New website

It was about time to get my website up2date… once again. In order to get it right this time, I decided to use Jekyll this time, and host everything on GitHub using their excellent GitHub Pages service.

Nice transition from splash screen to main application screen using fade out and zoom in animation

Change the -application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method of your application delegate class like this (assuming your splash image is named Default.png):
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
// Put necessary initialization steps here...
// Add imageView overlay with fade out and zoom in animation
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.window.frame];
imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"Default"]; // assuming your splash image is "Default.png" or "Default@2x.png"
[self.window addSubview:imageView];
[self.window bringSubviewToFront:imageView];
[UIView transitionWithView:self.window
duration:0.75f
options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionNone
animations:^(void){
imageView.alpha = 0.0f;
imageView.frame = CGRectInset(imageView.frame, -100.0f, -100.0f);
}
completion:^(BOOL finished){
[imageView removeFromSuperview];
}];
[imageView release];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}

Rounded rect additions for UILabel

Category on UILabel which adds a property showsRoundedRect, which, if set to YES, causes the label to be drawn on a rounded rect, similar to the emblem shown for the number of new mails in the iPhone Mail app. Check out the Gist on Github.

git-utils - Various git related utilities

Git Utils is a collection of simple utilities that made my Git life easier in some way or another. I tried to clean them up as much as necessary prior to putting here, so it should be easy to use for others as well.

Installation

You don’t need anything special, just a working installation of Git and a UNIX system (tested with Mac OS X and Linux). To install the git-utils into /usr/local run

$ sudo make install

or just pick the scripts that you need and place them wherever you want.

Description

git-copy

Copy file from source path to target path and add the target path to the Git index.

git-push-all

Invoke git-push for all configured remote repositories.
