blog::find($id);
if (is_null($blog)) {
return $this->sendError('Blog not found.');
}
return $this->sendResponse(new BlogResource($blog), 'Blog retrieved successfully.');
}
// Update the specified resource in storage.
public function update(Request $request, Blog $blog): JsonResponse
{
$input = $request->all();
$validator = Validator::make($input, [
'title' => 'required',
'detail' => 'required'
]);
if($validator->fails()){
return $this->sendError('Validation Error.', $validator->errors());
}
$blog->title = $input['title'];
$blog->detail = $input['detail'];
$blog->save();
return $this->sendResponse(new BlogResource($blog), 'Blog updated successfully.');
}
// Remove the specified resource from storage.
public function destroy(Blog $blog): JsonResponse
{
$blog->delete();
return $this->sendResponse([], 'Blog deleted successfully.');
}
}
```
## Step 7: Create API Routes
In this step we will create API routes for login, register, and blogs.
Go to routes/api.php
```php
<?php
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\API\RegisterController;
use App\Http\Controllers\API\BlogController;
Route::controller(RegisterController::class)->group(function(){
Route::post('register', 'register')->name('register');
Route::post('login', 'login')->name('login');
});
Route::middleware('auth:sanctum')->group( function () {
Route::apiResource('blogs', BlogController::class);
Route::get('user', function (Request $request) {
return $request->user();
})->name('user');
});
```
## Step 8: Run Laravel App
Run the database migrations (Set the database connection in .env before migrating)
```
php artisan serve
```
Start the local development server
```
php artisan serve
```
## Step 9: Check following API
Now, go to your Postman to check api
Make sure in the details API, we will use the following headers as listed below
```json
'headers' => [
'Accept' => 'application/json',
'Authorization' => 'Bearer '.$accessToken,
]
```
Now you can simply run the above listed URLs as shown in the screenshot below:

1,881,149 | unwrap_or_else in Rust | The unwrap_or_else method is used as an Option or Result type. Let's see an example for both. ... | 0 | 2024-06-08T07:21:53 | https://dev.to/francescoxx/unwraporelse-in-rust-2ogh | rust, programming, tutorial, codenewbie | The **unwrap_or_else** method is used as an **Option** or **Result** type.
Let's see an example for both.
___
## unwrap_or_else on an Option
For **Option**, the **unwrap_or_else** method is used to provide a fallback value if the **Option** is None**
```rust
fn main() {
let some_value: Option<i32> = Some(10);
let none_value: Option<i32> = None;
// Using unwrap_or_else on an Option
let result_some = some_value.unwrap_or_else(|| {
println!("some_value was None, using default value.");
0 // Default value
});
let result_none = none_value.unwrap_or_else(|| {
println!("none_value was None, using default value.");
0 // Default value
});
println!("Result when Option is Some: {}", result_some);
println!("Result when Option is None: {}", result_none);
}
```
Output:
```
none_value was None, using default value.
Result when Option is Some: 10
Result when Option is None: 0
```
Explanation:
In this example, we have two **Option** variables, **some_value** and **none_value**. The **some_value** is **Some(10)** and the **none_value** is **None**.
The **unwrap_or_else** method is used on both **Option** variables. The closure passed to **unwrap_or_else** is only called when the **Option** is **None**. In this case, the closure prints a message and returns a default value of 0.
___
## unwrap_or_else on a Result
For **Result**, the **unwrap_or_else** method is used to provide a fallback value if the **Result** is an **Err**.
```rust
fn main() {
let ok_result: Result<i32, &str> = Ok(10);
let err_result: Result<i32, &str> = Err("An error occurred");
// Using unwrap_or_else on a Result
let result_ok = ok_result.unwrap_or_else(|err| {
println!("ok_result was Err: {}, using default value.", err);
0 // Default value
});
let result_err = err_result.unwrap_or_else(|err| {
println!("err_result was Err: {}, using default value.", err);
0 // Default value
});
println!("Result when Result is Ok: {}", result_ok);
println!("Result when Result is Err: {}", result_err);
}
```
Output:
```
Error: Error message
Result when Result is Ok: 10
Result when Result is Err: 0
```
Explanation:
In this example, we have two **Result** variables, **ok_result** and **err_result**. The **ok_result** is **Ok(10)** and the **err_result** is **Err("An error occurred")**.
The **unwrap_or_else** method is used on both **Result** variables. The closure passed to **unwrap_or_else** is only called when the **Result** is **Err**. In this case, the closure prints a message and returns a default value of 0.
___
## Conclusion
In both examples, the **unwrap_or_else** method is used to provide a default value when the **Option** or **Result** is **None** or **Err** respectively.
The **unwrap_or_else** method takes a closure that returns the default value. The closure is only called when the **Option** is **None** or the **Result** is **Err**.

It refers to the process... | 27,558 | 2024-06-08T07:21:45 | https://dev.to/imabhinavdev/hoisting-wasnt-that-tough-4nbg | webdev, javascript, beginners, tutorial | Hoisting is a unique behavior in JavaScript that often confuses beginners. It refers to the process where variable and function declarations are moved to the top of their containing scope during the compile phase. However, this is an oversimplified explanation. To fully grasp hoisting, we need to dive deeper into the JavaScript engine, understanding concepts such as the execution context, memory creation phase, and code execution phase.
In this blog, we'll explore hoisting in great detail, breaking down each phase and understanding how JavaScript handles variable and function declarations behind the scenes.
## Execution Context
To understand hoisting, we need to start with the concept of the execution context. The execution context is an abstract concept that holds information about the environment within which the current code is being executed. Each execution context has two phases:
1. **Memory Creation Phase**: During this phase, the JavaScript engine sets up the environment for the code execution. It allocates memory for variables and functions.
2. **Code Execution Phase**: During this phase, the code is actually executed line by line.
Every JavaScript program runs inside an execution context. There are three types of execution contexts:
1. **Global Execution Context (GEC)**: This is the default context in which your code starts execution.
2. **Function Execution Context (FEC)**: Each time a function is invoked, a new function execution context is created.
3. **Eval Execution Context**: Code executed inside an `eval` function has its own execution context.
### Global Execution Context
The Global Execution Context is created when the JavaScript file is initially loaded. It contains:
- The Global Object (`window` in browsers, `global` in Node.js)
- The `this` keyword, which refers to the Global Object in the global context.
### Function Execution Context
Every time a function is called, a new Function Execution Context is created. This context contains:
- A new scope chain
- The `this` value specific to the function
- Variable Object (VO)
## Memory Creation Phase
During the memory creation phase, the JavaScript engine scans through the entire code and allocates memory for all variables and function declarations. It sets up the execution environment and prepares for the code execution phase.
### Variables in Memory Creation Phase
For variables declared using `var`, memory is allocated, and they are initialized with `undefined`. This is crucial to understand why accessing a `var` variable before its declaration does not throw a ReferenceError but returns `undefined`.
### Functions in Memory Creation Phase
Function declarations are fully hoisted. This means that the entire function definition is stored in memory during the memory creation phase. As a result, you can call a function before its declaration in the code.
### Example
Consider the following code:
```javascript
console.log(a); // undefined
var a = 10;
console.log(a); // 10
foo(); // "Hello, World!"
function foo() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
}
```
During the memory creation phase:
- `a` is allocated memory and initialized with `undefined`.
- `foo` is allocated memory, and the function definition is stored.
## Code Execution Phase
Once the memory creation phase is complete, the JavaScript engine starts executing the code line by line. During this phase, the actual values are assigned to variables, and functions are executed.
Continuing from the previous example:
```javascript
console.log(a); // undefined
var a = 10;
console.log(a); // 10
foo(); // "Hello, World!"
function foo() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
}
```
- `console.log(a);` logs `undefined` because `a` was initialized with `undefined` during the memory creation phase.
- `var a = 10;` assigns the value `10` to `a`.
- `console.log(a);` logs `10`.
- `foo();` executes the function `foo`, which logs `"Hello, World!"`.
## Hoisting in Variables
### `var` Hoisting
Variables declared with `var` are hoisted to the top of their function or global scope. They are initialized with `undefined` during the memory creation phase.
```javascript
console.log(a); // undefined
var a = 5;
console.log(a); // 5
```
Here, `a` is hoisted and initialized with `undefined`. Hence, the first `console.log` outputs `undefined`, and the second outputs `5`.
### `let` and `const` Hoisting
Variables declared with `let` and `const` are also hoisted but are not initialized. They remain in a "temporal dead zone" (TDZ) from the start of the block until the declaration is encountered. Accessing them before their declaration results in a ReferenceError.
```javascript
console.log(b); // ReferenceError: Cannot access 'b' before initialization
let b = 10;
```
Here, `b` is hoisted but not initialized. Trying to access it before its declaration throws a ReferenceError.
## Hoisting in Functions
Function declarations are hoisted entirely. This means both the function name and its body are moved to the top of the scope.
```javascript
foo(); // "Hello, World!"
function foo() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
}
```
### Function Expressions
Function expressions are not hoisted in the same way. Only the variable declaration is hoisted, not the assignment.
```javascript
bar(); // TypeError: bar is not a function
var bar = function() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
};
```
Here, `bar` is hoisted and initialized with `undefined`. Calling it before assignment results in a TypeError.
## Hoisting with `let` and `const`
`let` and `const` declarations are hoisted to the top of their block scope but are not initialized. They are in the TDZ until the actual declaration is encountered in the code.
```javascript
{
console.log(c); // ReferenceError: Cannot access 'c' before initialization
let c = 20;
}
```
Here, `c` is hoisted to the top of the block but remains uninitialized, resulting in a ReferenceError if accessed before declaration.
## Practical Examples
### Example 1: Variable Hoisting
```javascript
console.log(x); // undefined
var x = 10;
console.log(x); // 10
```
### Example 2: Function Hoisting
```javascript
greet(); // "Hello!"
function greet() {
console.log("Hello!");
}
```
### Example 3: `let` and `const` Hoisting
```javascript
console.log(y); // ReferenceError
let y = 5;
const z = 10;
console.log(z); // 10
```
### Example 4: Function Expression Hoisting
```javascript
console.log(sayHello); // undefined
var sayHello = function() {
console.log("Hi!");
};
sayHello(); // "Hi!"
```
## Checking Hoisting in the Browser
To observe hoisting behavior, you can use the browser's developer tools. Here's how:
1. Open your browser's Developer Tools (usually by right-clicking on the page and selecting "Inspect" or pressing F12).
2. Go to the "Console" tab.
3. Type in or paste your JavaScript code and press Enter.
### Example
```javascript
console.log(a); // undefined
var a = 10;
console.log(a); // 10
foo(); // "Hello, World!"
function foo() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
}
```
Observe the outputs in the console to see how hoisting works.
## Conclusion
Hoisting is a fundamental concept in JavaScript that affects how variables and functions are initialized and accessed. Understanding the memory creation and code execution phases is crucial to comprehending how hoisting works. Remember:
- `var` declarations are hoisted and initialized with `undefined`.
- Function declarations are hoisted entirely.
- `let` and `const` declarations are hoisted but not initialized, leading to the Temporal Dead Zone (TDZ).
By mastering these concepts, you can write more predictable and bug-free JavaScript code. Happy coding! | imabhinavdev |

7. Best Practices for User and Permission Management
8. Conclusion
## 1. Introduction to User Management
Linux is a multi-user operating system, meaning multiple users can operate on the same system concurrently. Managing these users and their permissions is critical to ensuring system security and efficiency. User management involves creating, modifying, and deleting user accounts, while permission management involves setting the correct access rights to files and directories.
## 2. Creating and Managing Users
### Creating Users
To create a new user in Linux, you use the `useradd` command. This command creates a new user account and sets up the user’s home directory.
```bash
sudo useradd -m newuser
```
The `-m` option creates a home directory for the user.
To set a password for the new user, use the `passwd` command:
```bash
sudo passwd newuser
```
You will be prompted to enter and confirm the new password.
### Modifying Users
You can modify user accounts using the `usermod` command. For example, to change a user’s login name:
```bash
sudo usermod -l newlogin oldlogin
```
To change a user’s home directory:
```bash
sudo usermod -d /new/home/directory -m username
```
The `-d` option specifies the new home directory, and the `-m` option moves the contents from the old directory to the new one.
### Deleting Users
To delete a user, use the `userdel` command:
```bash
sudo userdel username
```
To remove the user’s home directory as well:
```bash
sudo userdel -r username
```
## 3. Group Management
Groups allow you to manage multiple users with similar permissions collectively.
### Creating Groups
To create a new group, use the `groupadd` command:
```bash
sudo groupadd newgroup
```
### Modifying Groups
To change a group name, use the `groupmod` command:
```bash
sudo groupmod -n newgroupname oldgroupname
```
### Adding Users to Groups
To add a user to a group, use the `usermod` command with the `-aG` option:
```bash
sudo usermod -aG groupname username
```
The `-a` option appends the user to the supplementary group(s), and the `-G` option specifies the group.
To verify group membership:
```bash
groups username
```
## 4. Understanding Linux File Permissions
Linux file permissions determine who can read, write, or execute a file. These permissions are divided into three categories: owner, group, and others.
### Basic Permissions
- **Read (r)**: Permission to read the file or directory.
- **Write (w)**: Permission to write to or modify the file or directory.
- **Execute (x)**: Permission to execute the file or access the directory.
### Changing Permissions
Permissions are represented by a set of three characters: `r`, `w`, and `x`, and are grouped in threes for the owner, group, and others.
To view file permissions, use the `ls -l` command:
```bash
ls -l
```
The output will look something like this:
```bash
-rwxr-xr--
```
### Special Permissions
- **Setuid**: Allows a user to run an executable with the file owner's permissions.
- **Setgid**: Allows a user to run an executable with the file group's permissions.
- **Sticky Bit**: Restricts file deletion within a directory to the file owner.
## 5. Managing File Permissions
### chmod Command
The `chmod` command is used to change file permissions. You can use symbolic or numeric modes to set permissions.
#### Symbolic Mode
```bash
chmod u+rwx,g+rx,o+r filename
```
This command grants the owner read, write, and execute permissions, the group read and execute permissions, and others read permission.
#### Numeric Mode
Permissions can also be set using a three-digit octal number, where each digit represents the owner, group, and others.
```bash
chmod 755 filename
```
This command grants read, write, and execute permissions to the owner (7), and read and execute permissions to the group (5) and others (5).
### chown and chgrp Commands
The `chown` command changes the ownership of a file or directory:
```bash
sudo chown newowner filename
```
The `chgrp` command changes the group ownership of a file or directory:
```bash
sudo chgrp newgroup filename
```
## 6. Advanced Permission Management
### Access Control Lists (ACLs)
ACLs provide a more flexible permission mechanism by allowing you to set permissions for specific users or groups.
#### Setting ACLs
To set an ACL, use the `setfacl` command:
```bash
setfacl -m u:username:rwx filename
```
This command grants the user `username` read, write, and execute permissions on `filename`.
#### Viewing ACLs
To view the ACL of a file, use the `getfacl` command:
```bash
getfacl filename
```
### Default ACLs
Default ACLs are applied automatically to new files and directories created within a directory.
#### Setting Default ACLs
```bash
setfacl -d -m u:username:rwx directory
```
This command sets a default ACL for the user `username` on `directory`.
## 7. Best Practices for User and Permission Management
1. **Use Groups Wisely**: Group users with similar permissions to simplify management.
2. **Least Privilege Principle**: Grant the minimum permissions necessary for users to perform their tasks.
3. **Regular Audits**: Periodically review user accounts and permissions to ensure they are still appropriate.
4. **Use Strong Password Policies**: Enforce strong passwords and regular password changes.
5. **Monitor User Activity**: Use logging and monitoring tools to track user activity and detect suspicious behavior.
6. **Implement Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)**: Add an extra layer of security by requiring 2FA for user accounts.
7. **Backup Important Data**: Regularly backup important data and configuration files to prevent data loss.
## 8. Conclusion
User and permission management are crucial aspects of Linux system administration. By understanding and implementing the concepts covered in this article, you can ensure your system is secure and operates efficiently. Regular monitoring, auditing, and adhering to best practices will help you maintain a robust and secure Linux environment.
Below is a summary of the commands and concepts covered in this article, with some additional code snippets for your reference.

Introduction:
Are you planning to upgrade your car’s wheels but confused between Alloy Wheels and Cast Wheels? Both are great choices, but it’s important to know the advantages, differences, and how to use them. We’ll help you make an choice informed.
Advantages of Alloy Wheels:
Alloy wheels are made up of a blend of metals, such as aluminum, magnesium, and nickel. The advantage that's primary of wheels is they are lightweight, which translates to better gas mileage, reduced wear and tear on the suspension system, and improved handling. Additionally, alloy wheels dissipate heat faster than cast wheels, which is beneficial for high-performance cars.
Innovation in Alloy Wheels:
In recent years, alloy wheels have seen a lot complete of. Technology has allowed for the creation of new alloys provide improved strength and durability over standard aluminum variants. These innovations include new alloys reinforced with carbon fiber or materials ceramic.
Safety Benefits of Alloy Wheels:
One of the most significant advantages of alloy wheels are the safety added provide. They are less prone to cracks and breakage than cast wheels. This is due to their strength superior makes them more resistant to bending and impact damage. Additionally, alloy wheels are often come with a better ventilation design helps to improve brake cooling, therefore reducing the risk of brake failure.
How to Choose and Use Alloy Wheels:
When selecting alloy wheels for your vehicle, you should consider factors such as the wheel size, thickness, and design. Wheels size is should be compatible with tire size for performance and safety. Thickness will depend on the use and weight of your vehicle and design for aesthetics and style. It’s also important to note the maintenance of alloy wheels relatively simple. They require regular cleaning with mild soap and water, and cleaners avoiding abrasive will scratch the surface.
Advantages of Cast Wheels:
Cast wheels are made from a mold single of metal, usually steel or aluminum. They are considered more affordable than alloy wheels and more readily available. The molding process allows for more intricate and designs complex might not be effective or possible with alloy wheels.
Quality and Service of Cast Wheels:
Cast wheels have a tendency to become much a lot extra resilient compared to conventional steel wheels, creating all of them perfect for vehicles as well as SUVs need much larger tons. Among the advantages of cast wheels they have a tendency to become much a lot extra inexpensive. Nevertheless, it is actually necessary to guarantee the high top premium of designate tires prior to buying, because low-grade ones might breather and trigger security problems. It is likewise essential to routinely preserve your cast wheels, turning all of them and maintaining all of them clean.
How to Choose and Use Cast Wheels:
When choosing cast, you ought to think about elements like design, style, as well as compatibility along with your vehicle's value as well as dimension. Maintenance is easy, you just require to always keep all of them examine and cleanse all of them routinely for any type of indications of damages.
Application of Alloy and Cast Wheels:
Each designate as well as alloy tires are actually fantastic choices for updating a wheels vehicle's. Aluminum alloy wheels are actually favored for higher-end as well as efficiency vehicles and have a tendency to become much a lot extra costly. Designate tires appropriate for vehicles, SUVs, and daily cars don't need tires high-performance. Eventually, the choice comes down for your budget plan and preference.

1,880,463 | Common Performance Bottlenecks in React | React is a powerful library for building user interfaces, but like any technology, it can run into... | 0 | 2024-06-08T07:15:57 | https://dev.to/ak_23/common-performance-bottlenecks-in-react-3cji | react, programming, performance, webdev | React is a powerful library for building user interfaces, but like any technology, it can run into performance bottlenecks. Identifying and resolving these issues can make a significant difference in the efficiency and user experience of your application. Here are some common performance bottlenecks in React and how to address them:
#### 1. **Unnecessary Re-renders**
**Problem:** React components re-render frequently, even when not needed, which can slow down the application.
**Solution:** Use the following strategies to avoid unnecessary re-renders:
- **React.memo:** This higher-order component (HOC) prevents functional components from re-rendering if their props haven't changed.
- **useMemo:** Memoize expensive calculations to prevent them from being recalculated on every render.
- **useCallback:** Memoize callback functions to avoid passing new instances to child components on every render.
```jsx
import React, { memo, useCallback, useMemo } from 'react';
const MyComponent = memo(({ value, onClick }) => {
return <div onClick={onClick}>{value}</div>;
});
const ParentComponent = () => {
const value = useMemo(() => calculateValue(), []);
const handleClick = useCallback(() => {
// handle click
}, []);
return <MyComponent value={value} onClick={handleClick} />;
};
```
#### 2. **Large Component Trees**
**Problem:** Complex and deeply nested component trees can slow down rendering.
**Solution:** Break down large components into smaller, more manageable pieces and use code splitting to load only the necessary parts of the application.
- **Code Splitting:** Use dynamic `import()` to split code into smaller bundles that are loaded on demand.
```jsx
import React, { Suspense } from 'react';
const LazyComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./LazyComponent'));
function App() {
return (
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
);
}
```
#### 3. **Expensive Calculations in Render**
**Problem:** Performing heavy calculations directly in the render method can significantly degrade performance.
**Solution:** Memoize expensive calculations using `useMemo` to prevent them from being recalculated on every render.
```jsx
import React, { useMemo } from 'react';
const MyComponent = ({ items }) => {
const sortedItems = useMemo(() => {
return items.sort((a, b) => a.value - b.value);
}, [items]);
return (
<ul>
{sortedItems.map(item => (
<li key={item.id}>{item.name}</li>
))}
</ul>
);
};
```
[Understanding React.memo: Optimizing Your React Applications](https://dev.to/amit_k_812b560fb293c72152/understanding-reactmemo-optimizing-your-react-applications-436a)
#### 4. **Inefficient List Rendering**
**Problem:** Rendering long lists without optimization can cause significant performance issues.
**Solution:** Use virtualization techniques to render only the visible part of the list, improving performance.
- **React Virtualized or React Window:** These libraries help in rendering large lists efficiently.
```jsx
import { FixedSizeList as List } from 'react-window';
const MyList = ({ items }) => (
<List
height={500}
itemCount={items.length}
itemSize={35}
width={300}
>
{({ index, style }) => (
<div style={style}>
{items[index].name}
</div>
)}
</List>
);
```
#### 5. **State Management Issues**
**Problem:** Overusing the state or passing down state through many layers can slow down the app.
**Solution:** Use context and state management libraries wisely to manage state more efficiently.
- **React Context:** Use context sparingly and only for global state that needs to be accessed by many components.
- **State Management Libraries:** Libraries like Redux, Zustand, or MobX can help manage state more effectively. Stay tuned for a detailed post where I will dive deep into each of these libraries, explaining their use cases, benefits, and how to integrate them into your React projects.
```jsx
import React, { createContext, useContext, useState } from 'react';
const MyContext = createContext();
const MyProvider = ({ children }) => {
const [state, setState] = useState(initialState);
return (
<MyContext.Provider value={{ state, setState }}>
{children}
</MyContext.Provider>
);
};
const MyComponent = () => {
const { state, setState } = useContext(MyContext);
return <div>{state.someValue}</div>;
};
```
### Conclusion
Optimizing React applications involves a combination of strategies to minimize unnecessary renders, manage state effectively, and handle large component trees and lists efficiently. By being mindful of these common bottlenecks and applying the appropriate solutions, you can significantly enhance the performance and user experience of your React applications.

1,881,144 | Polling vs. Webhooks: Getting Data in Real-Time | In the world of sharing data between apps and systems, there are two main ways: polling and webhooks.... | 0 | 2024-06-08T07:02:02 | https://dev.to/raksbisht/polling-vs-webhooks-getting-data-in-real-time-543n | polling, webhooks, webdev, tutorial | In the world of sharing data between apps and systems, there are two main ways: polling and webhooks. They both help keep data up to date, but they work in different ways. Let’s look at what they are, how they work, and when to use each.
### Understanding Polling 🔄
**What is Polling?** Polling is like asking someone over and over if they have any news. In the digital world, it means one system keeps asking another for updates.
**How Does it Work?**
1. **Asking for Updates:** The client (like your phone) asks the server (like a website) if there are any updates.
2. **Getting a Response:** The server replies with the updates or says there are none.
3. **Keep Asking:** The client keeps asking at regular intervals, even if there are no updates.
**Pros of Polling:**
* **Easy:** It’s easy to understand and set up, great for beginners.
* **Control:** You decide when to check for updates.
**Cons of Polling:**
* **Uses a Lot of Resources:** It can use up unnecessary resources because it keeps checking, even when there are no updates.
* **Delays:** It takes time to get updates since it checks at regular intervals.
### Unveiling Webhooks 🎣
**What are Webhooks?** Webhooks are like messages that systems send each other when something happens. Instead of asking for updates all the time, the server tells the client when there’s something new.
**How Do They Work?**
1. **Signing Up:** The client tells the server where to send notifications.
2. **Sending Notifications:** When something important happens, the server sends a message to the client right away.
3. **Quick Response:** The client gets the message instantly and can react right away.
**Pros of Webhooks:**
* **Real-Time Updates:** You get updates immediately, reducing delays.
* **Efficient:** It uses fewer resources because it doesn’t keep asking for updates.
* **Event-Driven:** It’s built around events, making the system more responsive.
**Cons of Webhooks:**
* **A Bit Complicated:** It’s a bit more complicated to set up than polling, especially handling errors and security.
* **Security Issues:** Exposing an endpoint for webhooks can raise security concerns.
### Choosing the Right Approach 🤔
**When to Use Polling:**
* **Not Many Updates:** If updates are rare or unpredictable, polling might be better.
* **Simple Stuff:** For simple apps where being quick isn’t as important, polling works fine.
**When to Use Webhooks:**
* **Need Updates Fast:** If you need updates right away, like in messaging apps or live feeds, use webhooks.
* **Built for Events:** If your system works around events, webhooks are the way to go.
**Conclusion:**
Polling and webhooks both help keep systems in sync, but they work differently. Polling is easy and gives you control, while webhooks get you updates right away and use fewer resources. Pick the one that fits your app’s needs best, whether you like the persistent checking of polling or the quick messages of webhooks.

- React o'zi nima?
React bu javascript(dasturlash tilining) kutubxonasi hisoblanadi.Ho'p endi react kutubxonaning xususiyatlarini ko'rib chiqamiz.Birinchi tushunchalarga to'xtalamiz.
- Single Page Aplication => SPA (Ma'nosi SPA tushunchasida bitta html file bo'ladi)
- Multi Page Aplication => MPA (Bir nechta html filedan iborat bo'ladi)
- Ustuvorlik xususiyatlarini o'rganib chiqamiz.
1. SEO => SEO (Search Engine Optimization) nima — bu web-saytlarni qidiruv tizimlari natijalari sahifalarida (SERP) yuqori o'rinlarni egallash uchun optimallashtirish jarayoni. SEO veb-saytning ko'rinishini yaxshilash va organik (to'lanmagan) trafikni oshirishga qaratilgan. SEOning asosiy qismlari quyidagilardan iborat:
Kalit so'zlarni tadqiq qilish (Keyword Research): Maqsadli auditoriya tomonidan qidiruv tizimlarida foydalaniladigan kalit so'zlarni aniqlash.
**On-page SEO:** Web-saytning ichki elementlarini optimallashtirish, bu quyidagilarni o'z ichiga oladi:
**Sarlavha teglari**: Har bir sahifa uchun tegishli va aniq sarlavhalar yaratish.
Meta tavsiflar: Har bir sahifa uchun qisqa va qiziqarli meta tavsiflar yozish.
URL tuzilishi: Oddiy va kalit so'zlarni o'z ichiga olgan URL-larni yaratish.
**Kontent**: Yuqori sifatli va kalit so'zlarga boy kontent yozish.
Ichki havolalar: Sayt ichidagi boshqa sahifalarga havolalar qo'shish.
Off-page SEO: Saytdan tashqaridagi omillarni optimallashtirish, bu quyidagilarni o'z ichiga oladi:
**Backlinks**: Boshqa ishonchli saytlardan havolalar olish.
Ijtimoiy signallar: Ijtimoiy tarmoqlardagi faollik va almashinuvlar.
Texnik SEO: Saytning texnik jihatlarini optimallashtirish, bu quyidagilarni o'z ichiga oladi:
**Sayt tezligi**(Speed): Sahifalarning yuklanish vaqtini qisqartirish.
Mobil moslashuvchanlik: Saytning mobil qurilmalarda yaxshi ko'rinishini ta'minlash.
**Sayt xaritasi** (Sitemap): Qidiruv tizimlariga saytning tuzilishini tushunishga yordam beruvchi sayt xaritasini yaratish.
Robots.txt: Qidiruv tizimlariga qaysi sahifalarni indekslash kerakligini aytadigan faylni sozlash.
Kontent Marketing: Foydali, qiziqarli va tegishli kontent yaratish va tarqatish orqali organik trafikni jalb qilish.
