Using JavaScript Packages without TypeScript Declarations in TypeScript
Tags: typescript, javascript, react, reactnative
Published: 2023-12-22 09:55:50

Let's assume you want to install and use a third-party package in your TypeScript project. When you try to import it into a file, you might encounter a `ts(7016)` error.


![ts(7016) error](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/x87utr9tytbwicr1961p.png)


Try installing its type declaration.

```
npm i --save-dev @types/react-native-scroll-indicator
```

Even attempting to install `@types/react-native-scroll-indicator` might result in a failure with a `Not found` error.

**This means that the package does not include its own Typescript definitions.**

But, TypeScript needs to know the types of the functions and variables in the package to ensure type safety.

No need to worry! You can still incorporate this package into your project. Here's how.

There are a few ways you can address this issue.

---


**Method 1: Write your own type definitions**

write a `.d.ts` file for the library in your project's working copy, as below.

```
declare module 'some-library' {
  export const doInterestingThings(): void;
}
```

However, it's worth noting that the definitions could be extensive. 

_Therefore, this approach is not recommended, given its potential for being time-consuming and error-prone._

---

**Method 2: Generate type definitions with `dts-gen` tool**

`dts-gen` is a tool that generates TypeScript definition files (.d.ts) from any JavaScript object.

It's incredibly simple!

You'll need to first install `dts-gen` if you haven't already:

```
npm install -g dts-gen
```
Navigate to your project directory. Now, Install your package if you haven't already installed.

Run the following command to generate the type definitions for the `some-library` package:

```
dts-gen -m some-library
```

This will generate a file named `some-library.d.ts` in your project directory with the type definitions for the `some-library` package.

_In most cases, this method works well, unless there's an error in the JavaScript files._

---


In such a scenario, you can do the following:

write a `.d.ts` file for the library in your project's working copy, as below.

```
declare module 'some-library';
```

Essentially, it informs TypeScript, _"Hey, this thing exists; stop flagging errors, and let me use it as I see fit."_

This means that you won’t get any type checking or autocompletion for those functions or variables.🥲

---

Hence, **Method 2** is typically the recommended approach, as it offers more comprehensive type information and helps minimize the risk of errors.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Good luck!

Trim the fat! Strategies on writing better at work.
Tags: writing, productivity, career, learning
Published: 2023-12-22 09:48:01

I've always relied on writing to explain my technical solutions. I used to think that a text rich with all the details is better. Is it though?

Here are some strategies that brought style to my substance and boosted my writing skills ~

* **Trim the fat**: Cut irrelevant details that distract from the core idea. Every sentence should earn its place and serve the purpose of your message.

* **Jargon detox**: Simplify technical terms. Your teammates are already battling code complexity; save them the mental gymnastics.

* **Structure makes sense**: Organize your writing into clear sections like "Facts," "Assumptions," and "Questions." This lets everyone get on the same page quickly.

* **Reflect and confirm**: Summarize key points and questions. This clarifies your understanding and avoids miscommunication.

* **Deep dive with Docs**: Move discussions to longer-form platforms like Notion. This allows for structured explanations, collaborative edits, and richer context than chat or calls can offer.

These are some techniques I have started paying attention to. What writing tips have you picked up along the way?

Houdini: Setup Fractured Glass The Right Way For Seamless Rendering
Tags: houdini, vfx, animation, sidefx
Published: 2023-12-22 09:39:19

You have a fractured window glass pane, or a glass ball for RBD simulation and rendering, but the inside faces of the fractured pieces show in the render even before the fractured simulation plays. The demo below shows the problem on the left and the fix on the right


![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/msodie3127czd1etump9.gif)

The obvious solution is to resort to "tricks" to hide the pieces but Houdini since 18 introduced nodes to handle that problem; two nodes actually.

Let's go!
- A basic geometry fractured with the glass preset of the "RBD MaterialFracture" node.
= The first important step is to drop an "RBD ConnectedFaces" node
- The next step is to do whatever you wish to do with the fractured object. ie. the sim or animation or whatever it is you want to do.

