At PSPDFKit, we build reliable and performant distributed systems with Elixir(opens in a new tab). In such systems, we often have to call external services, and asynchronous messaging allows clients to make these calls and not have to wait for the response. Messages that can’t be handled right away will be queued up and handled later, but what happens when the queue gets overloaded? Since we don’t

Nutrient’s mission is to provide the best way to view, annotate, and fill out forms in PDF documents on any platform. In late 2016, we released the first version of our Web SDK, which relies on a server component to render documents.

This time around, things were different, because not only did the screen size change — which was the case for previous hardware generations like the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and the 12.9" and 10.5" iPad Pro — but Apple also added a who

In March 2017, the WebAssembly Community Group reached a consensus on the initial (MVP) binary format, JavaScript API, and reference interpreter(opens in a new tab). This marked the beginning of a new era for high-performance computing in web browsers. Today, WebAssembly has become a critical component of the web ecosystem, enabling developers to run complex applications in the browser with near-n

At PSPDFKit, we continue to grow our product range, working hard to add new features and improve existing ones, all while handling the countless special cases the world of PDF contains. As a natural consequence of this, we have a large ever-growing codebase. But more code means longer build times, and nobody likes longer build times. So in this post, we’ll show how you can use the excellent tool d
