Get a React Component by DOM Node
15.5.2018
Retrieving a React component’s DOM node is fairly simple from within the component itself, but what if you want to work backward: retrieve a component’s instance by DOM node? This is a task that the old Dojo Toolkit’s Dijit framework allowed with the dojo.byId method, so it made...

Reset File Changes with git
25.4.2018
There are many different philosophies when it comes to code review but mine is fairly simple: I like receiving early “work in progress” patches, I like to be positive in my code review messages, and if a patch is 90% there, I like to finish the patch myself so the project...

One of the many new input types that HTML5 introduced is the date input type which, in theory, should allow a developer to provide the user with a simple, usable, recognisable method of entering a date on a web page.
