Rendering Spectrum
25.11.2020
Here are the big categories of rendering websites:
Client: ship a <div id="root"></div> and let a JavaScript template render all of it.
Static: pre-render all the HTML.
Server: let a live server process requests and generate the HTML response.
They are not mutually exclusive....

Kdo v 80. letech vyrůstal na ZX Spectru nebo jeho českém klonu Didaktiku M, ten by měl zbystřit. Na Kickstarteru si mohou objednat ZX Spectrum Next – Issue 2.

2020 Stack
13.2.2020
In an article with the most clickbaity article ever, Joe Honton does a nice job of talking about the evolving landscape of web development. "Full-stack" perhaps had its day as a useful term, but since front-end development touches so many parts of the stack now, it's not a particularly useful term....
Browser Version Release Spectrum
6.2.2020
Whenever a browser upgrades versions, it's a little marketing event, and rightly so. Looks like for Firefox it's about once a month, Chrome is ~6 weeks, and Safari is once a year.
Chrome 80 just dropped, as they say, and we get a video and blog post. What strikes me about releases like this these...
6 High Interest-Paying Options for Crypto Lenders
10.1.2020
As anyone who has ever sought to lend crypto will attest, significant variance exists in the APR offered to lenders. Indeed, the spectrum can swing from 1% to 8% – even when it’s the same asset being loaned across platforms such as Coinbase, Poloniex, Compound and Dharma. As...
The Best Cocktail in Town
18.11.2019
I admit I've held in a lot of pent-up frustration about the direction web development has taken the past few years. There is the complexity. It requires a steep learning curve. It focuses more on more configuration than it does development.
That's not exactly great news for folks like me...

JAMstack Tools and The Spectrum of Classification
17.10.2019
With the wonderful world of JAMstack getting big, all the categories of services and tools that help it along are as important as ever. There are static site generators, headless CMSs, and static file hosts.
I think those classifications are handy, and help conversations along. But there is a point...
Branching Out from the Great Divide
2.8.2019
I like the term Front-End Developer. It's encapsulates the nature of your job if your concerns are:
Building UIs for web browsers
The spectrum of devices and platforms those web browsers run on
The people who use those web browsers and related assistive technology
The breadth of knowledge...
The Client/Server Rendering Spectrum
6.3.2019
I've definitely been guilty of thinking about rendering on the web as a two-horse race. There is Server-Side Rendering (SSR, like this WordPress site is doing) and Client-Side Rendering (CSR, like a typical React app). Both are full of advantages and disadvantages. But, of course, the conversation...
