-m Microservices in Public and SQL Injection (on IBM)

Ok, I can't wait, let me start with the new blog series on the microservices!

💪🧑‍💻 Release: Antifragile Dev Series

Who followed me on Twitter before knew I had a debt with you. I promised that I was going to build a microservice architecture in public:

Gui Latrova @guilatrova

I'm planning to build a whole microservice architecture in public, sharing all decisions and keeping the whole code open source for anyone to give feedback and learn from. Follow me if you're interested in that kind of stuff!

It took me a few months to decide and finally prepare something for you. I had to think of something that doesn't take an insane amount of time to build, and that people would feel interested in the challenges.

Also, I wanted to do more than just showing. I wanted you to participate!

I'm calling this series #antifragiledev, and you can find more on the scope and how to participate here:

Frustrated by regular schooling, and motivated to build things on my own I'm willing to build a microservice architecture in public using Python, React, terraform, and AWS. AND YOU CAN PARTICIPATE!

↕️ Commits

Life demands compound knowledge about many tools and languages that no one but life can teach. In this article I'm going to convince you why formal education is dead, and what you should be doing instead.

I share a funny story where I found a SQL Injection vulnerability in an IBM service, also how it works, how to explore it using Python and Flask.

Since I was a kid there's never been a moment where I had "nothing to do". I'd like to remind you to pause, breathe, and enjoy your life, because you might have forgotten to do it.

🎨 Rebranding

I decided to move https://blog.guilatrova.dev to https://guicommits.com . Since I started this blog with no expectations it grew more than I could expect, and I believe this renaming makes sense to keep things simpler and easier to remember.

New emails should come from the address newsletter@guicommits.com, so ensure to have this email in your contact list to avoid missing new issues!

Micro Frontend Architecture

The same concept of microservices can be applied to frontend applications, this short article gives some examples.
