As part of my journey learning Rust and diving deeper into linear algebra, I've started working on implementing a linear algebra library for the 42 School curriculum. The project, called "matrix", aims to implement fundamental vector and matrix operations from scratch.
Want to start investing but feel overwhelmed by complex financial concepts? This guide transforms investing from a mathematical puzzle into a practical journey of self-discovery and wealth building. Written for real people who prioritize understanding over technical expertise, this guide will help you develop a personalized approach to investing that fits your life.
I’d like to take this opportunity to share my personal journey with the Web Summit, as it has been a key element in my development, both professionally and personally, over the past seven years.
The following are notes from the Frontend Masters - Rust for TypeScript Developers course by ThePrimeagen. I’ve adapted key ideas and added insights from my own experience.
This post covers the basics of Rust from a TypeScript developer’s perspective, including common Rust constructs, memory concepts, and practical tips for building efficient applications.
The following are notes from the Frontend Masters - Blazingly Fast JavaScript course by the great ThePrimeagen. I've also included my own personal insights and discoveries from research and practical experience.
In the second part, we dive into specific strategies and optimizations.

In the first part, we cover how to measure performance issues.
Creating interactive and customizable UI components is an essential part of frontend development. One of the popular libraries for drag-and-drop functionality is Sortable.js, which provides a robust way to create sortable, draggable lists.
In this post, I’ll walk you through creating a custom Vue 3 wrapper for Sortable.js, exploring how it works, and why I chose to build my own component rather than using an existing wrapper.
Implementing a migration framework in a Node.js backend can be essential, particularly when you’re working with a backend that doesn’t already include a migration system from an existing web framework.
This guide demonstrates how to set up a migration framework in Node.js, even for NoSQL databases, using node-migrate, an agnostic library that can help ensure data consistency and handle evolving data structures. This framework supports migrations, rollbacks, and schema versioning, offering flexibility for environments that use NoSQL data stores.
In my previous article, "Why I Love Frontend Masters", I created a component to display course recommendations in an enriched card format. To make this reusable and visually appealing, I designed a Bookmark component that fetches and displays metadata, like the title, description, and image, for each recommended course.
This article explains how this component works, from setting up a CSV data source to implementing a VitePress data loader that collects metadata during the build step.
Frontend Masters (FEM) has been a go-to platform in my learning journey ever since I found out about it from the Web Summit goodies and the GitHub Student Developer Pack. FEM’s expertly curated courses bring high-quality learning experiences that are dense, practical, and insightful.
This article explores why I am committed to using FEM to refine my skills across various domains, from Vue.js to Rust, and lists some favorite courses for future growth.
When I started my 42 School internship at Keyrock, it marked a unique integration of academic requirements with my ongoing professional work.
As part of campus 19, students must complete a six-month internship. Given my established position at Keyrock and with the help of both parties, I worked out a plan that enabled me to transform my existing work into a structured project for academic credit.
This was a rare opportunity to grow within my current role while also fulfilling a critical milestone at school.
As I continue to explore and deepen my understanding of modern web development, one technology that has particularly captured my interest is gRPC. It’s a high-performance, open-source framework developed by Google, designed to simplify and optimize the way our distributed systems communicate.
Recently I have become more and more curious about thinking like a computer scientist. Thinking about things in high level concepts and patterns allows to grasp the birds eye view of a problem and apply the same reasoning to a wide variety of circumstances.
I have also discovered people like Bjarne Stroustrup and others and along the lines of things they say includes certain must haves of a "card carrying" Software Engineer.
FactoryBot is an indispensable gem in the Ruby on Rails testing ecosystem, streamlining the creation of test data. With its powerful and flexible DSL (Domain Specific Language), you can generate complex objects quickly and efficiently. In this post, we’ll walk through best practices for setting up and using FactoryBot in your test suite, complete with practical examples and useful tips.
Testing your code effectively is crucial to maintaining the stability and reliability of your software. One of the most popular tools for writing tests in Ruby is RSpec. This post provides a step-by-step guide on how to write a well-structured spec, complete with annotated code snippets and detailed explanations.
