A collection of my detailed thoughts on software design, architecture, innovative tools, and more, organized for easy exploration.
Explore essential techniques to optimize the frontend rendering process for improved speed and user experience. Learn how to use GPU acceleration, layer promotion, and strategic rendering approaches like CSR, SSR, SSG, and ISR. Understand how to reduce reflows, minimize painting, and enhance performance while balancing resource use for scalable and efficient frontend applications.
Learn how to scale state management in React applications with a focus on performance, maintainability, and memory usage. Understand when to use Context, Zustand, React Query, and Redux, and avoid common pitfalls that lead to unnecessary re-renders and memory leaks.
requestAnimationFrame() is a browser API that schedules animation updates to align with the monitor's refresh cycles. This synchronization prevents dropped frames and stuttering, ensuring a more fluid user experience. Additionally, it optimizes resource usage by pausing animations when the browser tab is inactive, thereby conserving CPU and battery life.
esbuild = super-fast JavaScript/TypeScript compiler and bundler written in Go. It powers Vite's pre-bundling, enables lightning-fast dependency transforms, and inspired the new wave of Rust-based bundlers like Rspack and Turbopack. It's not meant to replace all bundlers — it's meant to make them blazingly fast.
Managing user sessions is critical for secure and seamless application experiences. For Planetaria, we not only focused on creating a futuristic design but also optimized session management to deliver reliability and performance in a mobile-first world.
Data security is crucial for protecting sensitive information and maintaining user trust in mobile applications. Without proper encryption, stored data on Android and iOS devices can be vulnerable to unauthorized access, even with sandboxing. This blog emphasizes the importance of encrypting data and securely managing keys to prevent exploitation. Ensure confidentiality and safeguard user privacy with effective security practices.
@compiled/react is a high-performance CSS-in-JS library that compiles styles at build time, resulting in smaller bundle sizes and faster runtime performance. It offers seamless TypeScript support, better scalability, and superior integration with existing CSS tooling. Compared to styled-components, it provides a more efficient, maintainable solution for large-scale applications.
Preloading in React and React Native enhances user experience by downloading components in the background before they're needed, ensuring instant navigation without delays. By combining lazy loading with a custom preloading utility, you can eliminate fallback UI delays and provide smoother transitions between screens. This approach improves performance and ensures your app feels fast and responsive.
