While reviewing the TechCognify website, I noticed something interesting. The entire site was fast ⚡—except the reviews section, which was taking 10–15 seconds to load. Since the frontend was already optimized with Next.js, this immediately pointed to a backend-level bottleneck, not a UI issue. On inspecting the api/reviews endpoint, the root cause became clear: Images were being stored and served directly from the database, instead of an optimized media delivery service. This led to: - Heavy API payloads - Slow response times - A degraded user experience Fix:I refactored the media flow and moved image storage to an optimized external service. Outcome:Instant load times for reviews and consistent performance across the site. Key takeaway:Performance issues often aren’t visible in the UI.They’re the result of early architectural decisions, especially around media and data handling. Frontend optimization helps.Backend decisions define scale. #NextJS #WebPerformance #BackendEngineering #SoftwareArchitecture #TechCognify

Can I run worpress on replit (and maybe use the replit agent to make changes to my website)? I was able to run a wordpress project but instead of using mysql as database I used sqlite. It was just a test and with more config it's also possible to use the postgres database provided by replit. Next step? Deploy it to production (a php hosting) using CICD with github actions.

🚀 I just launched a new way to get application lifecycle help — without hiring full-time engineers If you’ve ever struggled with: - Deployment issues at the worst possible time - Maintaining legacy code no one wants to touch - Migrations that keep getting postponed - Small but critical changes piling up We built something for you. It’s a subscription-based Application Lifecycle Management service, inspired by the simplicity of DesignJoy — but focused on real-world engineering and operations work. If this sounds useful — or you know someone who’s drowning in ops work — check it out: https://alm.busqandote.com/ What makes it different -⏸️ Pause anytime — only pay for days you actually use -🔁 Renews every 30 days of usage, not calendar days -📌 Requests are tracked transparently via GitHub -🎯 Focused on progress, clarity, and momentum — not just “ticket closed” This is ideal for startups, founders, and small teams who need reliable lifecycle support without adding headcount. Feedback welcome. This is just the beginning. 💬

GitHub is like a library for your code. You can store, share, and collaborate on projects — and it’s free.

You'll have a lot of fails when trying something for the first time but when all errors are found and solved then it's the easiest job.
