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
A College Project That Planted a Seed Years ago I was on a university team trying to build a Go AI. We explored monte carlo simulation for lookahead search, basic neural networks for pattern recognition, and expert systems for encoding domain knowledge. None of them worked well enough on their own. Go's branching factor is enormous, so brute-force search fails quickly. Neural networks without th
I have a confession: I used react-i18next for years and genuinely never questioned it. It worked. It was everywhere. Every project I joined during my internships at DNB had it set up. You install it, you configure it, you wrap your app in a provider, and you ship. Done. But then I started building more things on my own, projects where I got to choose the stack from scratch, and I started noticing
If you’ve been building with AI recently, you’ve probably seen these terms everywhere: AI Gateway. And depending on where you read, they either sound like the same thing… or completely different systems. Some vendors use them interchangeably. Others define only one and ignore the rest. And if you try to piece it together yourself, you end up with a vague understanding that doesn’t really help when

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
Building a Full-Stack Habit Tracker with Claude Code - Part 2: Polish, Testing & Deployment Taking the habit tracker from MVP to production-ready with categories, analytics, comprehensive testing, and Vercel deployment In [Part 1], we built a fully functional habit tracker MVP in about 6-8 hours using Claude Code as our AI pair programmer. We had: ✅ Basic CRUD operations for habits ✅ Date-based
