It seems there’s value in trying to understand previously written code and make it more efficient. (Especially utilizing #JavaScript in #ReactJS to break up repetitive code and use logic to handle the components. But sometimes it seems easier to start from scratch, and try to understand the code that way, by completely rewriting it, forcing oneself to think through it again, perhaps in a new way (multiple ways to do same thing). I wonder which approach is better for deeply learning/practicing a programming language, and also which is more common in a typical professional industry (probably the former, but new applications have to be built too — unless they’re always built on top of existing codebases). More updates on these processes to come while continuing to document the journey with JavaScript, #Python, and other languages/technologies such as #Jest, different APIs, and performing CRUD operations for #fullStack projects.

JavaScript is dominating… but no one talks about how hard it actually is. Yesterday I ran a poll asking developers which programming languages they use the most. The result was interesting. About 75% chose JavaScript and TypeScript, while Python and Rust had around 13% each. Not really surprising… but still worth thinking about. I personally use JavaScript and TypeScript a lot, and I also write Python. Each one has its own strengths, but JavaScript really stands out because of how broad it is. Frontend, backend, APIs, scripting… it’s everywhere. At the same time, JavaScript is not the easiest language to fully grasp. It can be unpredictable, and it definitely humbles you as you go deeper. But maybe that’s part of why it’s so powerful. Curious to hear from others, what language do you enjoy working with the most right now? #JavaScript #TypeScript #Python #Backend #WebDevelopment #Programming #DevCommunity #BuildInPublic

Every developer has been here 😅 🫠 📔 ./node_modules : Thousands of files, Massive, Heavy, Untouchable. 📃 ./src : Tiny, Clean, Where the real magic happens. The actual code you write Modern development in one picture. The smallest folder often carries the biggest impact. As developers, we often don't realise , the value isn't in how much code exists, but in what we create with it. A massive ecosystem supports us, but our impact comes from the simplicity and clarity of what we build. Build small. Think big. 🚀 #nodejs #reactjs #python #ts #js #build #webdevelopment #programming #softwareengineering #coding #developerlife #relatable

🚀 Modern Backend Development in 2026: Python 3.14 + Django 6.0 If you are still running older versions of Python or Django, you may be missing several important improvements in performance, scalability, and developer experience. ⚡ Python 3.14 • Faster interpreter execution with further runtime optimizations • Improved debugging and observability for production systems • Better memory management and stability for long-running services • Continued improvements in async and concurrency behavior • Enhanced typing ecosystem for more reliable and maintainable code 🛡 Django 6.0 • A more mature and stable async ecosystem for I/O-heavy applications • ORM query performance improvements and better database efficiency • Expanded async view and middleware support • Improved security defaults and framework hardening • Cleaner integration with modern frontend stacks (React, Tailwind, API-first architectures) I recently started adopting this stack in several backend projects and noticed improvements in performance, maintainability, and architectural flexibility. Technology evolves quickly. What is modern today can become legacy tomorrow. That is why software engineering is not only about writing code — it is about continuously learning and adapting to the ecosystem. Because in tech, the advantage rarely belongs to the strongest developer. It belongs to the fastest learner. #Python #Django #BackendEngineering #SoftwareEngineering #WebDevelopment #SoftwareEngineering #Fastapi

Is JavaScript really an interpreted language? JavaScript is often described as an interpreted language but modern JS engines like V8 actually compile before executing it. To answer this question, I created blog that explains the following: 1) What is Compiler, interpreter and JIT Compiler 2) Understanding the behavior of JavaScript 3) Background of JS Engine 4) How JS engine utilize JIT Compilation Read here 👇 https://lnkd.in/dj4ecJA4 #javascript #webdev #softwareengineering #programming

Programming languages get boxed in way too quickly. Python for AI. JavaScript for web. C# for enterprise. Go for infrastructure. As if the moment you pick a language, you also accept a fixed definition of what you’re allowed to build with it. That has never sat right with me. Because once you spend enough time building real systems, you realize the language is rarely the actual limitation. More often, it comes down to the ecosystem, the tooling, the team’s familiarity with it, how quickly you can move, and whether the thing will still be maintainable when the excitement is gone a year later. I work mainly in C#, and I keep running into the same conclusion. You can build far more with a language than people give it credit for. That includes modern product systems and even agentic AI-style workflows. The more interesting question is not whether a language can do the job. It is whether it helps you build it well.

As backend engineers, we often face the challenge of either spending weeks learning frameworks like React or Angular to demo a service or handing off raw API endpoints to stakeholders who may struggle to utilize them. #Streamlit offers a solution to this dilemma. #Streamlit is a #Python library that enables the creation of functional, reactive frontends using solely Python logic. This approach eliminates the need for any knowledge of #HTML, #CSS, or #JavaScript, streamlining the development process and enhancing collaboration with stakeholders. #streamlit #python #AI #langchain #langgraph

🚀 New Blog Posted... Hello Developers 🖐, We often start learning JavaScript by writing code, but many struggle to truly understand what happens behind the scenes. So I wrote a beginner-friendly article explaining the core building blocks of JavaScript: • Variables • Data Types • Scoping • var, let, and const In this article, I break down these concepts in the simplest way possible with visual explanations and practical examples so beginners can understand how JavaScript actually works under the hood. If you're starting your JavaScript journey or revising fundamentals, this will help. 🗒️Read the full article here 👇 : https://lnkd.in/ge26UnkM Feedback from fellow developers is always welcome. Thanks to my mentors for the community & support. Hitesh Choudhary Anirudh Jwala Akash Kadlag Piyush Garg #chaicode #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #Programming #Coding #FrontendDevelopment #LearnToCode
