A great collection of Cheatsheets,

Hopefully this can be a timesaver for you, along with teaching you a new trick or two. The resources have been divided into various categories to make them easier to find. Below are more than 100 cheat sheets and reference cards for the following topics:

Flex SWF Optimization

Posted on | June 14, 2010 | No Comments

I found this list somewhere and was very much inclined with what I feel, so thought worth posting it here

  1. Keep nesting thin: Don’t nest too many VBoxes and Canvases, that will make your app dramatically lag/freeze
  2. Don’t Embed: Only embed things that are very small and need to show up immediately (icons in skins for example)
  3. Deferred Instantiation: Only add what the user needs to see. Everything else will wait until the user goes there.
  4. Explicitly size all item renderers. If DataGrid item renderers aren’t explicitly sized, your app might freeze for an instance when constructing it.
  5. Optimize Assets for the Web (icons ~< 20k, large images ~< 200k as a rule of thumb).
  6. Refactor to remove excessing curly-bracket Binding (width="{something.other.width/4}"). Causes a bunch of events to be dispatched that you likely don’t need. Too many events == too many temporary objects == lag.

Added Facebook Social plugin to AnandVardhan.com

Posted on | April 22, 2010 | No Comments

Hi

After yesterday’s launch of Facebooks Social Graph API and Social ‘like’ plugin, I tried my hand on the button in my blog.

It was so cool intergating it in Wordpress.

That’s because Facebook has now made it extremely easy for anyone to integrate Facebook social elements into their website or blog – just copy-paste a single line of HTML code and your site will instantly become Facebook-ready.

Steps:

1. Open Theme Editor

2. Edit Index.php

3. Add following code

<iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=<?php echo urlencode(get_permalink()); ?>&layout=standard&show-faces=true&width=530&height=60&action=like&colorscheme=light” scrolling=”no” frameborder=”0″ allowTransparency=”true” style=”border:none; overflow:hidden; width:530px; height:60px”></iframe>

And Done. :)

I like it.
