This pattern is a very proven pattern, but in my opinion not the pattern we want to be doing moving forward, and therefor Bifrost will focus on a different pattern. On top of all this, it has to deal with security. Rendering, as this is often referred to, adds an extra load onto the server – not only is the server responsible for dealing with the request from the user, wether it is getting data or performing an action, but it also has to transform the result into something the client can show. net space, ASP.net and its derivatives are the most popular ones.

Multiple solutions exist out there for doing so, and specifically in the. Traditionally one would compose the resulting web page that is handed over to the client on the server. Today, the RIA space is rapidly changing and for the most part moving away from plugin technologies such as Flash or Silverlight and focusing more on the open standards found in HTML, CSS and JavaScript/EcmaScript.įrom a fronted development perspective, Bifrost is taking on this latter part.

One of the goals for Bifrost is to make it easier for developers to create rich web based applications, promoting good software development practices. Forseti is aiming towards something very different, a headless runner for JavaScript tests based on Env.js not using by default any browsers to execute the tests/specs. The reasoning behind the project is that most test runners out there has so many moving parts in the form of dependencies to get up and running and they’re also very focused on running things in a browser.

Since the site will become very JavaScript intensive, and I pretty much get allergic reactions when I don’t write tests or BDD style specifications for my code, the last project also will get some love Forseti. As a general web platform, I could have gone for anything already out there, but I wanted to push forward features in Bifrost, I therefor decided to build the site from scratch on top of it and also push into the cloud by hosting it on AppHarbor. Balder will hopefully serve the purpose of 3D visualization and bringing forward the a few features that I want to have in that project.

I need to focus more on physical exercise and brought in Geekrider with the synergy of pushing forward development on the open-source projects I’m involved in forward. Geekrider arose concretely from this need of synergy. In my schedule I have a couple of open-source projects that I focus a lot of my energy on Balder, Bifrost and Forseti, so pretty much anything I put in must relate to these in some fashion. Adding things into the schedule is hard and if I add something, it in general must have a synergy with something already in my schedule. I therefor have to be smart with my time and make the most of it. This leaves some 2-4 hours left per day to do all the things I do. For one, I have two kids that needs my attention – and I have a golden rule of engaging with them from the time I get back from work till they’re in bed. I have a lot of things on my plate, during daytime I’m 100% engaged with work at clients, nighttime is the time I have to squeeze in a lot of activities into. As I briefly mentioned earlier I am endeavoring on a project which is going to demand a lot from me physically, but also from a technical perspective.
