Living in a multilingual country, nearly all apps I make are localized.
At least in french and english, but also often german. Having to deal with 3 languages on all my apps wasn’t always easy.
In this article I share some experience and thoughts about localization.
I’m hitting an issue I’m quite sure a thousand developers encountered before me: how to keep an ordered collection in an SQL database.
Keeping an ordered collection seems trivial at first, but can soon become quite complicated.
Lets summarize: what we have is a table A, referencing a table B via a foreign key, and we want to keep the B rows belonging to A sorted.
While working on a React project, I noticed abyssal performances on Safari only.
It took me some time to figure out, but the culprit was the use of absolute positioning.
Disclaimer: I had to implement this solution because of some imperatives (coder life…), but this is not good programming practice. Hopefully Android 5 will let us do it properly.
I have a web application that shares the code on desktop, iOS and Android.
Everything works fine, except that Android does not support <input type="file"> in WebView out of the box. While iOS will happily show an image
picker if the accept attributes is set to image types, Android’s WebView
will just do nothing.
