This episode of Developer Experience is about Developer Education. It's a wonderful time to become a developer: the demand has never been higher, and there's a literal ocean of free and paid content to kick start a new career in tech. This firehose of educational content is a side-effect of such a high demand for developers, and it makes it difficult to spot actual quality content that's worth investing in.- What makes really great educational tech content?- How do beginner and advanced developers want to learn today?- And what does it teach us on communication and reaching clarity?To answer these questions, Sarah Dayan is joined today by Jason Lengstorf, VP of Developer Experience at Netlify, where he and his team ensure that developers make the most out of the platform. You may also know Jason from his dozens of lessons and workshops on Egghead.io, Frontend Master, and as the host of Learn With Jason, his fantastic developer show where he learns new technologies in 90 minutes with experts from the field.Jason Lengstorf: @jlengstorf / jason.af / Learn With JasonSarah Dayan: @frontstuff_io / sarahdayan.devNetlify: @geteslint / netlify.comAlgolia: @algolia / algolia.com"Learning to Learn", article by Sarah Drasner on CSS-Tricks

On today's episode, Sarah Dayan discusses open source sustainability with Nicholas Zakas, creator of ESLint. ESLint is a widely popular JavaScript linter with a giant ecosystem of third-party plugins. If you have a JavaScript project with a continuous integration, you are certainly using ESLint and you do not want it to fail. Nicholas is also a seasoned author who wrote several books about JavaScript since the early 2000s and more blog posts that you can probably afford to read.A recurring meme is that all modern digital infrastructure somehow depends on a project that some random person has been thanklessly maintaining for decades. Sustaining open source projects that support countless enterprise products has been a particularly hot topic in tech for the last couple of years.- How do you actively maintain a project that others rely on but doesn't bring revenue?- How do you deal with stress and fatigue?- Is the promise of open source still holding?Nicholas Zakas: @slicknet / humanwhocodes.comSarah Dayan: @frontstuff_io / sarahdayan.devESLint: @geteslint / eslint.orgAlgolia: @algolia / algolia.com

This week, I speak to Egyptian-Jewish and Filipina author Sarah Dayan Mueller about her latest book “Home In A Hundred Places.” The book tells the story of her father, who spied for Israel while in Egypt in the 1940s and early 50s, and is also a larger tale about building family and preserving Jewish memory.Say hello!

I'm delighted to bring you today, this wholesome, honeyed conversation with a new-found friend and a fellow avid lover of books and stories, Sarah Dayan Mueller. Sarah is a native of Brooklyn, New York. She is the author of two novels, including Home in a Hundred Places and Greater than the Still. Aside from writing her next novel, Sarah enjoys playing piano, ukulele, photography, and traveling the world. She lives in the suburbs of Chicago with her husband, son, and mother. What stood out for me the most about Sarah, is the level of trusting and allowing that she lets in to her life that eventually led her to develop some of the most beautiful destinations and connections. When she decided to take a 180 degree pivot from working her 9-5 as a counselor and then later in Human Resources to take on the roles of a marine wife and a full time mum, transitioning from city to city and at times countries, she found herself having to establish new routines and pursuits, yet, it was in this unassuming phase of her life, where she found time between her son's sleeping times to create, finish and publish one of her best writings yet - a beautiful memoir to remember her late father's story and now legacy with. This conversation left me filled with hope, light and introspection. There is good in the Here and Now, if we would allow in and make space for the possibilities and experiences that comes with it. I invite you to listen to this episode if you're: Struggling to harness joy and intention in your here and now Needing motivation to start and try something new with the resources you have access to, however little or small Needing to hear a different perspective about being new to a place and how to find opportunities to create positive experiences I also shared in the 1st 7 minutes some emotional heaviness I'm currently walking through and the tiny but specific actions I took to help get myself to a more centered, balanced place. I hope it serves and helps you too.In this episode: Say hello, connect and show support for Sarah's works here: FacebookInstagramWebsite Learn more, find and support Sarah's books here: Greater Than The Still: https://www.amazon.com/Greater-Still-Sarah-Dayan-Mueller-ebook/dp/B09HFHNSM9/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2M9E5CWSOJVTE&keywords=sarah+dayan+mueller&qid=1640043998&sprefix=sarah+dayan+mueller+%2Caps%2C143&sr=8-2 Home in a Hundred Places: https://www.amazon.com/Hundred-Places-Sarah-Dayan-Mueller/dp/0578870290/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2M9E5CWSOJVTE&keywords=sarah+dayan+mueller&qid=1640043998&sprefix=sarah+dayan+mueller+%2Caps%2C143&sr=8-1Sarah is currently reading: The Midnight Library by Matt Haighttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B085BVSXS9?tag=amz-mkt-chr-us-20&ascsubtag=1ba00-01000-org00-mac00-other-smile-us000-pcomp-feature-scomp-feature-scomp&ref=aa_scomp Come say hello and hang out with me here: Instagram: heartopenconvers_asiansHave a question, thought or feedback?