Analitika va kuzatuv: Web-saytning ishlashini o'lchash va optimallashtirish strategiyalarini takomillashtirish uchun analitik vositalardan foydalanish, masalan Google Analytics.
SEO - bu doimiy o'zgarib turadigan soha bo'lib, qidiruv tizimlarining algoritmlari va qoidalari muntazam ravishda yangilanib turadi, shuning uchun SEO strategiyalari ham mos ravishda yangilanib turishi kerak.
2.**Initial load** => (dastlabki yuklash) web-sayt yoki web-ilovani foydalanuvchi tomonidan birinchi marta ochilganda sahifaning yuklanish jarayonini anglatadi. Bu jarayonda browser sahifaning barcha zarur elementlarini, jumladan HTML, CSS, JavaScript fayllarini, rasmlar, shriftlar va boshqa resurslarni yuklaydi.
Dastlabki yuklash vaqti foydalanuvchi tajribasi uchun juda muhimdir, chunki uzoq yuklash vaqti foydalanuvchilarni saytdan chiqib ketishga majbur qilishi mumkin.
3.Web-sayt yoki web-ilovaning "**speed**" (tezligi) uning turli jihatlarida o'lchanadi va foydalanuvchi tajribasi uchun muhim hisoblanadi. Sayt tezligi, odatda, sahifa yuklanish vaqti, foydalanuvchi bilan o'zaro ta'sir qilishi va umumiy ishlash qobiliyatiga ishora qiladi.
4.**Server** — bu kompyuter yoki dasturiy ta'minot tizimi bo'lib, u tarmoq orqali boshqa kompyuterlarga (mijozlarga) xizmat ko'rsatadi. Serverlar turli xizmatlar va resurslarni taqdim etadi, masalan, veb-sahifalar, elektron pochta, ma'lumotlar bazalari va fayllar. Serverlar odatda kuchli apparat va dasturiy ta'minotdan iborat bo'lib, tarmoqqa ulanishda yuqori ishonchlilik va unumdorlikni ta'minlaydi.
**Server turlari:**
Web server: Veb-sahifalarni yetkazib berish uchun mas'ul bo'lgan server. Mashhur web serverlar Apache, Nginx va Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) kiradi.
Database server: Ma'lumotlar bazasini boshqarish tizimlarini (DBMS) ishga tushiradi va ma'lumotlarni saqlaydi, boshqaradi va ularga kirish imkoniyatini ta'minlaydi. Misollar: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database.
File server: Foydalanuvchilar va tizimlar orasida fayllarni saqlash va almashish imkoniyatini beradi.

**Real DOM vs Virtual DOM**
**Real DOM**
1.Hujjatning har bir elementi darxt sifatida(nodes) sifatida ifodalasak. Daraxtning yuqori darajasi (root) odatda <html> tegi bo'ladi, va barcha boshqa elementlar shu tegning ostida joylashadi.
2.Elementlarni manipulyatsiya qilish: JavaScript yordamida Real DOMdagi elementlarni o'qish, o'zgartirish, qo'shish va olib tashlash mumkin. Bu getElementById, querySelector, appendChild, removeChild, setAttribute kabi DOM API funksiyalari yordamida amalga oshiriladi.
3.Performans muammolari: Real DOM bilan ishlashda har bir o'zgarish to'g'ridan-to'g'ri brauzerda qayta chizilishiga olib keladi. Bu katta va murakkab hujjatlar uchun sekin ishlashiga sabab bo'lishi mumkin, chunki har bir kichik o'zgarish ham butun hujjatni qayta ko'rib chiqishni talab qiladi.
**Virtual Dom**
Virtual DOM (VDOM) — bu JavaScript-da yaratilgan va ishlaydigan yengil vaznli ko'chirish (copy) bo'lib, u Real DOM (Document Object Model) ning samaradorligini oshirish uchun ishlatiladi. Virtual DOM, asosan, React kabi zamonaviy JavaScript kutubxonalari va ramkalarida (frameworks) ishlatiladi. Bu texnologiya dastur tezligini oshirish va foydalanuvchi tajribasini yaxshilash maqsadida qo'llaniladi.
1.Virtual DOM yaratish: Dastlab, Virtual DOM hujjatning dastlabki ko'rinishini hosil qiladi. Bu dastlabki renderlash paytida sodir bo'ladi.
2.O'zgarishlarni qayd etish: Hujjatda biror o'zgarish bo'lganda, avval bu o'zgarish Virtual DOMda amalga oshiriladi. Real DOMga darhol tegilmaydi.
3.Dif algoriti: Virtual DOMdagi yangi holat eski holat bilan solishtiriladi. Bu solishtirish jarayonida faqatgina o'zgarishlar qayd etiladi. Bu jarayon dif algoriti deb ataladi.
4..Patch (Yamash): Dif algoritmi yordamida qayd etilgan o'zgarishlar minimal to'plami Real DOMga qo'llanadi. Bu Real DOMni qayta chizish (re-rendering) jarayonini sezilarli darajada optimallashtiradi.
Real Dom va Virtual DOM ning asosiy farqari:

Real DOM va Virtual DOM o'rtasidagi asosiy farq ularning qanday ishlashida va samaradorlikda. Real DOMda har qanday o'zgarish to'g'ridan-to'g'ri amalga oshiriladi, bu esa katta va murakkab hujjatlar uchun sekin ishlashga olib keladi. Virtual DOM esa o'zgarishlarni avval Virtual DOMda amalga oshiradi va faqat minimal o'zgarishlarni Real DOMga qo'llab, samaradorlikni oshiradi. Virtual DOMning bu yondashuvi katta va dinamik veb-ilovalar uchun juda qulay va samarali hisoblanadi.

Endi biz library va frameworklar haiqda gaplashamiz:
Library (kutubxona) va framework nima deydigan bo'lsak.Ularning dasturchiga qanday imkoniyat berishiga va dastur tuzilmasiga qanday ta'sir ko'rsatishi jihatdan ajralib turadi.
- React - library
- Next - framework
- Angular - framework
- Vue - framework
- Nuxt - framework
- Astra - library
**Kutubxona**
_Foydalanish:_ (Usage) Kutubxona funksiyalar, sinflar yoki modullar to'plamini o'z ichiga oladi. Siz kutubxonani kerak bo'lganda chaqirasiz va undan foydalanasiz. Dastur oqimini siz boshqarasiz.
_Boshqaruv:_ (Control) Dastur oqimini siz boshqarasiz. Kutubxona vositalar va funksiyalarni taqdim etadi, lekin umumiy arxitektura yoki operatsiyalar ketma-ketligini belgilamaydi.
_Moslashuvchanlik:_ (Flexibility) Kutubxonalar odatda ko'proq moslashuvchan bo'lib, turli kontekstlarda ishlatilishi mumkin va dasturingizga aniq bir tuzilmani yuklamaydi.
_Misol:_ (Example) JavaScript'da jQuery kutubxonasi DOM bilan ishlash, hodisalarni boshqarish va AJAX so'rovlarini bajarish uchun funksiyalarni taqdim etadi. Siz jQuery funksiyalarini o'zingizning dastur mantiqingizda kerak bo'lganda chaqirasiz.
**Freymvork**
_Foydalanish:_ (Usage) Freymvork dasturlarni yaratish uchun tuzilgan va oldindan belgilangan usulni taqdim etadi. U odatda kutubxonalar, vositalar va eng yaxshi amaliyotlar to'plamini o'z ichiga oladi.
_Boshqaruv:_ (Control) Freymvork dastur oqimini belgilaydi. U o'z dizayni va hayotiy tsiklga asoslangan holda sizning kodingizni ma'lum nuqtalarda chaqiradi.
_Tuzilish:_ (Structure) Freymvorklar dasturingizga aniq tuzilma va dizayn naqshlarini yuklaydi. Ular ko'pincha muayyan konventsiyalarni bajarishingizni va kodlaringizni integratsiyalash uchun aniq nuqtalarni taqdim etishni talab qiladi.
_Misol:_ (Example) JavaScript'da Angular freymvorki veb-ilovalarni yaratish uchun to'liq tuzilmani taqdim etadi, shu jumladan modullar, komponentlar, xizmatlar va yo'naltirish. Sizning kodingiz ushbu tuzilishga mos keladi va Angular umumiy dastur oqimini boshqaradi.
**Asosiy Farqlar**
Kutubxona: Siz kutubxonani chaqirasiz.
Freymvork: Freymvork sizning kodingizni chaqiradi (Boshqaruvning Inversiyasi).
Kutubxona: Dasturingiz oqimini siz boshqarasiz.
Freymvork: Freymvork dastur oqimini boshqaradi va siz aniq tafsilotlarni kiritasiz.
Kutubxona: Odatda tor va aniq funksiyalar to'plamini taqdim etadi (masalan, loglash kutubxonasi, matematik kutubxona).
Freymvork: Dastur ehtiyojlarini qamrab olish uchun keng va integratsiyalangan funksiyalar to'plamini taqdim etadi (masalan, veb-ilova freymvorki).
**Xulosa** qilib aytganda, kutubxonalar qayta foydalanish mumkin bo'lgan kod qismlarini taqdim etadi, siz ularni kerak bo'lganda loyihangizga qo'shasiz, freymvorklar esa loyihangiz arxitekturasi va oqimini boshqarishga yordam beradi, dasturingizga tuzilgan yondashuvni taklif qiladi.
Endi bu tushunchalarni tushungandan keyin **React** haqida gaplashamiz.
**- React bu Javascript kutubxonasi**
**- React SPA technalogiyasi**
**- React Virtual Dom asosida ishlaydi**
Endi Reactda JSX degan tushuncha bor.JSX format bu Bitta div ichida html taglari joylashuviga aytiladi.Bunda alohida div kodlari bo'lmaydi!
Jsx Format.

Jsx formatga to'g'ri kelmaydi!

Ho'p keyingi tushuncha bu Components.Componenta mustaqil hech kim bilan ishi yo'q.O'zi boshqa kodlar bilan umuman ishi yo'q bo'lgan,qayta-qayta foydalana oladigan kodlar majmuasi desak bo'ladi.
Componentalarni ishlatishda 3 ta muhim qoidasi bor.
1-Katta harf bilan yozilishi kerak
2-Componentalar chaqirilganda tag kabi chaqiriladi
3-Componentalar jsx format qaytaradi
Misol ko'rishingiz mumkin.

Reactda 2 xil Components mavjud
- Class (kam ishlatiladi)
- Function
Bular haqida keyingi mavzularda gaplashamiz.
O'ylaymanki yetarli tushunchalarga ega bo'ldingiz hozirgacham.Keyingi mavzulargacha...

In... | 0 | 2024-06-08T06:44:10 | https://victorleungtw.com/2024/06/08/groupthink/ | leadership, strategy, planning, innovation | I was on a business trip to Vietnam last week, and I had a reflection while visiting my client. In any organization, strategic planning is crucial for success. Imagine a scenario where a leader gathers key personnel and top planners to draft an operational plan for the upcoming year. These individuals share a common environment, similar training, and mutual experiences within a hierarchical structure. As they convene, the process appears seamless: decisions align with what they believe the leader wants, what senior personnel suggest, and what everyone collectively “knows” about the organization and its operational landscape. The plan is drafted, approved, and implemented. Yet, it fails.

## Why Plans Fail
### Misunderstanding Leadership Intentions
One critical reason for the failure could be a fundamental misunderstanding of the leader’s intentions. Even though the group aims to please and align with the leader’s vision, their interpretation might be flawed. Miscommunication or lack of clarity from the leader can lead to decisions that deviate from the intended strategy.
### Reliance on Assumptions
Another pitfall is the reliance on “what everyone knows” about the organization and its environment. These assumptions might be outdated or incorrect. When decisions are based on unverified beliefs, the plan is built on a shaky foundation.
### Inertia and Resistance to Change
Organizations often fall into the trap of “doing things the way they’ve always been done.” This inertia prevents the exploration of alternative approaches and stifles innovation. By not challenging the status quo, organizations miss opportunities to improve and adapt to new challenges.
### Ignoring Complex and Ambiguous Issues
Complex and ambiguous issues are often sidelined during planning sessions. These topics are perceived as too difficult to address, leading to gaps in the plan. Ignoring these critical areas can have significant repercussions when the plan encounters real-world scenarios.
### Fear of Contradicting Senior Personnel
Junior team members may recognize potential flaws or have innovative ideas but fear contradicting senior personnel or subject matter experts. This fear stifles open dialogue and prevents valuable insights from surfacing.
### External Factors
External factors, such as the actions of competitors or unforeseen adversarial actions, can derail even the best-laid plans. These factors are often unpredictable and require a level of flexibility and adaptability that rigid plans cannot accommodate.
## Human Behavior and Group Dynamics
### Patterns of Behavior
Humans develop patterns of behavior to achieve goals with minimal effort. We learn to cooperate and agree with others to gain acceptance and avoid conflict. While these behaviors can be beneficial, they can also lead to groupthink, where dissenting opinions are suppressed, and critical thinking is bypassed.
### Cognitive Shortcuts
To save time and energy, we use cognitive shortcuts, applying familiar solutions to new problems, even when they don’t fit perfectly. This can lead to oversights and the application of inappropriate strategies.
### The Influence of Extroverts
In group settings, extroverts often dominate discussions, while introverts, despite having valuable ideas, may remain silent. This dynamic can result in a narrow range of ideas and solutions being considered.
## Overcoming These Challenges
### Foster Open Communication
Encouraging open communication and creating a safe environment for all team members to voice their opinions is crucial. Leaders should actively seek input from junior members and introverts, ensuring diverse perspectives are considered.
### Challenge Assumptions
Regularly questioning and challenging assumptions helps prevent reliance on outdated or incorrect information. This practice encourages critical thinking and keeps the planning process grounded in reality.
### Embrace Change and Innovation
Organizations should cultivate a culture that embraces change and innovation. Encouraging experimentation and considering alternative approaches can lead to more robust and adaptable plans.
### Address Complex Issues
Rather than ignoring complex and ambiguous issues, teams should tackle them head-on. Breaking down these challenges into manageable parts and addressing them systematically can prevent gaps in the plan.
### Monitor External Factors
Maintaining awareness of external factors and being prepared to adapt plans as needed can help mitigate the impact of unforeseen events. Flexibility and resilience are key components of successful operational planning.
In conclusion, while the planning process may appear smooth and collaborative, underlying issues such as misunderstanding leadership intentions, reliance on assumptions, resistance to change, and group dynamics can lead to failure. By fostering open communication, challenging assumptions, embracing innovation, addressing complex issues, and remaining adaptable, organizations can increase the odds of success and develop robust operational plans.

1,881,134 | Relational Databases: PostgreSQL Vs. MariaDB Vs. MySQL Vs. SQLite | Relational databases first appeared in the 1970s—that was more than half a century ago! They have... | 0 | 2024-06-08T06:37:54 | https://dev.to/strapi/relational-databases-postgresql-vs-mariadb-vs-mysql-vs-sqlite-5dn7 | beginners, database, coding, sql | Relational databases first appeared in the [1970s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_database)—that was more than half a century ago! They have stood what one would call the “test of time” and remained the go-to persistence solution for software applications. Other database technologies like NoSQL have challenged this dominance of RDBMS, but their sheer versatility has kept them at the top.
In a landscape filled with open-source and commercial relational databases, this article focuses on the four most prominent open-source databases - [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org/), [MySQL](https://www.mysql.com/), [MariaDB](https://mariadb.org/), and [SQLite](https://sqlite.org/). These DBMS are the most preferred databases per the [SO’s 2023 survey](https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#section-most-popular-technologies-databases).

When developers face many database options, it can feel like drowning in a sea of choices. But the real danger lies in the aftermath of a poor database selection. It's not just a ticking time bomb; it's a full-blown explosion in the advanced stages of application development, turning a switch to a more suitable database technology into a living nightmare.
This article aims to empower developers with enough knowledge to make informed decisions about various popular relational databases.
## Core Feature Comparison: PostgreSQL Vs. MariaDB Vs. MySQL Vs. SQLite
The core features of a database often emerge as the pivotal factor in your choice of database technology. Whether it's the architecture or the feature set implemented by a database, these properties can significantly sway your decision. Given the importance of these core features, we begin our discussion with an extensive comparison of these across the four databases.
### 1. Database Architecture
While all of the databases we are comparing are relational databases, there are some significant architectural differences among them. Let's explore these differences.
* **PostgreSQL:** PostgreSQL's unique architecture as an Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS) is a game-changer. It not only caters to the needs of a relational database but also extends its support to classes, objects, and inheritance. This powerful capability of PostgreSQL effectively bridges the gap between relational databases and object-oriented databases, opening up a world of possibilities for a wide range of applications.
**Example:** This object-oriented perspective of PostgreSQL is evident in several places. Every table in PostgreSQL has a corresponding data type created, and each row of a table can be seen as an instance of that data type.
```bash
CREATE TYPE car_type AS (id integer, maker text, model text);
CREATE TABLE car OF car_type;
```
You can also create tables inherited from other tables.
```bash
CREATE TABLE ev_car (battery_capacity integer) INHERITS (car);
```
Additionally, PostgreSQL is fully ACID-compliant in all of its configurations. This is a desired guarantee for many enterprise-grade applications! Moreover, it is the [closest](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/features.html) database to complete conformance with the SQL standards.
PostgreSQL's implementation of MVCC (Multi-Version Concurrency Control) is a testament to its efficiency. Unlike other databases that rely on locks or undo logs, PostgreSQL maintains versioned copies of DB objects. This approach is not just efficient, it's highly efficient, particularly when dealing with a large number of concurrent users and long running transactions. This reassures you of its performance in handling your database's needs.
* **MySQL:** This is a pure relational database with an architecture optimized for read-heavy workloads. It uses a single process for multiple users, resulting in better read performance overall compared to other databases!
MySQL offers a flexible architecture, supporting around 15 DB engines in addition to its default [InnoDB](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.3/en/innodb-introduction.html) engine. MySQL allows you to specify database engines at the table level using the TYPE parameter.
**Example**: Using **ISAM engine** for a table in MySQL.
```bash
CREATE TABLE car (
id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
PRIMARY KEY (id),
maker TINYTEXT,
model TINYTEXT
) TYPE=ISAM
```
* **MariaDB:** This is a fork of MySQL and thus shares many architectural features with MySQL. The project was initiated by MySQL's developers after its acquisition by Oracle, but since then, both databases have been developed independently.
MariaDB's architecture offers improved scalability and performance. It has a larger thread pool for better concurrency, only offered in MySQL's enterprise version. It also provides better performance in terms of the number of queries served per second.
Columnar storages have proven to outperform their row-based counterparts for workloads heavy on analytics. MariaDB sets itself apart by offering a dedicated DB engine for columnar storage, known as [ColumnStore](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-columnstore/+questions/). This unique feature positions MariaDB as an exceptional choice for OLAP workloads, further enhancing its appeal for specific use cases.
**Example**: Using **ColumnStore** in MariaDB
```bash
CREATE TABLE `experiment` (
`time` datetime NOT NULL,
`scientist` varchar(1024) NOT NULL,
`content` text NOT NULL
) ENGINE=Columnstore
```
* **SQLite:** Unlike the other three databases, SQLite is a serverless database! A single-file database, it is lightweight, simple, and quickly embeddable. This unique architecture makes it a great choice for embedded applications.
SQLite, a client-side database, operates on a relational data storage model. However, it does come with some limitations when compared to the other three databases. Its unique architecture, while offering benefits, also means that SQLite has limited transaction and concurrency support.
### 2. Data Types & Unique Functionality
All four databases encompass a comprehensive set of basic datatypes, including text, number, boolean, and date, for regular use cases. However, differences start to appear when dealing with advanced data types. Let us compare the support offered by various databases for advanced data types.
- **JSON** - With the increased adaption of JSON in web applications, databases are often required to persist JSON data directly. Both MySQL and PostgreSQL provide support for JSON datatypes. This support is absent for MariaDB and SQLite, and the best we can do is serialise JSON as a string.
- **Arrays** - PostgreSQL is the only database among the four that supports storing arrays in database tables. Arrays can be persisted as JSON in MySQL, but there is no support for storing arrays natively. Again, MariaDB and SQLite do not provide support for persisting arrays natively.
- **Geospatial Data** - Barring SQLite, all the other databases support Geospatial Data. PostgreSQL's [PostGIS](https://postgis.net/) extension supports over 600 spatial operators. MySQL, with its [Spatial](https://www.cmi.ac.in/madhavan/courses/databases10/mysql-5.0-reference-manual/spatial-extensions.html) extension and MariaDB support over 160 operators.
Each database offers unique features that may be suitable for specific use cases. Here is a list of popular features provided by each database.
| Database | Features |
|---------------|----------------------------------------------------|
| PostgreSQL | [Materialized Views](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/rules-materializedviews.html), [Pub/Sub Notifications](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-notify.html) |
| MySQL/MariaDB | [Invisible Columns](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/invisible-columns.html), [Temporary Tablespaces](https://www.notion.so/Exploring-Top-Relational-Databases-PostgreSQL-vs-MariaDB-vs-MySQL-vs-SQLite-930eac3a8a2b4f4085f2737a02cbab0e?pvs=21) |
| SQLite | [Virtual Table](https://www.notion.so/Exploring-Top-Relational-Databases-PostgreSQL-vs-MariaDB-vs-MySQL-vs-SQLite-930eac3a8a2b4f4085f2737a02cbab0e?pvs=21) |
### 3. Performance & Scalability
The performance of a database depends on several factors, such as data volume, mix of operations, number of concurrent users, and hardware capability. Therefore, a statement like “***Database system X is more performant than database system Y***” is incomplete without mentioning all of these variables!
MySQL/MariaDB have generally been found to provide better performance for a read-heavy workload. On the other hand, when the workload consists of both read and write operations, PostgreSQL outperforms other databases. For very simple queries on small to medium-sized databases, SQLite will be the most efficient since there is no overhead of maintaining a server and heavy concurrency machinery.
> **NOTE**: It is very important to characterize your workloads and compare database performance on each workload instead of using a general performance comparison!
Talking about scalability, all databases, except SQLite, offer replication and horizontal scalability. Between MariaDB and MySQL, MariaDB is known to be better scalable.
## Development Experience
Besides the core features, general development experience is another significant factor when deciding on a database. This section will explore key factors influencing your experience working with each database option.
### 1. Ease of Use & Learning Curve
#### Installation and Setup Complexity
Regarding setup and installation, SQLite wins the race by miles. With its server-less architecture and zero-configuration setup, it is the simplest to spin up and use. Everything needed to use SQLite comes bundled with the application!
Both MariaDB and MySQL offer a relatively straightforward configuration and usage experience. This ease of installation is a key factor in their popularity for quick Proof of Concept (PoC) and ideation, as it allows developers to focus on their projects rather than the setup process.
PostgreSQL has the most complex configuration of all four. Installing it can be challenging, especially for beginners. While efforts are being made to simplify its installation, it still lacks MariaDB and MySQL in terms of ease of installation.
#### Learning Curve
Without the complexities of large database systems, SQLite has the gentlest learning curve. With some basic knowledge of SQL and data persistence, anyone can start using and working with SQLite.
Both MySQL and MariaDB, with their shared architecture, offer a smooth learning curve for beginners. The knowledge you gain from one database can be easily applied to the other, making the learning process even more efficient.
With its extensive set of features, PostgreSQL has the steepest learning curve. Before they can start using it, users should be familiar with the ORDBMS architecture and several database configurations.
### 2. Community & Support
All four databases are open-source and highly popular, so they provide good community support. However, MySQL also provides an enterprise version, and some feature requests might be denied in the community version in favor of the enterprise version.
### 3. Third-Party Tools and Integrations
All four databases enjoy a rich repository of third-party tools and integrations. These tools simplify day-to-day database management and usage.
#### PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL has a large collection of extensions that add a number of features to it. Some of the popular ones are PostGIS, LTree, and HStore. All four databases are open-source and highly popular, so they provide good community support. However, MySQL also provides an enterprise version, and some feature requests might be denied in the community version in favor of the enterprise version.
* ***Management Tools*** - [psql](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.0/app-psql.htm) and [pgAdmin](https://www.pgadmin.org/).
* ***Backup & Restore*** - [pg_dump](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgdump.html) and [pg_restore](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgrestore.html).
* ***Monitoring*** - [pg_stat_activity](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/monitoring-stats.html) and [pg_stat_statement](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/monitoring-stats.html)
#### MySQL and MariaDB
MySQL and MariaDB being interoperable shares most of the tools in common.
* ***Management Tools*** - mysql and [phpMyAdmin](https://www.phpmyadmin.net/)
* ***Backup & Restore*** - [mysqldump](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysqldump.html) and[ mysqlimport](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysqlimport.html)
#### SQLite
SQLite too offer tools like [sqlite3](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html) to manage database from command line.
## Database Integration with Strapi
Strapi allows you to use either of these four databases for your application development purposes. Once you decide on the most suitable database technology for your application, you can configure Strapi to persist your application data inside that database. Let us understand the configurations required in Strapi for each database. Check out the [documentation](https://docs.strapi.io/dev-docs/configurations/database) for database configurations in Strapi.
### SQLite Integration with Strapi
SQLite is the default ([quickstart](https://docs.strapi.io/dev-docs/quick-start)) and the recommended database to quickly create an app locally. You can use the `quickstart` flag to automatically configure the SQLite database.
```bash
yarn create strapi-app my-project --quickstart
```
This should automatically open up the admin page on `localhost:1337/admin`. Once logged in, you can create collections and SQLite database will be used to persist all data.
By default the database file (`data.db`) for SQLite will be placed inside `.tmp` folder at the root of your Strapi project. This can be configured in the `database.js` file inside the `config` directory.
```js
module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
connection: {
client: 'sqlite',
connection: {
filename: path.join(__dirname, '..', env('DATABASE_FILENAME', '.tmp/data.db')),
},
useNullAsDefault: true,
},
});
```
You can either set `DATABASE_FILENAME` environment variable or explicitly provide database file path in `database.js`. As discussed, SQLite is the easiest way to get you started when working on applications.
### PostgreSQL Integration with Strapi
We can use the custom installation method for creating Strapi projects that uses PostgreSQL. For this to work, you must already have a running PostgreSQL instance on your machine.
Here is how this can be done. Specify the correct database name, host, port, username, and password for your Postgres database and Strapi will do the rest for you!
```bash
npx create-strapi-app strapi-with-postgres
? Choose your installation type Custom (manual settings)
? Choose your preferred language JavaScript
? Choose your default database client postgres
? Database name: postgres
? Host: 127.0.0.1
? Port: 5432
? Username: postgres
? Password: ********
? Enable SSL connection: No
Creating a project with custom database options.
Creating a new Strapi application at /home/strapi-with-postgres.
Creating files.
Dependencies installed successfully.
Initialized a git repository.
Your application was created at /home/strapi-with-postgres.
Available commands in your project:
yarn develop
Start Strapi in watch mode. (Changes in Strapi project files will trigger a server restart)
yarn start
Start Strapi without watch mode.
yarn build
Build Strapi admin panel.
yarn strapi
Display all available commands.
You can start by doing:
cd /home/strapi-with-postgres
yarn develop
```
As suggested in the output of the npx command, we can start the server and our Strapi application will now use the Postgres database. You might see errors like below if the PostgreSQL database is not running or is not configured properly.
```bash
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5432 │
│ at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1195:16) │
│ │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
Again, you can find all the database configuration inside the `config/database.js` file.
```js
postgres: {
connection: {
connectionString: env('DATABASE_URL'),
host: env('DATABASE_HOST', 'localhost'),
port: env.int('DATABASE_PORT', 5432),
database: env('DATABASE_NAME', 'strapi'),
user: env('DATABASE_USERNAME', 'strapi'),
password: env('DATABASE_PASSWORD', 'strapi'),
ssl: env.bool('DATABASE_SSL', false) && {
key: env('DATABASE_SSL_KEY', undefined),
cert: env('DATABASE_SSL_CERT', undefined),
ca: env('DATABASE_SSL_CA', undefined),
capath: env('DATABASE_SSL_CAPATH', undefined),
cipher: env('DATABASE_SSL_CIPHER', undefined),
rejectUnauthorized: env.bool(
'DATABASE_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED',
true
),
},
schema: env('DATABASE_SCHEMA', 'public'),
},
pool: { min: env.int('DATABASE_POOL_MIN', 2), max: env.int('DATABASE_POOL_MAX', 10) },
}
```
For a comprehensive tutorial on setting up Strapi with Postgres, refer to [this](https://strapi.io/blog/postgre-sql-and-strapi-setup) article.
### MySQL/MariaDB Integration with Strapi
The configuration process for MySQL/MariaDB is similar to that of PostgreSQL. We can use custom installation method for starting a MySQL/MariaDB based Strapi application.
```bash
npx create-strapi-app strapi-with-mysql
? Choose your installation type Custom (manual settings)
? Choose your preferred language JavaScript
? Choose your default database client mysql
? Database name: strapi-with-mysql
? Host: 127.0.0.1
? Port: 3306
? Username: mysql
? Password: *****
? Enable SSL connection: No
Creating a project with custom database options.
Creating a new Strapi application at /home/strapi-with-mysql.
Creating files.
Dependencies installed successfully.
Initialized a git repository.
Your application was created at /home/strapi-with-mysql.
Available commands in your project:
yarn develop
Start Strapi in watch mode. (Changes in Strapi project files will trigger a server restart)
yarn start
Start Strapi without watch mode.
yarn build
Build Strapi admin panel.
yarn strapi
Display all available commands.
You can start by doing:
cd /home/strapi-with-mysql
yarn develop
```
This will add the following configuration inside the `database.js` file. It lists out the client, host, password, database, and user to be used for connecting.
```js
mysql: {
connection: {
connectionString: env('DATABASE_URL'),
host: env('DATABASE_HOST', 'localhost'),
port: env.int('DATABASE_PORT', 3306),
database: env('DATABASE_NAME', 'strapi'),
user: env('DATABASE_USERNAME', 'strapi'),
password: env('DATABASE_PASSWORD', 'strapi'),
ssl: env.bool('DATABASE_SSL', false) && {
key: env('DATABASE_SSL_KEY', undefined),
cert: env('DATABASE_SSL_CERT', undefined),
ca: env('DATABASE_SSL_CA', undefined),
capath: env('DATABASE_SSL_CAPATH', undefined),
cipher: env('DATABASE_SSL_CIPHER', undefined),
rejectUnauthorized: env.bool(
'DATABASE_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED',
true
),
},
},
pool: { min: env.int('DATABASE_POOL_MIN', 2), max: env.int('DATABASE_POOL_MAX', 10) },
}
```

