Engineering Blogs — Curated list of engineering blogs of top tech companies

“ This was the fastest product I have ever shipped. It was built and ship in 2 days. 🚀🚀 On Monday, I showed article "Reducing Slack’s memory footprint" in my twitter feed. (tweeted by @mathowie) It was written by Slack Engineering team to explain how they solved the problem of high memory consumption of Slack’s desktop app. It had a great explanation about how to approach the problem, think about the better solution and build the desktop application. I explored the Slack Engineering blog and it has lots of wisdom shared by the engineering team at Slack. As a software engineer, I am always curious 💭to learn about development strategies behind the great tech products. On Tuesday, I started to look for more engineering blogs from different startups and tech companies. In few hours, I found out that many of tech companies have a special section or blog related to engineering and development. On these blogs, they publish lots of new things including their approach to solve the problem, their experience with different tools and technologies, story about their engineers and more. 👨‍💻 Finally, I decided to build a place where anyone can find all the engineering blogs. 📚 I started working on the idea on Tuesday. By the end of Wednesday, I have built the first prototype. On Thursday, I added new features including 'submit new company blog' and 'the total users' each of these tech company manages to give more sense about how to build and scale infrastructure that handles the traffic of millions of people (Some are in billions.) I posted on few communities and the response was amazing. Thank you @JonathanZWhite for review it. A few hours ago, PH has also tweeted a funny thing on complex engineering infrastructure. https://ift.tt/2uAEniu Let me know your feedback or suggestions to make it better. ”

Air Traffic Control — A simple action-based router for Redux.

“ The Airplane Mode team has been hard at work building tools to help travelers pick the best flights. Along the way, they’ve been creating tools for the developer community as well. The first is Air Traffic Control. It’s the action-based router for Redux, which they have in production usage on the flyairplanemode.com React / Redux app. They gave a talk last week at Appcues, and dove into their web architecture, the Air Traffic Control router, and their motivations for creating it. I found it impressive, and I think the rest of the community will as well. 👩‍✈️🛩✈️👨‍✈️ ” – Jackson Noel Discussion | Link

The DJ — A Black Mirror inspired app that rewards long relationships.

“ Hey PH! With the DJ I wanted to see how far I could push the concept of expiring relationships by applying them to conversations specifically (I'm also the guy that made the other black mirror app: rateME). Users are rewarded for taking their time to talk to their match as the longer they talk to them, the more that is revealed to them. I use AI to help the DJ in making decisions based on how the conversation goes. All messages are encrypted and analyzed client side as far as privacy and security goes. It's in a fully functional beta release as I'd like for the DJ to learn by example. Let me know what you think! ” – Stephen H. Discussion | Link
