      <title>RustConf in 2025: Exploring the Next Decade of Rust — Seattle, Sept 2-5</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hello, dear DEV community! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some of you here might remember me as a DEV.to/Forem team member. It would be an understatement to say that my time at dev.to taught me a LOT about how passionate and dedicated to learning the broader open source community is 💞&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since my amazing time on team DEV, I have been working for the &lt;a href="https://rustfoundation.org" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Rust Foundation&lt;/a&gt;: the independent, nonprofit steward of the Rust programming language and its global community as their Director of Communications &amp;amp; Marketing. As many of you here will know, Rust has been the most-admired programming language for 8 years running, according to &lt;a href="https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2024/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;StackOverflow&lt;/a&gt;, and for good reason—there are &lt;em&gt;so&lt;/em&gt; many exciting things being built with Rust, tons of fascinating use cases, and areas to explore in this growing corner of open source. In short, if you're actively building things with Rust or you are curious about it, you know it's a powerful language with an impact that is deepening every day. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to providing grants for Rust maintainers, providing infrastructure support for the Rust Project, and facilitating many impactful technology initiatives benefitting Rust and its users, the Rust Foundation hosts an event called RustConf—the original annual conference for the Rust community. I wanted to pop in here and tell you all a bit more about this year's RustConf taking place in Seattle, Washington (and online!) from September 2-5, 2025.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"Async Day" Workshops @ RustConf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For the first time this year, we’re hosting Async Day on Tuesday, September 2 — a full day of hands-on, in-person workshops dedicated to real-world async in Rust. Whether you’re learning .await or integrating Rust with C++, there’s a workshop designed to meet you where you are.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This year's Async Day workshops:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Async Design Patterns in Rust” — Hosted by: &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/speakers/#1543" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Conrad Ludgate&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Keynotes
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RustConf 2025 will feature four inspiring keynotes by the following leaders: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/speakers/#1484" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Mark Russinovich&lt;/a&gt; (CTO, Microsoft Azure) —&lt;br&gt;
&lt;em&gt;"&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1454" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;From Blue Screens to Orange Crabs: Microsoft’s Rusty Revolution&lt;/a&gt;"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1470" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Ellie Huxtable&lt;/a&gt; (Atuin) — "&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1470" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Rust All the Way Down&lt;/a&gt;"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/speakers/#1509" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Jonathan Kelley&lt;/a&gt; (Dioxus) — "&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1468" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;High-Level Rust and the Future of Application Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/speakers/#516" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Nicholas Matsakis&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/speakers/#1038" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Jack Huey&lt;/a&gt; (The Rust Project) —"&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1481" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Vision Doc: The Next 10 Years of Rust&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Talks
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to the keynotes listed above, we'll also have many talks from people using Rust to &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1457" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;address human trafficking&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1461" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;power healthcare technology&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule/#1473" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;develop a secure and anonymous whistleblowing system at a major news publication&lt;/a&gt;, and so much more!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/schedule" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; View our full program&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Community Room
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For the second time, we're offering a room specifically dedicated to Rust-focused lightning talks and discussions. This means that anyone can sign up to share what they're working on and their perspectives about Rust. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Networking
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We'll also have a dynamic expo hall experience filled with exhibiting sponsors who are eager to talk to developers about shared Rust opportunities, including jobs, project to contribute to, and much more. We've announced a few &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/sponsors" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;sponsors&lt;/a&gt; already and are about to share more!  &lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Join the "Rustacean" community at RustConf 2025 🦀
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks for taking the time to read this dispatch from a former DEV staff member! It's been amazing checking back in on this platform and reading about what many of you have been working on. Shout-out to all the wonderful folks contributing to and moderating the &lt;a href="https://dev.to/t/rust"&gt;DEV rust tag&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I know I'm a tad biased, but I truly believe that this year's &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;RustConf&lt;/a&gt; is the perfect one for Rust newbies or RustConf first-timers to join, because, in addition to celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the first stable release of Rust this year, we'll be exploring what's NEXT in Rust and the truly innovative places it's showing up. In other words, even if you're not a longtime Rust contributor, you'll walk away with a sense of the opportunities that exist in this ecosystem. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If I've successfully convinced you to join us at RustConf 2025, &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/register" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;register&lt;/a&gt; while spots remain! If you have some Rust experience and are interested in a hands-on "Async Day" workshop in Seattle, you'll &lt;em&gt;definitely&lt;/em&gt; want to register for one soon while we have capacity.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, if you do decide to join us in Seattle, please get in touch with me! I'd love to know who from the DEV community is onsite so I can chat with you 🧡&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;P.S. Partner with RustConf!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;em&gt;If you work for an organization that is invested in the success of Rust/open source and would benefit from gaining brand visibility at an event filled with active and passionate programmers, partnering with us as a sponsor of RustConf is a great opportunity! Learn more about our sponsorship opportunities and start a conversation with my fantastic team &lt;a href="https://rustconf.com/become-a-sponsor" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

