When building a NativeScript application with Angular , there are certain scenarios where you might want to share functions and variables across the pages of the application. There are other scenarios where you might want to pull similar functions into a class for code cleanliness. Both of these scenarios would find value in using Angular shared providers.

We’ve all been there… you’re using a piece of software or navigating a website and everything is just running really slow. You click a button and nothing happens – or you get the spinning wheel of death – and now you’re frustrated. Even worse, this is the typical experience on that website/application. These are performance issues, and today, we’re going to talk about how these issues can be identified early on with performance testing.

Note: We received feedback that there was some confusion on us calling this functionality “tail of the log caching” because our documentation and prior history has referred to the tail of the log as the portion of the hardened log that has not been backed up. This feature is actually officially called Persisted Log Buffer and is an acceleration of the hardening of the log cache as blogged by Kevin Farlee at [link].

The art and science of microprocessor architecture is a never-ending struggling to balance complexity, verifiability, usability, expressiveness, compactness, ease of encoding/decoding, energy consumption, backwards compatibility, forwards compatibility, and other factors. In recent years the trend has been to increase core-level performance by the use of SIMD vector instructions, and to increase package-level performance by the addition of more and more cores.

I’ve been keeping up with Angular since the beta releases and if you have too you’ll know that navigation has changed about one hundred times between then and the now stable release. Navigation with the Angular Router component is a tricky subject, but understanding it is necessary for pretty much every quality Angular web application. I wrote a now obsolete tutorial on how to navigate between Angular routes back when Angular was in beta.
