Discarding magic feathers -- Going frameworkless in Scala
Posted on February 25, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
A good few years back, I looked into building a Scala webapp using Java's little-known provided HTTP server rather than one of the many frameworks already out there during my 10% time at Springer Nature. I made a mistake here - to avoid those frameworks I built my own framework to route requests within a webapp. I called it Sommelier, and it is now hidden away in a private github repo as really, we don't need another of those. Maybe we don't need any of them at all. By Jim Kinsey.

Implementing in-app subscriptions in iOS & Android with no backend servers
Posted on February 23, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
More recently I have been experimenting with different monetization strategies for the apps so users can unlock features or just leave a tip.

DevSecOps: Why you should care and how to get started
Posted on February 7, 2022, Level beginner Resource Length long
The increasing popularity of DevOps software development methodologies has led to shorter and more agile life cycles, in which software is released and deployed in minutes or hours rather than the days, weeks, or even months required under traditional practices. However, many development teams still experience delays in getting releases into production due to the security considerations that are traditionally brought to bear at the end of the life cycle. To address this, organizations are more and more frequently adopting a DevSecOps approach. By Katrina Novakovic, Chris Jenkins.

Controlling concurrency in distributed systems using AWS Step Functions
Posted on January 29, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Managing concurrency in distributed systems can be challenging. In a monolithic application, you use familiar concepts such as in-memory locks to avoid overloading a database or prevent overwriting a customer record by two users at the same time. With a distributed system, where your application is dispersed across computing environments without shared memory, these methods are no longer available to you. By James Beswick.