On today's episode, we're going to talk about fostering developer collaboration in a remote world. This is a special edition because Sarah Dayan is joined for the first time by her new co-host Bryan Robinson, Senior Developer Advocate at Algolia. Working remotely is not something new, especially in the tech industry, but since the beginning of the pandemic in 2019, there has been a wave of tech workers going remote. First it was by necessity, and then by choice. So how do you collaborate when your coworkers are not in the same room, not in the same city, country or even continent? How did it change our processes and our tools?Our guest today is Ives Van Hoorne, creator of CodeSandbox. CodeSandbox is the most advanced cloud-based sandbox environment that lets developers quickly start and share prototypes, but also collaborate on projects, provide bug reproductions, and all of that in the browser.Ives Van Hoorne: @compuivesBryan Robinson: @brobSarah Dayan: @frontstuff_ioCodeSandbox: @codesandbox / codesandbox.ioAlgolia: @algolia / algolia.com

In this episode, Sarah Dayan chats with not only one, but two guests:- Sadek Drobi, Founder and CEO at Prismic- Haroen Viaene, Javascript Library Developer at AlgoliaThey chat about what it takes for a technical product to blend into other people's codebases. How do you ensure that developers want to put your code in their code? Why is it as important to offer idiomatic integrations as it is to build powerful APIs? Sarah, Sadek and Haroen answer these questions in this third episode of Developer Experience.Prismic is one of the leading headless CMS solutions, and Sadek was one of the founding architects of the Prismic API. He now leads a growing team who build and maintain a dozen integrations on top of it. Haroen has been working for years on many of Algolia's integrations, and is the craftsmen behind the search experience of Yarn. Sadek Drobi: @SadacheHaroen Viaene: @haroenv / haroen.meSarah Dayan: @frontstuff_io / sarahdayan.devAlgolia: @algolia / algolia.comPrismic: @prismicio / prismic.io

In this first episode, we dive deeper into what is developer experience with Adam Wathan from Tailwind Labs and Lee Robinson from Vercel. Why did developer experience become so important? Concretely, what does it mean and how do you achieve it? Sarah Dayan chats with our 2 guests to uncover what makes awesome DX, what are the best examples out there, and how they imagine the future.Adam Wathan is the creator of Tailwind CSS, one of the most popular and the fastest growing CSS framework, which popularized utility-first CSS. He has since then founded his own company, Tailwind Labs, where he builds the best tools for CSS developers.Lee Robinson is the Head of Developer Relations at Vercel, the company behind Next.js, which is rapidly becoming the most popular React-based framework out there. He's built tons of learning material, including blog posts and courses, and you can always count on his video tutorials to learn how to build anything with Next.

