This post is about how a frontend architecture could look like. The presented architecture is not the only way how to solve the problems in the frontend like loading time, data retrieval, etc. but it can be one possible way.
In the architecture, the “backend” is behind an API-Gateway, which doesn’t really concern us. The task of this API-Gateway is to handle REST-Calls.
The four main parts in the frontend are:
This post is about how we used React in combination with Redux in our project, to create a frontend architecture, in which the code we write is easy to test, maintain and extend.
We divided the files in our project in seven categories:
How the different categories work together can be seen in the following graphic:
Describing refactoring to a non-developer person can be tough. Especially when this person does not understand the implications of the absence of clean code or other code-quality improving techniques.
If you try to explain code-quality improving techniques to non-developer persons, you might hear questions like “why haven’t you done it right the first time?”.
Even explaining why code-quality matters is really difficult, particularly when money is involved. For a person who is only interested in making money with the resulting software, improving code-quality sounds like a waste of time and money, because the software might work, even without improving the code-quality.
If you install windows after you installed Linux, the Linux bootloader will be “overwritten”.
To fix this, you don’t have to reinstall grub or syslinux or any other bootloader you are using. Just boot into windows, figure out on which partition the bootloader is and set the active partition flag on this partition.
to set the active partition, you simply can use diskpart. Run diskpart:
diskpart
then navigate to the disk, containing the Linux partition with the bootloader. For example:
It’s simple:
for i in *; do echo $i; done
If you want to replace a certain text in all files with something new, use this:
for i in *; do sed -i 's/original/new/g' $i; done
where original is the original text and new is the new text. If you run the following script…
for i in *; do sed -i 's/foo/bar/g' $i; done
…in a folder, which contains a file with the content:
Hello foo, my name is bar
the result will be:
