Learn Angular-material, Riot and Tweenlite

AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

Themes convey meaning through color, tones, and contrasts. And the theme color palettes, alphas, and shadows deliver a consistent tone to your application and a unified feel for all Angular Material UI components. Theming allows developers to change the intention and meaning of the application by changing the colors and shadows. 

Accessibility is a huge - often overlooked - feature in modern web applications. Angular Material components all implement ARIA features whenever possible. And for usage scenarios where the ARIA attributes are not explicitly provided and cannot be inferred, then Angular Material will provide details console warnings alerting the developer.

Let’s use the Angular Material Theming service to change the background, primary, accent, and warning colors used within the entire application. These will be configured at startup using the $mdThemeProvider.  

Let’s also resolve the two ARIA warnings shown in console. These originate from icon buttons where the ARIA label cannot be inferred. So let’s add a static aria-label and a dynamic, interpolated aria-label to those buttons.

Angular Material: Theming and ARIA

Most Angular Material UI components are declarative and used directly in the HTML markup. Some components, however, are programmatic and must be configured and invoked from Javascript. Programmatic components have a short-term, limited DOM lifespan and include Dialogs, Toast, and BottomSheet.

Let’s use the BottomSheet service to configure and display an Angular Material BottomSheet container which in turn will display a nested, custom Contact Sheet view.

Angular Material: Using a BottomSheet

Both flexbox CSS and the Angular Material Layout allow web applications to `respond` to the size of the browser at any given point. No matter what the browser width may be, the web app adjusts its layout sizing accordingly. Combine responsive functionality with media query support and your web applications will have `adaptive` features to adapt to the width of the browser at a specific points. More than fluidly adjusting the widths and heights of elements, Adaptive applications can change the rendered UX with new positions, new components, and new styles. Angular Material Layout hides the complexities of implementing adaptive features with a singularly unique and simple HTML syntax.
Let’s use the Adaptive extensions of the Angular Material API to hide the SideNav on small devices (like iPhone or Android). We will explore the use of the $mdMedia service to easily lock open the SideNav on larger devices. And we will see how the $mdSideNav service can be used to programmatically close the SideNav after a user is selected.

Angular Material: Adaptive Layouts

Angular Material UI components have been designed from the ground-up to use dynamic, live data. Supporting AngularJS interpolation, expressions, and databindings… each component exposes an intuitive API and fully supports the existing ng-<xxx> directives published in AngularJS.

Let’s replace the hard-coded, static HTML with dynamic, mock data using AngularJS data bindings, ng-repeat, and the ng-click directives. Our UX remains unchanged, yet now we are using custom application logic and dataservices.

Introduction to AngularJS Material

The Angular Material Layout API wraps the flexbox CSS features with an amazingly easy, powerful HTML markup API. The Layout API hides the complexities of the CSS, is intuitive to use, and eliminates the need for developers to become flexbox experts to implement modern page layouts. 

In this lesson we will learn how to use the Angular Material Container components and the Layout API to implement the layouts specified in design wireframe.

Angular Material: Installing with NPM

Angular Material provides over 30 UI components and services. The framework offers a suite of components and containers: from simple Button components with built-in ink and hover effects, theming, and ARIA support… to more complex container components like mdList and Tabs.  

Let’s use some of those components in our SideNav and Content containers. For now we will use hard-coded, HTML markup. This allows us to confirm the UX matches that specified in the design docs before we start working on our application logic.

Angular Material: Intro to UI Components

Riot brings custom tags to all modern browsers. Think React + Polymer but with enjoyable syntax and a small learning curve.

riot

It's easy to repeat over a collection and render many elements. Riot works very similar to Angular and has various syntaxes for it's each attribute. We'll look at the typical syntax for arrays, a shortened syntax, and an object key/value syntax.

Riot JS - Repeating Elements with Each Attribute

Riot takes a 'keep your styles close' approach with custom tags. You are encouraged to place your styles for a tags element right inline with the html and javascript. Learn how riot parses the inline styles as well as ways to keep your styles from bleeding out to the rest of your app. Scoped styles provide great isolation for your custom tag. Use the class attribute's special binding syntax to easily add and remove a class based on an expression.

Riot JS - Scoped CSS and Toggled Classes

Riot can listen for raw dom events on any element by adding the on* attribute to elements and referencing an event handler. Let's walk through a couple examples.

Riot JS - DOM Events

Every tag in Riot has a lifecycle. I'll explore the three hooks: mount, update, and unmount while adding an animation feature for an existing tag. Lifecycle hooks are important for setting up, tearing down, and keeping a tag's view up to date after external logic is run.

