Back in 2007, the world met the iPhone for the very first time. After Apple's product debut, it took less than six months for work to begin on PhoneGap, which would become one of the first and most adopted frameworks for hybrid mobile app development — that is, for apps written simultaneously for multiple platforms using HTML, CSS and JavaScript, rather than coded in native languages. When compared with the prospect of learning an entirely new language and development environment in order to program iOS (and soon Android) apps, the appeal of this type of development to the already huge population of web developers in the world was palpable. The post App Development Showdown: Why You Should Care About Revisiting The Native Vs. Hybrid Debate In 2017 appeared first on Smashing Magazine.

There are plenty of articles on the optimization of text content for the best possible keyword ranking. However, the importance of image content is often underestimated or not mentioned at all. The best article wouldn’t be anything without pictures. At least, it would be incomplete. Additionally, visual elements help us understand the content of articles much better, and this is the point at which every webmaster should realize that image content is extremely valuable for search engines as well. On top of that, there’s not only the Google web search but also the Google image search, which also has a lot of potential to permanently increase your website’s visibility. Advantages of Google Image Search In the following, to clarify the value of Google image search, we want to show you four arguments for optimal images: Increases the website’s visibility Secures market shares against competitors Adds value for customers and search engines Boosts Conversions 1.

On the Laravel News site they've posted the latest tutorial in their series covering the creation of a translation package. In this latest article they cover the creation of the database driver to replace the previous file-driven content handling. In the previous article of the series, we talked about how to handle missing translations, which brings us very close to making the package feature complete. To finish up the build phase of this series, we will discuss how we go about adding a database driver. Thanks to defining the interface for the data handling previously, redefining the handler for the database is simpler. He includes the code for: the migrations to create the languages and translations tables the models for both tables and their relations to each other creation of the database driver using the interface His code includes methods for getting either single or multiple translations including fetching them by language. He then updates the "resolve" method to allow defining the driver to use in the configuration rather than being hard-coded.
