Dojo’s mobile widgets coming along nicely

I’ve been working a lot on Dojo’s new mobile framework (see HERE for my intro post on dojox.mobile.app) and the Image widgets are coming along very nicely.  I just checked in a new Thumbnail viewer, and enhanced the ImageView widget.  Check them both out at http://bit.ly/cU3akI.

Click the “Browse Flickr” selection to see both images integrated with Flickr, as well as a dynamic group search view using the TextInput and List widgets.  Given that these widgets use cool fancy HTML5 effects, you’re best off viewing them in a WebKit browser, so Safari, Chrome, webOS, iPhoneOS (iOS now I guess) will give you the best experience.

The ImageThumbView uses CSS3 transforms to position the thumbnail images, and animates the opacity with CSS3 to fade in/out images.

I am a software engineer and manager from Ireland. I spent 7 years working in Ireland from 2003 – 2010, then ten years in Silicon Valley from 2010 to 2020. In California I spent about 6.5 years at Facebook Engineering, the last three of which I was an engineering manager in the Ads organisation focusing on customer facing products for creating and managing ads. At Stripe I built the Developer Productivity organisation, with teams that were responsible for the use of the Ruby language, testing infrastructure, documentation, developer tooling (e.g. IDE integrations) and more. At Promise, I was Head of Engineering from 2018 – 2020, responsible for building the first few iterations of our products, hiring for all product roles, meeting with clients and investors, and anything else needed to get a tiny startup bootstrapped and successful. Now I’m back in Ireland, working various projects while advising the great people at Stainless (stainless.com). This blog contains my various musings on all things technical/interesting on the interweb and beyond.

    1. No, not harsh. “Laura” has an unfortunate history on this blog going back months. “She” is a spammer. I really wish she would stop posting, but she seems to have nothing better to do with “her” time.