Riot JS - Tag Life Cycle Hooks

Tag Options allow you to abstract your custom tag elements into reusable objects by allowing the tag-user to specify the dynamic parameters of their component.

Riot JS - Tag Options

Getting started with Riot JS. We'll discuss riot's compile and mount process and build a small hello world component with simple data-binding.

TypeScript can sometimes feel like bunch of nonsense. But once you internalize a few key patterns, the type system starts to feel like a powerful tool instead of an obstacle.

Here are a few tricks that I’ve personally found valuable, especially if you’re working on a large codebase or building libraries.

---

## 1. Optional Keys vs Optional Values

There’s a big difference between marking a property as optional and allowing `undefined` as a value. These look similar:

```ts
type OptionalKey = {
  foo?: string;
}

type OptionalValue = {
  foo: string | undefined;
}
```

But they behave differently:

* `foo?: string` means the key `foo` might not be present at all.
* `foo: string | undefined` means `foo` is always present, but its value might be `undefined`.

Why this matters? The difference between them affects the way you use it:

* How you check if a property exists
* Function argument inference
* Serializing/deserializing data from external sources

### Example

```ts
function logFoo(obj: OptionalKey) {
  if ('foo' in obj) {
    console.log(obj.foo?.toUpperCase());
  }
}

function logBar(obj: OptionalValue) {
  console.log(obj.foo?.toUpperCase()); // May log undefined
}
```

As a rule of thumb, use `foo?: Type` (Optional Key) when the property might not be present, and `foo: Type | undefined` (Optional Value) when the key is always expected.

---

## 2. Pick and Omit for Object Key Manipulation

When you need to reshape object types by including or excluding specific keys, `Pick` and `Omit` are your go-to tools.

This type utilities are part of the language and are always available for your use, they are particulary useful when you need to derive types.

> Don't forget, Pick and Omit works over Object shapes

### Pick

```ts
type User = {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  email: string;
};

type PublicUser = Pick<User, 'id' | 'name'>;
// { id: number; name: string }
```

`Pick` is useful when exposing a public-facing API without leaking sensitive fields, it lets you choose what properties will be included

### Omit

```ts
type PrivateUser = Omit<User, 'email'>;
// { id: number; name: string }
```

Use `Omit` when you want to reuse a base type but remove some fields for specific scenarios, like forms or UI display logic.

These utilities keep your types DRY and consistent. Instead of redefining structures, you can derive them from existing ones, reducing duplication and potential errors.

---

## 3. Extract and Exclude for Union Filtering

Unlike `Pick` and `Omit`, which work on object keys, `Extract` and `Exclude` operate on union types, they are pretty similar in how the work.

### Extract

```ts
type Status = 'draft' | 'published' | 'archived';

type ArchivedOnly = Extract<Status, 'archived'>;
// 'archived'
```

Use `Extract` when you want to narrow down a union to only include specific members.

### Exclude

```ts
type VisibleStatus = Exclude<Status, 'archived'>;
// 'draft' | 'published'
```

Use `Exclude` when you want to remove one or more members from a union.


These are essential tools when refining API responses, filtering variants, or creating conditional logic that needs to type-check specific string literal options.

---

## 4. Loose Autocomplete

This is a different kind of trick, this one affects how your editor understand your types.

Sometimes you want to offer a set of suggestions to the user without forcing them to pick from a fixed list.

### The trick

```ts
type Variant = 'success' | 'warning' | 'info'

function setVariant(variant: Variant | (string & {})) {
  // ...
}
```

Now TypeScript will offer autocompletion for the variants defined in the `Variant` union, but will also allow  allow any other string.


`string & {}` is essentially still a string, but TypeScript treats it as a branded version, preserving autocomplete while keeping it assignable to `string`.

> [Here](https://egghead.io/blog/using-branded-types-in-typescript) you can found another article related to [Branded Types](https://egghead.io/blog/using-branded-types-in-typescript)

### Use cases

* Props with suggested values
* Config objects
* Third-party data with flexible inputs

---

## 5. Mapped Types for Smart Rewrites

Mapped types let you create new types from existing ones by transforming each property. This concept is a cornerstone of TypeScript’s type system and is covered more deeply in my article: [Learn the Key Concepts of TypeScript’s Powerful Generic and Mapped Types](https://egghead.io/blog/learn-the-key-concepts-of-typescript-s-powerful-generic-and-mapped-types).

You can consider Mapped types as some kind of function that transform a type in another by using all of the utilities and features of Typescript, like the above utilities and tricks, but also string literals, and more.

