With a solid proof of concept under my belt (and onGitHub) I pushed forward with two goals in mind this time: Pick another API to play with Figure out some organization for the code before it got out of hand Ok, I guess there was a third goal too: Make it not so ugly. I'll start with the last one, which was to make the app not look like a middle schooler banging something out with Microsoft FrontPage. Quite frankly, I suck at UI stuff. I'm a "function over form" guy and I'm quite happy architecting the back end of an application far far away from the perils of CSS, responsive layouts, and viewports. For this I used my phone-a-friend and dialed upjQuery Mobile. JQM has been around for a while and it doesn't make web pages that very unique (kind of like the BootStrap cookie cutter sites) but it's stupid simple to setup and covers every major navigation, button, control, and layout concern I'll be detailing with. https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/cfclient-the-agony-the-ecstasy-making-it-purty Fri, 09 Jan 2015 10:32:00 GMT brad@ortussolutions.com (Brad Wood) CFClient ColdFusion ColdFusion Builder JQuery Mobile https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/cfclient-the-agony-the-ecstasy-making-it-purty I have consistently been impressed by the number and quality of JQuery plugins that abound. Today at work we ran across JQuery Corners. This friggin' awesome plugin allows you to put rounded corners on your divs and it's oh, so easy. https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/JQuery-Corners-What-Will-They-Think-Of-Next Sat, 21 Mar 2009 06:26:00 GMT brad@ortussolutions.com (Brad Wood) JavaScript JQuery https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/JQuery-Corners-What-Will-They-Think-Of-Next
