This blog walks through building a clean, modular service layer in Flutter to keep mobile apps scalable, maintainable, and resilient to change. Using real examples with third-party APIs, it demonstrates how to abstract logic, structure code for API calls, and easily swap data sources without major rewrites. Youโll also learn strategies like creating request/response classes and centralizing error handling to reduce redundancy and improve code quality.
From Relic to Relevance: COBOL’s 88-Level Fields for Modern Coders
Remember when blockchain was going to change everything? Now AI is the trend dominating every conversationโbut some of the most effective programming ideas have been around for decades. This post examines one of COBOLโs lesser-known yet highly practical features: the 88-level field. Far more than a simple boolean, 88-level fields provide a clear, maintainable way to describe data conditions, enforce business rules, and streamline initialization. Through real-world examples, youโll see how this feature can reduce complexity, eliminate hard-coded values, and make logic more expressiveโdemonstrating that sometimes proven tools from โoldโ languages still have lessons worth applying today.
Zellij: The Impressions of a Casual tmux User
Let’s get this out of the way: I love tmux. Gaining the ability to multi-task within the terminal was a monumental productivity boost for me, and if you’ve used it in the past, you probably have similar stories about how it leveled up your workflow. It’s fast, it’s well-supported, and it has a plethora of features you can invoke with just a few keystrokes.
…and personally, I can only remember about a dozen of them.
Best Practices: Enterprise App Development With Python
Python has become the go-to language for enterprise-level applications, and itโs easy to see why. With its simplicity, versatility, and extensive libraries, Python provides an excellent framework for developing robust applications. But despite its wide use, successful enterprise app development with Python requires a thoughtful and strategic approach. In this guide, weโll explore some of the best practices that can …
Modernizing Cobol Applications
The world of technology is constantly evolving, but despite the rise of cutting-edge programming languages and modern software frameworks, COBOL applications continue to play a critical role in the business world. COBOL, one of the oldest programming languages, still powers many of the core systems of industries like banking, insurance, and government. Why, then, are businesses increasingly considering modernizing COBOL …
