Paginations 1.0: Time series collections in five minutes
Posted on October 28, 2021, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
As someone who loves to constantly measure myself and everything around me, I was excited to see MongoDB add dedicated time-series collections in MongoDB 5.0. Previously, MongoDB had been great for handling time-series data, but only if you were prepared to write some fairly complicated insert and update code and use a complex schema. In 5.0, all the hard work is done for you, including lots of behind-the-scenes optimization. By John Page.

Hosting SQLite databases on Github Pages
Posted on October 25, 2021, Level beginner Resource Length medium
I was writing a tiny website to display statistics of how much sponsored content a Youtube creator has over time when I noticed that I often write a small tool as a website that queries some data from a database and then displays it in a graph, a table, or similar. But if you want to use a database, you either need to write a backend (which you then need to host and maintain forever) or download the whole dataset into the browser (which is not so great when the dataset is more than 10MB).

Posted on October 21, 2021, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
If you're making an HTTP request in Node.js there's a good chance you'll want to cancel it if it takes too long to receive a response. Or perhaps you have a slightly more complex situation where you're making multiple requests in parallel, and if one request fails you want to cancel all of them. By Simon Plenderleith.

What I wish I knew when learning F#
Posted on October 16, 2021, Level beginner Resource Length medium
I've used F# a lot in the last 3 years and for quite some time I wanted to collect a few good starting points to venture into F# in one place. I also wanted to collect some of those random things that I felt weren't easily available anywhere because they fall through the cracks of the official language reference and library documentation.

How containment in React can improve your code
Posted on September 27, 2021, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Component composition is undoubtedly where React shines. Being able to freely compose larger views from smaller, flexible building blocks is great. But you have to be careful because it's easy to get it wrong (or at least suboptimal). By Tomasz Gil.
