This is a collection of the things I believe about software development. I have worked for years building backend and data processing systems, so read the below within that context.

Keep it simple, stupid. You ain't gonna need it.
These instruction are for Windows, on my Linux installation(Fedora 21) everything works by just installing serialport with npm (I don't know why!).
These are the steps I did to build node serialport for electron (formerly atom-shell) for Windows. I am completely certain there is a better way to do it, but since I struggled with it for quite a while, here is a solution anyway.
You need some version of Visual studio installed, I have VS 2012 Express for Desktop.

| callerName = callerName.replace(/ \(.+\)$/, ''); // Sanitize Chrome | |

| console.log(callerName) |

The reflow appens as many times as there are frames per seconds. It recalculate all positions that change in order to diplay them. Basically, when you scroll you execute a function where you move things between two reflows. But there are functions that triggers reflows such as jQuery offset, scroll... So there are two things to take care about when you dynamically change objects in javascript to avoid too many reflows:
