Custom integration of the mdx compiler to compile and run mdx content as a React components, with full control on the mdx integration and plugins.

What makes a great coding article? How should you structure a tutorial? Start with why, don't make assumptions, ask for feedback early on, cut it short and show me the code.

Some major releases are coming in the next few weeks: local first conference in Berlin, React 19 together with Typescript 5.5, Dart 3.4 with static metaprogamming.

You can build anything with Typescript: create client apps for web, desktop, and mobile, create games, create server apps, scripts, cloud apps, and much more.

Effect allows to build complex production Typescript applications that are composable and type safe. This is my take on why you should take a look at Effect, what are the benefits of Effect, and how you can get started with Effect.

Implementing large scale software projects requires following some core principles: local reasoning, error handling, testability, debugging, observability, state management, and how these all work in practice.

Cross platform development on mobile using Flutter, but also considering React native. Type safety as much as possible with pure functions, pattern matching, effect system. React with nextjs, preact, remix on web.

This is how I implement a web app: local first and PWA (progressive web apps) as architecture, and libraries like effect, XState, tailwindcss to implement the core of the app, state management, and styling.

This is my journey in learning functional programming and its core concepts, using multiple programming languages: from Lisp and Haskell, to object oriented languages like Dart and Kotlin, all the way to Typescript and the web.

Learn many powerful and advanced dart's features required to build an Effect System in dart: type system (Never, void, Null), type inference, FutureOr for synchronous and asynchronous functions.

This is my experience as the creator and maintainer of a popular open source library: how to get started, how to make a successful library, how to maintain it, and what are the results.

Learn what is an Effect system and how Effect systems are the future of programming. Instead of using complex functional programming jargon, effect systems focus on solving real-world problems.

The best way to explore a library is to read code written by its core maintainers. This is how I learn a new library by reading someone else's code: look for patterns, reimplement similar examples, ask for help.

A new paradigm to scale complexity in software applications: use types to define errors and dependencies, and use the compiler to guide the implementation and unlock local reasoning.

The Effect Days: 3 days of conference in Vienna all about Effect and the future of Typescript. This is all that happened, why this is the beginning of a new era for software development, and all the main takeaways from my experience at the conference.

Why should I use Effect? What benefit does Effect provide? What are some real world examples of using Effect? Learn how to use Effect to refactor a real world example from plain Typescript.

Different programming languages shares similar challenges. There are some common solutions to these problems: error handling, dependency injection, logging and observability.

Learn how to implement a state machine using actors in XState v5, how to organize the code for context, input, events, and actions, and how to invoke and use actors in a state machine.

Learn what actors and the actor model are and how to use them for state management. Combine XState and Effect to manage complexity and state in any app, both frontend and backend.

Learn how to implement a custom script with Typescript and publish it as an npx command on npm: write script, package.json configuration, bundle code, release on npm.

This is how I built a minimal static site generator in Typescript using Effect: how a static site generator works, how it's implemented, and how to publish it to npm as an npx command.

Some new features are coming to the dart programming language: static metaprogramming and primary constructors. Learn how macros, static metaprogramming, and primary constructors work, why they matter, and how to use them.

Learn how to create a Flutter app with the most common features: routing, navigation, data models, data storage, dependency injection, error handling, state management, and Flutter widgets.

Cross-platform app development with Flutter and Dart: learn how to setup your project, what packages to choose, and how to use them to implement routing, state management, data storage, and UI.
