In Resuscitating the Apps Script execution transcript – JavaScript Proxy and Reflect to the rescue I showed how we could use the ES6 Proxy global object to intercept calls to Apps Script services so we could […]
Quick demo of data sharing There are many ways to accomplish this of course, but using Caching across multiple Apps Script and Node projects using a selection of back end platforms is pretty fast to set […]
Motivation I’ve always been interested in ways to get multiple projects in Apps Script sharing data more easily and in a more standard way, independently of whatever platform is being used to host the data […]
Github as an Apps Script cache platform Another plugin available for Apps script library with plugins for multiple backend cache platforms so we can use Github as a back end for caching large objects across […]
Upstash as an Apps Script cache platform Upstash is a brand new service offering a serverless redis over https via a GraphQL API. Previously redis was hard to use along with Apps Script since we […]
Apps Script, Redis and GraphQL – together I’m a great fan of both Redis and GraphQL. You’ll find plenty of articles about them around on this site. Although I’ve showed many examples of GraphQL and […]
This is a guest post from Udemy about their React courses, who say: “We’ve been working super hard over the last 6 months to sharpen up our content, and now have over 12 million people […]
I was talking to some cockroachDB developers at an event lately and discovered that many of them were, like me, using ElasticSearch for full text and complex querying in the cases where SQL was not […]
Many things in Vuetify and Vuejs are hard to come to grips with, but for me, none more so that the very odd property v-on and its relationship to v-slot:activator Two things that helped me see […]
React and Material-Ui are a great combination, but it’s not that obvious how to easily keep your Appbar in a fixed position, and adjust content to take account of it – especially if you have […]

The Material-UI package has a nice Snackbar component. This is a little like toast in Apps Script – it’s a good way to show a transient message. But how to manage the appearance and disappearance of the […]
If you’re reading this you probably already know something about Redux, and how it works with React. Just in case you don’t here’s a quick recap of the steps. This can seem quite complex at […]
