Domino and JavaScript Development MasterClass Redux

Nearly six years ago I delivered a session at IBM Think with John Jardin called "Domino and JavaScript Development MasterClass", a session I also delivered at Engage in May 2018. The session was delivered at the request of Andrew Manby, product manager for Domino. It was shortly after the first Domino Jams when JavaScript development against Domino was a key point of focus and it pre-dated any specific developments to expose Domino for JavaScript development. Now seemed a good point to revisit and review, not only in the context of Domino REST API and Volt MX Go, but also with the future of VoltScript in Volt Foundry.

Postman: The Crucial Tool for Any Microservice Developer

My history with REST development is long. In 2018, before I joined HCL, I delivered a session "Domino and JavaScript Development Masterclass" at IBM Think. When I posted about my development tools in 2017, Postman - then just a Chrome plugin - was key amongst them. Then in 2020 I posted an overview of Postman. And just as both John and I used Postman as a crucial tool when building the application we showed at our session at IBM Think, it's the tool that should be used by anyone doing anything with microservices - which is what every scope your create for Domino REST API is.

GitHub Pages Sites on Domino 2: What

Hosting a GitHub Pages - or more properly, Jekyll - site on Domino may not fit everyone's requirements. But it did fit mine. The "how" is relevant for any static website, although there are other options that I'll mention. But this blog post is covering the "what", the technologies involved. There is a lot that will be unfamiliar to many Domino developers, but technologies worth getting familiar with.