### Example: feature flags

```ts
type Config = {
  debug: string;
  logging: string;
};

type FeatureFlags = {
  [K in keyof Config]: boolean;
};
// This will create the following type
// { debug: boolean; logging: boolean }
```

### General Utility Type

```ts
type Booleanize<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: boolean;
};
```

Mapped types are perfect for:

* Adapting backend responses
* Creating flexible utility types
* Rewriting shapes while preserving keys
* Enforcing contracts between layers

They’re also essential in combination with generics to create reusable type logic across your app or library.

> Found more about Generics in the following article [An Introduction to Typescript Generics](https://egghead.io/blog/an-introduction-to-typescript-generics)

---

## 6. The IIMT Pattern (Infer Inside Mapped Type)

This pattern unlocks the power of `infer` within mapped types, allowing you to extract and reuse internal type information from complex structures.

It dynamically inspects each property of a type (by using `infer`), and if that property matches a specific shape (e.g., a function), it extracts part of it.

This means you can build new types that are entirely based on the structure of other types without manually copying anything.

### The pattern

```ts
type API = {
  getUser: () => Promise<{ name: string }>;
  logout: () => void;
};

type ReturnTypes<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: T[K] extends (...args: any) => infer R ? R : never;
};

// Result:
// {
//   getUser: Promise<{ name: string }>;
//   logout: void;
// }
```

Here, ReturnTypes iterates over each key in the API object and uses conditional types to check if the value is a function. If it is, it uses infer R to grab the return type of that function.

### How it works
- `keyof T` iterates over each key of the input type.
- `T[K]` accesses the value type at each key.
- `T[K] extends (...args: any) => infer R` checks if that value is a function. (consider this as a conditional block)
-  `infer R` captures the return type of the function.
- If the value is not a function, the fallback is never.

This pattern is composable—you can use it to build return type maps, argument type maps, or anything else you need.

```ts
type ArgumentTypes<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: T[K] extends (...args: infer A) => any ? A : never;
};
```

This will give you a type with the argument list of each function in a mapped type.

You can use this in different situations like:

- Generating automatic schemas
- Building strongly-typed service clients
- Rewriting function maps
- Validating types without duplicating logic

If you’re building libraries or dynamic APIs, this pattern is a must-have in your TypeScript toolbox.

Once it clicks, it opens the door to expressive, scalable, and maintainable type logic.

AI Dev Essentials #8: Claude's Costly Lessons, Google's AI Flood & Workshop Alert 🚀

Claude Max Mode in Cursor is powerful but pricey—one vague task can rack up costs fast. Learn how to control it and explore the latest AI dev tools.

Debugging complex web forms can be a grind. You manually input data, check console logs, and painstakingly try to reproduce bugs. This lesson unveils a powerful, largely automated workflow using Cursor's AI agent in conjunction with the Playwright MCP to thoroughly test a web form, identify issues, and even fix the underlying code.

First, you'll see how to instruct the AI to instrument your form's code with exhaustive console logging. Then, by providing only the URL of the live form, you'll delegate the testing process to the AI, which uses Playwright to interact with the form in multiple ways, attempting to break it and discover edge cases. The AI then analyzes the generated console logs to produce a detailed report of its findings. Finally, armed with this report and the original code, the AI can attempt to fix the identified bugs and re-verify its changes, all while you "go get a sandwich."

**Workflow demonstrated in this lesson:**

*   Instruct Cursor's AI agent to add comprehensive `console.log` statements to your form's TypeScript (.tsx) file.
*   Provide the live URL of the web form (running on `localhost`) to the AI, without giving it direct access to the updated code file.
*   Direct the AI to use the Playwright MCP to open the URL in a browser.
*   Task the AI with devising and executing multiple test scenarios (e.g., empty submission, invalid inputs, mismatched passwords) to fill out and submit the form.
*   Have the AI retrieve and analyze the browser's console logs after each test attempt.
*   Generate a consolidated report detailing the form's behavior, observed errors, and potential bugs based on the logs.
*   Instruct the AI to use this report and the original form code (now brought back into context) to fix the identified issues.
*   Optionally, have the AI re-run the tests to verify the fixes.

**Key benefits:**

*   **Automated Test Execution:** Leverage Playwright through Cursor to automatically interact with your live form.
*   **AI-Driven Test Case Generation:** The AI devises different input strategies to uncover bugs.
*   **Log-Based Bug Reporting:** Automatically capture and analyze console output to pinpoint issues.
*   **Hands-Off Debugging:** Delegate the testing and initial bug reporting to the AI.
*   **Efficient Bug Fixing Cycle:** Use AI-generated reports to quickly guide AI-assisted code corrections.
*   **Focus on High-Level Direction:** Instead of manual testing, you guide the AI's testing strategy and bug-fixing process.

