Learn about XSS, submit your app of the week, have an AI make you a mixtape, and other things to do when it's too hot outside

Happy July, everyone. For those of you on summer break, I hope you’re having a chill and restful one. For the rest of us, happiest of Q3’s to you and yours lol. Whether you’re on break or not, there’s something about the summer that relieves some of the pressure from all the hard work over the winter months. I think it’s the fresh grass and flowers of the season that do it for me.

The Glitch team has been doing some gardening of our own over the past few weeks: the latest addition to our new homepage is our new weekly feature, “App of the Week.” As I type this, we’re featuring a classic: Dan Reeves’ Nasa logo generator. Next week: your favorite app? Your latest creation? Send your submissions here and help us shine a spotlight on all the coolest (even in this heat) apps in the universe.

See you on glitch.com

Identify what makes your TTFB high so you can fix it

In the past few years in the web dev world, we’ve seen a significant push towards rendering our websites on the server. Doing so is better for SEO and performs better on low-powered devices, but one thing we had to sacrifice is TTFB.
