How many people are going to see Star Trek this weekend? I'd like to, but there's lots of family stuff going on this weekend here, so maybe next weekend. If you're stuck at home (or don't like Star Trek) here's some links to keep you busy this weekend:
JavaScript
- Grunt JavaScript automation for the lazy developer: An introduction to Grunt.
- Overwhelmed by JavaScript dependencies: A discussion on using Grunt, Bower, and other stuff to make client-side stuff just work.
- Hyperagent.js: For working with HAL APIs in the browser.
- HeliosJS: An in-memory graph database for modern browsers.
- Why I decided to invent the wheel – Browser Databases: Yes, you read that correctly. Uses either WebSQL or IndexDB.
- Apple’s new Objective-C to JavaScript bridge: Definitely something to look into if you work in Objective-C and JS.
Ruby
