So not that long ago, if you wanted an app to take a photo, it had to be a native app — such as a Windows/Mac app or a native mobile application. But HTML5 has brought a number of new APIs that allow not only taking photos, but analyzing and manipulating them all within a browser.
On Mac OS X, Internet Connection Sharing by default hands out IPs on the 192.168.2.x subnet. Normally that’s OK, but sometimes you might want to change it. Here’s how.
iOS makes it very simple to define a custom file type that your app can handle. This post will walk through creating a simple app to access the contents of a text file received via email.
Chariot’s Ken Rimple and VMware’s David Turanski are working on a talk that focuses on modern Single-Page Web Applications, hosted on a Spring platform.
I’ve recently started learning Clojure after a little encouragement from co-worker of mine. I’ve been developing in Java for a while now and spent the last 1 1/2 years with Groovy. The Groovy experience was great and the use of closures certainly “whet my appetite” for functional programming. Ok, for me, when I learn something new I need to have tools that are not distracting so that I’m focused on the material. In this case, I wanted to take a…
This article by Ken Rimple is from a post on Serverside.com A Spring Summary: The Spring Framework is Still Relevant With the advent of the simpler versions of Java EE comes a chorus of Java EE aficionados calling for developers to jettison proprietary application frameworks and embrace the core. Spring is one framework targeted for elimination, and several articles and tutorials have claimed that it’s obsolete. To kick off a regular monthly column on TSS, I’ll tackle the question of why the Spring…
Many Android applications use REST or another HTTP based protocol to communicate with a server. Working with HTTP and HTTPS on Android is generally fairly straightforward and well documented. Depending on the version of the Android OS, either HTTPClient or HttpURLConnection “just work”. Either one can be used, but the official recommendation is to use HttpURLConnection for Gingerbread or later, and HTTPClient for Froyo and earlier. Things get interesting, however, once you go past “plain vanilla” HTTPS. On a recent…
From cloud computing to Javascript, from micro services to repeatable environments, from Android and HTML5 to Big Data and concurrent programming, Chariot’s engineers are keeping watch.
If you didn’t attend last month’s “Science of Big Data” event in downtown Philadelphia, not to worry. We’re beginning to post screencasts of the sessions now: The Science of Big Data – Screencast Sessions.
From cloud computing to Javascript, from micro services to repeatable environments, from Android and HTML 5 to Big Data and concurrent programming, Chariot’s engineers are keeping watch. Here you’ll find a list of technologies to pay attention to in 2013.
