That’s what Donnie D’Amato asks in a recent post: You are asked to build a website but you can use only 4 CSS properties, what are those? This really got the CSS-Tricks team talking. It’s the nerdy version of “if you could only take one album with you on a remote island…” And everyone had…

Building a browser extension is easy, but ensuring that it’s accessible to everyone takes deliberate care and skill. Your extension might fetch data flawlessly and have a beautiful interface, but if screen reader users or keyboard navigators can’t use it, you’ve unintentionally excluded many potential users. In this article, we will audit a Chrome browser…

You can always get a fantastic overview of things in Stephenie Eckles’ article, “Getting Started With CSS Cascade Layers”. But let’s talk about the experience of integrating cascade layers into real-world code, the good, the bad, and the spaghetti. I could have created a sample project for a classic walkthrough, but nah, that’s not how…

After a long, and probably too long, time I finally attended PyData Berlin (2025) again. And it was great! In this post, I will list the talks I attended and share some highlights. Later, I will probably write a little more about more specific things. So, let’s start. By Yaseen Esmaeelpour talk’s page Yaseen presented…

In previous episodes, we explored Docker Compose, Networking, and Swarm. Now it’s time to tackle one of the most important aspects of containerized applications: data persistence. By default, Docker containers are ephemeral: Any data stored inside a container is lost when the container is removed. To preserve data across container restarts or upgrades, we need…

Today, we’re introducing a new integration between GitHub and JFrog that connects your source code and your attested binaries in one secure, traceable workflow. For developers who often find themselves jumping between multiple tools to figure out which commit produced which artifact — or piecing together results from separate security scans for code and binaries…

Every day, millions of developers type a simple, almost reflexive command into their terminals: npm install. It’s the foundational act of modern web development, a gateway to a universe of open-source tools that make building complex applications possible. But this routine command, a gesture of implicit trust in a global community, can sometimes open a…

For founders in 2025, the old debate still matters: should you bootstrap or raise funding? On DEV.to, we often talk about building products, writing code, or scaling side projects. But behind every build, there’s a question of sustainability. How do you pay for growth? How do you avoid running out of runway? Let’s break down…

In this tutorial, we’ll build a Flutter application that demonstrates how to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations using Hive for local data storage. Hive is a lightweight, fast key-value database written in pure Dart. Unlike SQLite, it doesn’t need a heavy SQL engine. It stores data in boxes, which you can think of…

Maintaining up-to-date API documentation is often one of the biggest pain points for developers and teams. Too often, the API spec changes but the docs lag behind, leaving developers with outdated or inconsistent information. This frustrates consumers of your API and increases support overhead. This is where automation comes in. By combining OpenAPI specifications with…
