Mobile JS Framework Comparison

I did a quick matrix to compare various mobile JS frameworks in late May. It is probably a little outdated, especially with the recent Sencha merger, and I did not know DashCode could create web applications at the time, but maybe it will help someone. Enjoy! //bit.ly/d6Gsaj

Scifihifi-iPhone Keychain Wrapper

Here’s a great wrapper that really simplifies working with KeyChain in iOS //log.scifihifi.com/post/55837387/simple-iphone-keychain-code. The code is on GitHub as well //github.com/ldandersen/scifihifi-iphone/tree/master/security/. Apple’s official documentation is here, and there is also a sample project, but it’s not a good example for getting up and running quickly. The version of the project (last updated 10/2009) doesn’t even […]

Invalid entitlements

I was having big issues deploying to an iPad from XCode tonight. There was an error concerning invalid entitlements. The executable was signed with invalid entitlements. The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file do not match those specified in your provisioning profile. (0xE8008016) I was able to fix this by making sure […]

Philly Give Camp 2010: Part 5

The Builder To keep the teams working as separately as possible with the least interference, we decided that the PAAL Builder, the tool used to build student schedules and lessons, would be completely HTML and Javascript. That means that there would be no server-side code, no ERB or HAML template files, and no Rails special […]

Philly Give Camp 2010: Part 4

Thinking about the problem domain, Trevor, Sebastian, and I decided to abstract away the complexity. The problem (as I understood it then) can be explained thusly: Students need a way to follow a list of scheduled tasks throughout the day, to assist them in performing daily activities. These tasks can be broken into more detailed […]

Philly Give Camp 2010: Part 3

As the MECA staff were describing the application, I didn’t have a clear sense of how beneficial our work would be. To illustrate how our application would help people, they showed us a video of a student going to a gym. In the first clip, the student has trouble following directions and signage about the […]

Dani led us into a different conference room from the main room that most of the other conference attendees stayed in the entire weekend. We met MECA members Gloria, Kaori, and Avi who teach autistic individuals how to function independently. They discussed some of their current work and successes, including the Preparing Adolescents for Adult […]

Last weekend, Lisa and I took off Friday to attend Philly Give Camp. The Camp-type unconference is held to provide technical expertise and work to nonprofit groups. I first heard about the event through coworkers at Wharton, and I decided to sign up. I told some friends about it, and got Kosal and an ex-coworker […]
