It’s time to release your latest front-end changes to production. However, as you create a new tag, you notice a large number of commits unrelated to the feature you’ve been working on. Now, instead of simply kicking off your deployment and watching the pipeline run, you need to check with numerous developers and managers to ensure you don’t deploy any …
CesiumJS 3D Geospatial Rendering
This blog is a brief overview of CesiumJS, a cool JavaScript client library for visualizing a geospatial Earth map, including artifacts (both real and generated). They eat their own dog food, so their homepage has a declaratively-rendered spinning globe by Cesium.
CesiumJS has a higher-level Entity API as well as a lower-level Primitive API. The API doc can be found here. I’ll point out a couple of interactive source examples that use the entity API; most Cesium apps use it. Cesium also provides open specification 3D Tiles to load, render, and cache on-demand terrain features, artifacts, and building renditions for surface viewing.
There is no IDE or download needed to interact with the material mentioned in this overview. You can interact with the material mentioned with your browser.
Code Tutorial: Integrating Avaya Agent For Desktop With React And SignalR
Keyhole Software gives readers an in-depth code walkthrough and tutorial for how to integrate Avaya Agent for Desktop using React and SignalR.
This integration allows the web-based application to asynchronously receive information about an inbound call, which enriches agents’ experiences and protects against context switching and double documenting. As for technology, AAfD (Avaya Agent for Desktop) is used as the softphone, React as the library to compose the SPA (Single Page Application), and SignalR as the bi-directional message hub.
The hypothetical scenario in this tutorial can be extended to many other use cases where there needs to be coordination between disparate systems, with an end user’s web browser being informed of the traffic without needing to do any long polling or other methodologies.
Asynchronous data flow is useful to many different business verticles, and SignalR is a powerful tool that will likely become a larger part of the custom Application Development enterprise ecosystem in years to come.
[Video] Deep Dive Into Vue.js
A 45-minute discussion diving into the Vue.js framework, including its technical philosophies, how it differs from the React library, and how it should be applied to new applications at an enterprise scale.
Redux with TypeScript: Focus on InitialState
For this blog, I’m going to continue using the example project I’ve used for the last several blogs, Whirlpool. You can find my last post on the Keyhole Dev Blog – Updating Microservices with Netty, Kafka, and React: Whirlpool revisited. Feel free to go back and read about microservices, Netty, Kafka, and React, or just start here with me and continue on the journey. Either way, I’m glad you’re here.
The focus of this blog will be creating Redux’s InitialState using TypeScript. It tends to be tricky to get it to stop complaining about types, so this should be helpful. Personally, I’ve encountered this issue several times across multiple projects, so I think it is worth talking about.
