My favorite type of tech company is the one making enterprise-level money and basically leaving small/solo developers alone @Cloudflare is a perfect example. I’ve built an entire side project around their ecosystem, from emails to backend/database stuff, and I still haven’t even had to add my card. Even adding video/audio calling to an app can be ridiculously easy and still cost you nothing at small scale. @posthog is another one. I use it across web and mobile projects and I still haven’t paid them $1. More companies need this model: Make serious money from enterprise. Let developers build, experiment and grow for free. Charge us when we actually become expensive 😭 If you know more companies with ridiculously generous free tiers, drop them.

Would love to know how @scrimba evaluates practice solutions currently, have they gone fully AI for that? Just curious.

I’m looking for the right remote role for the next five years. Not because I’ve stopped building independently. Because I want to experience what becomes possible when the range I’ve developed is combined with an ambitious team, global distribution, serious resources, and problems operating at scale. Today, I: • Lead Sails.js, actively maintaining the framework, shaping its direction, and growing the ecosystem around it • Build The Boring JavaScript Stack • Build Slipway, a deployment platform for Sails applications • Run Sailscasts, where I teach developers to build full-stack JavaScript applications • Publish The African Engineer, covering how technology is built across Africa • Build Hagfish, an invoicing product for creators and independent professionals • Consult with companies on engineering, architecture, products, and developer experience • Write, teach, speak, lead, and build in public I have spent years operating across software engineering, open source, infrastructure, education, media, product, community, and business. Now I want to bring that experience into the right global technology company. I’m looking for a role where I can build software, lead technical initiatives, improve developer experience, teach developers, write, speak at conferences, shape products, and help grow an ecosystem around important technology. I do my best work in an environment that is: • Remote and async-first • Low-meeting and high-trust • Flexible rather than rigidly 9-to-5 • Built around deep work and strong written communication • Focused on outcomes, quality, and impact • Compatible with responsible open-source and independent work I don’t want to perform productivity. Give me meaningful problems, clear context, ownership, talented teammates, and the freedom to deliver excellent work. Above all, I want to work on something I’ll be proud to attach my name to. I’m especially interested in Developer Experience, Open Source, AI Developer Platforms, Staff Engineering, Developer Relations Engineering, Developer Education, and Technical Ecosystem roles. If your company needs someone who can build the technology, understand the developer, explain the product, teach the market, and grow the ecosystem around it, let’s talk. Reposts appreciated.

This is generated without a single decorator, with zero doc-blocks and all through inference. We never had an OpenAPI spec generator, because I was never a fan of shallow docs (just print the routes) or write docblocks which very quickly goes out of sync from the actual code. But, not anymore. Building on top of the great work done by @andrejadamcik

Like I will always say - when it comes to these conversations, we have moral responsibilities to keep our voices loud. What happened last week is horrific. Children under the ages of 2 are still kidnapped. It isn't normal. @seyimakinde what is going on?

Just shipped: an OpenAPI generator for @adonisframework . Drop it into your app, get a spec out. Works with your existing routes, validators, models. No annotations needed. Open source, built at @madebyoutloud . github.com/madebyoutloud/ado…

is @WisprFlow lowkey helping me get better at articulating my thoughts? 👀

Being a "backend engineer" is not a skill. It's a department. Moniepoint posted roles, struggled to find qualified Nigerians, and Nigerians on the internet showed their displeasure. But still, nobody touched the actual problem. This thread will make some of you uncomfortable. That's fine. It's only a problem for people who don't read with an open mind.

Also ships with an ace command if you want to manually regenerate spec.
After 3 days of claudemaxxing I've successfully built a home grown openAPI generator for my @adonisframework project that documents itself from the source code and this means 0 decorator usage. It just scans the controller and automatically generates accurate specs.

Not only does it scan the controllers, it also scans the routes, validators and transformers.

This was the first step I took when I built my first backend service in a bid to reduce API response time, ngl it was a bit of an engineering overhead specifically because of my framework of choice and given we didn't have any users at the time for it to become a bottleneck.
Replying to @EOEboh
Your signup endpoint is now only as reliable as your email provider. One slow email request shouldn’t block account creation. Create the user first. Send the email asynchronously with a queue/event.

There really should be a better way to handle openAPI setup in @adonisframework than the current decorator soup pattern that foadonis/openapi has to offer that causes you to maintain a separate type/schema and manually keep it consistent with req/res. @AmanVirk1

Working with @claudeai code is really starting to feel natural like I'm working with a colleague, I don't know how to feel about this man.
