Background: Common Pain Points When writing HTTP requests in TypeScript projects, we often encounter these issues: Scattered code: URLs, headers, and query strings end up spread across different parts of the codebase. Inconsistent styles: Each developer writes request functions differently. Some mutate input values inside the function, others use external utilities. This leads to poor reusability and harder...

When we talk about the history of knowledge and information, it's natural to write and endure. The information is one step; the next step is how to retrieve and search the information storage.Thisalso occurs with the most modern software applications, where we need to handle various databases and different methods for retrieving information. Furthermore, we need to learn how to retrieve information through queries. The...
Delegate it a task, and coding agent can independently write, run, and test code. Hereβs how you can make the most of it. The post GitHub Copilot coding agent 101: Getting started with agentic workflows on GitHub appeared first on The GitHub Blog.
TL; DR: The Generative AI Precision Anti-Pattern Hereβs another one for your collection: The Generative AI Precision Anti-Pattern, where organizations wield LLMs like precision instruments when theyβre probabilistic tools by design. Sound familiar? Itβs the same pattern we see when teams cargo-cult agile practices without understanding their purpose. LLMs excel at text summarization and pattern recognition in large...
In the current fast-paced digital age, many data sources generate an unending flow of information, a never-ending torrent of facts and figures that, while perplexing when examined separately, provide profound insights when examined together. Stream processing can be useful in this situation. It fills the void between real-time data collecting and actionable insights. Itβs a data processing practice that handles...
Data breaches are a constant threat, and traditional encryption practices often aren't enough to protect sensitive information throughout its entire lifecycle. We just posted a course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will teach you how to...
The Open Worldwide Application Security Project, OWASP, has just released its top 10 non-human identities risks for 2025. While other OWASP resources broadly address application and API security, none focus specifically on the unique challenges of NHIs. This new document fills that gap, addressing risks that are often overlooked but have critical implications for organizational security. This release is a significant...

Previously, in Part VIII:SHAP: Powerful, But Can We Trust It? Strengths and vulnerabilities of SHAP explanations.
Any modern application is centered around APIs. They drive mobile applications, link business systems, and deliver new digital experiences. However, the convenience has its own risks β attackers often use APIs to break into systems. Basic security steps like authentication and rate limits are no longer enough. Attackers now use stolen credentials, automated scripts, and advanced methods to target APIs. To stay safe,...

The simplest system architecture is a single, monolithic process. This is the gold standard of all possible architectures. Why is it a thing worthy of reverence? Because it involves a single programming language and no interprocess communication, i.e. a messaging library. Software development doesnβt get more carefree than life within the safe confines of a single process. In the age of websites and cloud computing,...
The Vision framework was introduced by Apple in 2017 at WWDC as part of iOS 11. Its launch marked a turning point in the evolution of machine vision and image analysis, providing developers with native tools to analyse visual content and perform subsequent processing as needed. In 2017, Vision introduced the following:
Todayβs online users expect instant, personalized supportβwhether theyβre comparing day to day online products, troubleshooting a technical issue, or just looking for a quick answer. Basic keyword-based chatbots can only take you so far. To truly connect with customers, your bot needs "context". It needs to remember past interactions, anticipate needs, and respond with more than just predefined scripts. In this...
My journey in the technical field has taken me from hands-on software engineering to the CTOβs role. In my monthly and quarterly routines at my current position, I regularly evaluate the efficiency of contributors: engineers, designers, QA, DevOps, and cross-functional teams overall. And over time, Iβve come to a clear conclusion: traditional engineering metrics like velocity, story points, or arguably lines of code...
For promising Gen Z students, a career as a software developer seemed like the golden ticket to career stability and success. But in the age of AI, the career promise for Gen Z software developers is gone.
In Redis, everything begins with a key. A key is more than just a string that points to a value. It defines how your data is organized, retrieved, and queried. A well-designed key structure makes it easier to group related records, filter by attributes, and scale queries as datasets grow. On the other hand, poor key design can lead to inefficient lookups, expensive scans, and unnecessary complexity in your application...
Most developers are introduced to databases and APIs through a simple pattern: CRUDβCreate, Read, Update, Delete. It seems like the perfect abstraction. With just four operations, you can model almost anything. Tutorials use it. Frameworks generate i...
Recently, I came across an interesting scenario: one application had a cron job constantly polling an API for active offers, just to refresh a Redis cache that powered the offer view. So, I started thinkingβisnβt there a better way to handle this? Or at least a way to offload such repetitive tasks outside the application itself? Thatβs when it hit me: this pattern looks way too similar to the CDC flows we already...

I want to share a story from our team at SigNoz. For a long time, our platform had a mildy-frustrating query builder. In the early days, we had separate interfaces for logs, traces, and metrics, which led to a fragmented experience. Our next attempt to unify it with a SQL-based UI was fundamentally flawed, especially for logs, as it couldn't handle complex boolean logic or parentheses. After 2 years of accumulating...
Data analyst Xiao Hua rubs his sore eyes, staring blankly at the computer screen. He can't help but complain, "This data export is so slow!" Indeed, waiting for MySQL protocol to transfer large volumes of data feels like trying to drink a barrel of water through a straw β when will it ever end?
Building a browser extension is easy, but ensuring that itβs accessible to everyone takes deliberate care and skill. Your extension might fetch data flawlessly and have a beautiful interface, but if screen reader users or keyboard navigators canβt us...
Part 1: The Very Basics How Does It Really Work? In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a buzzword, especially with the emergence of tools like ChatGPT.