By the end of this lesson, you'll have a robust method for delegating the tedious aspects of form testing and debugging to Cursor's AI, allowing for more efficient development and a more reliable end product.

---

**Phase 1: Instrumenting Code with Exhaustive Logging**

**Context:**
*   `{@filePath}` (e.g., `App.tsx`) is in Cursor's context.

**Prompt:**
"In `{@filePath}`, add exhaustive console logging for all form events, state changes, and validation logic. Focus on capturing input values, current errors, and the outcome of validation checks. The goal is to have detailed logs for later analysis. Do *not* fix any existing code errors; only add logging. Stop after modifying the file."

---

**Phase 2: AI-Driven Form Testing with Playwright and Log Analysis**

**Context:**
*   `{@formURL}` (e.g., `http://localhost:5173`) is in Cursor's context.
*   The live form at `{@formURL}` should be running the version of the code that *includes the exhaustive logging* added in Phase 1.
*   Playwright MCP is available.

**Prompt:**
"Using the Playwright MCP and the live form at `{@formURL}`:
1.  Devise [N, e.g., 3-5] distinct test scenarios to fill out and submit the form. Include scenarios designed to trigger validation errors and edge cases (e.g., empty submission, invalid data types, boundary values, mismatched passwords).
2.  For each scenario:
    *   Execute the form interaction using Playwright.
    *   Retrieve all browser console logs generated during that interaction.
3.  Compile a consolidated 'Form Behavior Report' detailing:
    *   Each test scenario and the inputs used.
    *   Observed behavior/UI state (e.g., error messages displayed).
    *   Key console log outputs relevant to errors or unexpected behavior.
    *   Any discrepancies or potential bugs identified.

---

**Phase 3: Fixing Bugs Based on AI Report and Re-Verification**

**Context:**
*   The 'Form Behavior Report' from Phase 2 is in the chat history.
*   `{@filePath}` (e.g., `App.tsx` – the original file, *not* the one Playwright interacted with, unless it's the same deploy) is in Cursor's context.
*   The live form at `{@formURL}` can be updated/re-deployed with fixes.
*   Playwright MCP is available.

**Prompt:**
"Based on the 'Form Behavior Report' (from our previous conversation) and the code in `{@filePath}`:
1.  Analyze the reported issues and implement the necessary code changes in `{@filePath}` to fix them.
2.  After applying the fixes and assuming the live form at `{@formURL}` is updated with these changes:
    *   Re-run *all previously defined test scenarios* using the Playwright MCP.
    *   Retrieve and analyze the console logs for each.
3.  Provide a verification summary: confirm if the original bugs are fixed and if any new regressions were introduced."

Capture Browser Logs with Playwright MCP in Cursor to Generate Reports

Fixing runtime errors in web applications, especially those that require browser interaction or appear in stages, can be a tedious back-and-forth. This lesson demonstrates how to create a powerful, automated debugging loop using Playwright MCP integrated into Cursor IDE via custom Rules, allowing the AI to interact with your live application, identify errors, and iteratively fix them.

**Workflow demonstrated in this lesson:**

*   Install and configure the Playwright MCP server in Cursor settings.
*   Create a custom Cursor Rule (e.g., "autofix") instructing the AI to:
    *   Use Playwright MCP to open a specified URL in a browser.
    *   Check for any errors displayed on the page.
    *   Automatically attempt to fix those errors in your codebase.
    *   Iterate this process until all errors are resolved.
*   Invoke the custom rule within Cursor's AI Agent, providing the application's URL.
*   Observe the AI agent launch Playwright, navigate the browser, identify errors, and apply code changes.
*   For errors hidden behind UI elements (like an error button), provide a screenshot to the AI, instructing it to interact with the UI to reveal and then fix subsequent errors.

**Key benefits:**

*   **Automated Debugging Cycle:** Let the AI handle the repetitive task of launching, testing, and fixing common web application errors.
*   **Iterative Problem Solving:** The AI can tackle multiple errors sequentially, making changes and re-testing.
*   **Browser Interaction:** Leverages Playwright to understand the application's state directly from the browser.
*   **Visual AI Assistance:** Use screenshots to guide the AI in interacting with UI elements to uncover and fix deeper issues.
*   **Reduced Manual Effort:** Spend less time manually debugging and more time on feature development.

By combining Playwright MCP with Cursor's AI Agent and custom Rules, you can significantly streamline your web development workflow, turning a frustrating debugging process into an automated one.
