Top 7 Featured DEV Posts from the Past Week

Every Tuesday we round up the previous week's top posts based on traffic, engagement, and a hint of editorial curation. The typical week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday, but don't worry, we take into account posts that are published later in the week.


In this tutorial, @nevodavid will run you through the process of building a chat application. By the end, you’ll learn how to authenticate users with Clerk, send real-time messages via Socket.io in a React and Node.js application, and add Novel WYSIWYG editor to a React app.
A lot of time is spent going through all of the different folders and searches needed to find what you’re looking for. @srbhr found the solution to this problem in Swirl Search, an engine that can look through multiple platforms and generate data using an LLM.
@jacktt has a weather widget in their GitHub bio that updates every six hours. How is this possible? Through the power of GitHub Actions!
In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the general definition of Unix philosophy, investigate the key elements of a well written script, and learn the building blocks of scripting with @cherryramatis!
Bun is the new Javascript Runtime built from scratch to serve the modern Javascript ecosystem. But do we even need another JavaScirpt tool? Here’s @thevinitgupta with the answer to this question and more.
@bdougieyo shows how green squares on GitHub are a framework that no longer holds value because it encourages the wrong metrics. Here’s how OpenSauced handles this issue.
In this two-part tutorial, we’re going to build a full-stack instant Meme Generator app with @vincanger! The tools you’ll need are React & NodeJS w/ TypeScript, OpenAI’s Function Calling API, and ImgFlip.com’s meme creator API.

That's it for our weekly Top 7 for this Tuesday! Keep an eye on dev.to this week for daily content and discussions...and be sure to keep an eye on this series in the future. You might just be in it!

Yes, Swirl is a new open-source library fresh out of oven. And they're solving a really cool problem. And providing open-source search.
It'll be amazing if people can show some love and 🌟 on GitHub: github.com/swirlai/swirl-search
