This is a fantastic video on Continuous Integration. I features speakers from Sauce Labs and CloudBees speaking about what CI should be for you and how to get stated with Sauce Labs and Jenkins.

Continuous Integration- it might be the last thing I'm lacking that is preventing me from developing in a truly agile, world class programmer level. Nobody loves automated testing more than me, and  so I was naturally by this concept of having the unit and e2e tests run each time the code is pushed to the git repo.

I love automated testing, and I really love Protractor testing. Although Protractor is an e2e testing tool created by Google and popularized on AngularJS projects, I've heard that it was possible to use it with non-Angular sites. When I tried I had a bit of trouble, but in this post I'll show you how I managed to get it working.

I'm a huge fan of keyboard shortcuts, and I use them especially often in Google Chrome. If you didn't know, control + tab (on mac) switches to the next tab, shift + command + tab goes to the previous tab, and cmd + w closes the current tab. In you accidentally close a tab you can always hit cmd + shift + t to bring it back. Cmd + q, however, is an evil command that the chrome developers put in to mess with unsuspecting victims (no, not really). It closes every tab of every chrome window that you have open. There is also no undo function. While some of us might need that at times with the amount of windows we have open, it can be just about devastating to accidentally hit cmd + q and watch all of your tab close in horror (overestimating just a little bit). This post is about preventing this situation for happening. 

This is a post about my initial feelings after working on my own little project with ES6, React, and web pack. I’ve really only worked with Angular 1 & 2, some Knockout, and of course some regular old JQuery. I was a little nervous and very excited trying for the first time to actually build something with React (I've been watching these pluralsight courses to get me"thinking in React": )
I’ve browsed a few tutorials and watched [parts of] these pluralsight courses) in the past but never seriously started coding in React until I switched my WebStorm IDE to understand JSX. This post is basically a post-mortem of my weekend project experiment with React and the React-webpack generator.
