​​Web Components are a set of APIs that allow you to create custom HTML tags and use them alongside standard tags. They provide many advantages such as portability across projects, encapsulation of state, and access to a shadow DOM. Web Components are also functionally independent from frontend frameworks. You can use your components in a React, Angular, Vue, or vanilla project.

​​If you are thinking of building a static site with React and want it to perform as fast as a cheetah, you should consider using GatsbyJS. I decided to try it out and was amazed with how easy it was to setup, deploy, and how fast the site loads now. Gatsby uses the best parts of other front end tools to make the development experience feel like you’re on vacation.

​​A static website contains Web pages with fixed content. Technically, it is a simple list of HTML files, which displays the same information to every visitor. Unlike dynamic websites, they do not require any back-end programming or database. Publishing a static website is easy: the files are uploaded on a simple Web server or storage provider. The two main advantages of static websites are security and speed: there is no database so it can not be hacked and there is no need to render a page for each request, which makes Web browsing faster.

​​Google wants to improve the web experience, fast. Site performance is a core concern for the tech giant, especially since they revealed in early 2017 that the average website load time on mobile was 22 seconds, while also revealing that 53% of users quit a website on mobile if it takes longer than 3 seconds to load.

​​Are you always mystified, like me, whenever you come across words like Buffer, Stream, and binary data in Node.js? Does that feeling make you shrink from understanding them, thinking they are not meant for you but only for Node.js gurus and package developers to understand?

​​Express is a terrific JavaScript framework that serves as the backend for a lot of full stack web applications. Many of us use it day-to-day and are proficient in how to use it but may lack an understanding of how it works. Today, without diving into the Express source code, we’re going to recreate some of the routing functionality to gain a better understanding of the the context in which the framework operates as well as how response and request can be handled.

​​​​​​JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, and is now widely used also outside of the browser. The rise of Node.js in the last few years unlocked back-end development - once the domain of Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, and more traditional server-side languages.

The JavaScript Handbook follows the 80/20 rule: learn 80% of JavaScript in 20% of the time.

​​We all know the stack as well will not stop there. Express will probably also require installation of “body-parser” and “cors”, and possibly sub Express NPM modules. Don’t forget Lodash, Underscore, Moment…and the list goes on and on as there are thousands upon thousands of NPM modules to make use of.
