A guide to React functional components with TypeScript

This article explores various ways of typing React functional components with TypeScript, starting from basic examples and moving on to more sophisticated use cases. Read the article to discover examples of typing components, including using generic types along with dependency injection. TypeScript is a statically typed superset of JavaScript that adds a powerful type system to the language, enabling developers to catch type-related errors at compile time and enhance code quality. It has become a popular tool among frontend developers and for good reason.

Redux and NgRx forms for optimizing form state management

Have you ever wondered if keeping the form state in Redux makes any sense? In programming, it is often said that the main questions can be answered with the famous phrase, "it depends." Based on my experience, I would agree: the answer truly depends on the specific situation. However, I would like to present and describe certain cases in which it is worth implementing the form state with NgRx forms. Additionally, I will highlight cases that are not worth implementing and provide a bonus solution, though a highly adverse one.

What is micro-frontend architecture? A comprehensive overview

Modern customers have more requirements for a web app than ever before. With the wide choice of mobile and web applications that exists today, it is not enough for an application to simply fulfill its functions as advertised. It also has to be highly available, scalable, and fast, and updates and new features have to come out regularly, and without a hitch. For quite some time already, creating a successful modern web application has meant overcoming the limitations of a monolithic backend. One of the most popular approaches for that is using microservices for your backend development.

Projects in Remix: best practices and lessons learned

Remix is a popular React framework, often used for its ease and speed of development for web applications. However, just like any technology, it has its shortcomings. They are not visible at first sight - you might come across them only once you’ve started a project using this technology. In this article, an experienced developer shares his mistakes to avoid and best practices to follow while working on web applications in Remix. Remix is a React-based frontend framework curated by React ecosystem veterans.

Navigating the module maze: history of JavaScript module systems

JavaScript was designed to handle uncomplicated scripting tasks that we know from everyday life - handling events, updating content, etc. However, nowadays we write huge and complex apps in JS. This distinction between initial design and current usage is a root cause of a lot of frustration in the JS community. Let’s look at one of these causes of frustration and confusion: modules. Modules were one of those topics which I've never felt like I fully grasped. I knew about ESM and CJS, the differences between them, and some history.

CSS vs. SCSS variables — main differences and use cases

This isn't going to be an article about the latest hot new feature. Both CSS and SCSS variables have been around for a long time. SCSS introduced variables in version 2.0 of SASS, released in 2010, and in CSS you’ve been able to use them since CSS3, all the way back in 1999. That being said, these are still powerful tools that can be used to complement each other. Let's talk about the similarities, differences and possible use cases. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. It is a scripting language used to design and style web pages.
