Becoming a tech lead was the goal from pretty early in my career. I had a clear picture of what the role was. More responsibility, more influence over the work, more of the interesting problems landing on my desk because someone had to figure them out and that someone, finally, would be me. It read like the natural next step. The thing you graduate to once you're good enough. What that picture did
I use AI coding agents every day. I believe they are reshaping how we build software, and I think the teams that adopt them deliberately will outperform those that don't. I am not writing this to warn you away from AI-assisted development. I am writing this because the loudest voices in the AI enthusiasm camp are also the most allergic to discussing what can go wrong. And that worries me more than
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
AI can write code. Good code. Clean code. Fast code. That doesn’t make development trivial. It shifts where the true value lives. When code was slow and expensive, writing it was the work. Decisions developed gradually. Architecture changed over time. Judgment was distributed throughout implementation. When the cost of code drops, that balance flips. The difficult part is no longer creating softwa
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