What’s new with Typescript 4.0 Typescript is an Object-oriented, open source, scripting language, with static typing. With our guests, we discuss several exciting updates that come with the release of Typescript 4.0 , such as short-circuiting assignment operators, labeled tuple elements, and more. You can also follow along with this helpful slideshow about the release.Variadic tuple typesVariadic tuple types are of value when you don’t know the ordering of an array. Our guest Stefan Adolf, Developer Ambassador, says, “Variadic tuple types allow you to say the first three elements are of type string, and the last three elements will be of type number.” He explains further, “These little arrest operators allow you to spread arrays, so you can de-structure arrays or classes by using these three little dots. You can put them as type pins in parameters and return values. So you can be very sure that what you are hinting towards is actually typed the way you declared it.”Class property type inference from constructorsNormally, when you’ve got properties of a class, such as length, width, and area, you would give those types. But in TypeScript 4.0, this new inference feature allows you to skip giving properties a type, and it will infer the type by whatever you say the constructor is supposed to take. According to Stefan and Sarah, this feature can help developers save time and improve readability. Sarah Dayan, a Software Engineer at Algolia, explains further, “Type inference is very important, especially in TypeScript. You don’t actually want to clutter your JavaScript code with types, you want to infer as much as possible. The goal is not for you to define a type for everything, but to type what cannot be guessed by the program, and then let the logic of TypeScript decide, ‘Okay, you have a violation here or there.’ So inference is actually really interesting, because TypeScript is supposed to take the minimal amount of typing, and be smarter than you. Not having to repeat types makes a lot of sense.”Try Next.js on Platform.sh todayPlatform.shLearn more about us.Get started with a free trial.Have a question?

A promotion might be a climb up the ladder but, in actual fact, it's a step in many directions. Today, we speak with staff plus engineer Sarah Dayan, about the many nuances of her current role at Algolia, both subtle and overt. In this episode, we find out what it takes to lead teams, advocate up and down within your organization, and why relationships are of utmost importance. Getting into the swing of things, we ask Sarah to tell us more about her background before she elaborates on the role of a staff engineer. She informs listeners that her role isn't necessarily dependent on technical whizz and skill, but rather how she creates impact and implements beneficial change. Digging deeper, Sarah shares how she honed her skills as a staff-plus engineer and the need to add value in several ways; not just coding. For context, Sarah describes her role at Algolia, and you'll find out how she tackles project direction and alignment, her approach to difficult conversations, and techniques for advocating up and down the company.LinksSarah DayanSarah Dayan on TwitterAlgoliaSeanwes Podcast

Sponsored By: Show Notes [00:01:28] David explains about XState and the concept of State machines. [00:02:42] In a lot of his talks, David references a paper from 1987, so Tessa wonders how David got into State machines and Statecharts. [00:06:01] Sarah ask David how does it feel to be at the root of this pattern rediscovery in the front-end world and how do you feel about seeing those tried and true patterns slowly emerging front end? [00:08:44] Ari asks David to give an example of a common scenario that we probably have all dealt with where a state machine might be better than Boolean state management? [00:14:12] Tessa wonders how does David recommend somebody goes from, I don’t know what a state machine is to oh, here’s how I can start using them today? [00:14:28] Sarah mentions about David having a visualizer on the XState website. She wonders if he’s considered pushing it into something that could maybe be a tool and has he considered building something like that to help with collaborative work? [00:16:44] David talks about testing, especially end to end testing, and how tedious it is. [00:18:33] Tessa is curious if David ever tries to represent piano playing with state machine? Piano was his major in college! [00:21:50] Sarah wonders what were David’s big turning points, the big realizations that he made as a library author, since he’s at the fourth major version in three years of XState now. She also asks him when he decided to port XState to Vue, did he encounter major challenges or different challenges that were imported into react? [00:29:35] Ari talks about having to address this past week, an ongoing problem caused by use of a Boolean state. Sarah asks David what are some of the most creative applications that he’s seen of XState? [00:33:30] Tessa is curious to hear more about how the state machines work with scoping of events? [00:36:55] David talks about moving from Vuex to XState. [00:42:46} David explains why he would like to see more examples of people using state machines in creative ways. [00:45:27] Tessa wonders if David has any thoughts or has he seen any interesting examples on state machines, potentially opening up a lot more interesting avenues to create dynamic or intuitive or accessible user interfaces? Picks of the week: [00:49:10] Tessa’s pick is a game, “Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney- Dual Destinies.” (3DS, IOS, Android) [00:50:16] Sarah has two picks: “Ten Second Songs” on YouTube and a book called, “So You Want to Talk About Race,” by Ijeoma Oluo. [00:51:39] Ari has three picks: she seconds Sarah’s “Ten Second Songs” pick. Also, a song called, Disintegration Anxiety,” by Explosions in the Sky, and a Netflix show called, “Dead to Me.” [00:52:42] David has two picks: A tutorial by Sarah Dayan called, “Using State Machines in Vue.js with XState.” Also, midi.city which is an online synthesizer. [00:53:33] Ben’s pick is a gaming laptop Acer Predator Triton 500.

