Local Development | LAN [ Local Area Network ]

Before an application, website, backend server, frontend app or any application required to integrate with another platform, how you work with your friends?
  • Put all in one computer for testing? 
  • Upload to a free hosting for testing like Heroku ?
If your team able to work in same place, i would suggest hosted own local network for testing at least faster then using other free platform like Heroku.
As of improvement of technology, nowadays network interface card ( NIC ) would have a feature about HostedNetwork. You can host your local area network ( LAN ) for your friends and they can access your works and testing at their own computer and fix would faster the development.


In Windows

You can use command prompt and type "netsh wlan show drivers" and check is "Hosted network supported : ". If supported you can create your local area network by using command "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=YourAP key=YourPW".
  • YourAP  = Access point name
  • YourPW = Password you want to share

In Linux

You can use "create_ap" package for sharing hosted network.

Here my bash for sharing:
 

When you connected

  •  You can access the main hoster via the default gateway in windows and the last number would be 1, hoster would be first to connect the access point. Example of IP Address look like "192.168.12.1".

With the LAN, You can

  1. Play games with friends
  2. Access web server
  3. Access backend server

Here come with an example using my phone to access backend application:

Flutter codebase sharing

# Clone For master branch come with example, you can clone and run `flutter doctor && flutter run` ``` git clone --single-branch --branch master https://github.com/Oskang09/Flutter-CB2019.git ``` For codebase branch just empty codebase, but setup done you can just start your development. ``` git clone --single-branch --branch codebase https://github.com/Oskang09/Flutter-CB2019.git ``` # Plugins * Dart as "Programming Language" * Flutter as "SDK" * Redux as "State Management" * Fluro as "Navigator Router" # pubspec.yaml ```yaml name: flutter_codebase description: A new Flutter project. version: 1.0.0+1 environment: sdk: ">=2.0.0-dev.68.0 (); Router router = Router(); routers.forEach( (route) { router.define( route.routePath, handler: Handler( handlerFunc: (context, params) => route.widget(params) ), transitionType: route.transitionType ...

Async / Await vs Promises

## Node.JS In node.js, asynchronous operation able to done by two ways. They are async/await codeblock or promises. What different between them? ### Promises In promises, some of them call it `callback hell` because of the syntax keep repeating callback like and until the end of the async operation. Here come with an example. ```js samplePromise: () => { var promise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => { try { // async codeblock resolve(result); } catch (e) { reject(e); } }); promise.then( (result) => { // result is returning and async operation run complete. }, (rejected) => { // rejected something wrong when running async operation } ).catch( (error) => { // unhandled error occurs when running async opeartion } ); } ``` With this example, you able see that promise code block is quite long when running an async operation, try to think what if more complex async operation required to run, like you need to get data fr...
