Performance is always an important thing to think about when developing an application. It has a great impact on user satisfaction—the faster the code, the smoother the experience. But, as we all know, not all code is written perfectly from the start, and even small inefficiencies pile up over
Adopting accessibility in a product can be quite an overwhelming task. There are a lot of different sources out there on the topic. We did some internal research to come up with action points we could put on roadmap, and now we want to share it publicly. This might be
Neural Networks can do a lot of things. Personally, the way they find patterns in a set of complex data always felt like magic to me, even after I started understanding how they work. They have a lot of potential uses and being able to run them in a browser
In this article, I would like to reveal how software development works at MEWS.

Thus, our state ended up being (somewhat) shaped in such a manner that it references data from one (sub)state to another. While the documentation has good reasoning
Setting the scene, meeting the players All frontend code produced by Mews is being continuously integrated and delivered via automated build steps powered by custom build Azure Pipeline workflows. The deployment process begins with a pull request merge into the master branch. Pipeline runs the usual build steps, code analysis,
For the first time in the short history of the Meet MewsDevs interview series, I decided it would be a good idea to interview two people at once. Alexander (frontend dev) and Vaclav (backend dev) have a lot in common. They both study at Charles University Faculty of Mathematics and
The second edition of Meet the MewsDevs is here! After Backend dev (and DOTA lover) Jarda, it’s time for Daria and the story of one Russian's struggle to buy sunflower seeds in Prague and going from chemical engineer to Frontend developer at Mews. Hey, Daria, you’ve been with
Everyone familiar with the Redux state management library is probably also familiar with its basic example of a todo list application. While this example illustrates some of the strengths and patterns associated with Redux quite nicely, it's a bit overwhelming for such a simple use-case. It makes you wonder... how
