HTML5 is the newest revision, and by far the most interesting, of the Hyper Text Markup Language. is In this article I have compiled awesome HTML5 code snippets to take your website to the next level.

The Git Basics tutorial provides a succinct overview of the most important Git commands. First, the Setting Up a Repository section explains all of the tools you need to start a new version-controlled project. Then, the remaining sections introduce your everyday Git commands.

By the end of this module, you should be able to create a Git repository, record snapshots of your project for safekeeping, and view your project's history.

I love reading git logs! First, because it reveals the people and processes behind software. Software is not just a bunch of code that works (or more commonly, doesn't work...) - it's also a bunch of people crafting something together for a long time. Not only adding features and fixing bugs, but they also refactor, do dirty tasks and ugly workarounds, explaining their motives in the commit messages.

A second, more concrete reason - quick access to git history helps me make better software. It helps me find out when and how exactly a bug was introduced, learn whom to talk to about a certain change or code, or simply find a desired code snippet in a huge repository - even if it was already deleted. Am I stating the obvious here? I guess so! but I do believe that sometimes this tool is underestimated and underused.

Of course, the better we know git's secrets, the more effective use of git history we could make. I'll try to share here some useful tricks I've collected in the recent years... I bet you know some; I believe you may still find some of them useful.

So what is awk, and what does it have to do with UNIX? Plenty, as you'll soon learn. It is a tool that helps you get certain tasks done in the UNIX shell. But it's no mere tool; it's so developed that it's a programming language in its own right. Keep reading to learn how to make the most of awk.
The core idea in the creation of any programming/scripting language is to make it as natural and as simple as possible. Still, it should allow the construction of advanced expressions for solving complex problems. The creators of the UNIX Shell script language did not forgot these two simple principles. For the sake of simplicity some parts are broken down into multiple sub-parts. Sometimes these sub-parts evolve and grow to form their own programming language.

A prime example for this is Awk. The name "awk" comes from the starting letters of the names of the three creators: Aho - Weinberg - Kernighan. These people defined it as "awk, a pattern scanning and processing language." Besides setting a concrete purpose for the tool, this also underlines the fact that awk has its own syntax and rules. With this, it becomes a programming language on its own.

Awk was designed to scan and process files like the .cvs, where data are organized into columns and rows. However, doing the same with any other source of organized data in this structure is a valid option (as in the case of the command ls -l). The principle behind awk is to divide an input stream into rows and records and make the changes on this.

Last time I presented the stream editor, which accomplished the row splitting. However, compared to the sed, awk is a much more complex, powerful and more capable language. The record extraction allows us to throw away the unnecessary and process only the useful information from a file/UNIX tool.

Awk is a scripting language, and is best for solving small everyday problems. Its three creators do not recommend it for use in big, complex problem solving. However, there are long lists of problems that can be solved with it. It also has a couple of other advantages when compared to other tools, like the sed. For instance, it can work with real numbers and follow a very C-like syntax.

In this and a future article I will try to present it as concisely as I can without leaving out any crucial parts of awk. Remember that this article is only designed to introduce to you this language on a basic level. I do not intend to show you every corner of the scripting language. Nevertheless, this will be enough for you to use it in the everyday problems you may come across in the future.

Making a change sometimes takes a great effort coupled with a great sacrifice. At other times, though, it simply calls for a little adjustment of what we already have. The stream editor does just this. Since inside the UNIX shell, the universal language spoken is the text stream, with the help of this tool you can make some easy and fast modifications to the shell. If you are interested in what you can change and how you can change it with the stream editor, you will have to read this article.
This article is part of my series related to shell programming in UNIX. Therefore, I will build on the fact that you can already write a script and run it inside a terminal. In addition, you should also know how to handle the control mechanism of the UNIX shell. All of these things are explained in my previous articles, so if by chance you missed them just search them up and embrace their knowledge.

For every paid software, always you can find an opensource alternative, sometimes the alternative is better and complete like (Gimp vs Photoshop) sometimes not. Today we will see a good alternative to Cpanel, the well known paid hosting / server panel, it is zpanel.

