Re:Ask HN: Good ERP System for Growing Hardware Startup? on Tuesday February 07, 2017 @06:02PM (#13593819)
There are two that i like.

Odoo (once openerp) has a lot of modules for all kinds of hardware/manufacturing/ stock management etc. Overall not a bad system.

https://www.odoo.com/

ERPNext is the other one, with a cool mobile app as well, so easy to manage on the road. Its pretty light weight and easy to extend if needed.

https://erpnext.com/

I have used this tool with success before

https://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/

You can tell it to reverse engineer the db and it will construct diagrams for you. It has good tools for visually mapping as well.

And its FREE !!!!!!

I develop with Go on Windows 10 and have had no issues. I use vscode as an IDE, as long as your GOPATH is set correctly, everything works fine.

What issues are you experiencing?

This isnt web based but i use mysql workbench. Great tool. Has lots of little time saving features like table templates (can quickly right click and add a new table based upon a template u have created. Real time saver) and many many other goodies.

Re:Ask HN: Best way to learn ios dev? on Thursday May 31, 2012 @07:07PM (#4050914)
check out the Ray Wenderlick tutorials, really well explained, up to date with storyboards and really well paced tutorials. Our staff loved them, and helped them get up to speed very quickly. http://www.raywenderlich.com/
we have used it extensively in our applications, some of them with over 20 different views. The real power of the storyboard is to give you a visual guide to the flow of your application, and also a quick and easy way to get an overall picture of whats going where. We havent had any issues with it so far (but i know that some people have), but i am unable to offer a good reason why we havent had any issues, apart from maybe just dumb luck.

Our coders are now totaly in love with the storyboard view and i doubt i could get them to change easily. They are now producing code and apps 20%-30% faster than before simply due to the ability to see what is going on globally.

Another great feature is that you can easily demonstrate and allow non technical people to see the flow of screens and interactions.

jira is one of the best

you can download and install local or run in a hosted solution.

Re:Ask HN: Getting into iOS Development (Advice)? on Monday November 21, 2011 @12:31AM (#3260125)
There is lots of work available, but be prepared to fight tooth and nail to make a decent profit from it.

if you dont know Obj-C and have some js knowledge then you can get up to speed very quickly using titanium appacelerator

http://www.appcelerator.com/

Uses js to do most things, so as a stopgap until you have fully learnt Obj-C this might be a good gentle introduction to iPhone dev. It also produces Android code (with some massaging).

Re:Ask HN: Library to pretty print JSON? on Tuesday February 22, 2011 @11:45PM (#2253082)
i dont quite understand, the plugins allow you to view the resultant JSON from an ajax request. Sorry for misunderstanding.

The Firefox plugin states:

Normally when encountering a JSON document (content type "application/json"), Firefox simply prompts you to download the view. With the JSONView extension, JSON documents are shown in the browser similar to how XML documents are shown. The document is formatted, highlighted, and arrays and objects can be collapsed. Even if the JSON document contains errors, JSONView will still show the raw text.