Sponsored By: Show Notes [00:02:37] Sarah was on the docket to speak at VueConfUS. Since it got cancelled, she shares those of us Stateside all about testing in Vue and why TDD is great. [00:05:25] Ari asks Sarah about what a contract in a component and what it means. Sarah breaks this down with a very simple example, a button. [00:09:50] Ben gets Sarah’s thoughts on end to end testing. She makes a case for Test Driven Development applying to more than just unit tests. [00:15:51] Tessa who saw one of Sarah’s presentations on TDD, asks her about her “tip” on when to test and when not to test. Sarah puts it simply, the question to ask is: “Do I care about it if it changes?”. [00:21:40] Sarah give us some good practices that you may want to implement when testing. Whether you are doing unit or end to end testing. [00:24:51] After Tessa asks Sarah about Snapshot Tests and whether a link text fits in a Unit Test. Sarah believes Snapshot Tests are better when you want to test logs or code. She feels they should not be used in place of Unit Tests, since they cannot test behaviour. [00:28:33] Ben talks about how some Dev’s have an obsession with getting 100’s on Code Coverage Reports. Sarah goes into how not to get caught up in the “vanity metrics”. The group joke around how it that obsession may originate from gaming and how we have to collect every coin and badge. [00:34:23] Tessa enquires about testing for accessibility. [00:39:34] Ari gives an example of working at a fast paced start-up, and whether or not TDD can reconcile when you don’t have clear cut requirements. Is it even possible? Sarah shows how it can save money since everything won’t need to be retested by hand.

