I just joined DEV to explore the community and get into the habit of writing about what I'm learning. I also set up a blog on Hashnode — figuring out how the two fit together. Here's a quick code block to test formatting: ​ function greet ( name ) { console . log ( `Hello, ${ name } !` ); } greet ( " DEV " ); ​ ``` More to come as I find my way around 👋

Hi everybody. We have created this app around two months and this is third version with fixed bugs. Now it is amazing app that synchronization your tasks throughs iPhone iPad Mac via iCloud with no Sign In! And in pocket you will already have a useful notes. It was a huge code work. Hours and hours. Such a pleasure. What I want to note here for you fellas, we were going from these scheme: What's really happening The self-overwrite loop User edits subtask title ↓ onChange fires → scheduleSave() → debounce 1s ↓ ...debounce fires → DataManager.save() writes todos.json to iCloud ↓ NSMetadataQuery detects file change on disk ↓ ↑ └── todosChanged() ───────┘ ↓ taskManager.loadTodos() ↓ self.todos = loadedTodos ← 💥 replaces entire array mid-edit The core problem is that NSMetadataQuery watches the file at the OS level. It has no concept of who made the change — your own app writing the file looks identical to another device syncing a change over iCloud. So every save you make triggers a reload that cancels whatever the user is currently doing. Why subtask titles are worst affected A TextField bound to $subtask.title is live — it reflects the array value character by character. The moment self.todos = loadedTodos runs, SwiftUI throws away the in-memory array and rebuilds from the freshly decoded JSON. If the save hasn't happened yet (debounce still counting down), the loaded file has the old title, and the field visually snaps back. Progress sliders have the same issue but it's less noticeable because a slider value is a Double — the snap-back is a jump rather than disappearing characters. Why it only shows up on real devices The simulator runs everything on the same Mac so iCloud writes are near-instant and the race window is tiny. On a real device the file system is slower and iCloud sync adds latency, making the timing gap between "user is editing" and "reload fires" much more visible. The three fixes needed Fix 1 — Ignore self-triggered reloads in DataManager Track a isS

Since the early days of GenAI, when ChatGPT launched in late 2022, we began using prompt engineering to direct chatbots (and later LLMs) with human language instructions to provide us answers to questions or take actions (in a high-level…) In 2025, companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic began releasing a new agentic concept called “AI Agent”, an autonomous system that uses an AI model as its "brain" to perceive an environment, make independent decisions, and execute multi-step tasks using digital tools. Unlike passive chatbots that just answer questions, an agent can plan its own workflow, run commands, and browse the web to achieve a specific goal without constant human supervision. In this blog post, I will explain the concept of Context-as-Code and share some coding examples. Introducing Context-as-Code Traditional prompting is a one-way street. You type out your instructions, send them off, and that text never changes. AI agents operate completely differently. Because they work on their own, every action they take creates a mountain of new data. Every time an agent opens a file, checks an error, or runs a tool, it adds more information to the pile, which quickly overwhelms a standard chat screen. Context-as-Code treats the agent like a stateless compute engine. Instead of a massive text prompt, we use version-controlled files ( CLAUDE.md , AGENTS.md ) to establish structural boundaries, separating the permanent project rules from the temporary, dynamic session memory. Context-as-Code transforms loose AI prompts into version-controlled engineering assets by using structured Markdown files to establish permanent, auditable boundaries directly within a project repository. The Discovery Stage (Onboarding the Agent) Before an agent writes a single line of code, it must parse the overall project layout. These files act as the "map" for an incoming AI. llms.txt Serves as a lightweight text directory mapped out in Markdown format. Placed at the root of a project or webs

