We Rewrote Our Angular 18 App in React 20 and Increased Developer Velocity by 40% Last quarter, our engineering team made the bold call to rewrite our 3-year-old Angular 18 production application in React 20. After 6 months of development, we cut over to the new stack with zero downtime, and the results have exceeded our expectations: we’ve measured a 40% increase in developer velocity, alongsid
White labeling is more common than you might think. When developing software, you often need to deploy the same application for multiple clients, each requiring their own customization: unique color palettes, logos, or specific variants for a link. Without a proper strategy, you might be tempted to simply clone the existing repository and implement client-specific changes on demand. However, this
It started at midnight I had 24 hours, a free Replit subscription, and an idea: what if I could build something like Miro — but actually understand every line of code in it? The core problem I had to solve first Multiplayer sync sounds simple until you actually build it. The hard part isn't sending a canvas update — it's figuring out what to send. canvas.on('object:modified', (e) => { socket.emi
FutureMe has 15 million letters in its database. They've been there since 2002. Some of them will be there in 2050. Evengood will have zero. This week I shipped The Quiet Letter — a feature where you write to your future self today, we email it on a date you pick, and we hard-delete the row from our database within 24 hours of sending it. The email is the only artifact. We don't keep a copy. Every
It was around 1am and I had three feeds open. X on my phone, Reddit on one monitor, Hacker News on the other. I was reading about a plane crash, a new AI model, and a meme war about whether oat milk counts as milk. And I realised I had no idea what the internet was actually feeling about any of it. The feeds told me what was happening. They didn't tell me how it felt. That's when the idea hit me.
I write a lot of READMEs. I ship faster than I document. I work with AI agents that write code in seconds and READMEs in minutes, and somewhere between the first commit and the third refactor, the README I wrote on Tuesday stops matching the code I wrote on Friday. The install command says npm start. The package.json defines start:prod. Anyone copying that command would have failed instantly. I'd
TL;DR: ng-prism lets you showcase Angular components by adding a single decorator to the component class itself. No story files, no parallel file tree, no framework mismatch. Just Angular. If you've ever maintained a Storybook setup for an Angular component library, you know the drill: for every component you write, you also write a .stories.ts file. Then you keep both in sync. Then so
