Icon design can be hard to get right. Creating a set of unified icons that compliment each other can be very challenging. The best designers are able to even add personality to an icon set to match the tone of the project.

In this post, we wanted to share some of the best sites to download beautiful free icon designs. Some incredible designers have poured a lot of love and care into these icon sets and have made them available for free.

We are in a time where it’s necessary to develop in both mobile and web for your software. However, maintaining three different codebases for iOS, Android, and Web development results in immense time strain when in most cases you are developing the exact same solution. This has lead to the rise in cross-platform development tools that have traditionally used Javascript to develop apps that utilize Web Views to give native-esque experience. However, a relatively new player which came out of beta earlier this year is Google’s Flutter Framework.javascript flutter

De kwaliteit van led-verlichting heeft een vogelvlucht gemaakt, productieprocessen worden verbeterd en steeds hogere eisen worden er aan verlichting gesteld. Des te meer dat het verschil tussen kwaliteit steeds zichtbaarder wordt. Zo ook een onderwerp die steeds vaker aan bod komt, het flikkeren van verlichting, oftewel waarom knippert led-verlichting soms, waarom gebeurt het en wat is er tegen te doen?

Het fenomeen van knipperend licht is niets nieuws voor de verlichtingsindustrie. De specifieke kenmerken van led-verlichting bieden echter enkele unieke uitdagingen. In ons artikel over dimmen kwam hierin naar voren dat led-verlichting van nature knippert omdat stroom nooit constant is, led-verlichting knippert daarom op zo’n frequentie waarbij het niet door het menselijk oog te herkennen valt.

NASA has put their entire collection of images, sounds, and videos of galaxies, planets and space missions online, publicly accessible and copyright free for anyone to view or use.

NASA has over 140,000 images, sounds, and video in their media library, now available for viewing or download, copyright free. You can choose to see images, videos and audio (or all three) when browsing the gallery, narrow a search by year, and sort by newest uploads or most popular.

In addition to the database of amazing space images there are other interesting items like missions, launches, events, astronauts, the International Space Station, SpaceX launches, and a few brief videos narrated by William Shatner that Star Trek fans might like.

Most search results have a useful pop up description so you can see at a glance what the item is all about.

Images have EXIF data - if you like photography or are curious about the details of an image that's a good feature.

While nothing can replace a good bike mechanic, there’s a lot of regular maintenance and bike repair you can do yourself at home. If you’re just getting started, however, it can be daunting to know what you really need.

Bikes are weird because there are a lot of specialized tools for working on them—especially for some of the more niche parts. And since those tools are very specific, they’re also costly. The good news is you don’t have to spend a ton of money to do most of what your bike needs on the regular. Here’s everything you need—from tools to lubes—to make sure your bike always runs like a top.news

Today I'm publishing a new video covering the fundamental features of the Dart language, and showing how to use them in practice.

Using them correctly leads to code that is clear, lightweight, and more robust.

This is a fast-paced and focused video, and I hope you like this new format.dart

So you've installed some great tools or extensions to accelerate your development flow and are having a great time. That's great but there's a slight chance you might be missing out on some of the shortcuts that VS code offers, even if its just one. Not everyone has time to go through every shortcut to find the ones that help them code faster and funner--because there's just too many!

In addition, a lot of the points listed in this article can be custom bound to a keyboard shortcut, so remember that you don't have to be opening up the command palette everytime you want to invoke a command.

In this post I will list my top favorite shortcuts that make me a faster coder. I personally think it makes coding a lot funner when applying these shortcuts. Watching your time get cut in half makes me feel proactive :)unity

If your app might be deployed to users who speak another language then you’ll need to “internationalize” it. That means you’ll need to write the app in a way that makes it possible to “localize” values like text and layouts for each language or “locale” that the app supports. Flutter provides widgets and classes that help with internationalization and the Flutter libraries themselves are internationalized.

The tutorial that follows is largely written in terms of the Flutter MaterialApp class, since most applications are written that way. Applications written in terms of the lower level WidgetsApp class can also be internationalized using the same classes and logic.flutter

At times you will have to make your Flutter app support different language or “locale” or in other words make your app Internationalized. Flutter provides widgets & classes that help with this and the Flutter libraries themselves are internationalized. In the following tutorials we’ll use the APIs and tools provided by the intl package. If you’re new Dart’s intl package, i suggest you have a look at the Dart intl tools.

