Created Healthy with Dawn CombsThe Importance of Local Community: Deuteronomy 12-15I'd love to hear from you, text me your thoughts!In today’s world, we’re constantly told to “think globally.” 🌍 Worry about crises everywhere. Spread your attention thin. Feel responsible for people you’ll never meet.But what if that’s not what God designed?📖 In Deuteronomy 14 and 15, we see a different model— One that’s hyper-local. Care for your neighbor. Feed the hungry in your gates. Take care of your land and your people.Even in nature, healing starts close to the roots.In this episo...2025-06-2015 min

Организованное программирование#31 Ключевые тренды 2025: что ждет стейт-менеджмент в будущем? | Артём АрутюнянВ этом выпуске мы с Артёмом Арутюняном погрузились в тему стейт-менеджмента во фронтенде и функционального реактивного программирования.Разобрали ключевые вопросы: — Как современные подходы (например, концепция Local First) помогают решать проблемы синхронизации локального и глобального состояний? — Какие преимущества и ограничения традиционных решений, таких как Redux и MobX, и чем их дополняют новые реактивные примитивы? — Какие технические нюансы влияют на производительность и отказоустойчивость сложных UI-приложений? — Как обеспечить надёжную интеграцию между клиентским состоянием и серверным рендерингом (SSR)? — Какие инструменты и архитектурные решения актуальны для создания масштабируемых систем уже сегодня?В этом выпуске вас ждёт детальный разбор реальных кейсов и технологических подходов, позволяющих совершенствовать управление состоянием в современных веб-приложениях. Получите практические рекомендации и узнайте, какие технологии открывают новые возможности для разработчиков.

Организованное программирование#22 Будущее фронтендовых приложений. От запросов, к движкам синхронизации / Андрей СитникВ этом выпуске мы с Андреем Ситником. обсудили будущее фронтент разработки и большой сдвиг в сторону баз данных на клиенте с автоматической синхронизацией вместо классических апи вызовов. Или короче, поговорили о движках синхронизации. Андрей рассказал про движение Local First, которое предлагает ряд принципов создания веб-приложений, одновременно решающих задачи владения данными и совместной работой. Благодаря движкам синхронизации, Local First приложения получают возможность работать офлайн и хранить свои данные там где нужно, не завязываясь на конкретный, обычно облачный, провайдер. Это позволяет строить более быстрые, безопасные и защищенные в плане владения данными приложения. ✅ Подписывайтесь на канал «Организованное программирование» в Telegram: https://ttttt.me/orgprog– Список подкаст-платформ (Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, Яндекс.Музыка и другие): https://podcast.ru/1734325321– Смотреть на Youtube: https://youtu.be/-57r5AARRgYПолезные ссылки:https://x.com/andrey_sitnikhttps://t.me/sitnikhttps://sitnik.ruhttps://localfirstweb.dev - Local-First Softwarehttps://electric-sql.com - ElectricSQL | Postgres sync enginehttps://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ - Local-first softwarehttps://evilmartians.com/chronicles/recapping-the-first-local-first-conference-in-15-minutes - Recapping the first Local‑First conference in 15 minutes00:00 Введение и анонс00:57 Проблемы текущего фронтенда02:48 Сокращение времени разработки — ключ к успеху стартапов.05:38 Проблемы синхронизации - Недостаток обсуждения архитектуры взаимодействия клиента и сервера.09:04 О том, как создание отдельного сервиса для синхронизации данных улучшает производительность.11:52 Проблемы GraphQL и возвращение к React Query13:44 Преимущества отдельных движков синхронизации15:51 Взаимодействие с фреймворками и стейт-менеджментом17:44 Про Движки синхронизации, которые ускоряют разработку и повышают удобство приложений.22:14 О том, как декларативная работа с данными и инкапсуляция логики на сервере ускоряют разработку.24:07 Про Использование стейт-менеджеров28:42 Критерии качественного Sync engine34:20 Проблемы оптимистичного UI36:55 Преимущества REM, которые помогают быстро создавать прототипы с готовой настройкой прав доступа.43:13 Мультимастер синхронизация баз данных45:59 Проблемы и решения синхронизации47:51 Сложные базы данных требуют специализированных подходов к синхронизации.48:48 Подходы к синхронизации данных52:11 Проблемы и решения в синхронизации данных55:51 Проблемы с хранением больших объемов данных59:08 Синхронизация данных между вкладками01:04:53 Open API помогает создавать единую систему типо2024-12-081h 38
