There’s a peculiar phenomenon in tech: every few years, we collectively decide that the previous architectural pattern was basically hot garbage, and the new shiny approach is the answer to everything. We’re living through that moment with micro-frontends. The hype is real. Blog posts everywhere declare that monoliths are dead, that enterprise-scale applications must adopt micro-frontends, and that if you’re still building monoliths in 2025, you’re basically coding like it’s the year 2000....
If you’ve ever had to manually write an SDK for your Go API, you know the feeling. It’s like being handed a massive spreadsheet and asked to transcribe it by hand while someone taps their pencil on the desk. Sure, you can do it, but why would you want to? This is exactly where SDK generation automation comes in—a lifeline for developers tired of maintaining boilerplate code. In this article, we’re going to dive deep into creating a tool that automates Go SDK generation from your REST APIs....
Let me be honest with you: if I told you five years ago that I’d be writing about controlling code with my brain, I would’ve laughed. But here we are, and frankly, the technology is fascinating enough that we should stop dismissing it as science fiction. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have evolved from labs with prohibitively expensive equipment to accessible, developer-friendly platforms that actually work. The question isn’t if you should explore this space—it’s when....
Remember when debugging meant alert() statements? Ah, the good old days—and by “good,” I mean absolutely terrible. Fast forward to today, and Firefox extension development has evolved into something actually enjoyable. You can build powerful browser extensions that extend Firefox’s capabilities without losing your sanity in the process. In this guide, we’re going to build a Firefox extension from the ground up. Whether you want to create a productivity tool, customize web pages, or build something wild and experimental, understanding how to develop Firefox extensions is a superpower worth having....
Building HTTP clients might seem straightforward until 3 AM when your service starts hammering a failing external API, burns through your rate limits, and cascades into total meltdown. We’ve all been there. Or maybe you haven’t yet—consider this your friendly warning from someone who has. The difference between a casual HTTP client and a production-grade one often comes down to two deceptively simple concepts: retries and circuit breakers. They’re not glamorous, but they’ll save your bacon when things inevitably go sideways....
