Top 10 frontend frameworks for software development

Frontend frameworks are a huge advantage while developing a website or an app. They are structures that will help you create an outstanding user experience, satisfy your clients and boost your business. Frameworks provide templates to interact with and are compatible with various libraries, which results in boosting your performance and, at the same time, reducing the amount of code required. However, with so many options to choose from it is easy to get overwhelmed. In this article we will present the top 10 frontend frameworks and their main features to help you choose the perfect one for your project.

Axios vs. Fetch API — which is better for HTTP requests?

Whether making a network request for cat photos or network latency data, we need a tool that allows us to perform such operations. Retrieving or modifying API data from a server is a vital part of most web applications. Use cases include: loading user information, receiving updates from the server,and many, many more. In this article, we'll compare two of the most widely-used options for making HTTP requests - Axios and Fetch. If you've worked with JavaScript lately, there's a good chance you worked with Axios.

Big data. What is it and why is it so important?

Data analytics is a concept that has been around for decades. Bankers and traders of the past used handwritten spreadsheets to analyze client behavior and predict market trends. But as the years have passed, technology development has provided us with a more thorough and efficient take on data analytics. We’ve come to the age of big data, which has become one of the most significant issues for businesses of all kinds. But why is it so important? Read on to find out why you should care about big data analytics.

Dealing with private repositories, Go modules, Docker and CircleCI

While developing one of our recent projects, as a team, we decided to implement our microservices application in the mono repository. This idea allows us to sync versions between services easily, even in one commit. However, we’re not keeping this solution for ourselves. Seeing great value in it, we open-sourced one of the microservices for the community. We decided to change our private GitHub repository to be open to the public when we were ready, but before we had to find answers to questions like:

Top 7 Python testing frameworks for networks

Testing is vital to any software development process, including network programming. It helps reduce project costs and provide high-quality code. While it may not be a developer’s favorite part of their work, building tests into the code from the beginning makes it easier to fix bugs. The Python programming language makes the whole process simple. Due to its versatility and many available frameworks, testing can be almost entirely automated. Python for networking is a great choice - read on to find out the top seven Python testing frameworks.

Rust vs. Python: which would suit your project better?

Both Rust and Python are widely-recognizable names in the developer’s world. Python stepped into the IT field more than three decades ago. Rust is a younger technology but it is gaining popularity, both when it comes to developers and businesses. The question is: is Rust better than Python? Or is it maybe the over way around? This article will not provide simple answers because there are no winners or losers here. Both Python and Rust have a lot to offer, and they are great, robust technologies. This text will guide you through these programming languages’ features and show how they fit with specific projects - everything you need for the Rust/Python big picture to better understand when to choose one over the other.

How to successfully provide great UX in network applications?

When you think about designing a user experience, usually the first examples to come to mind are mobile apps. But network applications need good UX design as well. They have specific challenges, for example, visualizing large amounts of data or processing complex commands. Read on to find out about our solutions for bringing a positive user experience to networking applications, and why it's important. UX stands for user experience. It's not just about nice and tidy interfaces - the topic goes much deeper into understanding the user's behavior, expectations, emotions, and perceptions.

The Seven Stages of the SDLC

The software development life cycle (SDLC) is a process for building and delivering software – each of its phases helps with planning, building, testing, and maintaining an application. Implementing the SDLC can ensure high quality, better-functioning software. What’s more, the SDLC optimizes strategy by dividing the main business goal into smaller, easier to achieve units. However, it is hard to implement the software development life cycle wisely and adequately without a good understanding of its phases.

We've previously explained how VPP processes packets in vectors as opposed to processing each packet end to end. But how is this processing spread across CPU cores? How exactly is a vector of packets structured?
