Learn this before React
The destructuring rest & spread operator promises map and filter methods. The find method returns the first element that satisfies the condition. FindIndex returns the index of that ["jack", "pritom" The spread operator enables us to spread the content of a iterable (i.e. array) into individual elements Spread. In simple terms promises are used to handle asynchronous operations.

JavaScript API Mocking Techniques
API Mocking Mocking is a client-side mocking framework that mocks the API in the browser by using the Pretender library. It has many built-in tools: serializer, route handlers, database, models, fixtures, and factories. It enables emulating dynamic behavior between the front end and back end, rather than mocking the same response over and over again by hitting an endpoint.

GraphQL vs. REST
GraphQL is a protocol to access data. It solves a similar set of problems as REST but comes with a different set of trade-offs. GraphQL places more control over the shape and content of responses in the hands of an API consumer. The benefits of a GraphQL API materialize over a long time period, but building it may require a larger initial investment than building a REST API. It may be unwise to embark on a Graphql.

GraphQL vs REST: putting it to rest
GraphQL allows users to request data from several resources using a single request. Rather than making multiple requests to fetch data, you can use it to make ad-hoc queries to a single endpoint. GraphQL allows client to specify the precise type of data to be received from the server.

Let’s learn, build and sell an API
API is an intermediary between two applications and makes it possible for those two applications to communicate with each other. For example, JokeAPi, The Movie Database, Open Weather API, etc. Let’s build an API service to add, delete, edit and get your daily tasks. We need a database and a server to create anAPI service. We use MongoDB as our database and NodeJs, and ExpressJs for creating a server.

Implementing user authorization in Next.js
NextAuth.js is a full-fledged authentication and authorization solution for Next.js designed to work with any OAuth service. To use them in your project, create a file named.env.local in the root of your project directory. This file will contain all the providers that you want to use in your app. Each provider will be configured using the credentials in order for the app to successfully connect with our OAuth identity provider.

API Security: The Complete Guide
API security is a crucial consideration when developing and designing APIs. As serverless architectures and microservices are getting more popular, most enterprise applications depend on the API. This attack is detected when a malicious attacker changes or tries to change parameters across a series of API calls to request sensitive data that only authorized personnel are allowed to access.

Writing API Design Standards
API Development Standards are a focused collection of imperatives, conventions and guidance. They are intended to improve consistency, stability, generality, predictability and usability of business resource APIs. They may offer best-practice recommendations and provide a basis for quality assessment.

... in JavaScript – the Three Dots Operator in JS
The three dots operator in JavaScript is one of the significant updates that was shipped with ES6. It helps you achieve many things that previously required many lines of code, unfamiliar syntax, and more. We will go through some examples to show possible use cases. We can also concatenate objects similarly to how we did arrays with the spread operator. The rest operator allows you to combine any number of arguments into an array and then do whatever you like. It uses an array to represent an infinite number of options. It is a good representation.

A simple example for NodeJS multiprocessing
The cluster module allows you to easily create a network of processes that all share server ports. While this is perfectly good code, it will run on only 1 core of your most probably multicore environment. So what we can improve is to take advantage of the cluster module and fork our process to increase the software throughput.
