For those who could come, I hope you enjoyed Working Software Conference and our session about Microfrontends as a way to strangle an existing Frontend Monolith. For those who could not, here you can find the recording of the event. Slides in the first comment. I want to publicly acknowledge Nunzio Zapulla once again for his tremendous help in reaching this important milestone and for accepting to be my co-star during this talk. And much more. Lastly, I want to use this chance to acknowledge the people at Content Marketplace for their key contribution in bringing this bold vision to life, even when it seemed scary or crazy to do so. Claudio De Meo Marco Bianco Stoyan Georgiev Liza Koromila Stefano Cozzi Highlight from the session: read Luca Mezzalira's book, I mean it! It was the spark that ignited it all two years ago as I was putting the puzzle together https://lnkd.in/e_QUjdpX #softwareengineering #softwaredevelopment #microfrontends #frontend #softwarearchitecture

When, where and how to draw the line? I was recently informed that a Client of ours was in direct contact with one of our Developers. Although this is not uncommon in Fluenty (sometimes it helps to cut out the middle-man), said Client started complaining about the fact that the project was not yet completed, and also had “less pleasant” things to say about our Project Manager. I feel we can all agree that this Client was out of line, but a part of me also feels guilty for not stepping in earlier. My question is simple: How does one approach this Client?

In one of our client projects, our senior developers had a simple looking problem: Making a massive list of 10,000+ items scroll smoothly. The solution though, is not as simple as you initially think, as your page will have an almost destructive performance issues with 1000 items. For this we have to use a concept called virtualized lists ( a pre-existing concept re-introduced by web.dev ), where every item once it enter off screen, gets destroyed. and then on top of that, implement lazy loading for images. 1. Made the frontend User experience the smoothest  2. Virtualized lists increased the web apps lighthouse score to 97 (google defined web rating). 3. Lazy loading the images reduced the bandwidth usage by nearly 75%. 4. Overall, We witnessed a 4x increase in user sessions. If you wish to understand on how you can improve your lagging or buggy frontend, Reach out to us, our pro developers can give you free consultancy over a quick call.

If you missed Anna Fiofilova's talk at Programmable 2024, don't worry—we've got you. 👋 Titled "Over The Wall or Do We Still Need QAs?" Anna recounted how she evolved from a code-focused Developer disdainful of testing into a Cash App Engineering Manager who sees quality as the key to building trusted, human-centric software. 🌟 To really sink your teeth into Anna's story, you definitely won't want to miss our full blog post (link in comments 👇), but this swipe-happy version is a neat little taster. From QA trapped behind a wall of screens 🧱📺 to the boundary-breaking ideas of Lisa, the QA rebel 😎, and the unforgettable "Monica the quality dictator" 👸 who reigned supreme—Anna's journey showcased the transformative power of a quality-driven team. Key takeaway? Quality is everyone's responsibility, not just QA's. 🤝 We do have one question, though... 💭 How can organisations keep pushing to instil this mindset at scale? Any ideas?

