TypeScript
TypeScript ist eine Programmiersprache die zu JavaScript transpiliert wird und Klassen, Schnittstellen, Vererbung, Module, anonyme Funktionen, generische Typen und eine statische Typisierung unterstützt. In der großen Auswahl an Programmiersprachen die zu JavaScript transpilieren ist TypeScript eine der beliebtesten und erfährt große Unterstützung durch Werkzeuge und größere Projekte. Die Deno Laufzeitumgebung unterstützt TypeScript nativ, ohne Transpilierung.

Angular State Management
I’ve effing had it with shoddy SPA Frontends and Projects that don’t get it! Where ever I look, I run into developers who don’t seem to be able to handle the Web in its entirety. Either with the old-school ultra-fanatic „CSS Nazi“ camp that instantly leap into a hissy-fit whenever someone dares to use a…

Web Frontend Animation
To animate and produce neat effects in a regular web experience that isn’t a game or some other large-scale application, web animation libraries are the go-to solution.

Zed, a new and wicked fast code editor
In my recent post on Voidzero I described the current trend of moving Jamstack tooling to binary executables built with Rust. Well, Rust has gained critical mass as a low-level and systems language and is very quickly becoming the go-to replacement for C and C++. People have rediscovered their love for low-level coding with this…

Das Web bleibt unaufhaltsam
Die JS / TS / Jamstack / Web Anhänger sind auch in 2025 weiter unterwegs und heben nach wie vor ihre Lieblings-Softwareumgebung regelmäßig in neue, bisher unerreichte Höhen. Native Werkzeuge sind der neue Qualitätsanspruch. Der neueste „heiße Scheiß“ sind Enwicklerwerkzeuge und Umgebungen, die nicht mehr in JS/TS und Node sondern nativ und binär in Rust…

Angular UI Toolkits
I’m working on a Jamstack application full time right now. It has quite a legacy and part of redoing, cleaning up and throwing out some old bits of code and old versions of Angular and other libraries also has me dabbling with and exploring the UI. Angular comes with it’s own official UI toolkit, Angular…

Angular, old-school
Currently I’m up to the brim in a legacy Angular project. It’s not for the faint of the heart. Angular 11 that seems ancient by current metrics and a backend mix of TypeScript and JavaScript with a disfunctional dev/hmr setup has me inching my way towards understanding this behemoth of a business SPA with recurring…

Static Website Editors
25 years ago the Web was built by hand, using impressive desktop GUI tools with offline templating and built-in web refactoring. This was the bees knees back then, believe me. Todays CMSes have largely pushed away the offline static web development, but static WYSIWYG web editors still enjoy their little niche. If you know what…

Deno 2
The newest major release of Deno, Deno 2 was released in October, some 6 weeks ago or so. I missed out, because I was occupied with other things but I’m as of now catching up on the new feature-set and will likely use the new Deno in a legacy project in an attempt to replace…

Mobile First
„From here on out, if it’s not mobile-first, it is not web-design.“ Das heißt soviel wie: Von jetzt an gilt, ist es nicht mobile-first, ist es kein Webdesign. Dieser Spruch, der durch die Welt der professionellen Webentwicklung ging, ist nun ungefär 15 Jahre alt. Er wurde geprägt als zum ersten mal die Zahl der mobilen…

WordPress Kategorien, Schlagwörter und Taxonomien
Das Schlagwort- und Taxonomiesystem in WordPress ist vielseitig einsetzbar. Mit ein paar Zeilen PHP-Code an den richtigen Stellen kann man problemlos für jeden Inhaltstyp beliebig Schlagwort-Taxonomien anlegen. Es gibt auch bereits „ab Werk“ fertig eingerichtete Taxonomien. Hier eine kleine Erläuterung, was es damit in WordPress auf sich hat:

WordPress und seine Plugins
WordPress ist der Platzhirsch was Onlineredaktionssystem angeht. Und zwar durchaus zu recht. Es gibt von Experten viel Kritik an WordPress – wegen des Datenmodells und der laienhaften Integration der Datenbank als Innere Plattform, des wp_post Gottobjekts, hart verdrahteten URLs, der unzeitgemäßen rigiden Authentifizierung Marke Eigenbau, prozeduralen Programmierung und diversen anderen Eigenheiten. So fundiert diese Kritik…

SEO 2024
A few years back I wrote German piece on SEO, the somewhat obnoxious misuse the term gets from the broader masses and explained what the term „SEO“ actually means and how it relates to the shady claims of magic tricks to boost Google placement and search term domination. Having that issue covered it makes sense…

An all new Angular
Just this morning I had a very thorough and pleasant interview with a team that has its mission-critical stuff done with Angular. For me a good reason to check back with the Angular crew, also because they also were the pioneers of a PL that I’ve come to like and use in the mean time:…

Hipster Compliant VDOM
VueJS is the third of The Big Three™ SPA/VDOM Toolkits and it enjoys an ever growing following. Sort of a mix of the best of React and Angular, it has a distinct „ISO-certified hipster compliant“ vibe about it and doesn’t fail to deliver on its „View!“ promise.
