Last nights meetup at Sencha Headquarters in Redwood City with Jacky Nguyen presenting was excellent, and as usual very fun.  Jacky talked about tons of performance stuff related to the holy grail of 60 frames per second rendering and mobile sweetness. Sadly, I learned that my ping-pong skills are in total decay. Having slide a very far way from Dorm 5 champion at college, it feels like I’ve returned to rank beginner.  Very sad. http://www.meetup.com/The-San-Francisco-ExtJS-Meetup-Group/events/114540882/ Most of the usual suspects were there.

Three Part Series (Part 3)   Building a Simple REST Controller with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 and WebAPI Using Sencha ExtJS 4.2 and Sencha Architect 2.2, Build a Simple REST client (to feed WebAPI server) Add CRUD to REST client for calling Microsoft WebAPI server   In the first two posts, we built a Microsoft WebAPI REST service, then we built the client side ExtJS app to process the GET request of the service (populate the grid panel), now let’s do the other 3 parts of CRUD (insert, update and delete).  We will not build out the WebAPI side because that would involve adding some kind of persistent storage to the server (which is another topic I did not want to … Continue Reading

Three Part Series (Part 2)   Building a Simple REST Controller with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 and WebAPI Using Sencha ExtJS 4.2 and Sencha Architect 2.2, Build a Simple REST client (to feed WebAPI server) Add CRUD to REST client for calling Microsoft WebAPI server   Our goal here is to create a very simple ExtJS grid panel that works with the Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 WebAPI project build in the previous post. So, first thing to do is fire up Sencha Architect 2.2 (SA 2.2).  Choose for the project type ExtJS 4.2 and you will get a blank canvas.  Drag a Viewport on to the canvas, then, in the Viewport drag a Grid Panel out.  You should have something … Continue Reading

Using SASS and Compass to Solve 2 CSS files into 1 CSS File

I’m currently building a simple SenchaTouch app that includes a twitter stream.  The example CSS that came with the app was global  in nature.  That is, it set styles on all image tags, h2 tags, etc.  Here is what it looks like:   h2 { font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 3px; } img { border-radius: 5px; float: left; } .tweet { font-size: 70%; margin-left: 60px; color: #333; min-height: 50px; } .x-list-item { border-top: 1px solid white; } .posted { float: right; } What this does is every img tag will get a float left.  Very bad!  So, I’ already using Sass (style with attitude) and compass in my app so all I need to do is wrap the code that actually … Continue Reading
