Reminder that I’m available to hire for casual #Ruby #Rails #DeveloperExperience things like improving tests, dependency upgrades, and, my favourite, writing code style rules!

It sounds fairly niche, but hey, I know what I like and what I’m best at!

"Too much reliance on AI may be 'a bit of an impending disaster,' Jackson adds, because 'not only will we have masses of broken code, full of security vulnerabilities, but we'll have a new generation of programmers incapable of dealing with those vulnerabilities.'"

React-like functional webcomponents, but with vanilla HTML, JS and CSS

Introducing Dim – a new #Framework that brings #ReactJS-like functional #JSX-syntax with #VanillaJS. Check it out here:
Project: https://github.com/positive-intentions/dim
Website: https://dim.positive-intentions.com

My journey with #WebComponents started with Lit, and while I appreciated its native browser support (less #Tooling!), coming from #ReactJS, the class components felt like a step backward. The #FunctionalProgramming approach in React significantly improved my #DeveloperExperience and debugging flow.

So, I set out to build a thin, functional wrapper around #Lit, and Dim is the result! It's a #ProofOfConcept right now, with "main" #Hooks similar to React, plus some custom ones like useStore for #EncryptionAtRest. (Note: #StateManagement for encryption-at-rest is still unstable and currently uses a hardcoded password while I explore #Passwordless options like #WebAuthn/#Passkeys).

You can dive deeper into the #Documentation and see how it works here:
Dim Docs: https://positive-intentions.com/docs/category/dim

This #OpenSource project is still in its early stages and very #Unstable, so expect #BreakingChanges. I've already received valuable #Feedback on some functions regarding #Security, and I'm actively investigating those. I'm genuinely open to all feedback as I continue to develop it!

Happy to share the first release of PlanAI Editor - a new visual tool for the PlanAI framework!

PlanAI Editor provides a graphical interface to visually build, manage, and execute complex AI workflows. Drag & drop nodes, configure tasks (compute & LLM), export to runnable Python code, and even import existing PlanAI modules.

Explore the project: https://github.com/provos/planaieditor/ (or just run it with pip install planaieditor && planaieditor)

Request for help: I would like to integrate Monaco Editor (used here) with a Python LSP for better code intelligence. I tried and miserably failed. If you've tackled this before, I would definitely appreciate help with this!

Tired of #Linux desktop maintenance? @jorge is bringing cloud native reliability (+ Syft SBOMs!) to the dev desktop with Universal Blue. Chatting with @popey about it on May 1st.

#DeveloperExperience

I had a great time presenting with @kevindubois at #KubeCon about Kubernetes Native Application Development. You can now watch the recording of our session, where we talk about developer experience and inner dev loop with examples in Java and Go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07RnkzSc6Jg

Yes, being technical I should know what "Reverse MX Lookup" means. But it also takes 30 characters and little effort for you to make it so much clearer to me. it

Last week was my first time doing a Keynote, and also my first time speaking in almost two years! And it was a special day, since I brought one of my daughters for the first time . What a cool day. We talked about #developerexperience, obviously!

Just wrote about API versioning strategies for your developer platform! From Semantic Versioning to different implementation approaches (URI, header-based, and query parameters), I break down the pros and cons of each method based on real-world experience.

Hi!

I'm Adrian, a FullStack #Developer looking for a job either in #Québec (or from it if you allow for remote work), with a permanent and open visa

I have experience building and maintaining web apps and APIs, designing systems, doing #DevOps and a bit of #BigData, #MachineLearning and #IoT

I'm experienced using #Elixir, #Phoenix, #LiveView, #NodeJS, #TypeScript, #Fastify, #Express and #Python ; and on the DevOps side in CI/CD pipelines (either #GithubActions and Gitlab CI/CD), #Docker and a bit of #Kubernetes

I was tasked with a lot of the #innovation happening in my previous company, researching tools, librairies, patterns or general technologies either for our own #DeveloperExperience or for our products

I also wrote a lot of technical and non technical documentation and internal presentations, and even participated in a few meetups. You can read some of my writing on my blog: https://blog.adrianc.eu

You might also have seen me on a few Elixir-related Discord servers, or even Bluesky (@adrianc.eu) and Twitter ; either sharing tech news, helping people, reading in book clubs or just chatting

I’m open to full-time right now, contracting work can be discussed.

I'm looking for any developer position, not only #ElixirLang, even though it represents most of my experience. And if the technology you're using isn't on my resume, give me a chance! I'm a fast learner and I might anyway have studied it in class :P

DM me for more info, like github link, my resume or anything :)

Boosts, responses and DM welcome, of course!

A quick demonstration of using the State: Overview page in Kitten’s¹ settings while developing to keep an eye on your event and event listener counts to avoid memory leaks.

Notice how the events and listeners counts change as I navigate between the People and Settings pages in my Place² node and that they are consistent. If they were rising as I navigated back and forth I’d know I had a memory leak somewhere.

If you use Kitten’s built-in features (e.g., the `addEventHandler()` method on your `kitten.Component` subclasses, Kitten will handle adding and removing listeners for you automatically during your component’s lifecycle. You can also do so manually in your component’s automatically-called `onConnect()` and `onDisconnect()` event handlers.

This view is useful during development to ensure you don’t have any memory leaks as pages are loaded and unloaded.

"A quick start guide offers concise step-by-step instructions to help users quickly get started with a product, service, or tool. In the context of API documentation, a quick start guide covers the minimal steps required for developers to make their first API call successfully. It typically provides steps such as how to create an account, where to locate API keys or credentials, how to authenticate, example code to make a basic API call, a way to display the response, and troubleshooting tips. The goal is to deliver a quick win to developers and provide a foundation to integrate with your API."

"While each component — API design, QA, and DE — plays a crucial role, their collective impact is far greater when seamlessly integrated. Siloed processes lead to fragmented experiences, but unified workflows foster consistency and drive better outcomes.

Organizations that bridge the gaps between API development, testing, and digital experience monitoring are better positioned to deliver products that not only function but delight users. By focusing on alignment across these domains, businesses create scalable, resilient digital ecosystems that adapt to evolving customer needs.

I’ve seen this borne out by the highest-performing technical teams I’ve worked with over the years. The best teams inevitably have support from the top-down, executives and management who are tech-savvy and truly serious about making their organization a market leader. Without that kind of influential internal support, software teams are often squeezed and forced to try to do more with less, which is almost always a recipe for poor customer experience."
