Actually, I have considerable experience setting up and running various CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Travis CI. In my experience, GitHub Actions work quite well, especially for smaller projects or when you can avoid usin

Over the past few months, I have read numerous articles on this topic. Some are in favor, some are against, and others fall somewhere in between. However, they all share a common shortcoming: the absence of code. There are no codebases, no

Perhaps I wasn't clear, but I was referring to a small tool or a specific feature that, in my opinion, embodies your approach. Keeping the scope clear and minimizing cognitive load—through practices like code splitting—are essential. I