ZPanel is a free to download and use Web hosting control panel written to work effortlessly with Microsoft Windows and POSIX (Linux, UNIX and MacOSX) based servers or computers. This solution can turn a home or professional server into a fully fledged, easy to use and manage web hosting server.

Zpanel is easy to install and to configure. In this tutorial i installed Zpanel in CentOS 6.3.

Laravel Philosophy

Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We believe development should be an enjoyable, creative experience to be truly fulfilling. Laravel attempts to take the pain out of development by implementing common tasks used in the majority of web projects, such as authentication, routing, sessions, and caching.

Laravel aims to make the development process a pleasing one for the developer without sacrificing application functionality. Happy developers make the best code.

Learning Laravel

One of the best ways to learn Laravel is to read through the entirety of its documentation. This guide details all aspects of the framework and how to apply them to your application.

In addition to this guide, you may wish to check out some of the Laravel books that are available on the books page. These books serve as a good supplemental resource for learning the framework.

W dziale tym zajmę się programowaniem w C i C++ głównie dla Linuxa (ze względu na wykorzystywane funkcje systemowe tego systemu i testowanie w nim prezentowanych rozwiązań). Nie będzie to jednak typowe omówienie czy kurs tego języka, prócz krótkiego wprowadzenia w podstawy tego języka, zamieszczę tutaj szereg bogato komentowanych, niewielkich programów ilustrujących poszczególne zagadnienia. Omówię również korzystanie z ważniejszych/ciekawszych bibliotek (w tym bibliotek standardowych C i C++). Na wstępie zachęcam do zapoznania się z przykładem zamieszczonym w części "wstępu do techniki" poswięconej porgramowaniu, a także przykładom wprowadzającym w podstawy C i C++.

Today, nearly every modern computing-related company uses directly or indirectly a virtualization software. As seen with the recent Cloud computing trend, it is a sector that recently exploded in popularity and it is now accessible to everyone.
There are now a LOT of alternatives to virtualize an OS :
Isolation : OpenVZ, VServer, LXC, UML, BSD jails, Solaris zones…
Paravirtualization : Xen
Full virtualization : VMWare Player/Workstation/ESX/ESXi, KVM/Qemu, Virtualbox, Bochs…
When having to deal with a large pack of machines for building packages, testing software on multiple OSes or optimally use a powerful server with lots of RAM, you rapidly should, if not have to, realize that Virtual Machines can make your life significantly easier. It was the case for us.

Simple Website Layout Tutorial Using HTML 5 and CSS 3

As most of us know HTML 5 has created a big buzz on internet and is sure to give Adobe a hard time. Apple believes that HTML5 is what will define the web and would love to see more developers adopt it instead of Flash. Now that big video sites such as YouTube are testing support for HTML5 (Mashable).

Depending on who you ask, HTML 5 is either the next important step toward creating a more semantic web or a disaster that’s going to trap the web in yet another set of incomplete tags and markup soup.

The problem with both sides of the argument is that very few sites are using HTML 5 in the wild, so the theoretical solutions to its perceived problems remain largely untested.

That said, it isn’t hard to see both the benefits and potential hang-ups with the next generation of web markup tools.

Having the right code snippet at the right time can definitely be a life saver for web developers. Today, I’ve compiled 10 really awesome PHP code snippets that will, I hope, be very helpful in your forthcomming developments.

Welcome to the MediaLoot HTML5 compendium! The purpose of this page is to be a consistently updated reference for web designers and developers who want to start using the new features of HTML5.

Let’s face it, it’s difficult to keep up with all the new changes to the language, and there’s a lot of pressure for designers to start using HTML5 and CSS3 too — both of which can be overwhelming at first.

The W3C specs for HTML5 and CSS3 are also incredibly long and practically unreadable, not to mention unfinished - so it’s easy to see why a lot of designers choose to hold off on taking the effort to learn the new languages, however it’s really not that hard to start using both languages today, there doesn’t need to be a lot of pressure either because the beauty of adopting early is that you can work your way into it slowly and the only thing you actually need to know if you’re already using XHTML/HTML4 and CSS2 is what’s new and how can it benefit you.
