- Maintaining Performance - Makes some great points about the ever changing best practices and the pros and cons of using 3rd party services vs rolling your own solutions
- Interesting discussion with Brian Leroux about serverless architectures on the Shop Talk Show podcast - Devops have been a bit reticent to get into serverless, but frontend devs are very bullish on these types of setups, so it's interesting to hear some frontenders talk about the variety of things that are and could be built in this space
- Wikimedia has decided to move ahead adopting Vue.js as their frontend framework - These are the folks behind internet giant Wikipedia, so it's a pretty big deal as far as web development goes, firstly because as great as Wikipedia is, they use quite an antiquated tech stack, so moving their website towards something more modern is going to be interesting to watch, but also because they chose Vue over React with some pretty good reasoning in my opinion
