Flask is the most popular micro-framework for web programming in Python. Known for its lightweight build and flexibility, it is a fan favorite amongst beginners because of how easy it is to get started with, especially for building prototypes and small-scale projects. Even though Flask is one of the faster frameworks out there, there’s almost always scope for improving performance in web applications. Things might run fine when you serve minimal, static websites with ample compute resources.
In this article, we are going to explore why the Stripe developer experience is so passionately supported by thousands of developers globally. One of Stripe’s missions is to increase the GDP of the internet, and over the last decade, they’ve successfully executed 250 million API requests per day and over 91 billion requests per year through their APIs.
Elixir is all about performance. Say you have an app up and running with Elixir, but some parts aren't working as fast as you would like them to. That is where profiling comes in. Profiling tools usually walk you through the frequency and duration of function calls and where they spend their time. Erlang has impressive profile tooling available at its disposal. In this post, we will look into three profiling tools in Elixir: cprof, eprof, and fprof.
Static sites (websites) are not new. In fact they’ve been around since the era of Web 1.0. Back in those dim and distant days the internet only had a few contributors, so managing and maintaining a static website was fairly hassle-free, they use to have a couple of static html files. However, the needs of creators and consumers have changed dramatically since then. So we need a new technology to generate static sites, befitting the resources and innovative spirit of the digital revolution.
