UI-Patterns.com is the work of Anders Toxboe – a Danish web developer seeking to categorize what has before seemed like ad hoc approaches to developing web applications.

By not only listing different ways of solving common design problems, but also rationalizing about how, when, and why such solutions should be used, it is the goal to create a tool that will help end feature debates, get a clear understanding of why we’re doing what we’re doing, and why we’re not doing what we’re not doing.

UI-Patterns.com is an attempt to over time create a library of such solutions to common problems. It is a personal project, but is extremely open to contributions.

User Interface Design Patterns
It has long been common practice in software design to use libraries of recurring solutions to solve common problems in software design. Such solutions are also called design patterns as described by legendary books.

Hudson monitors executions of repeated jobs, such as building a software project or jobs run by cron. Among those things, current Hudson focuses on the following two jobs:

Building/testing software projects continuously, just like CruiseControl or DamageControl. In a nutshell, Hudson provides an easy-to-use so-called continuous integration system, making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build. The automated, continuous build increases the productivity.
Monitoring executions of externally-run jobs, such as cron jobs and procmail jobs, even those that are run on a remote machine. For example, with cron, all you receive is regular e-mails that capture the output, and it is up to you to look at them diligently and notice when it broke. Hudson keeps those outputs and makes it easy for you to notice when something is wrong.

Cucumber lets software development teams describe how software should behave in plain text. The text is written in a business-readable domain-specific language and serves as documentation, automated tests and development-aid – all rolled into one format.

Optimize the delivery of high-quality, monetized video

Adobe will offer a standard open framework, code-named Strobe, that accelerates and simplifies media player creation for the Adobe® Flash® Platform. Its extensible plug-in architecture provides production-ready code that meets recurring development challenges, while helping publishers monetize their video content through seamless integration with partner services. With support for the latest player features such as Dynamic Streaming and DVR functionality, Strobe enables developers and ecosystem partners to fully utilize the powerful video features of the Flash Platform.

A tool for gathering usability feedback from web users in a low-impact manner.

It is a tool for checking foreground and background color combinations of all DOM elements and determining if they provide sufficient contrast when viewed by someone having color deficits.
All the tests are based on the algorithms suggested by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
