Tactical architectural guides, performance deep-dives, and real-world engineering blueprints from shipping production mobile apps, SaaS, and AI systems.
Hardening production backends against sophisticated automated scraping and credential stuffing: token binding with DPoP, mTLS service meshes, and Redis sliding windows.
The reality behind the micro-frontend hype: bundle size penalties, CSS pollution, shared dependency hell, and why high-performing teams are returning to modular monoliths.
Pushing the TypeScript compiler to its limits: conditional types, template literal pattern matching, recursive mapped types, and zero-runtime type guards.
The architectural blueprint for processing massive telemetry: partitioned Kafka consumer groups, ClickHouse MergeTree tables, and materialized rollups.