## Use Cases & Recommendations
Equipped with the knowledge of core features and development experience for each of the database, it is time for us to identify what scenarios makes one database preferrable over the other.
* **SQLite**: This is most suited for embedded applications. It can also be a viable option if you are working with low volumes of data without much concern for data concurrency.
* **MySQL**: MySQL is a good choice for quick prototyping. Additionally, if your workload consists of bulk reads and a comparatively smaller number of writes, MySQL is a better candidate.
* **MariaDB**: The fact that MariaDB and MySQL share the same architecture implies that both databases are good candidates for many everyday use cases. But if you are looking for a scalable database that offers high query speed, then MariaDB is the way to go.
* **PostgreSQL**: PostgreSQL becomes the best option when building large and complex enterprise-grade applications. Its rich feature set and SQL standard conformance offer everything you need from a relational database. Strapi allows you to use either of these four databases for your application development purposes. Once you decide on the most suitable database technology for your application, you can configure Strapi to persist your application data inside that database. Let us understand the configurations required in Strapi for each database.
## Comparison Matrix: PostgreSQL Vs. MariaDB Vs. MySQL Vs. SQLite
The image below shows some summarized differences between the top relational databases discussed so far.

## Conclusion
Each database has its own strengths and weaknesses. While one might be easy to install and use, the other might offer more features. When dealing with large volumes of data requiring complex queries, PostgreSQL is the way to go. For embedded applications or low volume-low concurrency use cases, SQLite offers the best solution. MariaDB/MySQL is a better option for medium data volumes and read-heavy workloads.
Choosing the correct database for your particular use case is challenging. Finding one that best aligns with your needs takes a lot of research and experimentation. A thorough understanding of core database features facilitates making informed decisions, as explored in this comparison of PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite. While this article covered the four most popular relational databases, a similar exercise can be done for any database. | the_infinity |

