In javascript, assigning a non-primitive value (Such as Object, Array, Function, and many more), keeps a reference (an address in the memory) to the assigned value. Assigning a primitive value (String, Number, Boolean, or Symbol) to two different variables, and changing one, won't change both: var...

Be careful, this approach might be considered as a bad design for angular apps, since it requires programmers to remember both where functions are placed in the scope tree, and to be aware of scope inheritance. In many cases it would be preferred to inject a service (Angular practice - using scope ...

_.map is useful for changing a list into a different list in a purely declarative way. Rather than using imperative techniques like a while or for loop in javascript, you can just specify how you want to manipulate an element of a list and Use _.map to make a new list transformed by the functio...

Filtering a list down to only the elements we want to do. Lodash provides a function called _.filter filters elements based on the predicate function you provide. A predicate is a function that takes data in and returns either true or false. Let's look at how we'd get just the even numbers from...

Reducing a list to a single value is easy when you have _.reduce. Let's say we wanted to see if a group of people could afford a cab ride. We'd want to look at all the money they have together as a group, which means we'd want to reduce a list of objects to a single value, in this case the sum ...

A minimal Dockerfile looks like this: FROM alpine CMD ["echo", "Hello StackOverflow!"] This will instruct Docker to build an image based on Alpine (FROM), a minimal distribution for containers, and to run a specific command (CMD) when executing the resulting image. Build an...

To declare exposed ports from a Dockerfile use the EXPOSE instruction: EXPOSE 8080 8082 Exposed ports setting can be overridden from the Docker commandline but it is a good practice to explicitly set them in the Dockerfile as it helps understand what an application does.
