Migrated our monolith to microservices. Docker + Kubernetes made the transition smooth. The key was identifying bounded contexts correctly and not making services too granular. Started with 3 services, now at 8. Each one has clear ownership and can be scaled independently. #microservices #docker #devops #architecture

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

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

Finally understood the event loop in JavaScript. It's the key to writing non-blocking code! Created a visualization to explain it to junior devs. Understanding microtasks vs macrotasks changed how I think about async operations. Promises aren't magic anymore - they're just queue management! #javascript #nodejs #async #learning
