Brahmos, a New, Small, React-Like UI Framework with Concurrent Rendering -- Q&A with Sudhanshu Yadav
Brahmos implements the known React APIs (hooks, context, concurrent mode, and more) with a different and potentially faster method that also leverages a standard feature of JavaScript: template literals. Brahmos is among the very few UI frameworks that implements the experimental concurrent mode API sponsored by React. Other frameworks may be waiting out, or discarding the feature entirely.

Improving Webassembly and Its Tooling -- Q&A with Wasmtime’s Nick Fitzgerald
WebAssembly, now a web standard, aims to grow beyond the browser. Wasm runtimes are implementing proposals to achieve this vision. Fitzgerald tells us about his recent work on WebAssembly tooling and his implementation of reference types in the Wasmtime WebAssembly runtime -- a prelude to interface types and easy interoperation between Wasm and a host language.

Load Testing APIs and Websites with Gatling: It’s Never Too Late to Get Started
Conducting load tests against APIs and websites can both validate performance after a long stretch of development and get useful feedback from an app in order to increase its scaling capabilities and performance. Engineers should avoid creating “the cathedral” of load testing and end up with little time to improve performance overall. Write the simplest possible test and iterate from there.
