Based on my experiences in various frontend codebases that were written without a frontend expert on the team (including my own old projects 💩), I compiled a list of 9 most common signs of frontend code quality issues that affect users https://angelika.me/2024/04/13/9-signs-your-frontend-code-has-quality-issues/

What's the best tool for end to end/integration testing a non-react app?

I understand Puppeteer and want to automate some clicking etc and ensure I get the right results. It would be nice if it could async some tests.

It seems Jest is the right tool, but everything says it is react based

If you use an app to track "life" things, what apps do you use?

E.g. Goodreads, Strava, Letterboxd

Looking for some examples/alternatives

Hey you, yes you, I've got a question for you…

We thought Google hit rock bottom with .

Its new beta feature on Google Files for called “Smart Search" is the trap door.

This creepy new feature on by default & scans every file on your phone. Why is this bad? Because it could potentially ruin your life. (1/3)

Here is one man’s nightmare: https://nytimes.com/2022/08/21/technology/google-surveillance-toddler-photo.html – don’t let that be you. Turn this feature off if you opted into the beta for Google Files today.

Thanks to BasicCatBR on Twitter for alerting us to this new feature so we could let our community know. (3/3)

Here's how to turn it off:

Hey fellow devs, I'm interested in automatic form testing via end-2-end testing (in combination with #DDEV).

Are there major differences between #cypress and #playwright? Or can I just pick one and I'll be fine? Thx in advance for hints! 👋

Does anyone know of any good free/cheap alternatives to Meetup.com? We do not have the funds in place to cover their monthly fees - but we'd really like to have our online workshops listed on sites/apps where people who want to learn about technology can access them! #Meetup #marketing #publicity #OnlineEvent #PHP

Anyone else see "AI" and just switch off?

If I'm looking for some new software or a SaaS, or I open an article and it mentions AI, I immediately go back or close the tab. I'm just so fed up of it appearing in everything.

I get it has a use (I wouldn't even say it's a purpose) but it seems some products have gone hard on it and I'm just bored of hearing about it now.

@mikestreety You also have to work out what it is they’re calling AI, whether it’s “just statistics” or “stolen work mushed up”, and I haven’t got the time or energy to wade through the buzzword soup.

You may remember a while ago, we asked people to visit a little web app that grabbed their viewport sizes.

We had an idea in mind for a visualisation and article that today, we've just pushed live.

The ideal viewport doesn't exist https://viewports.fyi/
