What is Content Security Policy?

Content Security Policy (CSP) is an added layer of security that helps to detect and mitigate certain types of attacks, including Cross Site Scripting (XSS) and data injection attacks. These attacks are used for everything from data theft to site defacement or distribution of malware.

The Content-Security-Policy meta-tag allows you to reduce the risk of XSS attacks by allowing you to define where resources can be loaded from, preventing browsers from loading data from any other locations. This makes it harder for an attacker to inject malicious code to your site.

Configuring Content Security Policy involves adding the Content-Security-Policy HTTP header to a web page and giving it values to control resources the user agent is allowed to load for that page. 

For example, a page that uploads and displays images could allow images from anywhere, but restrict a form action to a specific endpoint. A properly designed Content Security Policy helps protect a page against a cross site scripting attack. 

Content-Security-Policy: <policy-directive>; <policy-directive>

Fetch Directives 
Fetch directives control locations from which certain resource types may be loaded.

What is Pug?

The general rendering process of Pug is simple. pug.compile() will compile the Pug source code into a JavaScript function that takes a data object (called “ locals ”) as an argument. Call that resultant function with your data, and voilà!, it will return a string of HTML rendered with your data.
Pug is a high performance template engine heavily influenced by Haml and implemented with JavaScript for Node.js and browsers. For bug reports, feature requests and questions, open an issue. For discussion join the chat room.

Node Command

npm install pug

Pug also provides the pug.render() family of functions that combine compiling and rendering into one step. However, the template function will be re-compiled every time render is called, which might impact performance. Alternatively, you can use the cache option with render, which will automatically store the compiled function into an internal cache.

Example:

p #{name}'s Pug source code!

const pug = require('pug');

// Compile the source code
const compiledFunction = pug.compileFile('template.pug');

// Render a set of data
console.log(compiledFunction({
  name: 'Timothy'
}));
// "<p>Timothy's Pug source code!</p>"

// Render another set of data
console.log(compiledFunction({
  name: 'Forbes'
}));
// "<p>Forbes's Pug source code!</p>"

What is Framework 7?

Framework7 is a free and open source mobile HTML framework to develop hybrid mobile apps or web apps with iOS & Android native look and feel. It is also an indispensable prototyping apps tool to show working app prototype as soon as possible in case you need to.

The main approach of the Framework7 is to give you an opportunity to create iOS & Android apps with HTML, CSS and JavaScript easily and clear. Framework7 is full of freedom. It doesn't limit your imagination or offer ways of any solutions somehow. Framework7 gives you freedom!

Framework7 is not compatible with all platforms. It is focused only on iOS and Google Material design to bring the best experience and simplicity.

Framework7 is definitely for you if you decide to build iOS or Android hybrid app (PhoneGap) or web app that looks like and feels as great native iOS and Google Material apps.

Features:

  • Native Scrolling
  • Library Agnostic
  • High-performance Animation
  • Multiple Views (Split View)
  • Clear JS API
  • Pages Animation
  • XHR + Caching + History + Preloading
  • Dom7 - Custom Dom Library

One of Framework7' killing feature is supporting of iOS well known swipe back gesture from left border of screen when you want to get to the previous page. It simply works, and works perfectly as you expect it to do.

What is Qunit?

QUnit is a powerful, easy-to-use, JavaScript unit testing framework. It's used by the jQuery project to test its code and plugins but is capable of testing any generic JavaScript code (and even capable of testing JavaScript code on the server-side).

Node Install

npm install -g qunitjs

Main Methods:

  • module
  • only
  • skip
  • start
  • test
  • todo

Example:

QUnit.module( "group a" );
QUnit.test( "a basic test example", function( assert ) {
  assert.ok( true, "this test is fine" );
});
QUnit.test( "a basic test example 2", function( assert ) {
  assert.ok( true, "this test is fine" );
});

QUnit.module( "group b" );
QUnit.test( "a basic test example 3", function( assert ) {
  assert.ok( true, "this test is fine" );
});
QUnit.test( "a basic test example 4", function( assert ) {
  assert.ok( true, "this test is fine" );
});

All tests inside a module callback function will be grouped into that module. The test names will all be preceded by the module name in the test results. Other modules can be nested inside this callback function, where their tests’ names will be labeled by their names recursively prefixed by their parent modules.

What is Angular App Exception Handling?

The AngularJS $exceptionHandler service allows you to catch and handle unanticipated JavaScript errors in a meaningful way.

Example:
app.factory('$exceptionHandler',function($log,ErrorService) {
    return function(exception,cause) {
        if(console) {
        }
        
    }
    ErrorService.send(exception,cause);
});

Any uncaught exception in angular expressions is delegated to this service. The default implementation simply delegates to $log.error which logs it into the browser console. In unit tests, if angular-mocks.js is loaded, this service is overridden by mock $exceptionHandler which aids in testing.

$exceptionHandler is very useful for sending errors to third party error logging services or helpdesk applications. Errors trapped inside of event callbacks are not propagated to this handler, but can manually be relayed to this handler by calling $exceptionHandler(e) from within a try catch block.

Providers
A provider is the most sophisticated method of all the providers. It allows you to have a complex creation function and configuration options. A provider is actually a configurable factory.

var app = angular.module('myModule',[]);

app.provider("myProvider", function() {
    this.value = "My Value";

    this.setValue = function(newValue) {
        this.value = newValue;
    };

    this.$get = function() {
        return this.value;
    };
});

app.config(function(myProviderProvider) { // ADDED config section
    // Note the extra "Provider" suffix
    myProviderProvider.setValue("New Value");
});

Services

A service is an injectable constructor. If you want you can specify the dependencies that you need in the function. A service is a singleton and will only be created once by AngularJS. 

app.service("myProvider", function() { 
    this.getValue = function() {
        return "My Value";
    };
});

 

Factories
A factory is an injectable function. A factory is a lot like a service in the sense that it is a singleton and dependencies can be specified in the function. The difference between a factory and a service is that a factory injects a plain function so AngularJS will call the function and a service injects a constructor.

app.factory("myProvider", function() { 
    return "My Value";
});


Value
A value is nothing more than a simple injectable value. The value can be a string, number but also a function.

var app = angular.module('myModule',[]);

app.value("Value1", "First Value");
app.value("Value2", "Second  Value");


Constants

A constant can be injected everywhere. The value of a constant can never be changed.


var app = angular.module('myModule',[]);


app.constant("Constant1", "First Constant Value");
app.constant("Constant2", "Second Constant Value");