1,881,132 | React 19: Highlights of the Most Recent React JS v19 Version | Every so often, Even as trends change frequently, React remains a popular choice for front-end... | 0 | 2024-06-08T06:32:50 | https://dev.to/lewisblakeney/react-19-highlights-of-the-most-recent-react-js-v19-version-1d3f | react, reactjsdevelopment, news |
Every so often, Even as trends change frequently, React remains a popular choice for front-end developers due to its ability to create efficient and user-friendly web applications. This continued demand for React skills means many companies are actively looking to [hire React JS developers](https://www.webcluesinfotech.com/react-js-development-services/)
The popularity of React is not accidental in any way. With a component-based architecture, declarative nature, and vast tooling ecosystem, it has always been easy for developers to build dynamic user interfaces with React. Many developers worldwide have found it useful in developing anything from single-page applications to complex web experiences.
But everything changes when we talk about React 19. The latest version of the platform does not only entail another minor update; it contains several innovative features that can enable programmers to streamline their workflows and enhance performance by using optimized solutions to build websites.
In this blog post, we will delve into everything about React 19– its main characteristics and how they might affect your project development work. For both experienced and beginner React programmers, this comprehensive guide gives you all the information you need on how best you can maximize React 19.
**React 19: A Game Changer**
React 19 is not simply another incremental update to the React library, which was already awesome. It is a big step forward that takes the best of its precursors and brings it to the next stage with amazing features that can be game changers in web development.
One of the core concepts behind React 19 has been to enable developers to build great user experiences without getting into complicated code patterns or performance pitfalls. Some basic highlights of this are seen in Server Components and an enhanced concurrent rendering.
Server Components, which is a new feature introduced by React 19, enables you to write components once and render them on the server side as well as client side. This comes with various advantages. Primarily, it allows for server-side rendering (SSR) that results in better page loading time initially and SEO enhancements. Secondly, it simplifies data fetching as information can be pulled on the server side and passed down as props to components thus eliminating complex client-side data fetching techniques.
Another major improvement with regards to user interactions is concurrent rendering which forms one of the pillars of React 19 versions. In the previous cases, when being referred to a current render before dealing with user input it might appear laggy or slow down. But if using concurrent rendering, the mix can work through two updates at once such that there will no longer be perceived sluggishness while scrolling, etc., especially in high-interaction applications.
These are some instances where React 19 goes beyond mere bug fixes and version bumps. It revolutionizes how we develop web apps allowing developers to create more performant applications that scale better and are search engine optimized (SEO).
**Technical Deep Dive:**
As much excitement as Server Components and concurrent rendering attract among developers; another upcoming feature has created quite a buzz around: The React compiler. Although still under development, the React compiler seems like it will change performance optimization completely. This experiment seeks ways in which react code could be analyzed and automatically transformed into efficient JavaScript thereby enabling significant performance improvements without requiring developers to implement complex optimization themselves.
**Key Features of React 19:**
React 19 is packed with a host of thrilling traits meant to smoothen the development process and enable you to make outstanding web apps. Here we take a closer look at some of the most influential additions.
**1. Server Components**
Server Components are a shift in the React paradigm that makes it possible for you to write reusable components that can be rendered on both the server and client side. This comes with an attractive pack of benefits:
Improved Initial Load Time and SEO: During the initial request, Server Components are rendered at the server hence delivering fully formed HTML to the browser. Consequently, this results in faster initial page loads which is very crucial for user experiences thus enhancing SEO. Search engines can easily crawl and index such content thereby growing your application's visibility.
Simplified Data Fetching: No more complicated client-side data fetching logic. With Server Components, you may now fetch data directly on the server before passing it down as props into your component. As such, this reduces code redundancy while shifting processing burden from clients making your application more performant.
Code Reusability: The reason why Server Components are special is because they are usable again. You will only need one component that can be rendered both on server or client thus eliminating code duplication each environment requires.
Example:
Suppose you had a blog post component that displayed title, content, as well as author information. In the traditional approach, there might have been separate components for the server-side rendered version (with pre-fetched data) and the client-side rendered version (fetching data dynamically). However, using this Server Component approach means that you can write just one component that handles these two situations hence better code maintainability plus cleanliness.
**2. Improved Performance**
To optimize performance React 19 has emphasized several features for rendering and user interaction streamlining purposes.
Enhanced Concurrent Rendering: Such concurrent rendering enables React to work on another update even as previous ones have been still rendering as mentioned earlier. Such a situation therefore improves user experience, especially in applications with fast user interactions such as typing or scrolling. Users experience a smoother and more responsive application even during complex updates.
Improved Error Boundaries: React 19 enhances error boundaries thus making it possible for you to isolate and output meaningful error messages whenever components fail. This keeps the whole application from crashing and makes it more usable for your customers.
**3. Document Metadata in Components**
Managing document metadata like title tags, and meta descriptions is very easy thanks to React 19. Through the use of the new useDocumentMetadata hook, you can simply define these within your components. This simplifies code while ensuring that SEO best practices are followed throughout your application.
**4. New Hooks**
React 19 comes with two new hooks that improve developer productivity and make code easier to maintain:
useResource: While rendering phase, this hook allows reading resources (e.g., data or files), making data fetching logic simpler and leading to improved code organization.
useDeferredValue with initialValue: This hook gives more power over deferred values by allowing one to specify an initial value that is used while the actual value is being fetched hence avoiding UI glitches plus providing a smooth UX.
**5 Asset Loading**
Apart from other things, React 19 provides new APIs for loading and preloading browser resources which empower developers to handle resource loading better; thus resulting in enhanced response/application time and improved performance.
React 19 is a significant advance because it has many main aspects about which people ought to know. By integrally adding these innovations into your development workflow, you can build performant, scalable, and search engine-optimized websites that offer great user experiences.
**Benefits of Upgrading to React 19**
A huge decision to be made is whether to move to a new framework version or not. Nonetheless, React 19 comes with compelling advantages that make it an indispensable component in any development plan. Here’s why enhancing your business with React 19 can empower you.
- Superior Performance: quicker start-up times and a more fluid user interface experience are some of the performance enhancements implemented using React 19. This implies better user engagement and improved conversions on your applications.
- Smooth Development Workflow: Improved error boundary, server components, and innovative hooks like useResource are a few things that simplify your development process. It enables you to write cleaner maintainable codes while concentrating on creating great UX.
- SEO Benefits: Additionally, Server Components help in controlling document metadata within components to enhance SEO for instance. As such, it allows search engines to easily crawl and index your content thus increasing the visibility of your application in search results.
- Ensuring future-proofed Applications: Embracing cutting-edge technology through React's latest developments for building your apps ensures they will always be ahead of the curve. In return, this makes integration easier with future React features which sets a precedent for you moving forward.
Incorporating React 19 does more than just modernize; rather, it unlocks many benefits for both developers during their development process and end users of their products.
**Conclusion**
React 19 is a big step in developing this formidable front-end framework. It is not just some new features put together; it confirms the dedication of the React team to making developers more powerful and discovering new heights on the web.
Due to Server Components, enhanced performance optimizations, and a concentration on developer experience, React 19 provides great opportunities for building next-generation web applications. Whether you have been working with React for years or are about to start your journey, get yourself well-versed in these advancements so that you can create fast-running, scalable, and SEO-friendly apps with great user experiences.

1,881,097 | Configuring Hibernate for Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) | Step-by-Step Guide | This blog post discusses how to configure the hibernate feature for Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)... | 0 | 2024-06-08T06:20:49 | https://dev.to/amalkabraham001/configuring-hibernate-for-azure-virtual-desktop-avd-step-by-step-guide-67a | avd, microsoft, azure | This blog post discusses how to configure the hibernate feature for Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) desktops.Many companies use autoscaling features to reduce cloud spending. However, personal AVD users may experience wait times while VMs transition from a deallocated state to a ready state.The hibernate option allows users to resume their work or restore the AVD's current state when they return the next day.It allows users to faster access to their desktops and preserve application states. Hibernation also benefits companies by saving cloud costs and reducing energy consumption, aligning with sustainability initiatives.
Let's now explore how to configure hibernation for AVD desktops...
Hibernate feature is supported only in specific Azure VM families like DsV5 series and Esv5 series.
## Enabling Hibernate feature during AVD Session Host creation
For those new to AVD, a session host is a virtual machine that provides desktops to users. To enable hibernation, follow these steps:
1. Initiate the session host creation wizard within AVD.
1. During the VM creation workflow, locate the option labeled "Hibernate" and tick the checkbox. This action will activate the hibernate feature for the virtual machine (as illustrated in the available screenshot).

Proceed with the session host creation. Once the session hosts are created, the next step is to configure hibernate via auto scaling.
## Configure the Hibernate via auto scaling.
For those new to AVD auto-scaling, you can refer to your earlier blog... (https://amalcloud.wordpress.com/2023/07/22/770/) .
In the auto scaling settings, change the disconnect and log off settings to Hibernate the VM rather than shutting it down(as illustrated in the available screenshot). Perform the same for weekend and weekday schedules.

## VM going to Hibernate
We have configured the auto scaling feature to hibernate the VM after X minutes of disconnection, logoff as per the configuration. I configured 1 minute to hibernate my VM after disconnection. In the Azure console the VM state has changed to "hibernated(deallocated)"(as illustrated in the available screenshot).

One interesting fact is; my VM took 1 minute 47 seconds to restore completely and become accessible (or to be able to see) my desktop. This includes entering the credentials to AVD as well.

However my VDI state has been preserved and the user satisfaction increased.
I haven't observed any other issues with Hibernate feature, please comment if you are seeing any abnormalities after enabling autoscaling feature.
#enable Hibernate option in existing VMs
While hibernation can be enabled for existing VMs using various methods like PowerShell, CLI, ARM, SDKs, and APIs, let's explore how to achieve this using PowerShell.
For this demo, I took a VM where hibernate feature is disabled as shown in the below screenshot.

Execute the script located in my github to enable hibernate feature
(https://github.com/amalkabraham001/AVD/blob/c1a60c159253eb628aff589004cd3ec3f11bdcaf/Session%20Host/hibernate/enablehibernate.ps1).
The script will first deallocate the VM and then enable hibernation support in the OS disk.

Once the disk level hibernation support is enabled, the script will enable hibernate feature in the VM as shown in the below screenshots.

They allow developers to extend HTML's capabilities by creating new HTML elements, attributes, classes, and comments. Directives can be used to manipulate the DOM, apply styles, manage forms, and more.
In this blog, we'll dive deep into Angular directives, exploring their types, usage, and how to create custom directives with practical code examples.
### Table of Contents
1. What are Angular Directives?
2. Types of Directives
- Attribute Directives
- Structural Directives
- Component Directives
3. Creating Custom Directives
- Custom Attribute Directive
- Custom Structural Directive
4. Practical Examples
5. Conclusion
### 1. What are Angular Directives?
Angular directives are special tokens in the markup that tell the Angular compiler to do something with a DOM element or even the entire DOM tree. They play a crucial role in extending the HTML vocabulary and making it more expressive.
### 2. Types of Directives
Angular directives can be categorized into three main types:
#### Attribute Directives
Attribute directives are used to change the appearance or behavior of an element, component, or another directive. They are typically applied as attributes to elements.
**Example: `ngClass`**
```html
<div [ngClass]="{'highlight': isHighlighted}">Hello, Angular!</div>
```
#### Structural Directives
Structural directives change the DOM layout by adding or removing elements. They are denoted by a leading asterisk (`*`).
**Example: `ngIf`**
```html
<div *ngIf="isVisible">This content is conditionally visible.</div>
```
#### Component Directives
Component directives are the most common directives in Angular. Every component you create is a directive with a template.
**Example: Custom Component**
```typescript
@Component({
selector: 'app-greeting',
template: `<h1>Hello, {{name}}!</h1>`
})
export class GreetingComponent {
name: string = 'Angular';
}
```
### 3. Creating Custom Directives
Creating custom directives in Angular is straightforward. Let's explore how to create both attribute and structural directives.
#### Custom Attribute Directive
We'll create an attribute directive that changes the background color of an element when it is hovered over.
**Step 1: Generate the Directive**
```bash
ng generate directive hoverHighlight
```
**Step 2: Implement the Directive**
```typescript
import { Directive, ElementRef, HostListener, Input } from '@angular/core';
@Directive({
selector: '[appHoverHighlight]'
})
export class HoverHighlightDirective {
@Input() highlightColor: string = 'yellow';
constructor(private el: ElementRef) {}
@HostListener('mouseenter') onMouseEnter() {
this.highlight(this.highlightColor);
}
@HostListener('mouseleave') onMouseLeave() {
this.highlight(null);
}
private highlight(color: string | null) {
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundColor = color;
}
}
```
**Step 3: Use the Directive in a Template**
```html
<p appHoverHighlight highlightColor="lightblue">Hover over me to see the effect!</p>
```
#### Custom Structural Directive
We'll create a structural directive that conditionally includes a template based on a boolean expression.
**Step 1: Generate the Directive**
```bash
ng generate directive ifNot
```
**Step 2: Implement the Directive**
```typescript
import { Directive, Input, TemplateRef, ViewContainerRef } from '@angular/core';
@Directive({
selector: '[appIfNot]'
})
export class IfNotDirective {
@Input() set appIfNot(condition: boolean) {
if (!condition) {
this.viewContainer.createEmbeddedView(this.templateRef);
} else {
this.viewContainer.clear();
}
}
constructor(
private templateRef: TemplateRef<any>,
private viewContainer: ViewContainerRef
) {}
}
```
**Step 3: Use the Directive in a Template**
```html
<div *appIfNot="isVisible">This content is conditionally hidden.</div>
```
### 4. Practical Examples
Let's put everything together with a practical example. We will create an Angular application that uses both custom attribute and structural directives.
**Step 1: Create a New Angular Application**
```bash
ng new directive-demo
cd directive-demo
```
**Step 2: Create Directives (ifNot and hoverHighlight)**
Follow the steps above to generate and implement `HoverHighlightDirective` and `IfNotDirective`.
**Step 3: Update the App Component**
**app.component.html:**
```html
<h1>Angular Directive Demo</h1>
<p appHoverHighlight highlightColor="lightgreen">Hover over this text to see the background color change.</p>
<button (click)="toggleVisibility()">Toggle Visibility</button>
<div *appIfNot="isContentVisible">This content is conditionally hidden.</div>
```
**app.component.ts:**
```typescript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
isContentVisible: boolean = true;
toggleVisibility() {
this.isContentVisible = !this.isContentVisible;
}
}
```

### 5. Conclusion
Angular directives are powerful tools for extending HTML's capabilities and building dynamic, interactive applications. By understanding and utilizing attribute, structural, and component directives, you can create more modular and reusable code. Custom directives further enhance your ability to create tailored behaviors and improve the overall user experience.
Experiment with creating your own directives to see how they can simplify and enrich your Angular projects. Happy coding! | manthanank |

This guide... | 0 | 2024-06-08T06:12:09 | https://dev.to/dharamgfx/javascript-performance-making-websites-fast-and-responsive-g9 | webdev, javascript, beginners, programming | Creating a fast and responsive website is essential for user satisfaction and engagement. This guide explores the importance of web performance, how to measure it, and various techniques to optimize JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and multimedia content.
---
## **The "Why" of Web Performance**
### Importance of Web Performance
- **User Experience:** Faster websites reduce bounce rates and improve engagement.
- **SEO:** Search engines prioritize faster websites.
- **Conversion Rates:** Faster load times can significantly boost sales and conversions.
**Example:** Amazon found that every 100ms of latency cost them 1% in sales.
---
## **What is Web Performance?**
### Understanding Web Performance
- **Definition:** The speed and responsiveness of a website, affecting how quickly content is delivered to users.
- **Key Metrics:** Page load time, time to interactive (TTI), and first contentful paint (FCP).
**Example:** A website with good performance loads within 2-3 seconds and has minimal delays in user interactions.
---
## **Perceived Performance**
### Enhancing Perceived Speed
- **Perceived Performance:** How fast a website feels to the user.
- **Techniques:**
- **Lazy Loading:** Load images and other resources only when needed.
- **Skeleton Screens:** Display placeholders while content is loading.
**Example:** Implementing lazy loading for images can reduce initial load time, making the site feel faster.
---
## **Measuring Performance**
### Tools and Metrics

---
## **Multimedia: Images**
### Optimizing Images
- **Compression:** Reduce file size without losing quality.
- **Responsive Images:** Serve different image sizes based on the device.
- **Formats:** Use modern formats like WebP for better compression.
**Example:** Using `srcset` and `sizes` attributes in HTML to serve responsive images:
```html
<img src="image.jpg" srcset="image-320w.jpg 320w, image-480w.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 480px, 800px" alt="Sample Image">
```
---
## **Multimedia: Video**
### Optimizing Video
- **Formats:** Use efficient video formats like MP4 or WebM.
- **Streaming:** Implement adaptive streaming to adjust quality based on bandwidth.
- **Lazy Loading:** Load videos only when they come into the viewport.
**Example:** Embedding a video with lazy loading:
```html
<video width="600" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
```
---
## **JavaScript Performance Optimization**
### Techniques for Faster JavaScript
- **Minification:** Reduce file size by removing whitespace and comments.
- **Code Splitting:** Split code into smaller chunks to load only what is needed.
- **Debouncing and Throttling:** Optimize event handling to reduce unnecessary function calls.
**Example:** Using a bundler like Webpack to split JavaScript files:
```javascript
// webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
entry: {
app: './src/index.js',
},
output: {
filename: '[name].bundle.js',
},
optimization: {
splitChunks: {
chunks: 'all',
},
},
};
```
---
## **HTML Performance Optimization**
### Strategies for Optimizing HTML
- **Minification:** Reduce the size of HTML files by removing unnecessary whitespace and comments.
- **Preloading:** Use `<link rel="preload">` to load critical resources faster.
- **Defer Non-Essential Scripts:** Use `async` or `defer` attributes for scripts.
**Example:** Preloading critical CSS:
```html
<link rel="preload" href="styles.css" as="style">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
```
---
## **CSS Performance Optimization**
### Improving CSS Efficiency
- **Minification:** Compress CSS files to reduce size.
- **Critical CSS:** Inline critical CSS for above-the-fold content.
- **Avoiding Blocking:** Load non-critical CSS asynchronously.
**Example:** Inlining critical CSS:
```html
<style>
/* Critical CSS */
body {
margin: 0;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
</style>
```
---
## **The Business Case for Web Performance**
### Why Performance Matters for Business
- **Revenue Impact:** Faster websites lead to higher conversion rates and sales.
- **Customer Satisfaction:** Improved performance enhances user satisfaction and retention.
- **Competitive Advantage:** A fast, responsive website can set a business apart from competitors.
**Example:** Walmart found that for every 1-second improvement in page load time, their conversion increased by 2%.
---
## **Additional Topics**
### Caching Strategies
- **Browser Caching:** Utilize browser cache to store static resources.
- **Content Delivery Networks (CDNs):** Use CDNs to distribute content geographically, reducing latency.
**Example:** Setting cache headers in the HTTP response:
```http
Cache-Control: max-age=31536000
```
### Accessibility and Performance
- **Inclusive Design:** Ensure performance optimizations do not hinder accessibility.
- **Progressive Enhancement:** Deliver core functionality to all users, regardless of device or browser.
**Example:** Using ARIA roles and properties to improve accessibility:
```html
<button aria-label="Close" onclick="closeDialog()">X</button>
```
### Continuous Performance Monitoring
- **Automated Tools:** Implement automated tools and processes for continuous performance monitoring and optimization.
- **User Feedback:** Collect and analyze user feedback to identify performance bottlenecks.
**Example:** Using performance monitoring tools like New Relic to track real-time performance metrics.

## The Issue and Solution
While the text color on Windows devices is the same as the defined color in CSS, it turns blue on iOS devices. To fix this issue, I added this line.
```
-webkit-text-fill-color: black;
color: black;
```
## Similar Issue I Found. Please Give Me Advice.
Even though I did not define the text-decoration property and its value as "underline", the underline becomes visible on only iOS devices. The funny thing is it gets visible only on Google Chrome when I tested it on iOS devices.
I defined the "none" value to the text-decoration property but it did not work. I already fixed this issue by wrapping with the anchor element though, I am just curious if there is any other way.
Your feedback and advice is appreciated! | ryoichihomma | |

### About you
You are a Drupal, Symfony, or any kind of PHP dev and are looking for help with a peculiar aspect of unit testing (see title above), a tale from the crypts, or nap time story that will put you to sleep. Probably a combination of all of those. Otherwise you should probably move along ;)
### The context
I'm testing a OAuth implementation between Drupal and SoundCloud and using Drupal's functional suite to do so. The rest of my module is using either kernel or regular unit tests. But for OAuth it's either a mock (see tests for [Martin1982\OAuth2](https://packagist.org/packages/martin1982/oauth2-soundcloud) on Packagist), or a live call.
I already looked at [some mocking methods](https://github.com/Martin1982/oauth2-soundcloud/blob/24ac2edc9151bde477bc8841e49a6421d2a449ff/tests/Provider/SoundCloudTest.php) and I don't like them, too fake; I know, hot take. The SoundCloud service decommissions your access if you do not use it. Baking a live OAuth call into the testing helps keep the access alive (otherwise you'd have to wait months for re-authorization).
I'm aiming to TDD the heck out of a contrib module I'm doing for fun, and so leaving stones unturned (in testing) is not an option. _This is our definition of fun in the development department._
Not trying to say one way (mocking) is better than the other (live call), or that there is a right answer. I'm not going to Joel Spolsky this post either. I'm just going with my gut feeling and documenting the process.
### Why this post
I already lost the opportunity to document other fixes/discoveries/tips I've done so far with regards to "functional javascript" unit testing today, and so that's why I am starting this post.
I know that not in a week, but rather by tomorrow I'll forget the details because they're too many to keep track of. Not a bug of this business, just a feature. Documenting stuff somewhere is how we deal with this ... loss of context.
Also the sooner I can start dumping my browser tabs somewhere else other than a session saver or OneNote, the faster that I can close them up. Marie Kondo would not approve of the amount of tabs I have open, and neither do I! The thing I hate about dumping an entire browser session is that I'll barely revisit those while hunting for a resource. And OneNote just gets out of control, _too... many... notes_
Needless to say, you should know this is a _raw_ post. There is no editing. There is no shiny [merchandising](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/how-george-lucas-prevented-spaceballs-merchandise/) material, alt coins or artificial intelligence involved.
### Anyways.
Before PHPUnit was having trouble connecting to Chrome. A quick telnet in the Lando appserver container confirmed that Chrome was indeed up and reachable by the PHP container:

And before that I dealt with
```
/app/docroot/web/core/tests/Drupal/FunctionalJavascriptTests/WebDriverTestBase.php:146
The "chromeOptions" array key is deprecated in drupal:10.3.0 and is removed from drupal:11.0.0. Use "goog:chromeOptions instead.
```
The link (with fix) to that notice is https://www.drupal.org/node/3422624.
I prefer to use environment variables to configure the unit testing because they're easier to access than `phpunit.xml`. While I've set them before in the Lando config file, setting things in Lando means that you have to rebuild and restart the whole stack for environmental changes to take effect. Time, it just adds up, man.
Instead I put it in a bash helper called by Lando tooling. This is the env var:
```bash
# The "chromeOptions" array key is deprecated in drupal:10.3.0 and is removed from drupal:11.0.0.
# Use "goog:chromeOptions instead. See https://www.drupal.org/node/3422624
export MINK_DRIVER_ARGS_WEBDRIVER='["chrome", {"browserName": "chrome", "goog:chromeOptions": {"args": ["--disable-gpu","--headless", "--no-sandbox", "--disable-dev-shm-usage"]}}, "http://chrome:9515"]'
```
### Fixing the (second) connectivity issue
My Lando chrome spec needed to be updated to add the allowed origins flag to the chromedriver:
```yaml
chrome:
type: compose
services:
image: drupalci/webdriver-chromedriver:production
command: chromedriver --log-path=/tmp/chromedriver.log --verbose --allowed-origins=* --whitelisted-ips=
```
Note that there is a myriad chromedriver images out there, and that the drupalci happens to be the one mentioned by either Lando or [Drupal.org](https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/automated-testing/phpunit-in-drupal/running-phpunit-javascript-tests#docker-compose) documentation (maybe).
Credit for that fix is in Github, thanks to user [@Niklan](https://github.com/wodby/docker4drupal/issues/491#issuecomment-1195192823).
### Access is denied and invalid cookie domain
Mink is reporting `Failed to read the 'sessionStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document.`

PHPUnit is reporting `
Test Skipped (Drupal\Tests\musica\FunctionalJavascript\FooTest::testMyFirstJavasScriptTest)
An unexpected error occurred while starting Mink: invalid cookie domain`

### T.B.C., 6/7/24
I still have 30 or so browser tabs open (lol) and have to hunt this one down.
Love spending time on testing infrastructure instead of "actual code" (sarcasm).
It's well past beyond midnight and tomorrow is another day. I'll come back to update this post as I move along.
T.B.C. ...
### Invalid cookie domain, 6/8/24
This seems to be highly correlated to env vars `SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL` and `BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_BASE_URL`. I changed the first from secure `https` to plain-text `http`. The URL belongs to the Lando project hosting the Docker and Drupal stack.
Here is what my environment variables for PHPUnit are looking like now:
```
# Variables by integration tests.
export SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL="http://d10ee.lndo.site"
export SIMPLETEST_DB="mysql://drupalX:drupalX@database/drupal10_simpletest"
export BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY="$SITES_PATH/simpletest/browser_output"
export BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_BASE_URL="http://d10ee.lndo.site"
```
This feels good, this is a great start to my weekend. The Chrome webdriver logs went from displaying _nada_ to basically a million lines of verbose output? It's doing a lot of something!
Another good thing that happened is that the `invalid cookie domain` error in the PHPUnit logs went away (when run with the `--debug` flag), and I got a hit in the breakpoint for one of the tests. Both dummy tests I have in place were getting skipped before and so no test function breakpoints were getting hit.

