We're all learning how to ship more side projects. If you're "in the bubble" it can feel like everyone is repo-maxxing. Shipping weekly. Spinning up agents to scaffold full apps overnight. New OSS dropped every Friday. The reality I see with most developers is much more normal: They have six or seven repos sitting in various states of half-attention. A side project from last year that still gets a
Hey dev.to community! I just launched CodeLens AI — an AI-powered code review tool that automatically reviews every pull request. Connect your GitHub repo Open a PR AI automatically reviews the code Detailed review comment posted on PR Bugs and logic errors SQL injection and security vulnerabilities Performance issues Code quality improvements Next.js + TypeScript NextAuth + GitHub OAuth Supabase
Why We Open-Sourced Our AI Safety Layer When we built the AI safety layer for As You Wish (AYW), we faced a choice: keep it proprietary or open-source it to help the community.

How I Used GitHub Actions to Auto-Publish to AMO on Every Release Manually uploading extension files to AMO (Mozilla's Add-On Observatory) is tedious. After the fifth time forgetting to increment the version number, I automated it with GitHub Actions. Here's exactly how I set up the pipeline for the Weather & Clock Dashboard extension. Trigger on new GitHub release Validate the manifest version
I've been shipping software internationally for 5 years, and I've seen localization bugs tank launches in ways that make deployment failures look quaint. Currency displays in the wrong locale. Dates that make Japanese users think the app was built in 1970. Phone numbers that break form validation in Brazil. Last week, I decided to actually test TestSprite on a real project instead of adding it to

TestSprite adalah platform testing yang fokus pada quality assurance untuk aplikasi modern. Setelah menggunakan TestSprite dalam satu proyek production-grade di berbagai device dan region, saya ingin share pengalaman mendalam tentang bagaimana tool ini menangani localization dan timezone handling — aspek yang sering diabaikan tapi krusial untuk aplikasi global. TestSprite memungkinkan developer un