As you might know Flutter is now taking over vast majority of market, so if you’re a software developer there is 99.9% chance that you will come across this. So here’s an easy step by step tutorial for internationalization of your flutter app, also we’ll see how to manually switch your App’s Locale on specific events. I’ll assume you know how to setup a flutter app so we’ll skip that part. Alrighty then Avengers! Assemble!!flutter dart

My story with Flutter has begun 6 months ago, and today I finally decided to start sharing my tiny fingerprint in the Flutter community.

I will be explaining the different parts of a Login UI flutter code, but first, let me show you how it will look like! let’s go!unity flutter

Now that you have gone through a handful of Widgets that will help you create really amazing Ui’s in Flutter, its time to expand your knowledge to some more important widgets and concepts. In this tutorial you will learn how to create a list in Flutter and how to open up a new page, while passing data to it.flutter

Schaken is een bijzonder leuk spel dat wordt gespeeld door miljoenen mensen over de hele wereld.

Als je nog nooit eerder geschaakt hebt, dan lijken de regels van het schaakspel misschien erg ingewikkeld: er zijn zoveel stukken, en ze bewegen allemaal op een andere manier...

Dat valt echter wel mee: op deze site worden de schaakregels op eenvoudige, en naar ik hoop duidelijke wijze uitgelegd, en als je die hebt bestudeerd, dan kun je in principe al een partij tegen iemand gaan spelen!

Je bent dan echter nog geen goede schaker, want om dat te worden, moet je vooral veel oefenen.

Als je goed wilt leren schaken, kun je het beste lid worden van een club, en héél veel partijen spelen.

Later kun je misschien zelfs boeken gaan bestuderen over bijvoorbeeld de "opening" (het begin van de partij) of het "eindspel" (het einde), want er is ongelofelijk veel geschreven over schaken.

Maar op deze site vind je zoals gezegd de spelregels, en die kun je het best doornemen in de volgorde waarin ze in het menu staan: lees eerst de pagina over de basisregels, daarna de pagina over het schaakbord, daarna de pagina over de schaakstukken, enzovoort.

Uitleg over schaken (gericht op kinderen).

Zen Flowchart is the easiest online tool to create flowcharts and more.

Today we’ll look at one of the tasks that can tremendously reduce the amount of time spent debugging in your app. Once you get accustomed to logs running a certain way in your app you’ll quickly be able to notice why something is not working. You can see the flow of your app and then more if you need to.

We’ll be using the logger package for all of our logging.unity flutter

Google I/O 2019 was about innovation, and for Flutter it was about going beyond mobile apps. The technical preview for Flutter Web was released, and a live demonstration showed how Flutter apps can run on Desktop environments, like Chrome OS, Linux, Mac OS, or Windows. In this article we will go through the process of running a new or an existing Flutter application on a Desktop environment.flutter

PowerShell supports aliases to refer to commands by alternate names. Aliasing allows users with experience in other shells to use common command names that they already know for similar operations in PowerShell.

Aliasing associates a new name with another command. For example, PowerShell has an internal function named Clear-Host that clears the output window. You can type either the cls or clear alias at a command prompt. PowerShell interprets these aliases and runs the Clear-Host function.

This feature helps users to learn PowerShell. First, most cmd.exe and Unix users have a large repertoire of commands that users already know by name. The PowerShell equivalents may not produce identical results. However, the results are close enough that users can do work without knowing the PowerShell command name. "Finger memory" is another major source of frustration when learning a new command shell. If you have used cmd.exe for years, you might reflexively type the cls command to clear the screen. Without the alias for Clear-Host, you receive an error message and won't know what to do to clear the output.microsoft

When it comes to running commands on Windows, PowerShell has become somewhat of an ace in the hole. For years enthusiasts were limited to the confines of the Windows command line but in 2006, PowerShell emerged as a powerful alternative. In this article, we break down what PowerShell is, and provide you a definitive cheat sheet to use as a quick reference to get you started and running your own commands.