![network](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ooyja4qolhr6vcinbv9w.png)

- The last step is to drop an "RBD Disconnected Faces" node and choosing **Delete Connected** Mode
![disconnected faces](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ff7mqds16qtfa03a1r21.png)

That is it !! Simple! huh? What happens is that, all the inside faces of the "unsimmed" faces are deleted while the simed faces are not. This creates a hollow geometry of a sort and only fills the areas that get disturbed. In the wireframe below, the first box is a clipped version of the fracture box. It is clear that the box is hollow at that point until any area gets hits and has to fall apart (last image).

I18n in Web Apps Series Part-1
Tags: webdev, javascript, programming
Published: 2023-12-22 09:28:42

As a web developer, you must have developed many great web applications designed for a specific target audience in a specific region or country.

This practice is called Localization.

## What is Localization?
Localization refers to the adaptation of a product, application or document content to meet the language, cultural and other requirements of a specific target market (a locale).

> Localization is sometimes written in English as l10n, where 10 is the number of letters in the English word between l and n.

It includes customization related to:

1. Numeric, date and time formats
2. Use of currency
3. Keyboard usage
4. Collation and sorting
5. Symbols, icons and colors

6. Text and graphics containing references to objects, actions or ideas which, in a given culture, may be subject to misinterpretation or viewed as insensitive.
7. Varying legal requirements
8. and many more things.

## Taking the product/service to the next level
Now, what if the business wants to scale and expand its reach to make their product/service accessible and adaptable to a diverse or global audience?

Ever wondered what practices a web developer needs to follow and implement to enable the expansion of business in multiple regions or countries so their audience can adapt and feel inclusive?

The answer to all above questions is Internationalization!

## What is Internationalization?
Internationalization is the process of designing and developing products or services in a way that enables easy adaptation to different languages, cultures, and regions. It involves considering various aspects such as language translation, date and time formats, currency symbols, and cultural norms.

> Internationalization is often abbreviated as i18n, where 18 is the number of letters between ‘i’ and ‘n’ in the English word.

By implementing internationalization best practices, businesses and organizations can reach a wider audience, increase user satisfaction, and improve their global market presence.

It is an essential aspect of software development, website design, and content creation, particularly for companies with a global customer base or expansion plans.

In addition to language and cultural adaptation, internationalization also involves considering other factors like time zones, measurement units, and regional preferences. It requires careful planning, collaboration with localization teams, and the use of standardized methodologies and tools.

Overall, internationalization plays a crucial role in breaking down language and cultural barriers, enabling effective communication, and providing inclusive experiences for users around the world.

In upcoming articles of this series, we will dive deeper into the actual aspects which will help us implement Internationalization in Web Apps.

Amazon S3 Lifecycle Configuration is a feature that helps you automatically manage your files (objects) stored in Amazon S3 over time.

**2.Why Does Lifecycle Configuration Matter?**
Amazon S3 Lifecycle Configuration acts like a handy helper for your files. It automatically figures out where to store them and when to remove them, taking the hassle off your plate. This not only saves you money by using more affordable storage for older files but also keeps everything organized without any effort on your part.

**3.Parts of S3 Lifecycle Configuration:**

**Upload Files:** Start by putting your files into Amazon S3.

**Set Rules for Storage Classes:** Define rules to let S3 automatically move files between different storage classes based on their age and usage. This includes transitioning from Standard to Infrequent Access (IA), IA to Glacier for archiving, and even to the ultra-low-cost Deep Archive for long-term storage.

**Automated Deletion Rules:** Specify conditions under which files are automatically deleted after a certain period. This is handy for managing data with a limited lifespan.

**Cost Efficiency:** S3 Lifecycle helps you save money by using cost-effective storage classes for your files at different stages of their life. For example, you pay less for storing infrequently accessed files in IA or Glacier.

**Simplicity and Automation:** Instead of manually handling where to store each file or when to delete them, S3 Lifecycle automates these decisions based on the rules you set. This simplifies file management and ensures efficiency.

**4. Smart Storage Moves with Lifecycle Magic:**
Explore the different storage spots like STANDARD, INTELLIGENT_TIERING, and GLACIER in Amazon S3.
See how lifecycle magic helps your stuff move automatically between these spots, saving money and making sure things are super quick when you need them. It's like having a smart organizer for your storage space!.

To sum up, the combination of Amazon S3 and lifecycle configuration offers advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness, organization, and operational efficiency. The smooth transitions between storage classes, such as STANDARD or GLACIER, contribute to a streamlined process. Adopting these tools enhances storage management, ensuring an optimized and efficient cloud experience.
