What are we discovering this week?
I had a fling with self-hosting these couple of months and was not focusing here. Now I am back, stronger than ever.
Led me to learn how to write a little for Udemy courses and blogs.
We like using a search engine now and then, which leads to looking at some possible options in that world, but only my personal items. Imagine an engine to search through all your book highlights, Twitter feed, and whatnot. (misou, monocle)
Coming back to work, will the new generation of applications may it be web or mobile cannot live without a REST API now and then. We’ll cant go building an API every time I run a frontend app, so some help is appreciated with msw
They say All work and no play makes Jignesh a dull boy
Also if you have seen the Instagram (@prikeshdexter) you know that I love games, and being brought up on those 16-bit adventures every day led me to RetroPie. It is a Retrogames emulator, capable of supporting a lot of games and different platforms.
Going forward I am adding some small talks on great programming that come across to me. Make sure to look for it below.

msw by @ApiMocking
Seamless. A dedicated layer of requests interception at your disposal. Keep your application's code and tests unaware of whether something is mocked or not.
Deviation-free. Request the same production resources and test the actual behavior of your app. Augment an existing API, or design it as you go, when there is none.
Familiar & Powerful. Use Express-like routing syntax to capture outgoing requests. Use parameters, wildcards, and regular expressions to match requests, and respond with necessary status codes, headers, cookies, delays, or completely custom resolvers.
💻: TypeScript

Rise of the JAMstack — Mathias Biillman
The emergence of Git-centered workflows, around modern build tools, static site generators, and modern browsers, has changed the way most front-enders work. Matt Biilmann will cover how a new stack is emerging and how this will change how websites and web apps are built in the future.
A little about India, the food, the people and the culture
The Food
Misal Pav
Misal pav is a popular Maharashtrian street food of usal (sprouts curry) topped with onions, tomatoes, farsan (fried savory mixture), lemon juice, coriander leaves and served with a side of soft pav (Indian dinner rolls).
The sprouts curry is made from moth bean sprouts. This misal recipe is a tasty and filling vegan dish that can be served as breakfast, lunch, or brunch.