      <title>Top 7 Featured DEV Posts from the Past Week</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;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.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The recent PyPI phishing attacks have compromised several Python library maintainers and their packages. This incident encouraged &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/erikaheidi"&gt;@erikaheidi&lt;/a&gt; to write this post about a simple task you can do as an open source maintainer or contributor to ensure your code is coming from the right place.&lt;/p&gt;

  5 Refreshing Projects
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lots of projects nowadays seem stale or are only for beginners. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/wadecodez"&gt;@wadecodez&lt;/a&gt; shares some ideas for some more intermediate projects.&lt;/p&gt;

  Side projects: what, why, how
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this post, &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/maurerkrisztian"&gt;@maurerkrisztian&lt;/a&gt; explores the value of side projects. If you've been thinking of starting a project outside of your school program or job, this one goes out to you!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why your site should be under 14kb
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It isn’t surprising that having a smaller website means it loads faster. What you might not know is that a 14kb page will load faster than a 15kb page, while a 15kb page won’t load significantly faster than a 16kb one. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/shadowfaxrodeo"&gt;@shadowfaxrodeo&lt;/a&gt; will explain why.&lt;/p&gt;

      <guid>https://dev.to/devteam/top-7-featured-dev-posts-from-the-past-week-20h6</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;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.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  How to use HTTP Status Codes
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;HTTP status codes are short messages that are provided when we interact with a server, showing us what’s happening. See if you’re using those status codes right with &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/pragativerma18"&gt;@pragativerma18&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/pragativerma18" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F242611%2F3cef560b-1c27-403a-ac74-76260a792597.jpg" alt="pragativerma18"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://dev.to/pragativerma18/youre-not-using-http-status-codes-right-pc6" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;
      &lt;h2&gt;You're Not Using HTTP Status Codes Right&lt;/h2&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#codenewbie&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#computerscience&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#api&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

  Hacking BeReal (On MITM Attacks)
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/ozcap"&gt;@ozcap&lt;/a&gt; wanted to see how much it would be possible to manipulate a social networking app with the help of a software called Mitmproxy. See how it turned out!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/ozcap" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F822864%2F677256dd-a585-471f-9a87-8ae173780173.png" alt="ozcap"&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#python&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#programming&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#api&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

  Prevent Unnecessary Re-Renders in React!
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Re-renders are when React needs to update content that has already been displayed. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/adevnadia"&gt;@adevnadia&lt;/a&gt; provides some tips on how to prevent this when possible!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/adevnadia" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#javascript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#react&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#performance&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  React TS Tips
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s an example from &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/lico"&gt;@lico&lt;/a&gt; as to why you shouldn’t repeat the type when you pass functions as props in React TS and instead use their types.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/lico" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F521071%2Fa5a86d9b-3235-421f-9b96-e82f631673a4.png" alt="lico"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://dev.to/lico/react-ts-dont-repeat-the-type-when-you-pass-functions-as-props-use-their-types-5h6h" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;

      &lt;h3&gt;SeongKuk Han ・ Aug 19 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#react&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#typescript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#beginners&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;

&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As you build your app, you may realize it’s growing slower as you add more features. Here are some things you can do to mitigate that effect from &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/chegerose"&gt;@chegerose&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;

  Configuring a codespace for a frontend workshop — &amp;amp; more!
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/blackgirlbytes"&gt;@blackgirlbytes&lt;/a&gt; found the solution to the chaos of workshopping and educating beginner developers to code – GitHub Codespaces. There are so many helpful pointers in this tutorial so don't waste another minute before diving in!&lt;/p&gt;

  My Dev Workflow on WSL
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Windows is not the best choice for programming natively, but that’s why Windows Subsystem for Linux is available. Here’s how &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/nexxeln"&gt;@nexxeln&lt;/a&gt; decides to set up a workflow on WSL.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ReadMe.md in your Terminal
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Documentation is a crucial part of being a developer, so make docs accessible with a little tool called rdme. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/sourishkrout"&gt;@sourishkrout&lt;/a&gt; will show you how to be able to read README.md files in your console.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Lessons Were Learned
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's always valuable when a dev looks back on when they first started and reflects on what they wish they knew at the time. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/maddy"&gt;@maddy&lt;/a&gt; did just that and shared those reflections here. Lucky us!&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;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.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  Write to Improve
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/wesen"&gt;@wesen&lt;/a&gt; started writing regularly a year ago and became a better developer for it. Here are some tips to start this process yourself!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/wesen" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#career&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#programming&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#writing&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#productivity&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Coding as art
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The community loved this artwork by &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/asyrafhussin4"&gt;@asyrafhussin4&lt;/a&gt; and it's easy to see why. True artistry — and the palette is comprised of only HTML &amp;amp; CSS 💫  &lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/asyrafhussin4" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F166615%2F98402dda-7048-4da7-9ed7-fd3b83573095.jpg" alt="asyrafhussin4"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#html&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#css&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;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.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  Why Learn Typescript?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/annabaker"&gt;@annabaker&lt;/a&gt; is learning Typescript and finding it isn’t as hard as one might think. Here is some great inspiration to start learning Typescript yourself.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/annabaker" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#javascript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#typescript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#beginners&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Making Use of Your Old Laptop
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instead of adding to the already mounting electronic waste, &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/alejandro_du"&gt;@alejandro_du&lt;/a&gt; takes an old laptop and transforms it into a new database server using Ubuntu Server, Docker, and a MariaDB database.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/alejandro_du" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;

