Hamaluik – Creating a Code Profiler in Haxe Using Macros
Great read if you’re into Haxe macros:
Haxe macros are said by many to be “black magic”, and in some ways they are—macros in Haxe are actual Haxe code (rather than macros in C/C++ for example, which are just fancy pre-processor directives). Macros are undoubtedly the most advanced feature of Haxe and probably the hardest to grasp, however I think a major reason for that is a lack of really solid documentation on the subject. To me, the Haxe docs regarding macros are somewhat obfuscated and leave something to be desired, and unfortunately there’s not a lot of other resources online. This is what led me to embark on my own journey of learning Haxe macros, and hopefully starting to shed a little more light on their mystery.
Karen McGrane – Content organization
Must watch and read presentation by Karen McGrane:

I saw this talk in 2014 and didn’t stop thinking about it. And now we started working on a project based on this idea:
The future of content management systems is their ability to capture the content in a clean, presentation-independent way. Dan Jacobson (Source)

Jeff Ward – Haxe Notes For ECMA Coders: Object Literal Notation
Must read article by Jeff Ward:
ECMAScript programmers (JavaScript, ActionScript, etc) are familiar with writing object literals in JSON notion. This appears to work in Haxe, but you’ll quickly run into pitfalls and type issues. A bit of background about the Haxe type system will help you avoid a lot of frustration.
Responsive Images using and srcset/sizes
Big heavy images are responsible for most of the bloat on a responsive website, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Here’s the latest HTML elements you can use to keep your images small, and your site lean & fast.

Vex – Take control of your dialogs
http://github.hubspot.com/vex/
Vex is a modern dialog library which is highly configurable, easily stylable, and gets out of the way. You’ll love vex because it’s tiny (6kb minified), has a clear and simple API, works on mobile devices, and can be customized to match your style in seconds.
Why massive open online courses matter
How long can a file name be on windows?
How long can a file name be on windows?
It depends on the length of the complete path to the file (such as C:\Program Files\filename.txt). Windows limits a single path to 260 characters. This is why you might occasionally get an error when copying a file with a very long file name to a location that has a longer path than the file’s original location.
