Some key points from his presentation include: - The characteristics of a good HTML5 app including being focused on a single task, working offline, and being integrated with the operating system. - The promises and challenges of HTML5 including inconsistent browser support for new web APIs. - Features of Firefox OS including its use of Gecko as a rendering engine, support for third party HTML5 apps and web APIs, and its GAIA platform. - Examples of new web APIs in Firefox OS for capabilities like battery status, geolocation, notifications and others. - The importance of tools and platforms that make developing

This document discusses location-aware apps and hacking location data. It begins with some example photos showing current location and what's around. It then discusses oldest maps, current maps, and questions like where, here, around. It covers getting the current location through asking the user, sniffing the IP, and inferring location. It details the W3C geolocation API, IP sniffing, geocoding, reverse geocoding, and the Yahoo! GeoPlanet API. Finally it discusses some interesting hacks and apps that utilize augmented reality and location data.

Human factors, also known as ergonomics, is the study of designing equipment and devices that fit the human body and its cognitive abilities. The field considers human limitations and preferences in order to measure and build technologies that enhance safety and usability. It draws from psychology, engineering, biomechanics and anthropometry to understand how humans perceive and physically interact with their environment.

Human factors, also known as ergonomics, is the study of designing equipment and devices that fit the human body and its cognitive abilities. The goal is to enhance user safety, comfort, and effectiveness by considering human physical and mental capabilities during the design process. Designers measure people and consider how users will interact with and perceive potential products to devise prototypes that can be built, explored, and improved through user testing.

One of the main advantages of web applications is their ease of deployment. The same can't be said about desktop applications. However, desktop applications work without a network connection. While this used to be a deal breaker for web applications, recent developments in HTML 5 and browser plugins such as Flash and Silverlight allow developers to create web applications that work both online and offline. In this session, Matt will demonstrate how to create offline web applications in HTML 5, Silverlight and Air. Also, other factors for offline applications, such as client-side data storage, will be examined in detail.

This document provides an overview of tools that can be used for presentations including OpenOffice, PowerPoint, Prezi, and tips for improving presentations such as keeping them concise with one minute per slide and one idea per page. It also questions whether slides are always needed and suggests that it depends on the context.

The document is a presentation about embracing failure in front-end development. It discusses measuring errors and performance metrics over time, using tools like Phantomas to monitor changes, configuring alerts when issues occur, and injecting "chaos" to test resilience. The presentation recommends getting experience with failure before Fridays to avoid being woken by alerts at 3am.

Slides from my Device Agnostic Design talk at UCD London http://2014.ucduk.org/session/device-agnostic-design-how-to-get-your-content-to-go-anywhere/ ABSTRACT: There was a time when we did glossy page designs and when those designs were pretty much what we saw in our desktop browsers. With the introduction and rise of smartphones, tablets, phablets there isn’t one view of our designs anymore. Instead, what we create needs to be able to adapt in a way that is suitable for the device as well as where and how it’s being used. With responsive design we’ve learnt the basics of how to adapt content, interactions and layouts so that it works across devices. But with further developments in technology and screens, our content is going to go anywhere. As a result we need to move away from designing for specific devices to solutions that are device agnostic. For us as UX designers this means means letting content rather than devices guide layouts, and also increasingly moving away from designing and wireframing pages to focusing on the modules that those views are made up of. But there are other aspects to consider in device agnostic design. In this talk I walk through why device agnostic design matters, what it means and how we go about it.

The document discusses device agnostic design, which aims to create content that can be accessed and displayed well on any device. It emphasizes building with reusable modular components rather than bespoke designs for each device. The key aspects are understanding content stacking strategies across screens, using content-based rather than device-based breakpoints, and designing interactive elements that work for both touch and non-touch interfaces. The goal is to provide users with a continuous experience regardless of the device they use.

Presented at Velocity Conference NYC in October 2013 Most responsive designs are slow and bloated. The biggest issues are

Slides from my talk at NCC Group's Web Performance Day in May 2016. Compares the features of apps and the web, what's great about each and explores some of the technologies that will allow us to build websites that can deliver native like experiences.

The document discusses developing for mobile web. It covers several topics including physical properties of mobile devices, their network usage and power constraints. It also discusses different versions of Gmail optimized for different devices. The document recommends inlining content, deferring non-essential work, and being creative with JavaScript libraries and debugging to improve performance for mobile. It highlights the ability of web technologies to build cross-device applications quickly without native restrictions. The conclusion is that native languages may be better if writing many device plugins, but web technologies can be effective otherwise.

Using HTML5 provides a great open web platform with new semantic elements like <header>, <nav>, <article>, and <aside> that improve accessibility. It introduces many new form input types, web storage APIs like localStorage and IndexedDB, offline capabilities, and technologies like geolocation, video, canvas, and WebGL that enable creative applications. HTML5 aims to standardize these new features for a better user experience across browsers.

What strategies can you take to bring a web application to a mobile device? Six steps from pure HTML/CSS all the way to almost native applications.

This document discusses the state of Mozilla and browsers in 2011. It highlights several emerging HTML5 technologies like HTML5 video, Canvas, WebGL, CSS3, and local storage. It also promotes Mozilla's mission to keep the web open and accessible across all operating systems. Resources and links are provided for developers to learn more about HTML5 and help that is available from Mozilla.

Progressive enhancement is still an important approach for building responsive websites and web applications. While JavaScript can now be assumed to be widely available, progressive enhancement avoids single points of failure and improves performance by loading critical content first before non-essential enhancements. The distinction between websites and applications is also blurred, so progressive techniques remain applicable to most digital experiences on the web.

The document appears to be providing reference materials and images for a presentation on web analytics.

The document discusses responsive web design and some of the challenges it faces. It recommends adopting a mobile first approach where the mobile styles are defined first before desktop styles, allowing for a progressive enhancement. It also emphasizes the importance of performance and ensuring responsive designs are not just focused on layout but also on optimizing for speed. Key techniques discussed include building mobile first, reordering media queries, keeping basic styles outside queries, and scoping images within media queries to avoid unnecessary downloads.

The document summarizes the evolution of web design from the early 1990s to the present day. It discusses how technical factors like improved code, browsers, devices and access have enabled the rise of responsive design. The key stages discussed are the World Wide Web era from 1992-1996, the dot-com boom from 1997-2001, the era of web standards from 2002-2007, and the modern era from 2008 onward. It emphasizes how current design approaches like responsive design have emerged from the confluence of technical capabilities and shifts in how people access the web from any device.

The document discusses how to use the Yahoo Query Language (YQL) to tap into thousands of APIs and extract data from sources across the web by writing simple SQL-like queries. It provides examples of queries to search Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Craigslist and more, and explains how to select, filter, sort and limit data from these sources using YQL. Key resources mentioned include the YQL documentation, console and Github account for contributing custom data tables.

Slides from my talk at Reasons:London on the 20th of Feb where I talked about 10 things you need to know about mobile. http://reasons.to/

You’re probably a believer in the benefits of continuous delivery and DevOps (why else would you be at this meetup?). The rest of your organization... maybe not so much. Maybe you’re getting pushback on changes you believe will make your organization better. Maybe you’re not sure where or how to start to give yourself the best chance of making a change that will work. I’ll give you some tactics to start your journey toward continuous delivery (or toward any meaningful change, for that matter). I’ll also show how you might apply those tactics to address a specific challenge: adding test automation to a large legacy codebase. The goal is that you walk away with more tools in your “change toolkit” and a little more enthusiasm for shaking things up for the better where you work.

We aim to celebrate women every day, but we’re taking today to give special recognition to womxn at Atlassian continue who inspire and lead.
