I am sorry, but when I read your articles I get a strong AI vibe.
If you used AI to to write this article you need to state that.

All your articles lack links to additional and deeper information on the topic.
Also this is a community targeting developers, as such one of the most basic editing features is syntax highlighting. These articles are not syntax highlighted. Why is that?

If an author has a deep understanding on programming (as needed to learn and use the methods in these articles), they should be experienced enough to know that syntax highlighting and links to additional resources are basic requirements for a technical article.

On the other hand, Copy&Paste from ChatGPT would probably look like this.

I'm not the OP, so I'm not in the position to comment.

But can I just say, your comment reminded me that syntax highlighting is a thing, and so I have gone back to update my own posts to include them. Just wanted to say a big thank you! Cheers

Is there any tutorial on how to make syntax highlighting on dev.to?

First, wrap code in triple backticks (`) to turn them into code blocks:

Use of backticks

Standard code blocks without syntax highlighting

Next, append the opening triple backticks with the language of your code block to add syntax highlighting (keywords are highlighted accordingly):

Reference: You can check here for a full list of languages - you want to be using the short name in the third column - typically supported. Of course, this might vary depending on the markdown implementation on dev.to, but common languages should work just fine.

Useful tips and tricks I found the tips on using Web Workers, React.memo, and WebAssembly to be particularly helpful.

This is an interesting, eclectic mix of optimizations that span across many different domains.

It would be helpful for many of these points to provide links to source material, especially the statement about Maps vs. objects. While it is likely true, having some information or performance measurement to support the claim would be helpful.

Also, please be aware there may be copyright concerns when using images from other sources.

It blows me away by the fact that there are a lot more optimization techniques such as the WebWorkers and ServiceWorkers than to cache.

I've been implementing most of the techniques you mentioned except for the Workers and WASM. Thanks for the great post, it gave me a great insight on optimization!

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I recently launched an open-source project called GraphQLPlaceholder, and I'd love your support. Please check it out and give it a star on GitHub github.com/enochval/graphql-placeh.... Your support would mean a lot to me and help immensely in the project's growth.

Thank you.

Super cool! Do you have any specific use cases when I would utilise a service worker?

Please add syntax highlighting for the codeblocks. I wrote in my blog how to do so.

Great, thanks for sharing. I think you should have focused more on the React.js part itself because it is the performance bottleneck :)

Can you give more details on the advantages of map over object? For lookup I suppose, object[key] should be fastest, but things may be different if you need to extend your object.