Now here's an interesting error that I've never seen before while doing Unit or Kernel tests in Drupal:
`PHPUnit\Framework\Exception: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught AssertionError: Transaction $stack was not empty.`
All I have for my dummy test is the following:
```php
/**
* Stub.
*/
public function testCancelExpressionInRule(): void {
$page = $this->getSession()->getPage();
$this->assertTrue(TRUE, 'dumb assertion');
$test = NULL;
}
```
I'll be interesting to see where that error is coming from. I've never done _this_ particular kind of test in Drupal (Functional JavaScript through PHPUnit), so I'll be learning something new and sharing it here.
T.B.C., see you later today!
### Test Class Structure, 6/8/24 1:44pm
I want to make a brief note about how the Functional JavaScript test is structured.
When I declare my test, the class looks something like this:
```php
#[CoversNothing]
#[Group('javascript')]
class FooTest extends WebDriverTestBase {
```
The covers nothing group is used because as far as I understand, Functional and Functional JavaScript tests are not able to cover anything (hence they cover nothing). The group is arbitrary and I use it to fine-tune which tests get run.
Note the extension of `WebDriverTestBase`. This is an abstract class in Drupal core, which itself extends `BrowserTestBase`.
```php
/**
* Runs a browser test using a driver that supports JavaScript.
*
* Base class for testing browser interaction implemented in JavaScript.
*
* @ingroup testing
*/
abstract class WebDriverTestBase extends BrowserTestBase {
```
`WebDriverTestBase` is located at `core/tests/Drupal/FunctionalJavascriptTests/WebDriverTestBase.php`.
`BrowserTestBase` itself extends `PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase`, which as the namespace indicates comes from PHPUnit itself.
So the inheritance hierarchy looks something like this:
`PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase -> BrowserTestBase -> WebDriverTestBase -> YourFooBarTest`
The reason why I bring this up is because the `BrowserTestBase->setUp()` method is interesting:
```php
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
protected function setUp(): void {
parent::setUp();
$this->setUpAppRoot();
chdir($this->root);
// Allow tests to compare MarkupInterface objects via assertEquals().
$this->registerComparator(new MarkupInterfaceComparator());
$this->setupBaseUrl();
// Install Drupal test site.
$this->prepareEnvironment();
$this->installDrupal();
// Setup Mink. Register Mink exceptions to cause test failures instead of
// errors.
$this->registerFailureType(MinkException::class);
$this->initMink();
// Set up the browser test output file.
$this->initBrowserOutputFile();
// Ensure that the test is not marked as risky because of no assertions. In
// PHPUnit 6 tests that only make assertions using $this->assertSession()
// can be marked as risky.
$this->addToAssertionCount(1);
}
```
In particular,
```
// Install Drupal test site.
$this->prepareEnvironment();
$this->installDrupal();
```
Why is this interesting? Well, on the Chrome driver logs I'm seeing the following:
```
[1717864444.039][DEBUG]: DevTools WebSocket Response: Page.getFrameTree (id=30) (session_id=DFB171623C6AD0FD50AE0D2C08195426) 0A012DB02731872ED0B91131E95AB5F4 {
"frameTree": {
"frame": {
"adFrameStatus": {
"adFrameType": "none"
},
"crossOriginIsolatedContextType": "NotIsolated",
"domainAndRegistry": "lndo.site",
"gatedAPIFeatures": [ ],
"id": "0A012DB02731872ED0B91131E95AB5F4",
"loaderId": "D4966004B7AA6D4BA7B903A2FC1BE098",
"mimeType": "text/html",
"secureContextType": "InsecureScheme",
"securityOrigin": "http://d10ee.lndo.site",
"url": "http://d10ee.lndo.site/core/install.php"
}
}
}
```
This is odd because as I highlighted above, the Functional JavaScript test, by capacity of it's inheritance model is supposed to `$this->installDrupal();`.
Basically PHPUnit installs it's own database scheme, separate from whatever the default Lando/DDev/Docker database is for your Drupal instance. And it does it for each test suite, at the bare minimum. Not 100% sure if it does it for each single test case, but it works along those broad outlines. The finer-grained details of how many times the database is installed is not relevant here, just the fact that PHPUnit installs the database at least once is.
When I see `install.php` it means that something is still probably amiss in the PHPUnit configuration... because the test cases should be visiting an already-installed Drupal instance, not a yet-to-be installed instance.
Digging into it.
C.U. later
### Wholly molly: Transaction $stack was not empty
Well I didn't see this one coming, certainly out of leftfield it came.
The full error (minus stack trace) is: `PHPUnit\Framework\Exception: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught AssertionError: Transaction $stack was not empty. Active stack: 666487f8d33255.42467631\drupal_transaction in /app/docroot/web/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Database/Transaction/TransactionManagerBase.php:99`
Luckily the first Google result is for [D.O. issue #3405976: Transaction autocommit during shutdown relies on unreliable object destruction order (xdebug 3.3+ enabled)](https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3405976)
Scrolling through the comments I see Mondrake mention that a fix is to [disable xdebug's develop mode](https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3405976#comment-15621320).
Let's see, what does my Lando say:
```yaml
appserver:
# Lies, deception: tell Lando it's 8.2 instead of 8.3.
# https://github.com/lando/php/issues/77.
type: php:8.2
# https://docs.lando.dev/config/php.html#configuration
xdebug: "debug,develop,coverage"
config:
php: ../lando/resources/php.ini
```
Container:
```bash
www-data@31a2e4846210:/app/docroot$ echo $XDEBUG_MODE
debug,develop,coverage
```
I'm definitely not gonna spend a dollar or two in electricity rebuilding the Docker stack, times are tight!
I go to my trusty Bash test runner for PHPUnit and change `XDEBUG_MODE`:
```bash
# From this :
# export XDEBUG_MODE="debug,develop,coverage"
# To this :
export XDEBUG_MODE="debug"
```
Coverage hasn't been working at all for me lately, so I'll leave it disabled until I get to that particular bone another day.
#### Fixing XDebug fatal error
Before:
```bash
PHPUnit 10.5.20 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors.
Runtime: PHP 8.3.7
Configuration: /app/docroot/web/core/phpunit.xml.dist
E
Time: 00:37.061, Memory: 12.00 MB

├ Stack trace:

```
After
```bash

├ Behat\Mink\Exception\UnsupportedDriverActionException: Status code is not available from Drupal\FunctionalJavascriptTests\DrupalSelenium2Driver
...
FAILURES!
Tests: 2, Assertions: 5, Failures: 1.
```
Notice the test result goes from `E` to `.F`, which in PHPUnit lingo means the first unit test ran! I must say I was surprised when I saw that dot "pop up".
If you're wondering what version of Xdebug you're running, just do `php -v`, like so:
```
www-data@31a2e4846210:/app/docroot$ php -v
PHP 8.3.7 (cli) (built: Jun 6 2024 01:39:14) (NTS)
Copyright (c) The PHP Group
Zend Engine v4.3.7, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v8.3.7, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies
with Xdebug v3.4.0alpha2-dev, Copyright (c) 2002-2024, by Derick Rethans
```
The D.O. issue mentions Xdebug 3.3+, and I'm on 3.4.x, so the version matches the description, along with the database-related fatal error stack trace. Another win for today.
## Conclusion
With the last fix for Xdebug addressed, and all the kinks of getting Chrome up and running for the Drupal Functional JavaScript tests (I really wish they changed the name to something shorter), I am going to wrap up this post.
With this part of the testing infrastructure fully operational I can now finally go around my business of _actually writing software_ as opposed to _infrastructure as software_.
I'm sure these errors will pop up someday again and I'll be glad I posted this here for my future self.
If you have any questions or feedback, make sure to use the comments below!
I will leave here the bash test runner I've been referencing through the post:

Here is the current Landofile `.lando.yml` I am using. Notice I am not using Lando's default PHP image. This is because my current version of Lando does not support the latest Lando PHP recipe, so I had to cook my own PHP image in order to get the latest PHP.
{% embed https://gist.github.com/AlexanderAllen/0854a0d3151e784de3608ce458ad975f
%}
If you really want or need to build your own Docker container like I'm doing, just check out the Lando issue I'm referencing at https://github.com/lando/php/issues/77. It contains pretty much the `Dockerfile` I'm using in the `build` parameter. I'm not pushing it (the image is massive), so you'll literally have to build instead of pulling if you go that route.
For the Lando tooling in `.lando.base.yml`, the relevant config is:
```yaml
# Call PHPUnit from the directory that contains Drupal core /vendor.
# It's where bootstrap.php expects to be called from.
test:
description: Debug PHPUnit
dir: /app/docroot
cmd:
- appserver: ./test-lando
```
That's it for today, [Brooklyn sends its regards](https://youtu.be/SnKPz2acsBk?si=D70z8rxqtggZWfuz)!

Its frameworks influence both public and private sectors globally, ensuring high security and interoperability standards. Although NIST guidelines are not legally binding, they are often adopted by federal agencies and contractors, impacting global cybersecurity practices.
## NIST's Decision on Passkeys
NIST's recent supplement to its Special Publication 800–63B officially recognizes synced passkeys as AAL2-compliant. This endorsement highlights the [phishing-resistant nature of synced passkeys](https://www.corbado.com/blog/passkeys-phishing-resistant) and their suitability for secure authentication processes. Device-bound passkeys, on the other hand, meet the stricter AAL3 standards due to their higher security requirements.
## Why This Decision Matters
NIST's endorsement is crucial for several reasons:
**1. Global Trust and Influence:** NIST's guidelines are trusted worldwide. Their endorsement of passkeys will likely accelerate global adoption, particularly in regulated industries such as banking and healthcare.
**2. Enhanced Security:** Synced passkeys offer a robust security alternative to traditional passwords, reducing the risk of phishing attacks and unauthorized access.
**3. User Experience:** Beyond security, passkeys improve the user experience by simplifying the authentication process and supporting easy recovery mechanisms.
## Analysis of NIST SP 800–63B Supplement
The supplement outlines specific criteria for AAL2 and AAL3 compliance:
- **Authenticator Assurance Levels (AALs):** These levels measure the robustness of authentication processes. AAL2 involves two-factor or multi-factor authentication, while AAL3 requires multi-factor authentication with hard cryptographic proof of identity.
- **Synced Passkeys:** Recognized for their [phishing resistance](https://www.corbado.com/blog/passkeys-phishing-resistant), synced passkeys meet AAL2 requirements by ensuring secure and encrypted transmission of authentication data.
- **Device-Bound Passkeys:** These meet AAL3 standards due to their hardware-based authentication, providing very high confidence in the control of authenticators.
## Key Requirements for Synced Passkeys
To achieve AAL2 compliance, synced passkeys must:
1. **Utilize Proper Cryptography**: All keys must be created using recognized cryptographic methods.
2. **Ensure Private Key Security**: Private keys must be encrypted and securely stored.
3. **Local Authentication**: Authentication processes must involve actions using the private key on the local device.
4. **Secure Cloud Access**: Access to synced private keys in the cloud must be protected by multi-factor authentication.
5. **Documentation**: Deployment requirements for synced passkeys must be documented and communicated clearly.
## Implications for Developers and Product Managers
For developers and product managers, NIST's guidelines provide a clear framework for implementing secure passkey authentication. Adopting synced passkeys can enhance security, meet regulatory requirements, and improve user experience. It is important to configure WebAuthn properties correctly to ensure compliance and mitigate potential threats.
## Global Perspective on Passkeys
While NIST leads the way, other governmental agencies are also recognizing the importance of passkeys:
- **European Union (ENISA):** ENISA acknowledges FIDO as an authentication standard.
- **UK (NCSC):** The NCSC predicts a decline in password use, viewing passkeys as a modern solution.
- **Germany (BSI):** The BSI supports passkeys as a standard for authentication.
## Conclusion
NIST's recognition of synced passkeys as AAL2-compliant is a milestone in digital authentication. This endorsement not only boosts the security framework but also paves the way for broader adoption of passkeys across various sectors. As other regulatory bodies follow suit, the future of passwordless authentication looks promising.

If you are considering developing a P2P crypto exchange, here are ten key points to guide you through the process.
**Understanding P2P Crypto Exchanges
**A P2P crypto exchange is a platform where buyers and sellers trade cryptocurrencies directly with each other. Unlike traditional exchanges, P2P platforms do not hold funds or trade assets on behalf of users. Instead, they provide a secure environment for users to interact and trade independently.
**Identify your target market
**Determine who uses your platform. Are you targeting experienced traders, beginners or a specific geographic area? Understanding your audience helps tailor the platform's features, user interface and support services to their needs. This step is critical to ensure user satisfaction and market relevance.
**Respect for regulations
**Navigating the legal environment is essential. Different countries have different cryptocurrency business regulations. To avoid legal trouble, make sure your platform complies with relevant laws and guidelines. This may include registration with financial institutions, implementation of KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) procedures.
**Choosing the right technical stack
**Choose a strong technical stack to develop your exchange. Common choices include programming languages like Python or JavaScript and blockchain technologies like Ethereum or Bitcoin. Your technology stack should ensure security, scalability and efficiency so that the platform can handle large events smoothly.
**Security Measures
**Security is paramount in P2P exchange. Enable advanced security features such as two-factor authentication (2FA), end-to-end encryption and multi-signal wallets. Regular information security checks and updates are necessary to protect users' money and data from cyber threats.
**User-friendly interface**
User-friendly interface attracts and retains users. Design your platform with intuitive navigation, clear instructions and responsive design. Providing a smooth user experience will encourage more users to trade on your platform, increasing its popularity and usage.
**Payment Methods**
Provide multiple payment methods to meet different user preferences. Common options include bank transfers, credit/debit cards and other cryptocurrencies. Offering different payment methods can make your platform more accessible and convenient for users, improving its appeal.
**Escrow Services**
Integrate an escrow service to protect transactions. In P2P exchanges, escrow holds the cryptocurrency until the terms of the transaction, confirmed by both parties, are met. This minimizes the risk of fraud and increases trust between users, ensuring a smoother business.
**Customer Support**
Reliable customer support is crucial. Provide multiple support channels such as live chat, email and phone support. Responding to user questions and issues increases user satisfaction and trust in your platform. Providing comprehensive FAQs and guides can also help users navigate the platform.
**Marketing and Community Building**
Once your platform is developed, focus on marketing and community building. Use social media, crypto forums and online advertising to reach potential users. Connecting with the crypto community through events, webinars and discussions can also increase your platform's visibility and reputation.
**Conclusion**
Developing a P2P crypto exchange requires careful planning and implementation. Focusing on these ten key areas - understanding P2P exchanges, identifying the market, ensuring regulatory compliance, choosing the right technology, implementing strong security measures, creating a user-friendly interface, offering versatile payment methods, integrating lock-in options, offering excellent. an agreement customer support and marketing effectively.

## Inspiration
As India enters the summer of 2024, it's becoming increasingly clear how crucial tree cover is to our environment. Looking back at the past, when lush greenery was more widespread, we can see a stark contrast to the present, where the decrease in tree cover has resulted in severe heat waves and environmental challenges.
The Past: In previous decades, the Indian landscape was adorned with vast forests and urban greenery, and trees played a crucial role in moderating temperatures, providing shade, and maintaining ecological balance.
Cooler temperatures: Trees absorb sunlight and release moisture into the air through transpiration, significantly cooling the surroundings.
Cleaner air: They act as natural air filters, trapping dust, pollutants, and producing oxygen.
Healthier ecosystems: Forests support biodiversity, providing habitat for countless species and maintaining soil health.
The present: Reduced tree cover and its effects.
Today, rapid urbanization and deforestation have drastically reduced the number of trees across India. This loss has led to numerous adverse effects:
Rising Temperatures: Without sufficient tree cover, urban areas experience the "urban heat island" effect, where concrete and asphalt absorb and retain heat.
Increased Pollution: Fewer trees mean less filtration of pollutants, leading to poorer air quality.
Biodiversity Loss: The destruction of habitats has resulted in the decline of many plant and animal species.
The Way Forward
Understanding the critical role of trees in combating climate change and mitigating heat waves is imperative. To ensure a sustainable future, we must:
Plant More Trees: Engage in massive afforestation and reforestation projects.
Protect Existing Forests: Implement and enforce laws to prevent illegal logging and deforestation.
Urban Greening: Encourage green city spaces, such as parks, green roofs, and community gardens.

Understanding the Requirements:
The first step was to clearly understand the user's request to create a design highlighting the impact of tree cover on summer heat in India, contrasting the past with the present.
Drafting the Content:
I composed an inspirational message that reflects on the historical significance of tree cover, the current issues due to deforestation, and a call to action for the future.
Designing the HTML Structure:
The next step was to structure the content in HTML, ensuring it's logically organized and easy to read.
Styling with CSS:
I applied CSS to enhance the visual appeal of the content, focusing on readability, aesthetics, and highlighting important points.
Iterative Improvements:
Finally, I reviewed and refined both the text and the code, ensuring clarity, coherence, and functionality.
What I Learned
Impact of Trees: Researching and writing about the role of trees in climate regulation reinforced my understanding of their importance in maintaining ecological balance.
Content Structuring: Balancing detailed information with readability is crucial. Breaking down the content into clear, concise sections helps in better communication.
HTML and CSS Styling: Revisiting foundational web development skills reminded me of the importance of clean, semantic HTML and effective CSS styling for presenting information.