They about the complications in handling money in software development and ask Sarah about the journey that led to the creation of Dinero.js, it’s implementation details, importance of maintaining good documentation, dealing with issues faced along the way, various features of Dinero and working with open source projects in general. Check it out! Show Topics: 0.40 - Advertisement : Netlify 1:44 - Sarah introduces herself and Chris talks about his interest in learning more about Dinero and compliments Sarah on its great documentation. 3.10 - Sarah gives some background saying that she created and published Dinero around a year ago. She goes on to explain that the Dinero library helps in handling monetary values. It comes with several methods to parse, manipulate and format these values. The reason behind creating it is that there is no consensus on representing money in software development currently. She shares the story from her previous job where her work was to maintain legacy accounting software, and along the way they realized, that since JavaScript did not have a way to natively represent decimal values, it led to adding large numbers of rounded up numbers continuously, eventually leading to wrong computations. 6:50 - Aimee asks about ways to handle different currencies in Dinero. Sarah answers that she has followed Martin Fowler’s money pattern where two different currencies were not allowed to be worked on directly, conversion was mandatory, just like in real life. 7:50 - Charles talks about his old freelance work where he was overwhelmed while handling and representing money in software. 8:25 - Aimee enquires if Dinero can be used for both frontend and backend. Sarah replies that it can be used anywhere and explains that there is no such thing as just a number when it comes to money, there must be a currency associated with it. 9:30 - Charles asks how to figure out the direction to go to when dealing with money and to make sure that all use-cases are covered. Sarah answers that in cases such as floating-point math where the computations don’t end up being accurate as handling is not supported, numbers can be used if treated as subunits (for e.g. 100cents = 1$). However, even then, there are issues in dividing money. She then explains the procedure of “allocation” from the Fowler pattern and she says that Dinero helps in doing the same in such scenarios. 12:54 - They discuss how they did not realize how difficult it was dealing with monetary values in development. Sarah talks about the fact that there are numerous aspects involved in it, giving the example of rounding off and stating that there are even factors such as different laws in different countries that need to be considered. 16:00 - AJ asks details about crafting the library, maintaining the centralized code and covering of edge cases and using inheritance. Sarah explains the concept of domain driven development and the importance of being an expert in the respective domains. She talks about the library structure briefly, describing that is kept very simple with a module pattern and it has allowed her to manage visibility, make it immutable, include currency converters, formatters and so on. 19:34 - AJ asks about the internal complexity of the implementation. Sarah answers that code wise it is extremely simple and easy, anyone with a limited JavaScript experience can understand it. 20:50 - AJ asks if it’s open source to which Sarah answers in affirmative and says that she would like external help with implementing some features too. 22:10 - Chris asks about Sarah’s excellent documentation approach, how has she managed to do it in a very detailed manner and how important it is in an open source project. Sarah says that she believes that documentation is extremely important, and not having good docs is a big hindrance to developers and to anyone who is trying to learn in general. She talks about her love for writing which explains the presence of annotations and examples in the source code. 27:50 - Charles discusses how autogenerated documentation gives an explanation about the methods and functions in the code but there is no guidance as such, so it is important to have guides. Sarah agrees by saying that searching for exact solutions is much simpler with it, leading to saving time as well. 29:43 - Chris speaks about Vue also being quite good at having guides and links and thanks Sarah for her work on Dinero. 30:15 - Advertisement - Sentry - Use code “devchat” to get two months free on Sentry’s small plan. 31:23 - Chris asks what the process is, for creating and running Dinero in different places. Sarah explains that she uses rollup.js which is a bundler suited for libraries, it takes in the ES module library and gives the output in any format. She states that the reason for using the ES module library is that she wanted to provide several builds for several environments with a clean and simple source and goes on to explain that these modules are native, have a terse syntax, easy to read and can be statically analyzed. She also gives the disadvantages in choosing webpack over rollup. 36:05 - Charles asks if anyone else is using Dinero. Sarah replies that around two or three people are using it, not much, but she is happy that it is out there to help people and she enjoyed working on it. 37:50 - Joe asks if there are any interesting stories about issues such as involving weird currency. Sarah answers in affirmative and gives the example of the method “hasCents”. She explains that she had to deprecate it because the unit “cents” does not have any value in non-Western currencies, and has created “hasSubUnits” method instead. She explains some problems like dealing with currencies that don’t support the ISO 4217 standard. 42:30 - Joe asks if social and political upheavals that affect the currencies have any effect on the library too. Sarah gives the example of Chinese and Japanese currencies where there are no sub-units and states that it is important to be flexible in developing stuff in an ever-changing domain like money. She also says that she does not include any third-party dependency in the library. 46:00 - AJ says that BigInts have arrived in JavaScript but there is no way to convert between typed arrays, hexadecimal or other storage formats. But later (1:10:55), he corrects that statement saying that BigInts in fact, does have support for hexadecimals. Sarah talks about wanting to keep the code simple and keep developer experience great. 49:08 - Charles asks about the features in Dinero. Sarah elaborates on wanting to work more on detecting currencies, improve the way it is built, provide better support for type libraries and get much better at documentation. 52:32 - Charles says that it is good that Sarah is thinking about adopting Dinero to fit people’s needs and requirements and asks about different forms of outreach. Sarah says that she blogs a lot, is active on Twitter and attends conferences as well. Her goal is not popularity per se but to help people and keep on improving the product. 55:47 - Chris talks about the flip side that as the product grows and becomes popular, the number of support requests increases too. Sarah agrees that open source projects tend to eat up a lot of time and that doing such projects comes with a lot of responsibility but can also help in getting jobs. 59:47 - Sarah says that she is available online on her blog - frontstuff, on Twitter as Sarah Dayan and on GitHub as sarahdayan. 1:00:06 - Advertisement - Clubhouse 1:01:01 - Picks! 1:11:42  - END - Advertisement - CacheFly!

When you make the decision to shift away from your current pursuit to something different, sometimes the transition isn't too big. There may be some overlap and you may not have to rebuild your audience or following. But what if you want to change industries completely? What if you decide that what you have been pursuing is not what brings you fulfillment and you find a passion in something completely different? What does that process look like? On this final part of our three-part series on reinventing yourself, I’m joined by my good friend Sarah Dayan (https://frontstuff.io) to talk about the process of changing industries (in her case from hand lettering to development), how that affects your brand, and how to make the switch even when it feels uncomfortable.
