” Hey guys. My name is Addy and I'm a passionate Web Designer. On my site you can find lots of useful tutorials on JavaScript and User Interface design.
I'm a passionate 24 year old Irish Web Designer & Developer and (currently) a Project Manager who loves creating exciting new user interfaces and writing about topics that can help other web designers out there at the moment. Although I've been approached by Facebook, Microsoft and Google over the years, I enjoy working in smaller companies. If you're interested in speaking to me about contract work, please leave me a note on the site and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
If you've come here (or any dev blog) hoping to learn a few tips and tricks, you're already well on your way to becoming a better developer.Expanding your knowledge through reading books, blogs and trial-and-error coding are some great steps to improving your knowledge. If you would like to read more on this topic, see my article called '10 Professional Tips For Designers and Developers' here.
Hey guys. I recorded you a screencast on HTML5 over the weekend – I hope you like it!. It covers a lot of the core features HTML5 will bring including code samples for any material covered. Just click on the HTML5 thumbnail above to be taken to the HTML5 in under 5 minutes micro-site where you can play or download the screencast. I hope it comes in useful! Thanks – Addy.
Hi guys. Today I’m going to show you how to do persistent Client-side storage that’ll work in any Web Browser without needing to use Cookies, Browser-Specific hacks or HTML5 – in other words, we’re going to store as much custom information as a site needs on a user’s system without needing to worry about compatibility issues.
You all tweeted in to vote and today I’m sharing a whole new set of HTML5 Canvas demos that really show you just how far you can push the envelope on the <canvas> element. One of my favourite things to look at at the moment is 3D so you’ll get to play around with excellent interactive examples like the 3D Google Images Gift Box and or my 3D site Perspectives demo but you’ll also see just how useful the canvas can be for modelling real-world objects.
We’ve got a great new post ahead of us.
This post will introduce you to an excellent new resource for advanced JavaScript demonstrations – Google Chrome Experiments. Most of the demonstrations you’ll find in this post should render with no problems in Chrome, Firefox and Safari 3. Before we start, I’m going to make no secrets about it…Google Chrome is my favorite web browser on the market at the moment for a number of reasons. First..it supports a true multi-threaded model so if one of my tabs happens to crash the rest of my browser won’t be affected..I can simply close that one tab and keep on browsing to my heart’s content – and second – it’s got V8..
This requirement to learn new languages and plugins can increase the time it takes to get a project out the door and the need for many different specialities can definitely increase the cost of getting something impressive done. HTML5 changes this – with support for high-quality animation, video and audio embedding as well as many other types of rich content, the future of the web may be arriving soon. Here’s what HTML5 will give you.
