Optimize Your Workflow: JavaScript Tools and Libraries

The “good old days” are behind us. We no longer have the luxury of having so little JavaScript code that we can do it all by hand in Notepad. In fact, the amount of JavaScript being sent to the client per page has increased quite dramatically from not so long ago. We can’t afford to write everything by hand anymore, which is where all of these tools and libraries come in handy.

New Project Page: JZ Parse URL

It’s taken too long, but it’s finally completed. The project page for JZ Parse URL is up with full documentation. You can also find it listed on the projects page. Along with this new project comes a few minor changes to the way the project pages are done: files will no longer be directly downloadable from the site, but instead everything is done on GitHub. Also, I’ve decided to make the documentation in the JavaScript files more minimal and instead just link to the project pages. This update will happen soon and will not bring a new version number.

New Project Released: JZ Parse URL jQuery Plugin

In the advent of the recent URL Parsing tutorials (DOM URL Parsing and Query String Parsing) I’ve decided that we put the knowledge we’ve gained – plus some compatibility fixes – into practice and create a lightweight jQuery plugin that quickly and simply handles all of your URL Parsing needs. Now, rather than using regular expressions (that so few understand) or using the techniques I’ve taught to you yourself, I’ve made it simple to use a single utility function attached to jQuery.

JZ Publish/Subscribe jQuery Plugin Version 1.3 Released

It’s been a little while since I’ve taken a look at JZ Publish/Subscribe, but recently I had a great idea to fix a problem I was having trouble solving. Mix that in with a few more bits of context capability and you have the version 1.3 release of JZ Publish/Subscribe. Go ahead and read a little more to get the scoop on this great idea and how it will make using JZ Publish/Subscribe more stable.

New Projects Section

All of you JavaScript lovers out there who have been following this blog recently will probably know already that I recently released a jQuery plugin to add Publish/Subscribe functionality. The Announcement was posted just a few days ago. Well, I decided I can’t just leave the information about the plugin in a post that will fade into the ages of the archive, so I created a Projects page, which you can access via the link on the main navigation bar.

New jQuery Plugin: Publish/Subscribe

I recently started looking through Dojo because another blog writer seemed to highly recommend it while saying there’s no real need to use jQuery. Dojo seemed quite powerful, probably having DOM manipulation on par with jQuery, but only if you required the correct extra modules. Also the syntax for Dojo is far more verbose. Still it seemed like Dojo had something that jQuery didn’t, so I sought to find what jQuery was lacking. It turns out that the only thing that Dojo (excluding Dijit and it’s other separate libraries) had that jQuery didn’t was a publish/subscribe module.
