Demystifying React
Last updated: Friday, December 26, 2025
Published in: CODE Magazine: 2018 - September/October
In "Demystifying React," Milton Abe clarifies React's nature as a JavaScript library focused on building scalable, performant user interfaces rather than a full framework like Angular. Milton highlights React's key concepts—JSX, components, state, props, one-way data binding, lifecycle methods, and virtual DOM—and demonstrates how they collaborate to enable efficient UI development. Through a step-by-step CRUD example, he illustrates React’s practical usage, emphasizing best practices and the advantages of controlling component state manually. Milton ultimately conveys that React offers a powerful, flexible, and maintainable approach to modern web app development.

Building a CODE Framework Service and Consuming It on an iPhone Application
Last updated: Friday, December 26, 2025
Published in: VFP Conversion Papers, CODE Magazine: 2013 - May/June
In this article, you will create a CODE Framework RESTful service and an iPhone application from scratch. For the client side, you will utilize XCode (yes, you’ll need a Mac!), which uses Objective-C as the primary language. This article won’t teach you the language; you need to know the basics of Objective-C. Even if you don’t know anything about it but want to code right away, read the article “Building a Twitter Search Client on iOS,” by Ben Scherman, available for all CODE readers in the Xiine application for Windows, Android, and iPhone. For the database, you’ll use any instance of SQL Server 2008. The service will be written in C#, using the latest version of CODE Framework, available on http://codeframework.codeplex.com, where you will find not only the download link, but also a lot of useful information.

Building an Android Application to Search Twitter
Last updated: Tuesday, February 19, 2019
Published in: CODE Magazine: 2011 - September/October
From users to developers, mobile applications used to be (not so long ago) uninteresting. Complicated flows, non-intuitive screens and limited features available used to discourage anyone. PDAs had a poor user interface with limited colors (the first ones were only black and white). It was very complicated and boring to write any code for it. Cell phones used to be a device where you could make and receive phone calls. Eventually you could play some games. But you know what? Even the games were boring most of the time!

Post Mortem: Xiine for Android

Digital content is becoming more popular. E-book readers encourage people that like to read, to read even more because they can take all of their books on one lightweight gadget. Even though I still love hard copies of a book (you don’t need power to read it), I have had very good experiences with several digital readers.
