@tanstack.com router + query + form is a breath of safely typed fresh air, and I love it!
Can’t wait to have more time for my side project. I will definitely play with Start!
Now, back to Dash and its global callback spaghetti mess.

JS dev here learning Python and thinking: so many for loops in lists (similar to arrays) with if statements that could be a single line .filter() method in Javascript.

As many of us people who study or work in tech tried to tell y’all, move fast & break things was always about POWER, not progress.

I'm a frontend specialist learning Python to be able to work with Plotly Dash, which is a Python library that creates data visualization dashboards with React components.
Why not use React directly with an API layer? I’ll never know.

Tech folks say that frontend is easy/useless/easily automated to AI and proceed to create the worst interface with zero usability, and with the shittiest code ever.
“But it was so fast to build!”
Shitty stuff usually is. Take McDonalds and Cup Noodles as an example
(Sorry the rant, but I can’t….)

Just discovered that there’s a 20x engineer: it’s a 10x that uses AI to be even faster/better.
I don’t know if it’s a language barrier, but I struggle a lot to have prompts returning what I want.
Maybe I’m not a 10x engineer 😅

Happy 2025! May this be the year of setting routines and sticking to them. Be content with the everyday life, not just the extraordinary.

Decided to take on a migration project at work: react-router v4 to v7. Had to update React to 18, MUI to 6, and yeah.. I think I’m screwed.
This PR will never be approved in code review. How do folks update their dependencies these days without this nightmare?

Saw a React class component in the wild, with Redux’s HOC and all the shenanigans from 2018.
Let me tell you: components like these are the reason people jumped the functional paradigm/hooks train to never look back.

Finishing another brain melting week. I had to do live coding while sharing my screen in an app I’m not familiar with, writing tRPC which I’m not familiar with.
This is the most “get comfortable with the uncomfortable” experience ever.

Tests running perfectly locally, but broken on CI because some function isn’t mocked correctly…
And this is how I end my second week at my new job.

New handle matching my website domain! I hit some bumps while verifying it in my Astro blog, so I wrote a blog post about it for future reference.

A lot of new things to learn in the new job:
- tRPC (which from my understanding, is React Query with TypeScript steroids)
- Monorepo with 7 different Next.js apps
- i18n (even though it's just one language)
- CapacitorJS because the monorepo is an app (iOS/Android)
My brain is a slush right now.

Nice to see folks from dev twitter starting to use this platform. Ever since the X’s ban in Brazil, this was the thing I missed the most!

I think I'm gonna create a repo on Github: “frontend coding test I’d have passed if I had more than 30 minutes to solve them”.
