Coding

• # React

  I own my career to React, so yeah. Unless something major happens I’m loyal. I quite like React server components, and even though I was sceptical at first, I’m happy with the direction React is taking.

• # TypeScript

  I prefer typed languages, and I can’t imagine writing a large JavaScript codebase without it. For all it’s faults, it still blows my mind how much it improves the developer experience.

• # Next.js

  I’m using Next.js for this blog, and I’m relatively happy with it. I've changed my opinion about using Next.js for applications, but I wouldn’t mind using it for content/marketing sites.

• # Tailwind CSS

  I've tried everything and this is the true way for me. I remember the days when I was writing CSS for a large fast-food chain website and it was a nightmare. Just the perfect balance between utility and flexibility.

• # Zustand

  I've been using Zustand for state management in my react projects and I'm really enjoying its simplicity and flexibility. It's a great alternative to more complex state management solutions.

• # Zod

  I use Zod for runtime type validation and schema declaration. It's been a great experience using it with TypeScript, especially for validating API responses and form data.

• # Prisma ORM

  I've been experimenting with Prisma ORM for database management in my projects. It provides a great developer experience with its type-safe database client and schema migrations.

• # Shadcn UI

  I use Shadcn UI for building beautiful and responsive user interfaces. It provides a collection of reusable components that are easy to use and customize.

• # React Hook Form

  I use react-hook-form for managing form state and validation in my React applications. It provides a simple and intuitive API for handling form inputs and validation.
