REST API Design Best Practices Handbook – How to Build a REST API with JavaScript, Node.js, and Express.js
By Jean-Marc Möckel I've created and consumed many API's over the past few years. During that time, I've come across good and bad practices and have experienced nasty situations when consuming and building API's. But there also have been great moments. There are helpful articles online which present many best practices, but many of them lack some practicality in my opinion. Knowing the theory with

I was continueing my exploration of React server components when I stumbled upon on this article about progressive JSON. Dan Abramov describes a technique for streaming JSON from a server to a client in chunks, allowing the client to start rendering parts of the data before the entire payload has been received. This can significantly improve perceived performance, especially for large datasets. So

In this post I’ll walk through the full implementation of a Virtual DOM in a bit over 200 lines of JavaScript. The result is a full-featured and sufficiently performant virtual DOM library (demos). It’s available on NPM as the smvc package. The main goal is to illustrate the fundamental technique behind tools like React. React, Vue and the Elm language all simplify the creation of interactive web
Today we’re excited to announce the release of TypeScript 5.2! If you’re not familiar with TypeScript, it’s a language that builds on top of JavaScript by making it possible to declare and describe types. Writing types in our code allows us to explain intent and have other tools check our code to catch mistakes like typos, issues with null and undefined, and more. Types also power TypeScript’s edi
On January 14, 2006, John Resig introduced a JavaScript library called jQuery at BarCamp in New York City. Now, 20 years later, the jQuery team is happy to announce the final release of jQuery 4.0.0. After a long development cycle and several pre-releases, jQuery 4.0.0 brings many improvements and modernizations. It is the first major version release in almost 10 years and includes some breaking c
Object Structure in JavaScript EnginesFrom a developer's perspective, objects in JavaScript are quite flexible and understandable. We can add, remove, and modify object properties on our own. However, few people think about how objects are stored in memory and processed by JS engines. Can a developer's actions, directly or indirectly, impact performance and memory consumption? Let's try to delve i

WebGPU is an upcoming Web API that gives you low-level, general-purpose access GPUs. I am not very experienced with graphics. I picked up bits and bobs of WebGL by reading through tutorials on how to build game engines with OpenGL and learned more about shaders by watching Inigo Quilez do amazing things on ShaderToy by just using shaders, without any 3D meshes or models. This got me far enough to

Use Thunder Client and VSCode as an alternative to Postman
Visual Studio Code (VSCode) is a popular code editor that can be used as an alternative to Postman for API testing.

Using Thunder Client with VSCode for API testing can streamline the development workflow and save time by using a single tool for coding and testing, as this article will sho

Local-first software: You own your data, in spite of the cloud
Cloud apps like Google Docs and Trello are popular because they enable real-time collaboration with colleagues, and they make it easy for us to access our work from all of our devices. However, by centralizing data storage on servers, cloud apps also take away ownership and agency from users. If a service shuts down, the software stops functioning, and data created with that software is lost. In t

As I’ve been using Next.js professionally on my employer’s web app, I find the core design of their App Router and React Server Components (RSC) to be extremely frustrating. And it’s not small bugs or that the API is confusing, but large disagreements about the fundamental design decisions that Vercel and the React team made when building it. The more webdev events I go to, the more I see people w
What if you don't need MCP at all? 2025-11-02 One chonky MCP server Table of contents After months of agentic coding frenzy, Twitter is still ablaze with discussions about MCP servers.

Introduction: Density Is King (With a Tiny VM) I've previously come to the conclusion that there's little reason for using bytecode in the modern world, except in order to get more compact code, for which it can be very effective. So, what kind of a bytecode engine will give you more compact code? Suppose I want a bytecode interpreter for a very small programming environment, specifically to minim
The Alkyne GC · mcyoung
Alkyne is a scripting language I built a couple of years ago for generating configuration blobs. Its interpreter is a naive AST walker1 that uses ARC2 for memory management, so it’s pretty slow, and I’ve been gradually writing a new evaluation engine for it. This post isn’t about Alkyne itself, that’s for another day. For now, I’d like to write down some notes for the GC I wrote3 for it, and more

Big O
Big O notation is a way of describing the performance of a function without using time. Rather than timing a function from start to finish, big O describes how the time grows as the input size increases. It is used to help understand how programs will perform across a range of inputs. In this post I'm going to cover 4 frequently-used categories of big O notation: constant, logarithmic, linear, and
Exploring The Potential Of Web Workers For Multithreading On The Web — Smashing Magazine
Multithreading is an important technique used in modern software development to enhance the performance and responsiveness of applications. However, it’s not a common practice on the web due to the single-threaded nature of JavaScript. To overcome this limitation, Web Workers were introduced as a way to enable this technique in web applications. In this article, Sarah Oke Okolo explores the import
