.NET Docs
This repository contains .NET Documentation
This repository contains the conceptual documentation for .NET. The .NET documentation site is built from multiple repositories. Issues and tasks for all but the API reference repository are tracked here. We have a large community using these resources. We make our best effort to respond to issues in a timely fashion. .NET is a free, open-source development platform for building many types of applications. Share functionality between different applications and application types using class libraries. With .NET, your project code and files look the same, regardless of the type of application you build. With each application you have access to the same language, API, and runtime capabilities. .NET allows you to use platform-specific functionality, such as operating system APIs. Some examples are Windows Forms and WPF on Windows and the native bindings to each mobile platform from Xamarin. -

Awesome Cordova Plugins
Native features for mobile apps built with Cordova/PhoneGap
Awesome Cordova Plugins is a curated set of wrappers for Cordova plugins that make adding any native functionality you need to your Ionic mobile app easy. Awesome Cordova Plugins wraps plugin callbacks in a Promise or Observable, providing a common interface for all plugins and making it easy to use plugins with Angular change detection. In addition to Cordova, Awesome Cordova Plugins also works with Capacitor, Ionic's official native runtime. You also need to install the Awesome Cordova Plugins package for each plugin you want to add. To use a plugin, import and add the plugin provider to your @NgModule, and then inject it where you wish to use it. Make sure to import the injectable class from the /ngx directory. React apps must use Capacitor to build native mobile apps. However, Awesome Cordova Plugins (and therefore, Cordova plugins) can still be used. -

Bootstrap 3 for Sass
Sass port of Bootstrap 2 and 3
Bootstrap 3 for Sass is a Sass-powered version of Bootstrap 3, ready to drop right into your Sass powered applications. This is Bootstrap 3. For Bootstrap 4 use the Bootstrap rubygem if you use Ruby, and the main repo otherwise. Get the lowdown on the key pieces of Bootstrap's infrastructure, including our approach to better, faster, stronger web development. Bootstrap makes use of certain HTML elements and CSS properties that require the use of the HTML5 doctype. Include it at the beginning of all your projects. With Bootstrap 2, we added optional mobile friendly styles for key aspects of the framework. With Bootstrap 3, we've rewritten the project to be mobile friendly from the start. Instead of adding on optional mobile styles, they're baked right into the core. In fact, Bootstrap is mobile first. Mobile first styles can be found throughout the entire library instead of in separate files. -

Buck
Build system that encourages the creation of small, reusable modules
Buck is a build system developed and used by Facebook. It encourages the creation of small, reusable modules consisting of code and resources, and supports a variety of languages on many platforms. Buck builds independent artifacts in parallel to take advantage of multiple cores on your machine. Further, it reduces incremental build times by keeping track of unchanged modules so that the minimal set of modules is rebuilt. Buck only uses the declared inputs, which means everybody gets the same results. Buck looks at the contents of your inputs, not their timestamps to figure out what needs to be built. As a result, incremental builds should always be correct, so there's no need to perform a clean build. With buck query, you can better understand your dependencies and what is required to build your product. With buck project, your project can be better understood by your IDE, making you and your team more productive. -

IGListKit
A data-driven UICollectionView framework for building fast lists
IGListKit uses an algorithm adapted from a paper titled A technique for isolating differences between files by Paul Heckel. This algorithm uses a technique known as the longest common subsequence to find a minimal diff between collections in linear time O(n). It finds all inserts, deletes, updates, and moves between arrays of data. A working range is a range of section controllers who aren’t yet visible, but are near the screen. Section controllers are notified of their entrance and exit to this range. This concept lets your section controllers prepare content before they come on screen (e.g. download images). With the IGListDiffable plugin for remodel by facebook, you can automatically generate models conforming to the IGListDiffable. Remember that IGListKit functions on one model per section controller. You want to create a Post model that contains all of the information that the cells require. -