1,881,001 | What is the difference between type vs interface in Typescript | Common Both can define a data type. Types aliases in Typescript mean "a new for any... | 0 | 2024-06-08T05:25:35 | https://dev.to/xuanmingl/what-is-the-difference-between-type-vs-interface-in-typescript-2f1i | typescript, webdev, keyword, difference | ## Common
Both can define a data type.
Types aliases in Typescript mean "a new for any type".
```typescript
type MyNumber = number;
type StringOrNumber = string | number;
type User = {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
}
```
An interface defines a contract that an object must adhere to.
```typescript
interface Person {
name: string;
address: string;
}
```
## Difference
### 1. Primitive Type
Primitive types are inbuilt types in TypeScripts. They include number, string, boolean, null, and undefined types.
Type alias can be used to define a alias for a primitive type as below.
```typescript
type MyString = string;
type NullOrUndefined = null | undefined;
```
But, interface can not be used to define a alias for a primitive type.
### 2. Union types
Union types can describe values that can be one of several constant and create unions of various primitive, literal or complex types.
```typescript
type Computer = 'Desktop' | 'Laptop' | 'Tablet';
```
Union type can only be defined using type. Interface cannot define a union type. But it is possible to create a new union type from several interfaces:
```typescript
interface Laptop {
cpu: string;
ram: number;
storage: number;
}
interface SmartPhone {
number: string;
}
type Mobile = Laptop | Phone;
```
## 3. Function types
In Typescript, a function type represents a function's prototype. Type alias defines function prototype like this:
```typescript
type Add = (num1: number, num2: number) => number;
```
You can also use an interface to do samething:
```typescript
interface IAdd {
(num: number, num2: number): number;
}
```
As you can see both type and interface are similar except for a syntax difference. And type is preferred to define a function prototype.
It is also because type has more capability to define function type. Here's an example:
```typescript
type Watch = 'Mechanical' | 'Electrical';
type WindUp = (cycle: number) => void;
type Recharge = () => void;
type RefillWatch<W extends Watch> =
W extends 'Mechanical' ?
WindUp : W extends 'Electrical' ?
Recharge : never;
const windUp: RefillWatch<'Mechanical'> = (watch, cycle) => {
// Something to wind up the spring of the watch
}
const recharge: RefillWatch<'Electrical'> = (watch) => {
// Something to charge the watch
}
```
## 4. Merging of declarations
Merging of declarations is a feature for only interface.
```typescript
interface Computer {
cpu: string;
}
interface Computer {
ram: string;
}
const mine: Computer = {
cpu: 'Core i-9 9900',
ram: '32GB',
};
```
## 5. Extends and intersection
An interface can extend original interface:
```typescript
interface Computer {
cpu: string;
ram: string;
}
interface Laptop extends Computer {
battery: string;
}
```
You can also get same result with type alias:
```typescript
type Computer = {
cpu: string;
ram: string;
}
type Laptop = Computer & {
battery: string;
}
```
You can also extends an interface from a type alias:
```typescript
type Computer = {
cpu: string;
ram: string;
}
interface Laptop extends Computer {
battery: string;
}
```
But you cannot extend an interface from a union type:
```typescript
type Watch = 'Mechanical' | 'Electrical';
interface MoreWatch extends Watch {
brand: string;
}
```
Type aliases can extend interfaces using the intersection like this:
```typescript
interface Watch {
brand: string;
}
Type ElectricWatch = Watch & {
battery: string;
}
```
## 6. Handling conflicts
You cannot extend an interface with same property key like this:
```typescript
interface Watch {
refill: () => void;
}
interface Watch {
refill: (cycle: number) => void;
}
```
But you can extend a type alias with same property key like this:
```typescript
type Person = {
getPermission: (id: string) => string;
};
type Staff = Person & {
getPermission: (id: string[]) => string[];
};
const AdminStaff: Staff = {
getPermission: (id: string | string[]) => {
return (typeof id === 'string' ?
'admin' : ['admin']) as string[] & string;
}
}
```
If you extend a type alias like this, the model property type would not be determined because it can't be both string and number at the same time:
```typescript
type Computer = {
model: string;
};
type Laptop = Computer & {
model: number;
};
// error: Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'never'.(2322)
const mine: Laptop = { model: 'Dell' };
```
## 7. Implementing class
In Typescript, you can implement a class using either an interface or a type alias:
```typescript
interface Person {
name: string;
greet(): void;
}
class Student implements Person {
name: string;
greet() {
console.log('Hello');
}
}
type Pet = {
name: string;
greet(): void;
};
class Cat implements Pet {
name: string;
greet() {
console.log('Mew');
}
}
```
But you cannot implement a class that extends a union type:
```typescript
type Key = { key: number; } | { key: string; };
// can not implement a union type
class PrimaryKey implements Key {
key = 1
}
```
## 8. Tuple type
In Typescript, the tuple type can express an array with a fixed number of elements, while each element has its data type:
```typescript
type State: [name: string; setter: (value: string) => void];
```
If you want to declare a tuple type with an interface, you can do it like this:
```typescript
interface IState extends Array<string | (value: string) => void> {
0: string;
1: (value: string) => void;
}
```
## 9. Benefits of the type alias than the interface
Here's an example of the advanced type feature that the interface cannot achieve:
```typescript
type Person = {
name: string;
address: string;
}
type Getters<T> = {
[K in keyof T as `get${Capitalize<string & K>}`]: () => T[K];
};
type PersonType = Getters<Perso>;
// type PersonType = {
// getName: () => string;
// getAddress: () => string;
// }
```
## Conclusion
In this post, I have explained the features of the type alias and the interface in Typescript.
As above the type alias has more powerful features than the interface. So I recommend to use the type alias when coding. | xuanmingl |

let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry']
let result = fruits.length;
console.log(result);
```
2. **Array.toString()**
```
// The JavaScript method toString() converts an array to a string of (comma separated) array values.
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry']

let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry']
let result = fruits.at(2);
console.log(result);
```
4. **Array.join('whatever')**
```
// join() joins the elements of an array into a string and joins with whatever we insert inside (join()) parentheses
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry'];
let result = fruits.join('-')
console.log(result); // => apple-banana-cherry-date-elderberry
```
5. **Array.pop()**
```
// pop() removes the last element from an array and returns that element
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry'];
let result = fruits.pop()
console.log(result); // => elderberry
console.log(fruits); // => ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date'];
```
6. **Array.push()**
```
// Array.push() adds from the end and shows the length
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry'];
let result = fruits.push('kiwi');
console.log(result); // => 6 ! returns the length
console.log(fruits); // => ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry', 'kiwi']
```
7. **Array.shift()**
```

let result = fruits.unshift('pear');
console.log(result); // => apple
console.log(fruits); // => ['pear', 'apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry']
```
9. **delete array[index]**
```
// delete leaves empty holes in the array therefore use push() or pop()
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry'];
delete fruits[1];
console.log(fruits); // => ['apple', empty, 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry']
```
10. **concat()**
```
// The concat() method creates a new array by merging (concatenating) existing arrays:
const myGirls = ["Cecilie", "Lone"];
const myBoys = ["Emil", "Tobias", "Linus"];
const myChildren = myGirls.concat(myBoys);
```
11. **array.flat()**
```
// The flat() method creates a new array with sub-array elements concatenated to a specified depth.
const myArr = [[1,2],[3,4],[5,6]];
const newArr = myArr.flat();
console.log(newArr); // => [1,2,3,4,5,6]
```
12. **array.splice()**
```
let fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date', 'elderberry'];
fruits.splice(2, 0, 'kiwi') // => ['apple', 'banana', 'kiwi', 'date', 'elderberry'];

1,881,101 | Python Basics 2: Datatypes | Datatype: Every value in Python has a datatype. The datatype is mainly the category of the data.... | 0 | 2024-06-08T05:11:30 | https://dev.to/coderanger08/python-basics-2-datatypes-3b1m | python, programming, beginners, tutorial | **Datatype:**
Every value in Python has a datatype. The datatype is mainly the category of the data. There are basically 5 categories of datatypes; however, these categories have further classifications as well.
**_1.Numeric Type:_**
**a) Integer (int):** positive or negative whole numbers (without a fractional part). Example: 10,-3,10000
**b) Floating point (float):** Any real numbers with 'decimal' points or floating point representation.
Example: -3.14, 10.23
**c) Complex Number:** Combionation of real and imaginary number. Example: 2+3i [we don't use this that much]
**_2.Boolean Type(bool):_** Data with one of the two built-in values True or False. Often used in the comparison operations of logical statements.
Example:
```
x=10
y=15
print(y>x)
#output: True
```
**_3.Sequence Type:_** A sequence is an **ordered** collection of similar or different data types.
**a)String(str):** It is a sequence of ordered characters (alphabets-lower case, upper case, numeric values, special symbols). String is represented with quotation marks (single('), double(''), triple(' ' ', '' '''')).
For example:
using single quotes ('python'),
double quotes ("python") or
triple quotes ('''python''' or """python""")
**b)List:** It is an ordered collection of elements where the elements are separated with a comma (,)and enclosed within square brackets [].
The list can have elements with more than one datatypes.
For example:
i) list with only integers; x= [1, 2, 3] and
ii) a list with mixed data types; y= [110, "CSE110",12.4550, [], None]. Here, 110 is an integer, "CSE110" is a string, 12.4550 is a float, [] is a list, None is NoneType.
**c)Tuple:** It is an ordered collection of elements where the elements are separated with a comma (,) and enclosed within parenthesis().
Example: x= ("apple", "banana", Cherry")
List and Tuple are used to contain multiple values in a single variable.
**Basic difference between List and Tuple:** You can change the values of a list(mutable) but you can't do the same with tuple(immutable) [more about this in later series]
**_4) Mapping Type:_**
**Dictionary:** It's an **unordered** collection of data. It's written as key:value pair form.
Example:
```
cardict= {'brand' : 'Lamborghini' , 'model': 'Aventader', 'year'=2018}
#key #value
print (cardict['model'])
#Output:Avantader
```
**_5)Nonetype(None):_**It refers to a null value or no value at all. It's a special data type with a single value, None.

**Type Function:**
Type() function returns the type of argument(object) passed as a parameter. It's mainly used for debugging(Code correcting) purpose.
To know the type of a variable just write type(variable name)
```
text="Python is awesome"
print(type)
#output:<class 'str'>
```
Example:
type("Hello python") #output: str
type(2024) #output: int
type(3.14) #output: float
type(True) #output: bool
type(None) #output: NoneType
**isinstance function:**
The isinstance() function checks if an object belongs to a specified class or data type.
In the code:
`isinstance(myfloat, float) `
This checks if the variable myfloat is an instance of the float class. If it is, it returns True, otherwise False.
Similarly, for integers:
`isinstance(myint, int)`
This checks if the variable myint is an instance of the int class.

## Search Engines 2.0: Powered by LLMs and Multilingual Voice Search
](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/1*fyOrl4H1ywUT2RJIqhSLhg.jpeg)
Imagine a world where search engines understand your queries as a human would, providing answers that are not just relevant but insightful and deeply contextual. This is the world Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT-4 and their open-source counterparts are ushering in.
In this article, we’ll explore the journey of integrating LLMs into search engines by

Integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) into search engines enhances their ability to understand and respond to user queries by providing more accurate and contextual responses. To further improve search engines, continuous model training on new data, incorporating user feedback, and personalizing search results based on user behavior are essential steps. Additionally, integrating multilingual voice search capabilities makes the search experience more accessible and natural for users worldwide. This involves converting spoken queries into text using Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems, processing the text with the LLM, and converting the LLM’s response back to speech using Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems.
## **The Evolution of Search Engines along with Key Technological Advancements**
Traditional search engines rely on keyword matching and link analysis to deliver results. While effective, this approach often falls short of understanding the nuances of human language. Enter LLMs. These models, trained on vast datasets, possess the ability to grasp context, disambiguate meaning, and generate coherent, relevant responses. By incorporating LLMs, search engines can transition from simple keyword-based retrieval systems to sophisticated conversational agents.
> All of the biggest technological inventions created by man — the airplane, the automobile, the computer — says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness. — ***Mark Kennedy***
1. **1990s: Basic Keyword Matching**
Early search engines like AltaVista and Yahoo! used simple keyword-matching algorithms.
Relied on text-based indexing and retrieval systems.
2. **Late 1990s — Early 2000s: PageRank Algorithm**

## Integrating LLMs into Search Engines: The Blueprint
To integrate an LLM into a search engine, we need to follow a structured approach. Let’s break it down step-by-step:
1. **Data Collection and Preparation**
2. **Model Selection and Training**
3. **API Integration**
4. **User Interface Enhancement**
5. **Continuous Learning and Improvement**
**Step 1: Data Collection and Preparation**
Before diving into the code, we need data. This includes a combination of user queries, relevant documents, and context-aware conversations. For simplicity, we’ll use an open dataset, but in a real-world scenario, the data should be curated to match the domain of the search engine.
import pandas as pd
# Load a sample dataset of queries and responses
data = pd.read_csv('search_queries.csv')
print(data.head())
**Step 2: Model Selection and Training**
Choosing the right LLM is crucial. For this example, we’ll use GPT-4, but you can opt for other models like Vicuna, Koala, or Alpaca. The training process involves fine-tuning the model on our dataset to ensure it understands the context and delivers accurate responses.
from transformers import GPT2Tokenizer, GPT2LMHeadModel, Trainer, TrainingArguments
# Load the tokenizer and model
tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained('gpt-4')
model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained('gpt-4')
# Tokenize the dataset
train_encodings = tokenizer(data['query'].tolist(), truncation=True, padding=True, max_length=128)
val_encodings = tokenizer(data['response'].tolist(), truncation=True, padding=True, max_length=128)
# Define training arguments
training_args = TrainingArguments(
output_dir='./results',
num_train_epochs=3,
per_device_train_batch_size=4,
per_device_eval_batch_size=4,
warmup_steps=500,
weight_decay=0.01,
logging_dir='./logs',
logging_steps=10,
)
# Define trainer
trainer = Trainer(
model=model,
args=training_args,
train_dataset=train_encodings,
eval_dataset=val_encodings,
)
# Train the model
trainer.train()
**Step 3: API Integration**
With our model trained, the next step is to integrate it into a search engine. We’ll create an API endpoint that the search engine can query to get responses from the LLM.
from fastapi import FastAPI, Request
from pydantic import BaseModel
import torch
app = FastAPI()
class Query(BaseModel):
text: str
@app.post("/search")
async def search(query: Query):
inputs = tokenizer(query.text, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(inputs["input_ids"], max_length=150)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
return {"response": response}
if __name__ == "__main__":
import uvicorn
uvicorn.run(app, host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)
**Step 4: User Interface Enhancement**
The API is now ready to serve intelligent responses. Enhancing the user interface to support conversational search can significantly improve user engagement. We’ll use a simple web interface to demonstrate this.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>LLM-Powered Search Engine</title>
<script>
async function search() {
const query = document.getElementById("query").value;
const response = await fetch("http://localhost:8000/search", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify({ text: query })
});
const result = await response.json();
document.getElementById("response").innerText = result.response;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>LLM-Powered Search Engine</h1>
<input type="text" id="query" placeholder="Ask me anything...">
<button onclick="search()">Search</button>
<p id="response"></p>
</body>
</html>
**Step 5: Continuous Learning and Improvement**
The integration is just the beginning. To maintain relevance and accuracy, the model should continuously learn from new data and user interactions. Implementing feedback loops and periodic retraining are essential for sustained performance.

## Multilingual Voice-Enabled Search with LLM Integration
Let’s walk through the code to add multilingual voice search capabilities to our LLM-powered search engine.
1. **Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)**: Convert voice input to text.
2. **LLM Processing**: Process the text query using an LLM.
3. **Text-to-Speech (TTS)**: Convert the LLM’s text response back to speech.
For ASR, we’ll use a pre-trained model from the transformers library, and for TTS, we'll use a library like gTTS (Google Text-to-Speech) which supports multiple languages.
# Install the necessary libraries
# !pip install transformers gtts SpeechRecognition
import speech_recognition as sr
from transformers import GPT2Tokenizer, GPT2LMHeadModel
from gtts import gTTS
import os
# Load the tokenizer and model
tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained('gpt-4')
model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained('gpt-4')
# Initialize the recognizer
recognizer = sr.Recognizer()
def recognize_speech_from_mic(language='en-US'):
with sr.Microphone() as source:
print("Please say something...")
audio = recognizer.listen(source)
try:
text = recognizer.recognize_google(audio, language=language)
print(f"You said: {text}")
return text
except sr.UnknownValueError:
print("Google Speech Recognition could not understand audio")
return ""
except sr.RequestError:
print("Could not request results from Google Speech Recognition service")
return ""
def respond_with_tts(response_text, language='en'):
tts = gTTS(text=response_text, lang=language)
tts.save("response.mp3")
os.system("mpg321 response.mp3")
# Main loop for multilingual voice-enabled search
while True:
# Set language for ASR and TTS
language_code = input("Enter language code (e.g., 'en-US' for English, 'fr-FR' for French): ").strip()
query = recognize_speech_from_mic(language=language_code)
if query:
inputs = tokenizer(query, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(inputs["input_ids"], max_length=150)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(f"Response: {response}")
respond_with_tts(response, language=language_code.split('-')[0])
* **Multilingual ASR Setup**: We use the speech_recognition library to capture and recognize speech from the microphone in multiple languages.
* recognizer.recognize_google(audio, language=language): Converts audio input to text using Google's ASR service, with the specified language.
* **LLM Processing**: The recognized text is processed by the LLM to generate a response.
* tokenizer(query, return_tensors="pt"): Tokenizes the input query.
* model.generate(inputs["input_ids"], max_length=150): Generates a response using the LLM.
* **Multilingual TTS Setup**: The generated response is converted back to speech using gTTS, which supports multiple languages.
* gTTS(text=response_text, lang=language): Converts text to speech in the specified language.
* os.system("mpg321 response.mp3"): Plays the speech output.
This integration creates a seamless multilingual voice-enabled search experience, leveraging the natural language understanding capabilities of LLMs to provide more intuitive and user-friendly interactions across different languages. By continuously refining the model with new data and incorporating user feedback, the search engine can become even more accurate and personalized over time.
## **Importance of LLMs in Search Engines**

##Visual Models Promote Discussion and Planning
Creating visual diagrams of the desired modular architecture serves several important purposes during a migration from a monolithic application. First, the diagrams promote productive discussions among stakeholders, including business leaders, architects, and development teams. As various options are explored, the groups can align on natural seams in the monolith that correspond to business capabilities.
These visualization techniques also help the organization plan the migration in iterative stages. Rather than a risky "big bang" rewrite, the teams can coordinate a gradual transition of one capability at a time. The diagrams provide blueprints to extract services and data stores methodically while preventing wide-scale downtime that would disrupt users.
In addition, the visual models set the stage for monitoring dependencies between components over time. As the architecture diversifies with cloud-native deployment patterns such as containers and serverless functions, understanding connections across services becomes essential. The diagrams created early on can be evolved as a map to manage the growing complexity of the landscape.
In summary, diagramming the current and future application structure is invaluable for visualizing, strategizing, and ultimately coordinating a successful migration.
##Architecture Diagrams Have Broad Practical Value
For large, complex business applications, diagrams enable teams to decompose the system progressively along business boundaries. For smaller, modern cloud-native applications, visual models help developers build modular, scalable architectures.
Across various contexts, architecture diagrams provide a common language for technical and non-technical stakeholders to discuss designs. The visual narrative promotes shared understanding among team members with diverse perspectives and priorities.
Additionally, the diagrams give organizations the ability to map out transition plans in sync with business roadmaps. By outlining capabilities and dependencies, teams can strategically schedule incremental changes while minimizing risk.
Over time, architecture diagrams form lasting artifacts that document the evolving structure of systems. As new technologies and deployment patterns emerge, these maps can be updated to track changes. They become invaluable resources for onboarding team members and keeping sight of the big picture.
##Conclusion
As software systems grow more complex and interconnected, visualization techniques become critical for understanding and evolving architectures.
For any sophisticated software initiative, architecture diagrams offer an essential visual narrative. They align perspectives, capture design decisions, highlight dependencies, and create living references.
By leveraging architecture diagrams, engineering leaders can make judicious technical decisions. Development teams can build modular, resilient systems. And stakeholders can share a common vision for the application’s structure and roadmap.

