Today I want to blog about my Angular(2 - 6) experiences the past years.
After 3 years of desktop development I’ve started with Angular 2+ in july 2016, when it was still in beta.
Back then the landscape was a lot more difficult than it is today.
Tutorial on how to use LocalDb as a lightweight Sql Server substitution for development purposes.
After copying file paths from git status
output and pasting them after a git add
quite a few times
by now, I’ve written a small PowerShell script
to manipulate the working directory and staging area with fabricated indexes.
A git diff
or git log
starts the less program. Perhaps not the
fanciest tool but more powerful than you might expect.
This post details the arguments that can be passed to less
and also how to navigate once less is running. Things not relevant
for git are omitted.
Your current configuration:
git config --get core.pager
If this returns nothing, there is room for improvement there!
TL&DR:
Configure something sensible:
# Short version
git config --global core.pager "less -eFiJM~ -j3 --tabs=3"
# Not so short version
git config --global core.pager "less --LONG-PROMPT --tabs=3 --quit-at-eof --quit-if-one-screen --tilde --jump-target=3 --ignore-case --status-column"
Everyone happy when the downfall Xml was a fact with the widespread use of Json. Less tags, more data. What’s there not to like. It’s also just so much easier for a human to read.
If it wasn’t so straightforward to parse JSON in the omnipresent JavaScript, Yaml might have had a good chance to take over the world being the most readable data serialization language.
The creators of NSubstitute craved a mocking framework with comparable capabilities to the alternatives but with a shorter, more succinct syntax. They have not failed to do so and I loved the NSubstitute syntax right away.
First we’ll cover the basic Autohotkey hotkey syntax. Which is arguably already pretty confusing for
newcomers in and by itself.
But we don’t stop there as after adding more and more hotkeys, it will also become harder and harder
to think of new key combinations that are somehow still memorable. There is only so much
you can do with the #
(Windows) key etc.
Time for some creative hotkey combinations! ‘Advanced Hotkeys’ covers code snippets on
how to run different scripts on single, double or triple key presses as well as how to
differentiate between long(ish) key presses or mouse clicks. And more…
