03/07/2014

Have you ever wanted to know how to get from color A to color B, programmatically? I have found myself on several occasions using a button, or some other styled html element and wanting to change the colors.

Finally, Pain-free Form Validation for Bootstrap

Thank the Lord! I finally found a form validation library for bootstrap that doesn’t make me want to wash my mouth out with a revolver to us. My requirements were simple. I wanted something that could easily validate a form for some criteria before allowing a user to submit, and if they eff’ed up, use Bootstrappy icons and colors to tell them where.

For work, I’ve been getting to do a lot of awesome mapping stuff. This is all because I have gotten us completely off Google Maps and onto the MapBox platform.
