Why Web Developers interested in React Js?

The amount of JavaScript tools is steadily increasing, turning the selection of appropriate technology into a challenge. But why developers are most interested in React js among those libraries.

Nowadays all the web applications are in SPAs. It means the DOM trees are huge nowadays, in turn we need to modify the DOM tree incessantly and a lot. This is a real performance and development pain.

Consider a DOM made of thousands of divs. We have lots of methods that handle events - clicks, submits.

What can do by the library like jQuery?
jQuery will find every node interested on an event and update it if necessary

It has two problems: It’s hard to manage and it’s inefficient.

The solution to problem 1 is declarativeness. Instead of low-level techniques like traversing the DOM tree manually, you simple declare how a component should look like. But this doesn’t solve the performance issue. This is exactly where the Virtual DOM comes into action.

First of all - the Virtual DOM was not invented by React, but React uses it and provides it for free.

Virtual DOM makes React js as Web Developers choice for SPAs.

So, What's Virtual DOM? I'll explain in the next post.

Happy Programming!

Large Volume of Dataset Transfer from WCF to Silverlight

Most of the times the developers, architects have the problem to retrieve large volume of data from WCF Service to Silverlight client applications. It’s a big head ache for developers. But it’s not up to that much problematic one. We can solve this problem by changing some property’s values in Web.config of WCF Service host, Silverlight application’s ServiceReference.clientconfig and Silverlight XAP hosted ASP.Net Applications. Here I’m going to explain the Web.config changes we need to retrieve large volume of data from WCF Service and also uploading large size of files to the Server. Last week, I was trying to figure out why my WCF service call always threw the generic NotFound exception when trying to retrieve large datasets. Even though, I set buffer limits to 2147483647 (int.MaxValue) in the Silverlight ServiceReferences.ClientConfig file and WCF Service configuration Section under web.config the problem was persisting. I tried so many things from Data Access Layer and UI. Finall...

Node.js for Everything

Lots of web applications using Javascript for front end for a long time. Javascript enabling people to build really really interactive great products, we can use Javascript on the front end and on the back end. So, what do we do on the back end? Node.js is the answer. Here we'll see some of the npm packages that'll help us to enable Javascript in back end as well. Load balancing is the main one when you plan to host your application server environment. Node offers pm2 package to easy your job. It's modern CLI process manager for Node apps with a builtin load-balancer. npm install pm2@latest -g pm2 start app.js Next thing is running applications continuously. Yeah, we've a node package named forever. It's a simple CLI tool for ensuring that a given node script runs continuously. npm install forever -g forever start app.js Enabling debugging in Javascript client applications are easy. Debugging a node application is sometimes a black box sometimes not, but one of the ...