Setting Up a WebAssembly Project
Setting up a WebAssembly (Wasm) project involves several key steps that ensure a smooth integration with modern web applications. The following procedure outlines the essential steps required to configure and initiate a WebAssembly project efficiently.
1. Install Emscripten SDK: Emscripten is a widely-used toolchain for compiling C/C++ code to WebAssembly. Install the Emscripten SDK by following these steps:
Download and install the SDK:
```
git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git
cd emsdk
./emsdk install latest
./emsdk activate latest
```
source ./emsdk_env.sh
Ensure the environment is correctly set up for compiling WebAssembly.
2. Write Source Code: Create the source code in C, C++, or Rust. For instance, a simple C++ function:
```
#include <iostream>
extern "C" {
int add(int a, int b) {
return a + b;
}
}
```
3. Compile to WebAssembly: Use Emscripten to compile the source code into a WebAssembly binary and accompanying JavaScript glue code:
Example command to compile C/C++ code:
emcc add.cpp -s WASM=1 -o add.js
For Rust, use the wasm-pack tool:
wasm-pack build --target web
4. Set Up Web Server: To serve the WebAssembly code, a local web server is needed. Options include:
Simple HTTP server in Python:
python -m http.server 8080
Node.js-based server:
npm install -g http-server
http-server -c-1
5. Create HTML and JavaScript: Develop an HTML file to load and interact with the WebAssembly module.
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Wasm Demo</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="add.js"></script>
<script>
Module.onRuntimeInitialized = () => {
const result = Module._add(2, 3);
console.log(`Result: ${result}`); // Output: Result: 5
};
</script>
</body>
</html>
```
6. Test and Deploy: After setting up the project components, test the functionality in a browser. Ensure that WebAssembly is loaded, and function calls execute correctly. Finalise the setup by deploying the project to a production server.
By following these steps, developers ensure that their WebAssembly projects are correctly configured and optimally integrated into modern web applications.
Integrating WebAssembly with JavaScript
Integrating WebAssembly (Wasm) with JavaScript involves leveraging the strengths of both languages to create high-performance web applications. Wasm modules can co-exist with JavaScript, enhancing the efficiency of computational heavy tasks. Developers generally follow a systematic process to achieve seamless integration between the two.
Loading Wasm Modules: The WebAssembly JavaScript API provides the WebAssembly.instantiate method to load and instantiate Wasm modules. This method accepts binary code, typically recommended to be fetched using the Fetch API, followed by compilation and instantiation.
```
async function loadWasmModule(url, importObject) {
const response = await fetch(url);
const buffer = await response.arrayBuffer();
const wasmModule = await WebAssembly.instantiate(buffer, importObject);
return wasmModule.instance;
}
```
Importing Functions: Wasm modules can import JavaScript functions. This interplay allows Wasm to call JavaScript functions directly. Import objects contain key-value pairs where keys are the names of imports declared in the Wasm module and values are their corresponding JavaScript functions.
```
const importObject = {
env: {
jsFunction: function(arg) {
console.log(arg);
}
}
};
```
Calling Wasm Functions: Exported Wasm functions can be called from JavaScript. Once the Wasm module is instantiated, JavaScript can invoke these functions directly. Wasm functions usually provide higher performance for compute-intensive operations.
```
(async () => {
const wasmInstance = await loadWasmModule('module.wasm', importObject);
wasmInstance.exports.wasmFunction();
})();
```
Memory Management: Shared memory between Wasm and JavaScript involves the use of WebAssembly.Memory object. It allows both to read and write to a common memory space. This capability ensures efficient data exchange and manipulation without redundant copies.
```
const memory = new WebAssembly.Memory({initial: 1});
const importObject = {
env: {
memory: memory
}
};
```
Integrating WebAssembly with JavaScript is a paradigm that synthesizes the computational power of Wasm with the flexibility of JavaScript. This hybrid approach is increasingly important in modern web development, enabling developers to build robust, efficient, and high-performance applications. The method outlined represents a fundamental, yet sophisticated, strategy for effective Wasm-JavaScript synergy.
Performance Benefits of WebAssembly
WebAssembly (Wasm) offers significant performance benefits, making it a powerful tool for modern web applications. These advantages arise due to its design principles and execution model.
Near-Native Performance: Wasm code is compiled to a binary format, enabling the execution of code at speeds close to native applications. This is a stark contrast to JavaScript, which is interpreted and often less efficient.
Optimised Memory Usage: WebAssembly uses a compact and efficient binary representation, which leads to smaller file sizes and reduced memory footprint. This allows faster loading times and reduced bandwidth usage, enhancing user experience.
Parallel Execution: Wasm supports multi-threading, allowing applications to perform parallel processing tasks using Web Workers. This is particularly beneficial for performance-intensive applications such as scientific simulations and video rendering.

* Redis lists serve as message queues, supporting operations like pushing new messages and popping the oldest ones.
* This is useful in scenarios requiring order-preserving and reliable message delivery, such as task queues and chat applications.
## Sorted Sets (ZSets)
1) **Rank/Leaderboard** 🏆
* Redis sorted sets maintain score-based rankings, making them ideal for leaderboards in gaming applications.
* They support efficient range queries to quickly retrieve top or bottom-ranked elements, ensuring up-to-date and accurate rankings.
Redis's versatility and high performance make it a go-to solution for a wide range of application requirements. Whether it's managing sessions, caching data, or implementing distributed locks, Redis proves to be an invaluable tool in modern application development. Its diverse data structures cater to specific use cases, making development more efficient and effective.

Today, we're going to get Node.js up and running on your computer. Here's how:
1. **Download Node.js:** Go to the official Node.js website (https://nodejs.org/) and download the version that's right for your computer. If you're not sure which one to choose, the LTS (Long-Term Support) version is usually a safe bet.
2. **Install Node.js:** Once the download is complete, open the installer and follow the instructions to install Node.js on your computer. It's a pretty straightforward process, just like installing any other software.
3. **Verify Installation:** After installation, open your command prompt (if you're using Windows) or terminal (if you're using macOS or Linux). Type the following command and hit Enter:
```
node -v
```
This command checks if Node.js is installed correctly and shows you the version number. If you see a version number printed out, congratulations! Node.js is installed on your computer.
That's it for today! Tomorrow, we'll dive into writing your first Node.js script. Let me know if you have any questions or if you're ready to move on to Day 3! | learn_with_santosh |

## What is a Repository? <a name="repository"></a>
A **repository** contains all of your project's files, revision history, and collaborator discussion. You can use repositories to manage your work, track changes, store revision history and work with others. Before we dive too deep, let’s first start with how to create a repository.
<br>
## How to create a repository <a name="create a repository"></a>
You can create a new repository on your personal account or any organization where you have sufficient permissions.
Let’s tackle creating a repository from [github.com](https://github.com/).
1. In the upper-right corner of any page, use the drop-down menu, and select New repository.

2. Use the Owner dropdown menu to select the account you want to own the repository.

3. Type a name for your repository, and an optional description.

4. Add Description to the repository (optional)

5. Choose a repository visibility.
* Public repositories are accessible to everyone on the internet.
* Private repositories are only accessible to you, people you explicitly share access with, and, for organization repositories, certain organization members.

6. Enable _Add a README file_

7. Click Create repository and congratulations! You just created a repository!
Next up, let’s review how to add files to your repository.
<br>
## Adding files to a repository <a name="add a file"></a>
Files in **GitHub** can do a handful of things, but the main purpose of files is to store data and information about your project.
Let’s review how to add a file to your repository.
But before we begin, it is worth knowing in order to add a file to a repository you must first have minimum Write access within the repository you want to add a file.
1. On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository.
2. In your repository, browse to the folder where you want to create a file.
3. Above the list of files, select the Add file ᐁ dropdown menu, then click ᐩ Create new file.

4. In the file name field, type the name and extension for the file. To create subdirectories, type the / directory separator.

5. In the file contents text box, type content for the file.
6. To review the new content, above the file contents, click Preview.

7. Click Commit changes...
8. In the "Commit message" field, type a short, meaningful commit message that describes the change you made to the file. You may provide _Extended description_ to the commit.
9. You can attribute the commit to more than one author in the commit message.
10. If you have more than one email address associated with your account on GitHub.com, click the email address drop-down menu and select the email address to use as the Git author email address. Only verified email addresses appear in this drop-down menu. If you enabled email address privacy, then [username]@users.noreply.github.com is the default commit author email address.

11. Below the _Extended description_ field, decide whether to add your commit to the current branch or to a new branch. If your current branch is the default branch, you should choose to create a new branch for your commit and then create a pull request.

12. Click Commit changes or Propose changes.
Congratulations you just created a new file in your repository! You have also created a new branch and made a commit!
<br>
### Uploading files
1. On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository.
2. In your repository, browse to the folder where you want to create a file.
3. Above the list of files, select the Add file ᐁ dropdown menu, then click ᐩ Upload files.

4. Upload files either by using _drag and drop_ or select using _Choose your files_ feature.

5. In the Commit Changes tab,

* In the "Commit message" field, type a short, meaningful commit message that describes the change you made to the file. You may provide _Extended description_ to the commit.
* Below the _Extended description_ field, decide whether to add your commit to the current branch or to a new branch. If your current branch is the default branch, you should choose to create a new branch for your commit and then create a pull request.
6. Click Commit changes or Propose changes.
Congratulations you just created a new file in your repository! You have also created a new branch and made a commit!
**_We will discuss about pull request in coming posts_**.
<br>
<br>
## How to fork a repository <a name="fork a repository"></a>
**Demonstrated [repository](https://github.com/skills/introduction-to-github)**
1. Navigate to the Repository which we need to fork
2. In the Header part of the repository select fork option

3. Modify the fields only if necessary for better understandability.(Here we are not modifying any fields)

4. Here we are having an option called _Copy the **main** branch only_
* This refers to copy only the main branch and then contribute back to the original Repository.
5. Click on Create fork
Congratulations you just created a Copy of [repository](https://github.com/skills/introduction-to-github)!.

1,881,038 | Enhancing ECR Security: Scheduled Automated Container Scans and Slack Notifications | When deploying environments on AWS ECS Fargate, it is essential to integrate container image... | 0 | 2024-06-08T04:12:22 | https://dev.to/suzuki0430/enhancing-ecr-security-scheduled-automated-container-scans-and-slack-notifications-3aki | security, aws, devops, beginners | When deploying environments on AWS ECS Fargate, it is essential to integrate container image vulnerability scanning into your CI pipeline. Initially, we integrated Trivy and Dockle for this purpose. However, to address security risks that could arise between releases, we further developed a system to periodically scan ECR images and notify the results through Slack.

This setup leverages basic AWS resources such as Lambda, EventBridge, S3, and IAM roles, making it easily replicable for anyone with basic AWS experience. We also provide the Terraform code needed for implementation.
For those interested in the initial integration of Trivy and Dockle into the CI, please refer to my previous articles:
- [Mastering Secure CI/CD for ECS with GitHub Actions](https://dev.to/suzuki0430/building-a-secure-cicd-workflow-for-ecs-with-github-actions-gde)
## Implementation
ECR provides a feature to scan images at the time of push, but we've configured a system using Lambda and EventBridge to automate this scan weekly (every Monday at 10:00 AM JST).
In addition, we decided to utilize ZIP deployment for Lambda due to its cost-effectiveness compared to Docker deployment using ECR. The .zip archive necessary for Lambda deployment is stored in an S3 bucket.
The documentation for deploying Lambda functions from a Docker deployment and ZIP deployment can be found here:
- [AWS Documentation on Docker deployment](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/python-image.html#python-image-clients)
- [AWS Documentation on ZIP deployment](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/python-package.html)

├── Dockerfile # Dockerfile for the Lambda environment
├── requirements.txt # List of Python dependencies
└── build.sh # Script to build the Docker image and create the ZIP archive
```
## Lambda Function
The Lambda function performs security scans on the latest ECR image and notifies the results on Slack. If it detects vulnerabilities rated as `CRITICAL` or `HIGH`, it links them directly in the Slack message, enabling instant access to the CVE details.
```python
import os
import boto3
import requests
from botocore.exceptions import ClientError
def lambda_handler(event, context):
ecr_client = boto3.client('ecr')
repository_name = os.environ['REPOSITORY_NAME']
slack_webhook_url = os.environ['SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL_ECR_WEEKLY_SECURITY_SCAN']
# Retrieve the latest image
try:
response = ecr_client.describe_images(
repositoryName=repository_name,
filter={'tagStatus': 'TAGGED'}
)
except ClientError as e:
print(f"Error retrieving images: {e}")
raise e
images = response.get('imageDetails', [])
if not images:
print("No images found.")
return {'statusCode': 200, 'body': 'No images found.'}
latest_image = max(images
, key=lambda x: x['imagePushedAt'])
image_digest = latest_image['imageDigest']
# Get scan results
try:
scan_results = ecr_client.describe_image_scan_findings(
repositoryName=repository_name,
imageId={'imageDigest': image_digest}
)
except ClientError as e:
print(f"Error retrieving scan findings: {e}")
raise e
findings = scan_results['imageScanFindings']['findings']
# Format the message
if not findings:
message = f"No findings for image {repository_name}@{image_digest}"
else:
message = f"*Findings for image {repository_name}@{image_digest}:*\n\n"
max_len_cve_id = max(len(finding['name']) for finding in findings) + 2
max_len_severity = max(len(finding['severity'])
for finding in findings) + 2
for finding in findings:
cve_id = finding['name']
severity = finding['severity']
if severity in ['CRITICAL', 'HIGH']:
cve_id = f"<{cve_url(cve_id)}|{cve_id}>"
severity = f"*{severity}*"
message += f"{cve_id.ljust(max_len_cve_id)} {severity.ljust(max_len_severity)}\n"
# Send message to Slack
response = requests.post(slack_webhook_url, json={"text": message})
if response.status_code != 200:
raise ValueError(
f"Request to Slack returned an error {response.status_code}, the response is:\n{response.text}")
return {
'statusCode': 200,
'body': 'Security scan completed successfully'
}
def cve_url(cve_id):
return f"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/{cve_id}"
```
### Automatic ZIP Archive Creation
The following script builds a Docker container, extracts its contents, and packages them into a ZIP file. This archive, named `ecr-weekly-security-scan.zip`, is then uploaded to the aforementioned S3 bucket.
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Build the Docker image
docker build -t ecr-weekly-security-scan-build .
# Create a container from the image
container_id=$(docker create ecr-weekly-security-scan-build)
# Copy the contents of the container to a local directory
docker cp $container_id:/var/task ./package
# Clean up
docker rm $container_id
# Zip the contents of the local directory
cd package
zip -r ../ecr-weekly-security-scan.zip .
cd ..
# Clean up
rm -rf package
```
The `requirements.txt` and `Dockerfile` are defined as follows:
```requirements.txt
boto3
requests
```
```Dockerfile
FROM public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.12
# Install Python dependencies
COPY requirements.txt /var/task/
RUN pip install -r /var/task/requirements.txt --target /var/task
# Copy the Lambda function code
COPY app.py /var/task/
# Set the working directory
WORKDIR /var/task
# Set the CMD to your handler
CMD ["app.lambda_handler"]
```
### Function Deployment
This Terraform code deploys the Lambda function using the created ZIP archive. Environment variables are passed from Terraform to Lambda, which are utilized during the function's execution.
```terraform
resource "aws_lambda_function" "ecr_weekly_security_scan" {
function_name = "ecr-weekly-security-scan"
s3_bucket = var.s3_bucket_lambda_functions_storage_bucket
s3_key = "ecr-weekly-security-scan.zip"
handler = "app.lambda_handler"
runtime = "python3.12"
role = var.iam_role_ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role_arn
timeout = 300 # 5 minutes
environment {
variables = {
REPOSITORY_NAME = "example-ecr-dev"
SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL_ECR_WEEKLY_SECURITY_SCAN = var.slack_webhook_url_ecr_weekly_security_scan
}
}
}
```
### Variable and Output Definitions
The project settings are managed with `variables.tf` and `outputs.tf`, outlined as follows:
```variables.tf
variable "s3_bucket_lambda_functions_storage_bucket" {
description = "The S3 bucket containing the Lambda function code"
type = string
}
variable "iam_role_ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role_arn" {
description = "The ARN of the Lambda execution role"
type = string
}
variable "slack_webhook_url_ecr_weekly_security_scan" {
description = "The URL of the Slack webhook to post messages to"
type = string
sensitive = true
}
```
```outputs.tf
output "lambda_function_ecr_weekly_security_scan_arn" {
value = aws_lambda_function.ecr_weekly_security_scan.arn
}
output "lambda_function_ecr_weekly_security_scan_name" {
value = aws_lambda_function.ecr_weekly_security_scan.function_name
}
output "lambda_function_ecs_task_scheduler_arn" {
value = aws_lambda_function.ecs_task_scheduler.arn
}
output "lambda_function_ecs_task_scheduler_name" {
value = aws_lambda_function.ecs_task_scheduler.function_name
}
```
## S3 Creation
An S3 bucket is created to store the Lambda function's ZIP archive. Since the bucket name must be globally unique, it should be appropriately named.
```terraform
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "lambda_functions_storage" {
bucket = "unique-lambda-functions-storage" # Ensure the name is unique
}
```
### Output Definition
The bucket name is defined in the `outputs.tf` to facilitate references from within the Lambda function's `main.tf`.
```outputs.tf
output "s3_bucket_lambda_functions_storage_bucket" {
value = aws_s3_bucket.lambda_functions_storage.bucket
}
```
## IAM Role
An execution role for the Lambda function is created to allow access to ECR for retrieving image and scan result details. Policies `ecr:DescribeImages` and `ecr:DescribeImageScanFindings` are attached to this role.
```terraform
resource "aws_iam_role" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role" {
name = "ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role"
assume_role_policy = jsonencode({
Version = "2012-10-17"
Statement = [{
Action = "sts:AssumeRole"
Effect = "Allow"
Principal = {
Service = "lambda.amazonaws.com"
}
}]
})
}
resource "aws_iam_role_policy_attachment" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_basic_execution" {
role = aws_iam_role.ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role.name
policy_arn = "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/service-role/AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole"
}
resource "aws_iam_policy" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_ecr_policy" {
name = "ecr_weekly_security_scan_ecr_policy"
description = "Policy to allow Lambda to access ECR for scanning images"
policy = jsonencode({
Version = "2012-10-17"
Statement = [
{
Effect = "Allow"
Action = [
"ecr:DescribeImages",
"ecr:DescribeImageScanFindings"
]
Resource = "*" # It is recommended to limit this to specific resource ARNs if possible
}
]
})
}
resource "aws_iam_role_policy_attachment" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_ecr_policy" {
role = aws_iam_role.ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role.name
policy_arn = aws_iam_policy.ecr_weekly_security_scan_ecr_policy.arn
}
```
### Output Definition
The ARN of the IAM role is set as an output to facilitate references from other Terraform configurations or external systems.
```outputs.tf
output "iam_role_ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role_arn" {
value = aws_iam_role.ecr_weekly_security_scan_lambda_exec_role.arn
}
```
## EventBridge Configuration
Using EventBridge, we set up a schedule to periodically scan ECR container images. Since the schedule is set in UTC, adjustments must be made for local time zones, such as JST.
### Setting Up the EventBridge Rule
Using a cron expression, we configure a rule to trigger the Lambda function every Monday at 1 AM UTC (10 AM JST).
```terraform
resource "aws_cloudwatch_event_rule" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_schedule" {
name = "ECRWeeklySecurityScanSchedule"
schedule_expression = "cron(0 1 ? * MON *)" # 1 AM UTC, which is 10 AM JST
}
```
### Configuring the EventBridge Target
The Lambda function is registered as a target based on the schedule defined in the rule.
```terraform
resource "aws_cloudwatch_event_target" "ecr_weekly_security_scan_target" {
rule = aws_cloudwatch_event_rule.ecr_weekly_security_scan_schedule.name
target_id = "ecrWeeklySecurityScan"
arn = var.lambda_function_ecr_weekly_security_scan_arn
}
```
### Granting Invocation Permissions to Lambda
Permissions are set to safely allow EventBridge to trigger the Lambda function. This configuration is essential to enable direct triggering of the Lambda function by EventBridge.
```terraform
resource "aws_lambda_permission" "ecr
_weekly_security_scan_allow_eventbridge" {
statement_id = "AllowExecutionFromEventBridge"
action = "lambda:InvokeFunction"
function_name = var.lambda_function_ecr_weekly_security_scan_name
principal = "events.amazonaws.com"
source_arn = aws_cloudwatch_event_rule.ecr_weekly_security_scan_schedule.arn
}
```
## Additional Information: Slack Webhook URL Reference
To set up automated notifications on Slack, you need to create an application through the Slack API and enable Incoming Webhooks. The Webhook URL can be found in the Incoming Webhooks section of the Slack app configuration page. This URL is used in the Lambda function to send scan results to the designated Slack channel.

## Conclusion
This guide has demonstrated how to automate ECS on Fargate security scans and notify teams via Slack, utilizing AWS Lambda, EventBridge, S3, and IAM with Terraform for seamless integration. This system enhances security practices by ensuring continuous vulnerability management in the development lifecycle. Adopting such automated processes is crucial for maintaining robust security and operational efficiency in cloud environments. | suzuki0430 |

It has been... | 0 | 2024-06-08T03:57:41 | https://dev.to/rafi993/getting-spell-checker-working-in-neovim-2375 | neovim, vscode, editor, tools | I have used lot of editors over the years. For the last 5 years I have been using VSCode. It has been a great editor. It initially was quite slow but has improved over the years. And the ecosystem itself has a lot of plugins. Potentially making it close to a general purpose IDE. Which is pretty great if you are looking for a single editor that can pretty much work with everything and has support for new thing that comes up out of the box without any configuration without using a full fledged IDE
## Using minimal tools
Over the years I have started to believe that having a minimal set of handpicked tools that you know well so that it doesn't get in your way is better than having a batman utility belt that can do everything by default. Minimal tools doesn't mean using notepad out on a touch screen without keyboard 😅. But more like using a focused tool that is sophisticated enough to do what you want easily and should be extendable in the future if you need it to be
## Choosing the editor
While VSCode is awesome it has been slowly turning into an IDE and has a lot of things by default that I don't need. I wouldn't be surprised if 5 years down the lane they try to replace Visual studio with VSCode. Also I would I have been thinking about switching to something simpler that can serve me well for the next decade. Here is list of things I think I need in a text editor
- It should be fast
- It should be very minimal just enough to serve my editing needs
- It should be extendible in-case I need to do something more in the future
- It should work everywhere
- It should be able to survive the test of time and not be abandoned in the next few years
I initially thought of Sublime Text. Which is a great editor. But it is frozen in time, it does get updates now and then. While it is extendible to some extent but not everything is up for change.
Then I thought of VIM which is something that I tried briefly in the past for sometime
- It was blazingly fast
- It was minimal by default but can be extended to do anything
- It definitely works everywhere
- It has been around for a long time and will be around for a long time
But Vimscript was awful. I really wished it used a general purpose programming language for writing plugins instead of some arcane scripting language. But a lot has changed since then now we have Neovim which has all the goodness of Vim but with a modern plugin system that uses Lua. A general purpose programming language that is easy to learn and use. Once you get the hang of it VIM motions are awesome. You can take them to any editor. There is even a browser [extension](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/vimium/dbepggeogbaibhgnhhndojpepiihcmeb) that lets you use VIM motions to navigate the web.
I have been using Neovim for the last few weeks with minimal setup and I am loving it. Let's see how it goes.

1,881,033 | Can you explain how LPPE works to protect users' location data from precise tracking? | LPPE (Location Privacy Protection Extension) is a technology designed to safeguard users' location... | 0 | 2024-06-08T03:54:00 | https://dev.to/richerdjames/can-you-explain-how-lppe-works-to-protect-users-location-data-from-precise-tracking-afp | [LPPE](https://techboltify.com/what-is-the-lppe-service-android/) (Location Privacy Protection Extension) is a technology designed to safeguard users' location privacy by preventing precise tracking. Here's how LPPE works to protect users' location data:
