Captain Marvellous JavaScript - A look at how hackers use JS

The modern web would be grossly incomplete without JavaScript.

SnowPack: Building Web applications with Less tooling

Do you think it is complicated to bundle your web application? With Snowpack you can build modern web apps (using React, Vue, etc.) without a bundler (like Webpack, Parcel, Rollup).

Exploring the next gen CSS with Houdini

WebAssembly Everywhere: How WebAssembly is Becoming a Universal Runtime for Untrusted Code

WebAssembly started out as a bytecode format to allow code written in low-level languages to run inside web browsers. However, it is slowly breaking out of the browser to become the tool of choice for any computing task that involves running untrusted code in a safe, portable, and performant way. From serverless computing to desktop applications to blockchain, WebAssembly is finding applications … more

Memory leaks in front-end JavaScript

JavaScript ecosystem has exploded in a short span of time. Libraries has made it so much easier for developers to scaffold a whole web app and extend their app on top of it. JavaScript’s dynamic nature has also given developers a lot of leeway to not care about memory leaks and quickly build a scalable app. But is the app really scalable if it has multiple leaks spread across the codebase?

Getting started with Purescript

Purescript is a Functional programming language with JS runtime and interoperable (using FFI) with JS. Dynamically typed (or, rather, unityped) languages, such as JavaScript or Clojure, do not offer static analysis by design, therefore they cannot offer the same level of confidence in code correctness. At Juspay we use Purescript on a very large scale and it brings the unification in teams with F… more
