Documenting code, one commit at a time.
Improving the way we audit code changes is crucial for maintaining security and stability in our applications. Recently, we transitioned from feeding raw Git diffs directly to our AI analysis tools to using structured summaries. This shift significantly enhances auditability and reduces the risk of exposing sensitive information.
Sending raw diffs to AI models
Long test suite run times can significantly slow down development. Running the entire suite for every change, especially in larger projects, becomes inefficient. A focused approach that executes only the tests relevant to the modified code provides quicker feedback and accelerates the development cycle.
The primary challenge lies in accurately
We've recently rolled out enhancements to our post generation process, focusing on flexibility and code accuracy. These updates include a 'safe mode' toggle and intelligent programming language detection.
Recognizing that different tenants have varying security needs, we've introduced a 'safe mode' toggle.
Auditing tools are crucial for maintaining application security and compliance. However, false positives can create unnecessary noise and divert attention from genuine threats. One common source of these false positives is the detection of reserved domain names, such as those under the IANA's example.com, example.net, and example.
This post delves into a practical approach for creating flexible UI components that seamlessly adapt to various themes within an application. We'll explore how to avoid hardcoded styles and instead leverage style variables to ensure consistent visual appearance across different themes.
In many applications, UI components are initially developed with a specific
We've recently enhanced the user experience within our application by integrating LinkedIn login and registration, specifically aimed at simplifying the recommendation flow. This post details the changes and the reasoning behind them.
Previously, recommenders needed a GitHub account, which added friction to the process.
We've recently enhanced our platform to allow users to solicit professional recommendations for their portfolios, featuring a seamless integration with LinkedIn. This system allows users to request recommendations, and for recommenders to easily provide them while promoting the user's portfolio on their LinkedIn feed.
This post details how we streamlined our content generation process to improve security, consistency, and maintainability.
Previously, our application used separate code paths for generating content based on user prompts versus automatic generation. This divergence led to inconsistencies in security auditing, resource management, and error handling.
This update introduces an enhanced referral program with tiered commissions, seamless Dev.to integration, and updated terms and conditions to reflect these changes.
The referral program has been expanded with the addition of a dedicated landing page, complete with details about the program, commission rates, and automated tools.
In user interface design, a common challenge is guiding users towards key actions without overwhelming them with options. A recent update to our application's /earn page focused on streamlining the initial user experience by replacing multiple call-to-action (CTA) buttons with a single, unified registration button.
Having separate buttons for "Login" and
