This article is part of the broader series Product Development with Gen AI – Feedback Cycles, where I explore how different roles in product development contribute feedback loops that keep AI-generated outputs aligned with business…
Microservices are a hype. It made programmers more aware of methods to modularise large monolithic systems, because of stricter component boundaries.
James Shore is one of the promoters of TDD in Javascript. He is presenting codecasts on his website Let’s Code Javascript about how to work effectively in Javascript.
