If you’re a JavaScript developer there’s a very good chance you’ve heard of or use Vercel. In the small chance you haven’t, Vercel is this awesome platform that makes building and deploying Jamstack frameworks like Next.js incredibly fast and easy. Next.js is gaining in popularity with 51k stars on GitHub and it’s one of the most trusted stacks in the JavaScript world these days.
A majority of front-end developers deal with this buzzword all the time: V8. A big part of its popularity is due to the fact that it led JavaScript to a new level of performance. Yes, V8 is very fast. But, how does it perform its magic and why is it so responsive? The official docs state that “V8 is Google’s open source high-performance JavaScript and WebAssembly engine, written in C++. It is used in Chrome and Node.js, among others”.
Boom! Our latest release of the AppSignal for Node.js package now includes support for Next.js. The Next.js integration also includes end-to-end insights into application performance, as well as error tracking.
A good application monitoring solution will provide you with the visual representation of the performance, growth, and usage of your AJAX applications.

In today’s post, we’re going to demystify how the number of JavaScript dependencies grows while we’re working on a relatively simple project. Should you be worried about the number of dependencies? Keep in mind that this blog post is related to the Ride Down The JavaScript Dependency Hell blog post that was released a while back. We’ll show a “real-world” example of how a project’s dependencies can grow from zero to 13K.
In this guide, we’ll cover how you can use Morgan npm to log requests and other aspects of your web application built on Express (or any of the similarly architected frameworks around). So what can Morgan do for you? And when would you need it? As you’ll see in a second if you’re working with Express or a similar framework (such as restify) you’ll have the need to log incoming information about the requests, this framework was designed specifically for that, just keep reading.
The digital era always strives for newer and more innovative technology that can make the world a better place. The modifications that we are observing in current technology are not just rapid, but exponential.
