So, you need an estimation to build a mobile or web app?
The answer is not as simple as the request since there are so many things that go into an estimate. Metaphorically speaking, it’s the same as asking a home builder how much it will cost to build a house. Do you want 1 or 2 bedrooms? How many floors? What type of fixtures do you want? What’s the square footage? You get the idea. To really provide a bonafide estimate to build the house, it takes in-depth conversation and exploration.

In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to start using BDD and will use a Pokémon Pokédex search feature as an example. BDD means Behavior-driven Development and it’s a refinement of existing TDD processes. It considers the feature behavior ahead of the development and the test processes. A system can have many behaviors, which are basically how a feature operates input, process and output.

Innovation matters. It is determinant for organizational growth and consequently to the products that we are building.
Having said that, when it comes down to exploring new opportunities that could lead us to innovation, the way we build and tell these stories can lead us to success (or not). But why isn’t that so easy? Because we are programmed with many behavioral mechanisms that prevent us from acting. To briefly illustrate, one of these behavioral mechanisms is the so-called “negativity bias.” Continue Reading
When dealing with heavy workload functionalities that can have a big impact on web application performance, you may face the need of running it asynchronously (scheduled or not). These asynchronous background tasks can not only drastically improve the scalability of the application by moving those highly consuming operations to the background, but also improve the functionality usability. Once spread on different components, each with its own responsibility, your code can even look cleaner, more isolated and can be easier to maintain.

Hello developer, how are you? Has anyone asked how your day has been today? To be a proficient software engineer, we find ourselves in an ocean of skills that are required for the job: each company has its tech stack, its way of working and its culture. Which skills should you focus on? Which ones should you have?

As a Q.A. analyst, I have learned that the integration between the backend API and the frontend can be difficult to test and somewhat overlooked since unit tests and end-to-end tests are more common. With this approach you’ll have not only a broader understanding of the solution compared to unit tests, but also an increase in test speed and stability.

In this article, I’ll focus on showing how to add, edit and remove items in an array causing mutation and non-mutation ways.
One thing we need to keep in mind when writing code avoiding mutation is to return a new reference to the data after the update.
It’s a common approach when working with functional programming and if you want to understand some concepts of functional programming I recommend you read this article I wrote some time ago.

Have you heard about microgrids, virtual power plants, demand response, or distributed generation concepts? Do you know how these issues relate to the technological trends expected for this year? In the era of startups, innovation, and exponential growth, new models are emerging in different markets to address technological trends that are already a reality in many countries. The energy sector has evolved alongside this trend, creating opportunities for the insertion of new business models, such as those involving distributed generation, and increasingly making the market more flexible.

There has been a lot of hype around the functional programming paradigm for some time and there are a lot of great books and articles about it on the internet, but it’s not so easy to find real examples with its application. So have I decided to create a game trying to follow its concepts using Javascript, which is the most popular programming language today. In this post, I will share some of this experience and tell you if it was worth it.
