I just dropped a new text that spills the beans on nailing those vendor relationships. Let me share why respect and openness are the keys to successful business partnerships. In this fast-moving market, it's all about staying ahead of the curve.

Is Tauri an Electron killer?

ElectronJS-powered applications are ubiquitous; Slack, Visual Studio Code, Figma, Discord, Postman and countless others. My teams have released several projects using this technology, and it certainly works - albeit with a few minor but irksome bumps along the way.

Engineers mission does not change.

New engineering solutions continue to grow at an exponential rate. Amazing! But what difference does this make in our daily tasks?
