A better GeoJSON

A better GeoJSON

GeoJSON is a widely-used format for encoding geographic data. It's flexible and human-readable, and because it's just JSON it's easy to integrate into web applications.

But it has some real warts, and if we wanted to we could certainly come up with a better format. After tweeting about my frustrations, I was asked to elaborate. Here goes:

Redundancy

GeoJSON geometries can be one of seven types: Point, MultiPoint, LineString, MultiLineString, Polygon, MultiPolygon and GeometryCollection.

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.

I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.

Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable

Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.
