At my last company, when we were building a greenfield application, we leveraged this pattern, at a time when GraphQL was not yet available. In my new company, I look at GraphQL and realize that this solves the BFF pattern in a standardized way

I went through the exact same thing with Google. The interview was very impersonal, never going into if I'd be a great culture fit and it was simply on the basis of if I knew how to do this algorithms problem that doesn't show if I'm a good engineer or not. Ended up in a much better company culturally, and I've never looked back

I used to be a big supporter and user of Sublime, using it for my day to day. Unfortunately, even though it still has faster boot time than VSC, the community around VSC is so much richer that it becomes a case of too little too late.

The addition of vulnerability scanning was the only reason our company switched back to npm from yarn. Other than that, yarn offers a great experience

Great job. This is a great resource for a person like myself that is getting into the world of GraphQL

I always say pick the best language for the type of problem that you are trying to solve. If your problem is heavy IO, than I recommend NodeJS, as that's the forte. Instead if the problem is a CPU-bound issue, then NodeJS is not appropriate. Within the NodeJS ecosystem, you can use Typescript, as well as use webpack to have an optimized build. There is always something to learn.

Hi guys!. Wanted to share my experience with using Redis as a JSON store in NodeJS. Wrote about some potential strategies; with advantages and disadvantages, as well as some code to go along with the README.

Any feedback or experience that you want to share when working with Redis are greatly appreciated!

"One of the areas I'm especially proud of in Sublime Text 3 is performance". I totally agree with this statement. Writing software in sublime has certainly made my life easier. Kudos to Jon and team.
