Historical note: Codename One’s UWP target was discontinued in release 7.0.229 . This post is preserved for historical context only, and its build/setup instructions no longer apply to current Codename One projects. The next plugin update will add support for native interfaces in UWP. This opens the door for you to really dig into the native features of Windows if you wish to do so. Crucially, this will also allow us to push forward w..

Nearly three years ago we wrote about the “Missing Middle” in the innovation lifecycle[i], a gap that kept successful pilot programs from reaching the goal of replication and optimization in multiple contexts. Since then, scaling humanitarian innovation has received a great deal of attention from the sector, with a number of new initiatives specifically focused on the scaling challenge.

The Codename One CSS plugin is a handy tool to style your app with CSS. This includes setting borders, padding, margin, fonts, colors, and pretty much everything else that you might otherwise do in the resource editor. However, there are some other cool things that this plugin can do for you, such as importing multi-images into your resource file. Let me demonstrate with a small snippet. __ In order to use CSS with your Codename One pro..

One of the most frustrating things that can happen to developers is when you manage to reproduce a rare bug but you are not in the debugger when you did that. My kingdom for a stack trace… But this is also pretty frustrating when you work on a tool like Codename One’s designer or GUIBuilder and they suddenly freeze with no visible error. How do you provide a viable bug report for that?

Mind maps are, from wikipedia, A mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information. A mind map is hierarchical and shows relationships among pieces of the whole. It is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank page, to which associated representations of ideas such as images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch..

So we’ve been working on an App recently to complement our website. One thing I strongly believe in is data driven design or put simple: “Don’t guess gather evidence”. In our current site we’re using App Insights to capture usage, performance and general telemetry from the platform. This gives us a wealth of knowledge which we can query when making business decisions. Let’s jump in, I’m going to be using the new Analytics platform and..

I think I am long overdue for writing a post about how we run infrastructure at Zapier. While I admit our setup might be far from perfect, I feel it works well and has served us as we scale the business out. I am also proud of how much we have been able to do with such a small team! Philosophy Since the beginning, we’ve been big on maintaining a philosophy of “Immutable Infrastructure” and treating our instances as cattle, not pets.

I have been working on real time indexes with Sphinx recently for the next version of searchcode.com and ran into a few things that were either difficult to search for or just not covered anywhere. The first is how to implement a distributed search using real time indexes. It’s actually done the same way you would normally create an index. Say you had a single server with 4 index shards on it and you wanted to run queries against it. You ..

Sometimes a small experiment on the side can grow into something valuable. We at Cerner have long used forward-chaining rules engines to express and execute clinical knowledge, but we’ve also had to extend or work around the capabilities of such engines. Engines targeting business users just weren’t expressive enough to model some of our logic. To meet this need we are making Clara Rules an open source project driven by Cerner Engineering.

I did all the jobs on my list And enjoyed them and had some time over. I lo..

I’ve noticed that on my social media feeds a lot of people are deeply upset that Donald Trump was elected President. Well, technically, he hasn’t been elected yet. The Electoral College will meet on Monday, December 12th, 2016 in their respective state capitals to cast their votes, but it’s highly unlikely anyone will be a faithless elector .

We try to space out plugin updates as much as reasonably possible but unfortunately we need to push out an update this week to fix a critical regression in the new GUI builder. Hopefully it is more stable now and we can go back to working on new features. Steve made a couple of very interesting posts this week and we have a few more from him in the coming weeks.

FontBox is a mature java library for loading, manipulating, and rendering fonts in Java. It gives you direct access to the font glyphs so that you can perform effects or transformations on them. A couple of years ago, I ported FontBox to Codename One, but since CN1 didn’t yet include support for drawing shapes, I made it dependent upon the CN1Pisces library , which did support drawing shapes. This was cool but it had some major limitations..
