I learned vim a while ago but really didn’t use it for main projects or daily work. Lately I decided to rebuild my neovim config from scratch and really enjoyed setting up and using all the parts. It inspired me to setup similar configurations in other modern editors. While looking around the internet for similar setups, I found that zed is a very attractive choice for a good combination of vim and modern IDE features....
Mock Service Worker (MSW) is a library that helps you mock HTTP requests in your tests. We can use it to define request handlers to respond different mock data mainly for testing. Let’s see how to use MSW in browser environment.

TypeScript has gained popularity for it’s ability to add type system to Javascript. Typescript code will be transpiled to Javascript code which can be run in any browser. Few things I like about TypeScript are Static Typing: TypeScript provides static typing which helps in catching errors at compile time. Strong Tooling: TypeScript has strong tooling support with features like code completion, refactoring, etc. Community: TypeScript has a large and active community that provides support, libraries, and tools....
Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. It provides a way to discover services and manage configurations in a distributed system. Vault is a service that help us to manage secrets and protect sensitive data.

Logging is an essential part of any system. It helps us to debug and monitor the system. Log files are a common way to store logs generated by a system or application. When there are a lot of logs generated by the system, it can consume a lot of disk space. To manage the log files, we can use the logrotate utility in Linux. Log rotate configuration Setting up log rotate to manage logs is simple....
Let’s see how we can share files between two cloud storage solutions - SharePoint and Azure Blob Storage using Python. We will be simply copying all the files from a sharepoint site to an Azure Blob Storage container. Sharepoint sites will have a drive associated with it and we can access the files in the drive using the Graph API. We will be using the requests library to interact with the Graph API....
C is an amazing low-level programming language that has stood the test of time. It was developed by Dennis Ritchie in the early 1970s at Bell Labs and has since become one of the most widely used programming languages. C is known for its efficiency, flexibility, and portability, making it an ideal choice for system programming, embedded systems, and low-level programming. Few things I like about C are The ability to directly manipulate memory and hardware....
Golang has good concurrency support using goroutines. Goroutines are lightweight threads managed by the Go runtime. Goroutines are multiplexed to fewer OS threads. Goroutines are non-blocking, and they are not scheduled by the OS. The Go runtime schedules the goroutines. The scheduler uses a technique called M:N scheduling. M goroutines are multiplexed to N OS threads. The scheduler schedules the goroutines to the OS threads. The scheduler uses a technique called work-stealing to schedule the goroutines...
