Top Web Developer Tools of 2011

Top Web Developer Tools of 2011 | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

While browser-based operating systems haven't taken over the world, 2011 has been a pretty good year for Web developers. It's an exciting time to be working in Web development, and there's never been a better crop of tools to work with. Web standards are eclipsing proprietary toolkits, and the development community is creating its own set of open source tools to work with. Here's a look at some of the best we've seen in 2011.

d3.js: Data-Driven Documents

d3.js: Data-Driven Documents | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

D3 allows you to bind arbitrary data to a Document Object Model (DOM), and then apply data-driven transformations to the document. As a trivial example, you can use D3 to generate a basic HTML table from an array of numbers. Or, use the same data to create an interactive SVG bar chart with smooth transitions and interaction.


D3 is not a traditional visualization framework. Rather than provide a monolithic system with all the features anyone may ever need, D3 solves only the crux of the problem: efficient manipulation of documents based on data. This gives D3 extraordinary flexibility, exposing the full capabilities of underlying technologies such as CSS3, HTML5 and SVG.

Best PHP frameworks – MVC and more

Best PHP frameworks – MVC and more | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

PHP is a dream for those who want to learn how to make a website or an application and don’t know much about programming languages… and since PHP is free and has a phenomenal documentation … plus on top of that there are so many frameworks to help you out making it easier to work with and also making it more stable and structured.

 

Since I kind of like working in PHP a lot … but mostly core PHP … now a days I tried my hands on a couple of MVC structure frameworks for PHP… and found that there are a whole lot of them to work with…so just thought I would make a list of them and maybe someday try out as much as I can to finally find the one that suits my expectations and working criteria.

Top 10 Mobile Web Development JavaScript Frameworks

Top 10 Mobile Web Development JavaScript Frameworks | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

Creating web apps and sites for the Mobile Web has its own sets of challenges and techniques. From UIs optimized for fingers instead of mouse cursors to the bandwidth limitations that most portable personal devices have, developing for mobile devices requires a paradigm shift for those of us who’ve traditionally created products aimed at desktops.

 

To help you rapidly deploy cross-platform mobile apps and websites, there’s a wide range of JavaScript frameworks you can take advantage of, like :

1. jQuery Mobile

2. Titanium Mobile

3. The-M-Project

4. Jo

5. xui.js

6. EmbedJS

7. zepto.js

8. DHTMLX Touch

9. Mobilize.js

10. ChocolateChip Mobile

Short List of RESTful API Frameworks for PHP

Short List of RESTful API Frameworks for PHP | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

Having a web API is an essential part of doing business online today. We wanted to help get you started. So we took some time to pull together a list of the RESTful or RESTish (however you choose to view it) API frameworks, that can help you deploy your API faster.Today we are going to take a look at seven RESTful API frameworks for PHP:

- Dave

- Epiphany

- FRAPI

- Recess

- Slim

- Tonic

- Zend Framework

David's comment, June 1, 2013 8:46 AM
The list is a bit out of date and some frameworks have hit a dead-end. For those evaluating frameworks herewith a quick list:

http://davss.com/tech/php-rest-api-frameworks/

It's best to evaluate by going to each API developers website and try to match your project needs to available features. Some frameworks have built-in others extend via modules.

A Real-Time Component Framework (RTCF) for FMS 3.5

A Real-Time Component Framework (RTCF) for FMS 3.5 | Dev Breakthroughs | Scoop.it

The Real Time Component Framework (RTCF) is designed to provide a light-weight mechanism to help developers build modular Flash Media Server (FMS) applications.

 

RTCF makes it easy for a client-side component to access a component on the server via a proxy object. The proxy represents a component on the server and provides access to the server-side component's remote methods, streams, and shared objects.

 

RTMFP and Peer-to-Peer are supported (peer-to-peer communications requires the Enterprise edition of Flash Media Server or the use of a cloud service from companies like Influxis).

batman.js - a microframework with node.js integration and push persistence

The heart of batman.js is a tiny microframework that makes building web apps easier and more beautiful. It embodies a set of principles that makes trivial the parts of development that should be trivial.

If you are starting a new app, batman.js is also an optional full stack framework that embodies the same principles. It sports a utility belt that includes a toolchain, a powerful node.js server, and a push based persistence layer.

It's also worth defining a microframework as it applies here: batman.js only includes code to do what it needs to do in order to run. It won't give you utilities to work with objects like Prototype.js or manipulate the DOM like jQuery. But batman.js is a good JavaScript citizen; it won't pollute the global namespace and you can use it with any other library.

For example, if you're doing a lot of DOM manipulation, you can, and probably should, still include something like jQuery. If you want to use a full UI library like jQuery UI, UKI, or even (with a bit of hackery) Cappuccino, batman.js will happily work with those as well.
