In any collaborative project, Git is a powerful tool that enables teams to work together on code without stepping on each other's toes. However, merge conflicts are inevitable when multiple developers are working on the same codebase. While merge conflicts can feel intimidating at first, they are manageable with the right strategies and a calm approach. Here’s how to handle merge conflicts like a pro and keep your team collaboration smooth and efficient. shankar written dialiashw What Is a Me

Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that allows developers to rapidly style their web applications by using pre-defined classes directly in HTML. Unlike traditional CSS frameworks, which rely on components with specific styling rules, Tailwind focuses on providing low-level utility classes that you can combine to build custom designs without writing additional CSS. With Tailwind, you can style your elements directly in your HTML, keeping your styles concise, consistent, and highly cus

When it comes to analyzing JavaScript program errors, ESLint is one of the best linting tools available. ESLint provides checks for a large set of potential errors and style violations. Its pluggable architecture also enables anyone to write their own rules and custom configurations. One of my favorite features is the ability to auto-fix using the --fix flag. Integrating auto-fix provides constant feedback by cleaning up mistakes and keeping code clean before you check it in to a repository. Th

Software engineering is a field that always changes to keep up with innovation and client needs. As developers, we have a difficult job staying up to date with these swift changes. It is imperative that we approach our information sources selectively because it is so easy for anyone to create a blog and publish anything. That is not to argue that material from new bloggers, inexperienced developers, or alternative viewpoints isn't worthwhile. Quite the contrary — such sources can provide origin

One of my main goals, whenever I'm teaching or writing technical content, is to maximize "aha" moments. An "aha" moment is a moment of sudden insight or clarity; when the subject matter suddenly makes sense. We've all experienced them, and the best teachers I know can understand their audience and adapt the lesson to maximize these moments. Throughout the last few years, I've taught React in just about every medium. Throughout that time I've been taking notes on what triggers these "aha" moment

Every day, leading companies are finding new ways to use AI and related technologies to operate more efficiently and serve their customers better.  However, despite AI’s transformative impact, these early adopters have discovered a fundamental truth: humans, with their creativity, ingenuity, and other unique skills, are indispensable to their organizations. No matter how advanced AI becomes, people will remain the core of most companies, and will be vital for harnessing the full value of new te

Let’s face it — core functionality powering React is complicated. Whether you’re trying to understand the reconciliation algorithm, component lifecycle, motivation of Hooks, or the newest holy grail… one thing many of these subjects have in common is a focus on rendering. In this post I detail by example some tools and techniques I’ve found helpful in improving rendering performance. I put together an emoji finder app from Create React App, available on GitHub.
