I am making my first steps coding. And since a time ago I started experimenting with Three.js.
I changed the settings of Chrome and Safari to use local files, but some months later my safari and chrome are dead, and it stops showing the local files even if I change the settings to allow local files.
It seems that it brokes if I use it a lot. Why it happens? Is there a solution to avoid this problem?
I tryed to look for this problem in Google but I can't find anything. I am using the last versions of safari, chrome and three.js and even like this Safari and Chrome still broken.
Is not a problem of my graphic card because I can see all kind of experiments in the web. Is a problem of my local files.
For example I can see this perfectly on my browsers: http://threejs.org/examples/#webgl_geometry_text
But if I download three.js and I open it from my desktop my browsers doesn't display it.
Use a webserver. It's super simple and easy. The easiest is python which is built into OSX (you mentioned safari so I'm assuming you're on OSX)
Open a terminal, cd to the folder your files are in, type
python -m SimpleHTTPServer
Now go to http://localhost:8000
The only issue with python's simple webserver is it's really slow. For 2 faster alternatives there's devd which once you've downloaded it you just type
cd path/to/your/files
path/to/devd .
devd even includes a live-reload feature so when you edit your files the browser auto-reload
Another alternative is node.js. Install it then in a terminal type
sudo npm install -g http-server
from that point on you can go to any folder and type
http-server
then in the browser go to http://localhost:8080.
Both devd and node.js are fast
Going the node.js route you can then learn about things like webpack and npm and/or bower which make it super easy to include libraries and use advanced features and advance your skills

We are having a problem viewing our vue templates in Chrome dev tools. This is a recent issue, it's been working fine for a couple of years.
Our app is a legacy MVC app, with new development in vue, using web pack to compile the source code.
To compile for development, we run:
npx webpack --mode development --watch
In the webapck.config we have devtool: "inline-source-map" set.
However, in the last couple of weeks, the components now look like this:
I don't know if a package has been updated or it's a Chrome thing. I can see Chrome is mapping it to a source file, but I don't really know what I'm looking at - maybe some kind of pointer file. I'm not really a UI guy, so I find it frustrating when stuff that used to work, no longer does!
I developed a chrome extension to solve a specific problem. I'm going to distribute it. But I dont want to my user down a chrome then install a extension and change chrome setting in order to unforbid my extension.
I'd like to pack the whole thing into one installation execution. Users just need to download the installation program, install it, then they get a special chrome with my extension on it. Everything is done.
How can I do this?
I've installed jekyll 3.1.6 on Mint 17 (ubuntu 14.4) with
ruby 2.2 + python 2.7
My browsers are Chromium and Firefox
I think I've tried every trick I can find on the internet, but it still won't auto-reload, even though the terminal does say that auto-regeneration has been enabled and with each file content change and save, the terminal logs the change and tells me it's been done. But I'm still forced to refresh a page manually to see the changes.
Open to any and all suggestions.
Jekyll auto-generation future(Using jekyll server) automatically change/modify the files on _site folder only, it does not refresh browser windows automatically, you have to use grunt for that. There are already many of NPM packages and Repo for that.
I would like to reuse already installed in the system Chromium browser and do not additionally install Chrome (because then I can't use Chromium at the same time - they share one profile folder by default on OSX, also for other reasons)
Here are ideas, the problem is - they are just conceptual, not ready to implement:
edit Brackets configs (didn't find much of them) to call Chromium (how it calls)
edit Chromium configs (to mimic the Chrome?)
use dev tools remote debugger and connect to created web-socket
create link to Chromium via: sudo ln -s ~/Applications/Chromium.app/Contents/MacOS/Chromium /usr/bin/google-chrome // didn't work
connect to the simple static server from the folder (via httpster) // didn't work
How is it possible to use Chromium instead of Google Chrome to use Brackets' Live Development feature?
On Mac, Brackets locates Chrome based on its bundle identifier. So in theory, if you hack Chromium's Info.plist to change its bundle id to com.google.Chrome (and I guess remove or patch any copies of Chrome that might collide with that) -- then Brackets should launch Chromium for you.
In the future, Brackets plans to make this more configurable as an official feature - but it's not there yet.
I use the stable version of Google Chrome as my default browser on my system. I now need to work on a project requiring the development version of Chrome, yet I do not wish to replace my system install of Chrome.
Does there exist a standalone package of Chome which can be unpacked into a folder and executed entirely from there? Ie, it should not require anything to be installed, it should not touch the profile associated with my installed version of Chrome. I should be able to download different versions of this into different folders, and be sure that they do not conflict with each other..
(Ideally we could package up prototype builds complete with a copy of this version of Chrome. These packages would then be as self contained as a desktop application...)
You could download the Chromium flavour (which is the open source browser that runs Google Chrome). You can download the latest and greatest from:
http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/continuous/LATEST/
If you have specific dates/revision that you want to download, you can pick them from:
http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/continuous/
That will not interfere with the current version of Chrome, instead it will be using Chromium folder structure (chrome replaced with chromium everywhere).
Simply get the portable version, it does what as you need.
As an answer above, you could get Chromium (portable) which also includes chromedriver from chromium snapshots page.
Pick one with the biggest number (scroll down):
https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html?prefix=Win_x64/
If the link is dead, there is always a solution to build it from source code, it's a benefit of open source application.

Hope it helps!
I believe Chrome on Windows installs itself into the Application Data (/Users on Win7) folder of a user. While I can't test this at the moment, try creating a new user account, install Chrome, then log into your other account. Then try running both at the same time. Might be a bit hard to find the executable.
Another option would be to run it in a VM. More expensive versions of Win7 have this somewhat built-in (you need to download an XP image from Microsoft, but the VM software is pre-installed, I think) but you can also install VirtualBox + your own ISO. On a decent computer system, you shouldn't get too much of a performance hit.
A really silly way of doing this is installing the multiple concurrent users Remote Desktop hack, Remote Desktopping to your own computer (if that's possible) and running the second Chrome install as a different user.
