Top Docker Tools: 51 Useful Docker Tools for Every Stage of the Development Pipeline By Angela Stringfellow Docker is sweeping across startups and enterprises alike, changing the way we build and ship applications. It's the most prominent and widely known software container platform, and it's particularly useful for eliminating common challenges when collaborating on code (like the "it works on my machine" phenomenon that most devs know all too well). With Docker, you can run and manage apps side-by-side - in isolated containers - resulting in better compute density. It's something that many developers don't think about, but you can even use Docker with ASP.NET. You probably don't need to be sold on the many appealing Docker capabilities, but you might not be familiar with the wide range of third-party tools that integrate seamlessly with Docker, from logging tools ...

Tap Tap Revenge Approaches 1 Million Users, Music Industry Takes Notice

Tapulous, the company behind Tap Tap Revenge, has announced that the popular iPhone app will hit 1 million installs some time this weekend. The app is the second we’ve heard from to hit the milestone (Facebook reached it last week), and is another testament to the extremely rapid growth some applications have seen on Apple’s newly launched App Store. Tapulous CEO Bart Decrem says that the application has been downloaded about 900 thousand times since its launch, and expects to hit the 1 million user milestone over the weekend. Tapulous’s iPhone Twitter client Twinkle is significantly less popular, with around 80,000 installs, but it was released after Tap Tap Revenge. Decrem notes that there is a total install base of about 5-6 million iPhones and iPod Touches running the 2.0 firmware (which is compatible with the App Store).

AppLoop Transforms Blogs Into Native iPhone Applications

Two-man startup AppLoop has added to its suite of self-service tools for iPhone developers by launching App Generator, which automatically turns any blog with an RSS feed into a native iPhone app modeled after that of the The New York Times. To create an app, all you have to do is answer a series of questions for the App Generator’s setup wizard. These include your blog’s address, name, icon and logo, as well as how much you’d like to charge for your application (if anything) and what color scheme you’d like to use. Once you finish the form (and verify that you are indeed the owner of the domain in question), AppLoop will submit your application to Apple for approval and, once approved, you can start promoting it to your readers. The first version of these self-service apps are fairly basic. You can browse a list of the most recent posts, save your favorite posts, ... (more)

Android 1.5 Early Look: No Multitouch SDK

The Google Android developer site announced an "early look" a the next version of the Java-based smart phone SDK. What is conspicuously missing in a multitouch SDK. You may remember that buried deep in the Android OS, Luke Hutchinson discovered support for multitouch. When people realized that multitouch was actually possible with Android, but was not officially supported, another story broke claiming that Google had not implemented multitouch at the request of Apple. Since then the hack to add multitouch to Android has been published so all Android developers can take advantage of it (assuming they are programming to hardware with a multitouch screen). As an example of just how powerful multitouch can be on Android, Endgadget broke the story about Elan Microelectronics video demonstration of their own multitouch hand held technology, eFinger, Sunday which is broadly re...