## **How LPPE Protects Location Data:**
## **Obfuscation of Location Data:**
LPPE operates by obfuscating or altering the precise location data before it's shared with apps or services. Instead of providing exact GPS coordinates, LPPE introduces randomization or fuzziness to the location information.
## **Randomization Techniques:**
LPPE employs various randomization techniques such as adding noise or jitter to the GPS coordinates. This makes it difficult for third parties to accurately pinpoint the user's exact location.
## **Grid-based Privacy Zones:**
LPPE may divide the geographic area into grid cells and report the user's location as the center of a randomly selected cell rather than the precise location. This method adds a level of anonymity to the user's whereabouts.
## **Temporal Randomization:**
LPPE can introduce temporal randomization by delaying or randomizing the updates of location data. This prevents continuous tracking by introducing variability in location updates.
## **Selective Precision:**
LPPE allows users to control the precision of location data shared with different apps. Users can choose to provide precise location information to trusted apps while obfuscating it for others, enhancing privacy.
## **Client-Side Processing:**
LPPE processes location data locally on the device, ensuring that the obfuscated data is transmitted to servers or apps. This reduces the risk of sensitive location data being intercepted during transmission.
## **Benefits of LPPE:**
**Enhanced Privacy**: LPPE protects users' location privacy by making it harder for unauthorized parties to track their precise whereabouts.
**Balanced Utility:** LPPE maintains the utility of location-based services while adding a layer of privacy protection, allowing users to enjoy location services without compromising privacy.
**User Control:** LPPE gives users more control over their location data by allowing them to choose the level of precision they want to share with different apps.
**Mitigating Location Tracking Risks:** LPPE reduces the risk of location-based tracking for purposes like targeted advertising or unauthorized surveillance.
## **Conclusion:**
LPPE plays a crucial role in preserving users' location privacy in an era where location data is extensively utilized by apps and services. By obfuscating or randomizing location data, LPPE prevents precise tracking while still allowing users to benefit from location-based services. It offers users greater control over their privacy and helps mitigate potential risks associated with location tracking. | richerdjames | |

canonical_url: https://tech.forums.softwareag.com/t/centralizing-log-collection-for-webmethods-is-with-grafana-loki/296741/1
---
## Introduction
Observability is now a critical component of modern industry. In this article, we will delve into a crucial aspect of observability: the aggregation of webMethods Integration Server logs into a unified logging system using Loki and visualizing them in real-time with Grafana dashboards for monitoring and analysis. We will employ Promtail for log capturing.
### Architecture
In the architecture diagram below, there are three webMethods Integration Server deployments. Each deployment incorporates a Promtail instance, which serves as a log collecting agent, running as a sidecar within the same pod as the Integration Server container. These Promtail instances collect logs from their respective Integration Server deployments. Subsequently, the collected logs are then forwarded to Loki, a log aggregation system. In the Grafana dashboard, Loki is configured as a data source, enabling further analysis of the logs.

### Steps to Collect Logs from webMethods Integration Servers Running in a Kubernetes Environment
We will use Helm charts to deploy all the components—Grafana Loki, Grafana, Prometheus, and webMethods Integration Server—in a Kubernetes cluster. This deployment can be accomplished in two steps:
1. Install the loki-Stack
2. Create helm chart for IS with promtail running as a sidecar
#### Install Loki-Stack
1. Add the helm-chart repo. The Loki-Stack Helm Chart is a package that allows you to deploy Grafana Loki, along with its dependencies, using Helm, which is a package manager for Kubernetes.
```
helm repo add grafana https://grafana.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update
```
2. By default, Grafana is disabled. To enable Grafana, edit the configuration file. You will also see configurations for Fluentd, Prometheus, and other components. Modify the file according to your requirements. An example of `loki-stack-values.yaml` is shown below.
```
helm show values grafana/loki-stack > loki-stack-values.yaml
loki:
enabled: true
isDefault: true
url: http://{{(include "loki.serviceName" .)}}:{{ .Values.loki.service.port }}
readinessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /ready
port: http-metrics
initialDelaySeconds: 45
livenessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /ready
port: http-metrics
initialDelaySeconds: 45
datasource:
jsonData: "{}"
uid: ""
promtail:
enabled: true
config:
logLevel: info
serverPort: 3101
clients:
- url: http://{{ .Release.Name }}:3100/loki/api/v1/push
grafana:
enabled: true
sidecar:
datasources:
label: ""
labelValue: ""
enabled: true
maxLines: 1000
image:
tag: 10.3.3
```
3. Create a namespace and install the loki-stack in it.
```
kubectl create namespace <namespace name>
helm install loki-stack grafana/loki-stack --namespace <namespace> -f <stack-value>.yaml
```
4. To log in to Grafana, you need to port-forward the Grafana port to access the Grafana dashboard from your localhost and retrieve the password from the secret. Follow the steps below:
```
# Port forward grafana :
kubectl -n <namespace> port-forward service/loki-stack-grafana 3000:80
# Get the password from the secret to login to grafana dashboard
kubectl -n <namespace> get secret loki-stack-grafana -o yaml
echo "<replace this with base64 encoded value from the above command>" | base64 -d
```
#### Create a Helm chart for the Integration Server (IS) with Promtail running as a sidecar.
1. Now that the loki-stack in configured, its time to create a helm-chart for Integration Server.
```
helm create is-chart
```
2. Create a `deployment.yaml` file with the Integration Server (IS) and Promtail running as a sidecar. Here is an example of the `deployment.yaml` file. In this configuration, the Integration server is pulled from the Docker registry `softwareag/webmethods-microservicesruntime:10.15.0.10-slim` and mounts the IS logs folder `/opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs`, allowing Promtail to collect logs from IS. With `-config.expand-env=true` enabled, Promtail dynamically replaces `${POD_NAME}` with the actual value of the `POD_NAME`, enabling dynamic configuration when there are multiple IS deployments.
```
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: is-deployment
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: is
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: is
spec:
containers:
- name: is-container
image: softwareag/webmethods-microservicesruntime:10.15.0.10-slim
imagePullPolicy: Always
ports:
- containerPort: 5555
- containerPort: 8091
securityContext:
runAsUser: 0 # Running as root
volumeMounts:
- name: is-logs
mountPath: /opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs
# Sidecar container for Promtail
- name: promtail
image: grafana/promtail:2.9.3
args:
- -config.file=/etc/promtail/promtail-config.yaml
- -client.url=http://loki-stack:3100/loki/api/v1/push
- -config.expand-env=true
env:
- name: POD_NAME
value: "is-one"
volumeMounts:
- name: is-logs
mountPath: /opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs
- name: config-volume
mountPath: /etc/promtail
readOnly: true
securityContext:
runAsUser: 0 # Running as root
volumes:
- name: is-logs
emptyDir: {}
- name: config-volume
configMap:
name: promtail-config
```
3. If you have multiple applications, you can create another deployment based on the above example. For instance, below is the second deployment YAML for the second Integration server with Promtail running as a sidecar.
```
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: is-deployment-two
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: is-two
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: is-two
spec:
containers:
- name: is-container-two
image: softwareag/webmethods-microservicesruntime:10.15.0.10-slim
imagePullPolicy: Always
ports:
- containerPort: 5555
- containerPort: 8091
securityContext:
runAsUser: 0 # Running as root
volumeMounts:
- name: is-logs-two
mountPath: /opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs
# Sidecar container for Promtail
- name: promtail-two
image: grafana/promtail:2.9.3
args:
- -config.file=/etc/promtail/promtail-config.yaml

```
4. Create a ConfigMap for `promtail-config.yaml`. In the following configuration map, we collect both `server.log` and `WMERROR.log` from the Integration Servers. If there are multiple deployments of Integration Servers, the `pod: ${POD_NAME}` dynamically retrieves the value of the Integration server as defined in the `deployment.yaml` file above.
```
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: promtail-config
data:
promtail-config.yaml: |
scrape_configs:
- job_name: islog
static_configs:
- targets:
- localhost
labels:
job: serverlog
pod: ${POD_NAME}
__path__ : /opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs/server.log
- targets:
- localhost
labels:
job: errorlog
pod: ${POD_NAME}
__path__ : /opt/softwareag/IntegrationServer/logs/WMERROR*.log
```
5. Create a helm package and install the above deployment. Additionally, verify that all pods are running healthily.
```
helm package .
helm install <install-name> .\is-chart-0.1.0.tgz -n <namespace>
kubectl get all -n <namespace>
```
6. To access the Grafana dashboard, log in and navigate to the “Explore” section. Here, you can execute queries based on the labels set in the Promtail configuration and view all your Integration Server (IS) deployment logs. You can filter logs by using the labels defined in the Promtail configuration. For instance, you can execute queries to filter logs based on “errorlog” or “serverlog” as defined in the above promtail-config.yaml file.


As we conclude, it’s crucial to recognize the significance of effective log management in troubleshooting and resolving issues within the webMethods Integration Server, particularly in complex customer environments. By using tools like Loki to organize and display logs, organizations can understand how their systems are working with webMethods Integration Servers. With a unified logging system in place, teams can promptly identify real-time events and expedite problem resolution, thereby enhancing the reliability and effectiveness of their systems.

From automating content creation to enhancing customer service, these technologies offer innovative solutions once thought impossible. In this blog post, we'll delve into what Generative AI and LLMs are, how they work, and their practical applications.
## What is Generative AI and LLM?
**Generative AI** refers to a type of artificial intelligence that can create new content, such as text, images, or music, based on the data it has been trained on. Unlike traditional AI, which is primarily designed for recognizing patterns and making predictions, Generative AI can produce novel and creative outputs.
**Large Language Models** (LLMs) are a subset of Generative AI specifically focused on text generation. These models are trained on vast amounts of textual data and can understand, generate, and manipulate human language in a coherent and contextually relevant manner.
## How Generative AI Works
### Supervised Learning and Labeling
At the core of Generative AI is supervised learning, a method where the model is trained on labeled data. The AI takes an input, processes it through complex algorithms, and produces an output. Each piece of input data is associated with an output label, and the model learns to map inputs to the correct outputs.
The success of Generative AI largely depends on the scale of the data used for training. The more diverse and comprehensive the dataset, the better the AI can understand nuances and generate accurate results.
### Text Generation Using LLMs
When it comes to text generation, LLMs break down a sentence into smaller units, process each unit, and generate outputs for each one. This iterative process ensures that the final output is coherent and contextually appropriate.
For example, in training an LLM for a reputation monitoring application, the model is fed sample customer reviews labeled as “positive” or “negative.” Through this training, the AI learns to recognize patterns and sentiments in the reviews. It can then take real customer reviews as input and generate a summary of the brand's reputation as output.
ChatGPT is a more advanced example of an LLM that has been trained on a vast corpus of text data to understand and generate human-like responses across a wide range of topics.
## LLMs as a Partner
LLM can serve as a valuable partner, helping users brainstorm ideas, answer questions, and explore new concepts. By interacting with the AI, users can gain new insights and perspectives. However, it's crucial to double-check the responses generated by AI due to the phenomenon known as **hallucination**. Hallucination in AI occurs when the model generates plausible but incorrect or nonsensical information. This makes it essential to verify the accuracy of the AI's outputs.
### Web Search vs. LLMs
When it comes to serious topics like healthcare, it's advisable to rely on traditional web search, which provides access to verified and authoritative sources. On the other hand, LLMs are ideal for more esoteric or creative tasks, where the generation of novel ideas is more important than factual accuracy.
## What LLMs are Good For
### Writing Assistance
LLMs can assist in various writing tasks, such as suggesting names for products, answering questions, drafting emails, and creating content. Its ability to generate diverse ideas makes it a valuable tool for writers and marketers.
### Reading Assistance
LLMs can also help with reading tasks, such as analyzing client emails to identify complaints, summarizing documents, and extracting key information from texts. This can save time and improve efficiency in handling communications.
### Chatting and Customer Service
As a chatbot, LLMs can enhance customer service by providing instant responses, guiding users through processes, and maintaining dynamic FAQs. This leads to improved customer satisfaction and streamlined support operations.
## Conclusion
Generative AI and LLMs in particular are revolutionizing the way we interact with technology. By understanding their capabilities and limitations, we can harness their power to improve various aspects of our personal and professional lives. As these technologies continue to evolve, their potential applications will only expand, offering even more innovative solutions to complex challenges.

1,881,009 | Exploring Functional Programming in Java (for JavaScript Developers) | Functional programming (FP) has gained significant traction in recent years for its emphasis on... | 0 | 2024-06-08T03:04:13 | https://dev.to/gervaisamoah/exploring-functional-programming-in-java-for-javascript-developers-372 | java, functional, java8, programming | Functional programming (FP) has gained significant traction in recent years for its emphasis on immutability, pure functions, and higher-order functions. While JavaScript can be qualified as inherently functional, diving into functional programming in Java, an object-oriented programming language, might seem like a daunting task for JavaScript developers. However, Java provides robust support for functional programming through its `java.util.function` package, enabling developers to embrace FP principles seamlessly.
## Understanding Functional Programming
At its core, functional programming is a programming paradigm that treats computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and avoids changing state and mutable data. In Java, developers can leverage functional programming paradigms using the `java.util.function` package. This package introduces *functional interfaces*, *lambda expressions*, and *streams*, which are essential components of functional programming in Java.
## Functional Interfaces and Lambda Expressions
Functional interfaces play a pivotal role in functional programming in Java. These interfaces have exactly one abstract method and can have multiple default or static methods. They act as blueprints for lambda expressions, which are concise representations of anonymous functions.
[IMAGE HERE]
For instance, the `Consumer` interface in Java is akin to *callbacks* in JavaScript, allowing developers to pass behavior as an argument to methods. The `Function` interface on the other hand, with its `andThen` method enables function chaining, where the output of one function becomes the input of another. This approach fosters composability and code readability, akin to method chaining in JavaScript.
In addition to `Consumer` and `Function`, here are other core functional interfaces provided by the `java.util.function` package:
[IMAGE HERE]
## Creating Custom Functional Interfaces
Developers can create custom functional interfaces in Java using the `@FunctionalInterface` annotation. This annotation ensures that the interface has only one abstract method, providing clarity to other developers about its functional nature. It also enables compiler checks to prevent any accidental addition of extra abstract methods.
## Exploring Streams in Java
Java streams are a powerful feature for processing collections of objects in a functional style. Unlike JavaScript streams, Java streams are not lazy by default. Instead, they can be either *intermediate* or *terminal*. Intermediate operations return a new stream, allowing further operations to be chained, while terminal operations produce a result or side effect.
### Key Stream Operations:
- `anyMatch`: Returns true if any element of the stream matches the given predicate (Intermediate).
- `allMatch`: Returns true if all elements of the stream match the given predicate (Intermediate).
- `filter`: Filters elements based on a predicate (Intermediate).
- `forEach`: Acts as each element of the stream (Terminal).
- `map`: Transforms each element of the stream using a function (Intermediate).
- `reduce`: Combines elements of the stream into a single result. Here, the initial value comes first (Terminal).
- `sorted`: Sorts the elements of the stream (Intermediate).
- `collect`: Performs a mutable reduction operation on the elements of the stream (Terminal).
## Handling Exceptions in Java
In Java, exceptions play a crucial role in error handling. Exceptions are categorized into two types: *checked* and *unchecked*. Checked exceptions are those that must be handled explicitly by the developer, either by catching them or declaring them in the method signature. Unchecked exceptions, on the other hand, do not require explicit handling. Understanding and effectively managing exceptions is essential for writing robust and reliable Java applications.
## Conclusion
While Java is primarily an object-oriented language, its support for functional programming makes it a versatile choice for developers. By leveraging features such as functional interfaces, lambda expressions, and streams, you can embrace functional programming paradigms and write less verbose code.

# Navigating the Container Orchestration Ocean with AWS ECS
### Introduction to AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS)
In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, containerization has emerged as a game-changer for software development and deployment. Containers provide a lightweight and portable environment for applications, abstracting away infrastructure dependencies and enabling seamless scalability. AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS) takes center stage as a fully managed container orchestration service that simplifies the deployment, management, and scaling of containerized applications on AWS.
At its core, ECS provides a robust platform for running containers at scale. It eliminates the need for you to install and manage your own container orchestration software, allowing you to focus on building and deploying your applications. ECS offers a rich set of features that streamline the container lifecycle, making it an ideal choice for businesses of all sizes.
### Core Components of AWS ECS
To understand the power of ECS, let's break down its key components:
1. **Clusters**: A logical grouping of Amazon EC2 instances that form the foundation of your ECS infrastructure. These clusters act as the platform on which your containers are launched and managed.
2. **Task Definitions**: Think of task definitions as blueprints for your containers. They define the container image to use, the required resources (CPU, memory), networking configuration, and other relevant settings. Essentially, it tells ECS how to run your application.
3. **Tasks**: A task represents a running instance of your containerized application. When you launch a task in ECS, it uses the specified task definition to create and run the container on a cluster instance.
4. **Services**: For long-running applications that require high availability, ECS services are your go-to solution. By defining a desired number of tasks, ECS ensures that your application remains up and running, even if underlying instances fail.
5. **Container Networking**: ECS integrates seamlessly with Amazon VPC, allowing you to launch your containers within your own private network. This provides a secure and isolated environment for your applications.
### Use Cases for AWS ECS
The versatility of ECS makes it a suitable solution for a wide spectrum of use cases, including but not limited to:
**1. Microservices Architecture:**
- ECS excels in deploying and managing microservices-based applications.
- Each microservice can be packaged and deployed as a separate container, enabling independent scaling and fault tolerance.
- ECS's service discovery capabilities further simplify communication between these services.
**Example:** Imagine an e-commerce platform with microservices for user authentication, product catalog, shopping cart, and payment processing. Each service runs independently in separate containers orchestrated by ECS. If the product catalog service experiences a surge in traffic, ECS can automatically scale up that specific service without affecting the others, ensuring optimal performance.
**2. Batch Processing:**
- ECS is well-suited for batch processing workloads that involve running tasks to completion without user interaction.
- You can define tasks for data processing, image manipulation, or any other batch job, and ECS will manage the execution efficiently.
**Example:** A financial institution can utilize ECS to run nightly batch jobs for processing transactions, generating reports, or updating customer balances. ECS ensures that these jobs are executed reliably and efficiently within the defined schedule.
**3. Machine Learning Inference:**
- Deploying machine learning models for inference is a common use case for ECS.
- Package your trained models as containerized APIs and deploy them using ECS.
- ECS handles scaling based on demand, ensuring low latency for real-time predictions.
**Example:** A healthcare company might deploy a machine learning model for medical image analysis. The model runs within an ECS container, processing images uploaded by healthcare professionals and providing real-time diagnostic insights.
**4. CI/CD Pipelines:**
- Integrate ECS seamlessly into your CI/CD pipelines to automate the deployment process.
- Build and push container images to a repository like Amazon ECR (Elastic Container Registry), and configure ECS to automatically deploy the latest version of your application whenever a new image is available.
**Example:** A software development team can leverage ECS to automate the deployment of their web application. When code changes are pushed to a Git repository, a CI/CD pipeline triggers a new build, pushes the container image to ECR, and updates the ECS service, ensuring that the latest code is deployed with minimal downtime.
**5. Web Applications and APIs:**
- Host highly available and scalable web applications and APIs using ECS.
- Use load balancers (e.g., AWS Elastic Load Balancer) to distribute traffic across multiple instances of your application, ensuring high availability and responsiveness.
**Example:** A social media platform can utilize ECS to host its backend API. ECS manages the deployment and scaling of the API across multiple instances, handling a large volume of user requests and content updates. Load balancing ensures that traffic is distributed evenly, providing a smooth user experience.
### Exploring Alternatives: Comparing Container Orchestration Tools
While ECS reigns supreme in the AWS ecosystem, it's essential to acknowledge other prominent container orchestration tools available in the market:
1. **Kubernetes (K8s):** Widely recognized as the industry-standard container orchestrator, Kubernetes is an open-source platform known for its extensibility and robust feature set.
**Key Features:**
- **Self-Healing:** Automatically restarts, replaces, or reschedules containers that fail.
- **Automated Rollouts and Rollbacks:** Enables gradual deployments with canary and blue/green strategies.
- **Horizontal Scaling:** Adjusts the number of running containers based on CPU utilization, memory, or custom metrics.
2. **Docker Swarm:** Integrated directly into the Docker engine, Docker Swarm offers a simpler approach to container orchestration, making it a suitable option for smaller deployments.
**Key Features:**
- **Easy Setup and Configuration:** Simple commands and intuitive concepts for getting started quickly.
- **Decentralized Design:** Each node in a Swarm cluster can participate in orchestration decisions.
- **Service Discovery:** Built-in DNS-based service discovery simplifies communication between containers.
### Conclusion
AWS ECS has established itself as a cornerstone of modern application deployment and management within the AWS cloud. Its ability to seamlessly orchestrate containers, scale applications on demand, and integrate with other AWS services makes it an indispensable tool for developers and businesses striving for agility and efficiency in their cloud operations. As the containerization landscape continues to evolve, ECS stands poised to empower organizations with the tools they need to navigate the complexities of cloud-native applications.
### Advanced Use Case: Building a Real-time Data Processing Pipeline with ECS, Kinesis, and Lambda
**Scenario:** Imagine a real-time analytics platform that processes a high volume of streaming data from various sources, such as social media feeds, sensor data, or financial transactions. The platform needs to ingest, transform, and analyze this data with low latency to provide actionable insights.
**Solution Architecture:**
1. **Data Ingestion:** Utilize Amazon Kinesis Data Streams to capture and durably store the high-velocity data streams.
2. **Real-time Processing:**
- Employ ECS to run a cluster of containers running Apache Kafka consumers. These consumers read data from Kinesis streams in real-time.
- Within the containers, use Apache Spark Streaming or Apache Flink for data transformation and analysis. These frameworks are specifically designed for processing streaming data.
3. **Serverless Transformation:** Integrate AWS Lambda functions to perform lightweight data transformations or enrichments on the processed data.
4. **Storage and Analytics:** Persist the processed data to a data store like Amazon S3 or Amazon Redshift for further analysis and reporting.
**Benefits of this Architecture:**
- **Scalability:** ECS allows you to scale the processing capacity up or down dynamically based on the volume of incoming data, ensuring optimal performance.
- **Fault Tolerance:** ECS's self-healing capabilities ensure that if a container fails, it's automatically replaced, maintaining the integrity of your data pipeline.
- **Real-time Insights:** By leveraging stream processing frameworks within ECS, you can gain valuable insights from your data in real-time.
- **Cost-Effectiveness:** Utilize serverless components like Lambda to reduce costs and optimize resource utilization.
This advanced use case highlights the power and flexibility of ECS when combined with other AWS services to create sophisticated and scalable cloud-native applications.
