Tagged template literals - How the gql`query` syntax works

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 21:58:26 +0000

When exploring some graphql I stumbled over it’s quite special syntax for defining a query gql`query` . Now this seemed like a nice shorthand way of expressing an inline query, but I just couldn’t understand which construct made this possible. Typescript? Ecmascript 2016? Or maybe some other feature?

Highlights from the Aurelia vNext 2019 fall update

Sat, 02 Nov 2019 20:37:42 +0000

There was a recent blog post with the status of Aurelia vNext. For those of you that don’t know, Aurelia is a front-end framework with a focus on standards, extensibility, ease of use and performance. It’s been a while since a new major release, so vNext is a pretty big deal.

Does Aurelia Support React Hooks?

Tue, 01 Oct 2019 20:58:11 +0000

There was recently a post on the Aurelia Discourse that caught my attention asking how react-like hooks would work when using Aureliajs. The response from Aurelia’s creator underlined some of the reasons why I trust Aurelia to build JavaScript applications with Aurelia.

Javasript Fatigue

Sun, 24 Jan 2016 23:00:39 +0000

We’ve been joking a long time about the rate new technologies arise and how we as software developers need to keep abreast of the new so we don’t get completely outdated and irrelevant. With web development though, we’ve set a new standard.

Sugarcoting your frontend, one ViewModel at a time..

Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:09:40 +0000

Yesterday, Einar Ingebrigtsen and I had a co-talk at NNUG Vestfold, titled: ”Sugarcoating your front-end, one ViewModel at a time”. We had a great turn-up and a good Q&A thereafter. I think we got a few people to star thinking slightly differently in regards to how to treat web-pages more like web-apps. We pushed hard on the MVVM pattern and how that conceptually fits the way web, and web-apps work. KnockoutJS certainly is a framework I’m starting to really love, and I’m sure there are other out there ready for it.

NNUG Vestfold Meetup 29. Feburary Announcing NNUG Vestfold’s first meetup of 2012. I’m pleased to get started with the first NNUG Vestfold session this year. Last year didn’t really turn out the way I expected, with a total of 1 meeting! In an ongoing effort to push my comfort zone, I’ve decided to hold a session for this meeting. After talking to a colleague of mine, my small talk suddenly became a 2-man-show!

Bifrost - A little background

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 01:22:55 +0000

In this past year at work, we’ve been in the process of developing a new platform from the bottom up with new functionality. One of the goals was to move away from an old unmaintainable solution to a new maintainable solution based on expected coding standards, and of course to meet the business’ needs about scalability and rapid feature development. With an overloaded domain, responsibilities were mingling with each other and business rules and validation was all over the place.

2012, how about this year?

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 23:00:20 +0000

2011 has been hectic, to say the least. Full of enriching life-experiences (personal and professional). I had a few goals for the past year: my health, family, profession. Some things worked out quite well, other things…not so well (so what’s new?). A friend of mine is going on about his big hairy goal. It’s intimidating and inspiring. Here are some things I’m hoping to dive into this coming year: JavaScript Norwegian .

JScript Editor Extensions for Visual Studio

Fri, 26 Nov 2010 23:54:22 +0000

Microsoft have done a really good job by giving developers a great environment to do their work in; namely the Visual Studio suite with all its variants. This IDE’s intellisense is one of its strongest points, but anyone that’s tried to write javascript code has probably felt a bit lost. Intellisense, brace-highlighting, current variable highlighting, code comments…all gone….until now! Microsoft Corp has just released JScript Editor Extensions, a Visual Studio extension that enables all of the above, along with code outlines.