  &lt;/a&gt;

    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;
      &lt;h2&gt;Your Old Laptop Is Your New Database Server&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;h3&gt;Alejandro Duarte ・ Jul 26 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#mariadb&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#database&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#sql&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#dba&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Ultimate Engineering Tool
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That diagrams are ubiquitous is not a coincidence. In this post, &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/wesen"&gt;@wesen&lt;/a&gt; shares the beauty of diagrams and how useful they are across and within all disciplines.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;

        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#design&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#beginners&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#productivity&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Automating REST API Security Testing
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most APIs are public-facing and seldom go through a proper security testing cycle. Here, &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/intesar"&gt;@intesar&lt;/a&gt; suggests some free and automated solutions for you to get started automating that process for everyone’s benefit.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Setting up a new Git Environment
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It’s always important to configure tools to your liking for optimal performance. Here are some steps &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/snaka"&gt;@snaka&lt;/a&gt; always takes to ready a new Git environment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Firefox Forgotten?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Firefox’s market share dropping to fourth place across browsers comes at a shock to a lot of people.   &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/colabottles"&gt;@colabottles&lt;/a&gt; speculates on the details of browser usage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Importance of Clean Code
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Clean Code has become a bit of a buzzword recently, but it is important, both as a developer and as an executive or CTO in a startup. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/chainguns"&gt;@chainguns&lt;/a&gt; shares some perspective on the importance of clean code in a startup environment.&lt;/p&gt;

      <guid>https://dev.to/devteam/top-7-featured-dev-posts-from-the-past-week-2nie</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;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.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  On Criticism
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every developer has both been on the receiving and the giving end of criticism. It’s a vital part of our job, so let’s learn how to do it optimally with &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/lexlohr"&gt;@lexlohr&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/lexlohr" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F21839%2F3bffe2cb-6603-4757-a8d5-5652fe12e7a1.png" alt="lexlohr"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://dev.to/lexlohr/about-criticism-12f3" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;
      &lt;h2&gt;About criticism&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;h3&gt;Alex Lohr ・ Jul 20 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#productivity&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#career&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#discuss&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  You Don’t Need to be Perfect
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We, as developers, want the best for ourselves and what we produce. As we build from scratch it’s natural to be committed to what we produce. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/mstryoda"&gt;@mstryoda&lt;/a&gt; questions if we have to be perfect or if we are unintentionally forced to.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/mstryoda" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F324395%2F685e70d0-8b8c-4bc2-89ce-39195fa0cace.jpg" alt="mstryoda"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;

    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;
      &lt;h2&gt;Software Developers, You Needn’t Be Perfect&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;h3&gt;Emre Savcı ・ Jul 21 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#programming&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#productivity&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#career&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Retro Animated CSS Border
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Inspired from the ShopTalkShow’s temporary theme, &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/chokcoco"&gt;@chokcoco&lt;/a&gt; recreates a similar retro aesthetic. &lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/chokcoco" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F154506%2F6231ea20-2643-4120-ba25-1ebc45da8c4b.png" alt="chokcoco"&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://dev.to/chokcoco/fantastic-css-border-animation-5166" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__content"&gt;
      &lt;h2&gt;Fantastic CSS border animation&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;h3&gt;Coco ・ Jul 22 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#css&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#javascript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#html&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#web&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Clean Architecture: React
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This text is part of a series of texts from &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/rubemfsv"&gt;@rubemfsv&lt;/a&gt; about Clean Architecture analysis applied with different frameworks and languages. This week, we’re covering React.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;

      &lt;h2&gt;Clean Architecture: Applying with React&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;h3&gt;Rubem Vasconcelos ・ Jul 24 '22&lt;/h3&gt;
      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#react&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#typescript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#cleanarchitecture&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Quick History Lesson!
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/iarchitsharma"&gt;@iarchitsharma&lt;/a&gt; put together this remarkable post cataloguing the history of JavaScript. Class is in session!&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;

    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;
      &lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F676134%2F54212bd4-07df-4510-a9f4-e78cd52194a5.jpg" alt="iarchitsharma"&gt;

      &lt;div class="ltag__link__taglist"&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#javascript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#programming&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#web3&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Drag and Drop from Scratch
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Drag and drop applications are very common nowadays, they are great for the user experience and nowadays people notice when it’s missing. &lt;a class="mentioned-user" href="https://dev.to/franklin030601"&gt;@franklin030601&lt;/a&gt; shares an easy way to set it up in your React app without libraries.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div class="ltag__link"&gt;
  &lt;a href="/franklin030601" class="ltag__link__link"&gt;
    &lt;div class="ltag__link__pic"&gt;

        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#react&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#javascript&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#webdev&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span class="ltag__link__tag"&gt;#tutorial&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
