Titanium Studio and Titanium Mobile 1.7

Titanium Studio: will this change anything? It is a big step, and offers something I really missed while working with Titanium in the past: integrated debugging. I think I will rather stay with XCode and code native Objective-C. Link: Introducing Titanium Studio and Titanium Mobile 1.7.

Step back and watch what the “normals” do

“We as developer must remember that we are not the target for 99% of the software that is written. We are not the final judge on what will or will not work. If anything, we are the last people that should have an opinion on what is good or bad. We should be the ones [...]

Date from ISO 8601 string

Javascript is full of surprises and browser compatibility is even more exciting. For some reason, I thought all browsers or Javascript engines had support for creating dates from ISO 8601 strings.

Titanium Developer: love and hate
