As developers, it’s easy to get fixated on the mobile sphere. We’re now spending 4-5 hours a day browsing apps on our phone (that’s over 1,800 hours a year), which means a huge volume of demand is channelling into Android and iOS projects. But desktop apps are booming too.
Software engineering is an exciting field that offers various roles and responsibilities to individuals. Some prominent roles are developer, quality assurance engineer, project manager, product manager, DevOps, and many more. Each of these roles also has sub-roles. For example, we have front-end, back-end, and full-stack developers in development. In testing, we have manual testing, automation, unit testing, and end-to-end testing.
UI is nothing without UX. While user interface development is essential, it means nothing if it doesn’t lead to a good user experience. So whenever us devs add a new feature, or modifies the existing one, we must ensure the UX flows seamlessly. And that means thorough testing. Generally, the development process should involve tests at both the module and unit level to ensure both work as expected through the changes.
Many companies tell you that “the security of our customers’ data is very important to us” in their marketing communications. And you believe them, for a while. But then you discover they were hacked with an open FTP server, using a password like “nameOfTheCompany2022”, and you realise that it’s not that important after all. Why do we mention this, you ask? Well, a few months ago Bugfender got ISO 27001-certified.

Let me start by asking a question. Would you prefer to write reams of code to build your website, blog, or web app, or would you rather use a tool that did all the work for you? If you are a software developer who wants to practice application development, you may opt to write the code and build it yourself.

Static sites (websites) are not new. In fact they’ve been around since the era of Web 1.0. Back in those dim and distant days the internet only had a few contributors, so managing and maintaining a static website was fairly hassle-free, they use to have a couple of static html files. However, the needs of creators and consumers have changed dramatically since then. So we need a new technology to generate static sites, befitting the resources and innovative spirit of the digital revolution.
