Frontend Hire

Someone I recently connected with is looking for senior mobile developers (React Native). They want folks with 4-5 years of experience. If you fit this requirement, send me some of your best work and I'll share your profile with them. The company is in the healthcare domain. #opportunity

Wrote a quick one about my career so far. I am writing this particular blog to gather all the thoughts I have about what I will do next. This means I also have to write about what has happened in the past 3 years from a career perspective to understand “what to do next.” Read the full blog - On Medium: https://lnkd.in/gijWMC86 - Or on my personal website: https://lnkd.in/g37D8sww PS: I am currently working with a few folks to make email inexpensive. But I am also actively looking for roles that would let me be a more generalist. If you know any I’d be happy to hear about them. #career #writings

Next.js 15 is now stable. If anyone wants to learn how to migrate from Next.js 14 to 15, they can do so while contributing a new chapter for this course: https://lnkd.in/gaefxXVq This is the best way to learn. #migration #nextjs

Pushed a page to show public analytics of Frontend Hire. Link to page: https://lnkd.in/g_g79nJF Plausible Analytics powers these analytics! #analytics #frontendhire

Courses I had planned for Frontend Hire but do not have the bandwidth to make them. If anyone wants to work on any of these, I would give you as much support as possible. Plus, these would make great projects for your resume! https://lnkd.in/guhdwMaw #frontendhire #projects #courses

Oh my! For many these design patterns extend way past shadcn. Go explore the code to see how shadcn has composed the sidebars. That is more important than the actual code. https://lnkd.in/gVUYbbnK #shadcn

Frontend Hire is now completely free and open-source. You can read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gWp-Msfv But long story short: We thought we could make money. We are not making enough for the effort we put into it. So, rather than abandoning the project entirely, we decided to make it open source, allowing the community to benefit from and potentially build upon our work. #oss #content

A clean way to sort text based values which has a specific weight. Do you know something cleaner? #js

Create a personal brand! Everyone has something to share. Do this over time, and you'll have your brand. For example, I made more money talking about Frontend Hire than from Frontend Hire itself. When you have a personal brand, opportunities come knocking on your door. Plus, if you knock on doors with a personal brand, people are more likely to consider you due to your inherent value. Write as if no one sees your content. Soon, you'll be surprised. Build as if no one uses your product. Soon, you'll be surprised. Code + Media is a super powerful combination. Either of them can make money. Sometimes both do. I am also doing a low-cost session on the same on topmate.io: https://lnkd.in/gzUZMvjx Seats are limited! #personalbrand #linkedin #buildinginpublic

Astro is great, but it still has a few minor issues. One of these issues is that its content collections only support top-level data structures, which means I have to use two collections for the same entity. Wait, isn’t Frontend Hire built on Next.js? It is! The reason I’m migrating is a topic for another post—or maybe even a blog.
