WebDev Playground: dabblet.com for HTML/CSS, jsfiddler.com for JS & HUrl.it for REST
What was reserved for mighty Desktop Apps in the past is now coming closer to the web. I’ve going to present three tools to you which are very useful for web developer. At least all the tools are quite cool in there functionality.
Playground for HTML/CSS
If you need a quick Playground for CSS and HTML than you should take a look on Dabblet.com:
The basics are easy to explain: You are able to hitch CSS and HTML Code into the Web surface and you will see the result directly on the Preview.
It’s also possible to save it or share it via Link with somebody else: More Information’s on this Blog or you try it by yourself.
Playground for Javascript (and HTML and CSS)
If you are looking for a Javascript Playground and other additional Frameworks “per Click” a jsfiddler.com a good address:
It’s possible to see some Examples on the Sidebar like for example a simple Twitter Reader.
Here you can deposit CSS/HTML but in fact it doesn’t look so classy like dabblet.com.
Hurl.it – curl online
Last service in this row: hurl.it modeled on curl.
The first examples are directly on the home page like a request to the GitHubAPI. But the service is quite insecure (it wasn’t available the last view days) and there are some problems with answers (the Stackoverflow API doesn’t worked with this Tool).
But at least it is also useful if you want to have a quick play around with a REST Service.
Javascript to Dart Translator
Dart, a Google Javascript alternative was presented a few months ago and the web developer scene are a little bit unsure about the usability of Dart. To declare the language Google has translated the Javascript basics into Dart. The result is this “Translator”. In my opinion the name doesn’t find that well because it’s …
Twitter Bootstrap as UI-kit
HTML and CSS are not foreign words for me but I regret, I’m not a Web designer – I see myself as a webdeveloper. But at least a dressy side is a must. But thank good there are some ready “Systems”. Twitter Bootstrap Twitter Bootstrap is a Toolkit for every kind of Web applications. …
Fix: the value ‚x‘ is not valid for Foo in ASP.NET MVC
To get files into the MVC Controller Modelbinding from MVC is a clever method. But in fact it is a little bit complicated to set the error message if the connection failed. Example: public class RegisterModel { … [Required] [DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)] [Display(Name = "Email address")] public string Email { get; set; } [Required] [Display(Name = …
You Tube API – recall Video Meta files with .NET
A loooong time ago I’ve blogged about how to access to You Tube with the Google Data APIs. After all that time there are several new ways how to recall files. Google offers You Tube a “simple” surface. If you prefer to do low-Level HTTP calls it is also possible. Aim: I want the …

Windows Azure SDK for node.js & co – on GitHub!
Like if assumed a while ago Microsoft does everything to place Windows Azure as “the” Cloud-Platform for several Languages & Frameworks. In the past Microsoft was famous for pushing their own Platforms and Languages into the market seems like changing their strategy and is now pushing for example node.js and publishes SDKs on GitHub. …
oEmbed – 3rd Party Content (Video/Pictures/…) embedded on your own side
To embed content from other sides like YouTube, Flickr, Slideshare seems to be very difficult at the first sight especially if you want to make it “automatically” from the URL. How the embedding works depends on the content – on YouTube and so on you need a video player for Slideshare and so …
Fix: „There is a duplicate ‚uri‘ section defined“ on DotNetOpenAuth
A little hint about what to do if you receive this error. Following setup for me: – Asp.NET MVC project including .NET Framework 4.0 – DotNetOpenAuth via NuGet installed – The Webprojects also used “Cassini” During the deployment to an ordinary IIS I received this error message: “There is a duplicate ‘uri’ section defined” …
Avoid „Duplicate Content“ with IIS7 – Domain with or without www
If you are the owner of a domain like “foobar.de” you need to make a decision: with or without www? With or without www? It’s not so easy to find an answer to this question. I prefer the www option because it’s possible to set a C-Name for a “www” Subdomain. The C-Name is important …
