Implemented OAuth 2.0 with PKCE for our mobile app. Security first! The additional complexity over implicit flow is minimal, but the security benefits are enormous. Also added refresh token rotation for extra protection. Users don't notice, but their accounts are much safer now. #oauth #security #api #authentication

Just set up CI/CD with GitHub Actions. Automated testing and deployment in under 5 minutes! The matrix strategy for testing across Node versions is brilliant. Added Lighthouse CI for performance regression testing. Pull requests now get automatic previews. DevOps happiness! #cicd #devops #automation #githubactions

Accessibility matters! Added ARIA labels and keyboard navigation. Web should be for everyone. Ran our site through screen readers and found so many issues we never noticed. Fixed them all and got positive feedback from users with disabilities. It's not just compliance - it's the right thing to do. #a11y #accessibility #webdev #inclusive

TypeScript strict mode saved us from 3 production bugs this week alone. Type safety is not optional anymore! The initial setup time is worth every minute when you consider the hours saved debugging runtime type errors. Our team's velocity has increased noticeably since adoption. #typescript #javascript #codingtips #development

Database indexing reduced our query time from 2s to 50ms. Always profile before optimizing! Used EXPLAIN ANALYZE to identify the bottleneck - a missing composite index on frequently joined columns. The fix was one line of SQL, but the impact was enormous. Users noticed immediately! #database #performance #backend #sql

CSS Grid + Flexbox = Layout perfection. Finally mastered the combination after years of float-based layouts. The key insight was using Grid for page-level layout and Flexbox for component-level alignment. Created a responsive dashboard that works perfectly from mobile to 4K displays! #css #frontend #webdev #responsive

Hot take: Server-side rendering is making a huge comeback. Next.js 14 with App Router is a game changer for SEO and performance. The new streaming capabilities and partial prerendering are exactly what enterprise applications need. Core Web Vitals have never been better! #nextjs #ssr #webdev #performance #seo

Code review tip: Always check for SQL injection vulnerabilities. Prepared statements are your best friend! Found a raw query in legacy code today that was concatenating user input directly. Could have been catastrophic. Set up automated SAST scanning to prevent this going forward. #security #backend #codingtips #sqlinjection

Vue 3 Composition API is so elegant. Finally, logic can be properly organized and reused! Created a set of composables for our common patterns - useAuth, usePagination, useForm. The team adopted them instantly. Code reuse has improved dramatically across our projects. #vuejs #frontend #javascript #compositionapi

Building a micro-frontend architecture for our enterprise app. Module federation in Webpack 5 is powerful! Each team can now deploy independently without coordinating releases. The initial setup was complex, but the development velocity gains are substantial. Documentation is key! #microfrontend #architecture #webpack #enterprise

Just finished building a responsive dashboard with React and Tailwind CSS. The component architecture makes maintenance so much easier! What I love most is how the utility-first approach keeps the styles co-located with the markup. No more hunting through CSS files! #react #tailwindcss #webdev #frontend

Implemented lazy loading for our image gallery. Page load time dropped from 4s to 0.8s! Used Intersection Observer API combined with blur-up placeholders for a smooth user experience. The trick was finding the right threshold for triggering the load - 200px worked best for us. #performance #webdev #optimization #ux

Spent the weekend refactoring our API from REST to GraphQL. The flexibility in data fetching is incredible! Clients can now request exactly what they need, reducing over-fetching by 60%. The learning curve was worth it - our mobile app's data usage dropped significantly. #graphql #api #backend #optimization

Exploring Astro for static site generation. The partial hydration concept is brilliant! Only JavaScript that's needed gets shipped to the client. Built a marketing site that scores 100 on all Lighthouse metrics. The island architecture is the future of content-heavy sites. #astro #jamstack #frontend #performance
