Native lazy-loading in WEB.

A little TypeScript.

New record holder for hashing speed - algorithm XXH3.

We adopted a new standard for authorization in WEB.

We can already use it. We are waiting for more browsers to catch up.

JS download priority in Chromium based browsers.

The most complete checklist for the security of your server.

Another security officer, but there is more theory here.

How to make a scalable architecture if you're not Google?

The most famous rules, without which development would be impossible.

Let's understand how AI works using a simple example.

A simple task: find a free parking space using machine learning and simple Python code.

How Unity 5 and JavaScript can be used to develop WebGL games.

There is nothing complicated about it.

Development Tools

The hottest reddits on front-end topics in one place.

webhook.site — the service provides you with a webhook and all the statistics about what happens to your hook. Comfortable.

SSH client for reddit

Do you use Reddit? Are you using an ssh client?

Then try: ssh redditbox.us

dbngin.com is an application for MacOS that deploys almost any database locally in just 1 click.

tableplus.io — an application for working with databases.

zeroserver.io - a framework that allows you to do many things in one line.

If you need to do complex calculations on the client side (really complex), then you need − gpu.rocks.

We count not on the CPU but on the GPU.

Open GLTF models, create three-dimensional compositions using WebGL and threejs.org.

testim.io — allows for automatic End-to-end testing.

mailtolink.me — a service for generating pre-filled mailto links.

Design Tools

CheckList.design—Have you forgotten anything in your design?

mobbin.design — a service where screens from applications are collected. You don't have to download a bunch of applications if you want to study the UI of competitors.

getstark.co — plugin for Adobe XD and Sketch to check accessibility

play.typedetail.com — we play with fonts and select the proportions we need.

Keyframes.app/editor/ — editor for CSS animation with a friendly interface. Looks convenient + you can import the code.

A huge selection of tools for the designer.

You can find a lot of interesting things.

populate.design - a huge collection of data for your layouts.

Game DEV

Not long ago there was a Google presentation where they showed cloud gaming and a lot of other interesting things... For example, a system that changes game palettes on the fly.

About viruses on Steam (yes, this is how you can steal things from people in 2019).

The article provides real viruses and an analysis of their operating principle.

Pixel aesthetics

P.s

Netflix released a new experimental series on March 15th. Love, Death + Robots.

If you missed it, definitely run and watch it.

Each episode was made by a separate team.
