AngularJS

I wrote a rough demo with Google’s AngularJS using YouTube data feeds. It’s a work in progress as I’m learning Angular.

jQuery.SpinJS

I created a jQuery plugin wrapping Felix Gnass’ excellent spin.js. The plugin adds a background div with configurable color and transparency, and supports AMD. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Client Side JavaScript MV* With Ember.js

My team at work is evaluating the suitability of several tools for client-side application development. We’re looking at building out some non-trivial applications on the client and wanted to make the best collective, educated decision on the best tool(s) for the job.

The tools we’ve been looking at include:

• Backbone


• Knockout


• Angular


• Ember

Backbone

I’ve already grown pretty familiar with Backbone, having spearheaded its adoption into our tools set a year or so ago. We’ve built out a few non-trivial applications with Backbone and admire it’s simplicity and elegance. Backbone is lean and non-prescriptive, it’s a minimalistic library that gives you the most basic structure and tools for event-based model management.
