Last few days I am working on grailstutorials and this is the first time that I am doing some bigger project than experimenting with Grails. While so far I had that feeling now it is even more clear to me while development with Grails is so easy and fast. I will try to share my understanding how high efficiency is achieved when working with grails. Let us see what more or less common web application requires to be implemented: (This list is not full list and I can add number of points into this list)

Are child selectors slower than more simple brethren? This is a question that Jon Sykes sought out data for after he read the work of Jim Barraud. His conclusion?

Arriving with the NetBeans 6.1 release last week was the NetBeans IDE Early Access for PHP. This provides a complete PHP integrated development environment hosted in NetBeans, re-using the infrastructure NetBeans has already employed for Java and Ruby. Having walked through the main NetBeans IDE, I thought it worth looking inside the PHP update to see what it offers one of today's most popular languages.

Most services needed to develop, manage, and deploy a website are free, except for hosting perhaps. Version control, project management, bug tracking — all that a developer or a small team might need is online for $0, thanks to some far-sighted providers.

While we develop AJAX applications, we often carelessly ignore giving up bad practices, which cause effects which are not so significantly visible when the site is not so large in volume. But, it’s often severe performance issue when it is the case for sites that make heavy use of AJAX technologies such as Pageflakes, NetVibes etc.

Many Open Source content management systems written in PHP want to be recongnized by the business industry as being "enterprise" ready. This is not only a mark of prestige and status but places them in a position where large companies are ready to invest in the software as a platform for their projects. Drupal is now trying making its move to be enterprise ready but has a long way to go.

There are two applications on CodePlex that are interesting to compare and contrast. The MVC Storefront and Background Motion. MVC Storefront is Rob Conery's work. You can watch Rob lift up the grass skirt as he builds this application in a series of webcasts (currently up to Part 8). Rob is using the ASP.NET MVC framework and LINQ to SQL. The Storefront is a work in progress and Rob is actively soliciting feedback on what you want to see.

Though I am not a server or network administrator I have always been interested in learning how to secure a network.

Available via to Software Update, Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 1 adds Java SE 6 version 1.6.0_05 to your Mac. This version of Java is only for Mac OS X v10.5.2 and later, and only runs on 64-bit Intel machines. Developers may want to check out the release notes, which detail major new features including an API to work with the Dock icon (getting and setting the image, adding a badge, setting a dock menu, etc.), the ability to provide document-modal dialog sheets, support for Java DTrace probes, AppleScript as a supported language to the javax.script API, and more.

IMHO, this tenet applies perfectly in how UI should be designed. Typically, the most direct way to use a UI control should result in the most awaited feature from a user perspective (make the simple things simple). Then, some extra/hidden UI control facilities can be added to the control to support more in-depth scenario (make hard things possible).

So after the installation of VisualSVN 1.4, I don't think I'll ever look back. Finally a version of Visual Studio source control integration to make me leave the realms of Visual Source Safe forever. Now VisualSVN has put all the most important commands one click away. Not to mention, they added a couple things to make life a little easier for SVN newbies like myself.

Being a C# developer by trade, I naturally spend a lot of my working life programming computers. Whilst I by no-means profess to be a “guru” of any kind, I do notice that there is one aspect of software development that is often neglected from discussion, and most programmers will hopefully agree with me as I explain.

After four days of ASP.NET AJAX training with Stephen Walther I set out to learn more about my options in choosing a solution for a JavaScript/Ajax framework. If I realized days later I would be writing this comprehensive post on 7 of the most popular frameworks, I may have just went with the "Inny-Minny-Miney-Moe" method! I decided to share my research, analysis, links, resources, and personal grade for each of the frameworks compared - jQuery, YUI, Prototype, Dojo, MooTools, Ext JS, and Script.aculo.us.