Co to jest WCAG 2.1? WCAG 2.1 ( Web Content Accessibility Guidelines ) to międzynarodowy standard techniczny określający, jak tworzyć strony www i aplikacje mobilne, aby były dostępne dla osób z niepełnosprawnościami (wzroku, słuchu, ruchu, poznawczymi). Wersja 2.1 rozszerza wcześniejsze zasady o wytyczne dla urządzeń mobilnych oraz osób słabowidzących. Struktura WCAG 2.1 i poziomy zgodności Standard opiera się na 4 głównych zasadach. Dzielą się one na wytyczne, do których przypisane są konkretne kryteria sukcesu wdrażane na trzech poziomach: Poziom A: Absolutne minimum. Bez niego strona jest całkowicie niefunkcjonalna dla wielu użytkowników. Poziom AA: Standard rynkowy i prawny. Wymagany przez polskie i europejskie przepisy dla sektora publicznego i biznesu. Poziom AAA: Najwyższy stopień dostępności, trudny do wdrożenia w całym serwisie. Zasady POUR – Fundamenty WCAG 2.1 Wszystkie wytyczne WCAG 2.1 opierają się na czterech głównych zasadach tworzących akronim POUR : P erceivable ( Postrzegalność ) - Treść musi być dostarczana w sposób czytelny dla zmysłów użytkownika (wzroku, słuchu). O perable ( Funkcjonalność ) - Interfejs i nawigacja muszą być możliwe do obsługi za pomocą różnych urządzeń (np. samej klawiatury). U nderstandable ( Zrozumiałość ) - Informacje oraz obsługa strony muszą być jasne, logiczne i przewidywalne. R obust ( Solidność ) - Kod strony musi być poprawny i kompatybilny z obecnymi oraz przyszłymi technologiami (przeglądarki, czytniki ekranu). Kto musi spełniać standardy WCAG? Dostępność cyfrowa to już od dawna nie tylko "dobra praktyka", ale twardy wymóg prawny, który stale się rozszerza: Sektor publiczny (Obecnie): W Polsce urzędy państwowe i samorządowe, szkoły, uczelnie, szpitale oraz spółki skarbu państwa mają bezwzględny obowiązek spełniania standardu WCAG 2.1 na poziomie AA. Wynika to wprost z Ustawy z dnia 4 kwietnia 2019 r. o dostępności cyfrowej . Za brak zgodności grożą kary finansowe. Sektor prywatny i biznes: Na mocy Europejskiego Akt

I Built My First Token on Solana — Here's What Actually Surprised Me This week I went from zero tokens to minting, transferring, charging fees, and locking tokens so they can never move. Here's what stuck with me. Tokens don't live in your wallet Coming from Web2, I assumed tokens would just... show up in your account. Nope. On Solana, every wallet needs a separate token account for each token it holds. One mint, one folder. It felt weird at first. Now it makes sense. You can charge fees without writing a single backend The Token Extensions Program has a built-in transfer fee. One flag at mint creation time: spl-token create-token \ --program-id TokenzQdBNbLqP5VEhdkAS6EPFLC1PHnBqCXEpPxuEb \ --transfer-fee-basis-points 100 That's a 1% fee on every transfer, enforced by the blockchain. No middleware. No payment processor. No way to bypass it. You can make a token that literally cannot be transferred spl-token create-token \ --program-id TokenzQdBNbLqP5VEhdkAS6EPFLC1PHnBqCXEpPxuEb \ --enable-non-transferable I minted 10, tried to send 5, and watched the transaction get rejected. Not by my code — by the program itself. Perfect for credentials, badges, or certificates that should belong to one person forever. The biggest shift from Web2: these rules are set at creation and are permanent. You can't add a transfer fee to an existing token. You can't make a transferable token non-transferable later. It forces you to think about token design upfront, which is honestly a good constraint. solana #blockchain #webdev #beginners #100DaysOfSolana

I won't name names because I got in trouble for that last post but I interviewed with the biggest agency I've ever gotten a call back from. They are 150+ employees, at least one major national corporation as a client. You would think that because they are so high and mighty they have their s*** together but honestly no. The first interview was with the "big boss" the digital director. The second interview was actually 4 separate teams calls scheduled back to back with a total of 9 people. The director loved me and told me I would be moving on. He said my second call would be with three people which is hilarious because he wasn't even close to correct. My second interview was chaos. First call ended up being a different group of project managers than was listed, and they just hammered me with hypothetical situations of conflict the entire time. All rain clouds, no sun. Second call was two developers who didn't seem that invested in talking to me. They mainly just said that works comes in from many different places and you can be expected to work on a bunch of things while managing a bunch of people AND be suddenly put in front of a client at any point. My third call was hilarious because the top senior dev and the top senior designer in the company on this call loved me. We clicked on everything - our stance on AI, our views on WordPress and PHP in general, our approach to projects. My fourth call was back to doom and gloom - more managers and all just hypothetical situations about conflict and everything going wrong. The people on call four were telling ME that a person from call two has a "different idea of what finished means" and were basically talking s*** on this person who is probably their smartest back end developer. During all of this, the HR person had no idea who I was the entire time. I am interviewing virtually and would have to relocate and she sent me multiple emails about my "In Person Interview". My rejection email was actually the same email sent t

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday creating a "voluntary framework" for AI companies to share their frontier models with the federal government before they're released "to promote secure innovation and strengthen the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure." The order says the US AI industry has succeeded in part "because we refuse to stifle this […]