The term "bespoke" gets thrown around the industry quite a lot. But what does it actually mean? Here's the definition: "It means custom-made. Made based on the specifications of the person ordering it" Sticking a logo on a white-labelled ready-made SaaS platform isn't "bespoke". In terms of web development, bespoke means: >> Tailored to specific business needs: Custom-built websites that align precisely with your unique business requirements. >> Custom design and functionality: No templates; elements are designed and coded from scratch. >> Highly scalable solutions: Websites built to grow and evolve with your business over time. >> Unique user experience: Crafted to deliver a distinctive, engaging, and intuitive experience for your target audience. >> Seamless integration with existing systems: Designed to work flawlessly with your existing software, databases, and third-party services. >> Enhanced security measures: Incorporating advanced security protocols tailored to your specific business model. >> Optimised performance: Fast, efficient websites built to handle high traffic and complex functionality. >> Fully responsive design: Customised to ensure optimal performance across all devices and screen sizes. >> Unique brand alignment: Reflecting your brand identity with precision through every aspect of the website. >> Personalised user journeys: Tailored pathways designed to meet the unique needs and behaviours of your audience. >> Complete ownership and control: Full rights and ownership of the source code, allowing for unlimited future modifications. >> SEO-friendly architecture: Built with search engine optimisation in mind, ensuring better visibility and ranking potential. >> Flexible and adaptable: Easily modified to accommodate new features, business shifts, or market trends. >> Enhanced competitive edge: A unique, custom-built site that sets your business apart from the competition. >> In-depth consultation process: Collaboration with clients to ensure the final product meets all expectations and objectives. >> Custom e-commerce solutions: Tailored online stores that cater to the specific needs and behaviours of your customers. >> Streamlined workflow integration: Automated processes and features designed to enhance business efficiency. >> Ongoing support and maintenance: Continuous post-launch support to ensure the website remains up-to-date and fully functional. >> Custom API development: Integration with bespoke or third-party APIs to extend functionality and enhance user experience.

We're always on the lookout for real-world case studies showcasing successful tool or technique implementations, and Trivago's latest blog post is a great example. 😀 Written by Armin Arminian and Giuseppe Donati, the post highlights their efforts to streamline GraphQL service testing with the Karate Framework. Facing challenges in maintaining and scaling GraphQL services, Trivago found Karate to be a robust solution. Its intuitive syntax and powerful features allowed their developers to write effective tests quickly, enhancing testing efficiency. By integrating Karate into their pipeline, they achieved improved test coverage and faster feedback loops, resulting in more reliable and scalable GraphQL services. Check out the full case study and stay tuned for the weekly TestGuild news show for more DevSecOps updates! 👇👇👇 https://lnkd.in/ePNf4zWM #GraphQL #GraphQLsevices #softwaretesting #softwaredevelopment #KarateFramework #TestGuildNews

One of our dev teams have recently had the chance to utilise FlutterFlow and found it to be a fantastic tool for rapidly developing and deploying an application.  It allows for a seamless integrations with external API's and has great offline support, such as utilising the device's local storage.  Using FlutterFlow has enabled us to build a Task Management Application for a client in a matter of weeks. The learning curve can be a bit steep for more junior developers, but once you get familiar with it, you can rapidly build amazing UI screens easily by using FlutterFlow's drag-and-drop functionality and block-based code flow.  There is a vast amount of helpful documentation by FlutterFlow online to get you started. https://flutterflow.io

The Software Mansion team has been busy these past few weeks preparing for the RTC.on conference. We're now exactly one month away from the first talk, and we're delighted to announce that the full speaker lineup has been confirmed. We're grateful for all the CFP submissions and guest speakers who have agreed to join us this September in Kraków. This year, we'll feature 20 talks covering a diverse range of topics from the RTC and AI world. If I were to highlight my top 3 most anticipated talks, they would be: • 𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘝𝘓𝘔𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘴𝘬 by Piotr Skalski. I've been following Piotr's work for a while, especially in the sports domain. Over time, I've become a big fan, sensing great passion and eagerness to share knowledge with the community in his work. • 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘸𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘈𝘭𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘢.𝘛𝘝 (𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴) 𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘔𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘹𝘪𝘳 by Zafer Cesur. While I'm admittedly biased as this talk touches on Membrane, a framework we're building, it's not the only reason. I simply love the story of Zafer and Ioannis Rafail Florokapis building https://tv.algora.io/, as it showcases many aspects I value in life. No more spoilers, I'll leave it to Zafer to tell this great story himself. • 𝘞𝘦𝘣𝘙𝘛𝘊 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦: 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘛𝘰 𝘉𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘢 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦 by Perttu Lähteenlahti. It will be fascinating to compare notes, so to speak, between Perttu's experience building Noice and our journey with Fishjam Cloud. Last but not least, tickets are still available with a 30% discount, so don't hesitate to grab them. Links in the comments. We hope to see you in person in a month!
