Amplication·3yNode.js Development: All You Need to Know
Node.js can be considered a future-proof technology that every developer should know. It allows developers to use JavaScript on both the frontend and backend, making it the perfect choice for building scalable, high-performance applications. It was introduced in 2009 and revolutionalized the development world since it allowed developers to run JavaScript outside web browsers.
Amplication·3yWhy We Chose Node.js Over Deno?
Node.js was the de-facto standard for writing server-side JavaScript apps in the 2010s. Ryan Dahl introduced Deno in 2018 in his controversial JSConf EU talk titled "10 Things I Regret About Node.JS" This article gives an overview of the platforms, history, performance, security, and all other critical features.
Amplication·3yWhy Netflix Took a Bet on GraphQL
Netflix migrated its iOS and Android apps to a GraphQL backend in 2022. Netflix's decision to adopt GraphQL was driven by its ambition to create a more flexible, efficient, and developer-friendly API architecture. GraphQL's declarative nature, comprehensive documentation, and robust tooling make it a developer's dream.
The Software House·3yWhy use Node.js? 7 examples of popular Node.js apps
Node.js is one of the biggest sweethearts of backend development in the U.S. It's widely used especially in the start-up kingdom of Silicon Valley. It’s no wonder that over 175,398 web apps (some of them being THE biggest players on the market) already put node.js on their backend.
Amplication·3yUsing Parallel Processing in Node.js and Limitations
Node.js uses a synchronous event loop that takes in code from the call stack and executes it. The event loop delegates all I/O-related operations to a set of threads that perform these operations in parallel. This means that while the event loop executes a CPU-intensive process, applications are blocked from further execution.
The Software House·3yJavaScript dependency injection in Node.js – introduction
JavaScript dependency injection in Node.js is a well-known technique, which can make it much easier to produce independent and scalable modules. It can be used in many programming languages and frameworks, but not as popular as they could be. The service is no longer paired with a repository module but requires to be passed to it.
The Software House·3yNode.js interview questions, tips, trends
Node.js has been one of the most consistently in-demand technologies for the past couple of years. There will be some Node interview questions too, but keep in mind that memorizing the questions and answers alone won’t get you far. The fundamentals are what make the most difference.

Building a Resilient Three-Tier Architecture on AWS with Deploying MERN Stack Application on AWS. The project will use multi-region deployment, one will be the primary region and the second will be for disaster recovery. The architecture of the project is a software architecture pattern that separates an application into three layers.
ProAndroidDev·3yServer-Sent Events in Android (with Node.js)
Server-Sent Events in Android (with Node.js) is a long-lived HTTP connection over which a server can send events to its clients in real-time. SSE is based on an event-driven model, where the server sends events to the client whenever there is new data or information available.
DZone·3yAPI Gateway in Microservices Architecture
API gateway simplifies managing microservices spread over multiple Kubernetes clusters and clouds. API gateway is a server (or L7 proxy) between a client and microservices that acts as a centralized entry point for all clients into the system. It is a reverse proxy that accepts client API calls and forwards them to the appropriate microservice.
Chrome Developers·3yWhat's New in WebGPU (Chrome 115)
Supported WGSL language extensions are automatically enabled, so you don’t need to explicitly request one. The Chromium team is working on adding WebGPU support for Direct3D 11. You can now experiment with it locally by running Chrome on Windows with the command-line flags.
Community Picks·3yRethink Full-Stack Development: Is a Custom Backend the Best Choice?
The conventional approach to developing full-stack applications involves the tedious and time-consuming process of building the entire application from scratch. The alternative to custom-built backend applications are the Headless API solutions. Wix recently released their Headless APIs, enabling developers to implement Wix's robust business solutions using composable APIs and SDK.
Hacker Noon·3yGetting Started with React Server Components: A Step-by-Step Tutorial
React Server Components are a new feature that lets you build apps that span the server and client. They can access data directly from the backend, without sending it to the client. This reduces the network and bundle size, resulting in faster loading and rendering.

High traffic web app optimization - stress testing, refactoring and more. We’ve recently completed the optimization of a high-traffic app and we have achieved a total success with some interesting numbers to be shown. You’re going to learn how the app looked before the optimization effort started and how we measured its performance.
KDnuggets·3yGetting Started with ReactPy
ReactPy gives users a simple, declarative view framework that efficiently scales applications to complex use cases. The interfaces of ReactPy are built using components that offer a similar experience to that found in ReactJS. In this blog post, we will explore ReactPy, learning how to build a simple application and run it both within a web browser and a Jupyter Notebook.
