π Behind the Code β
Welcome to Behind the Code β where we unravel the mysterious, magical, and occasionally chaotic world of what actually happens under the hood. π§ π₯
This section isnβt just another place to drop definitions. Itβs your developer backstage pass to understand why things work, how they work, and what happens when they don't (hello, infinite loops and memory leaks π).
Whether you're building websites, APIs, full-stack apps, or just trying to impress your rubber duck β Behind the Code is here to break down the tech buzzwords into simple, fun, and developer-friendly stories.
β¨ Why It Matters β
Tech moves fast β but core concepts stay evergreen π². Once you truly understand how something works, you can:
- Debug better
- Architect smarter
- Build cooler stuff
- Explain it to others without sounding like a confused goat π
π― What You'll Find Here β
Pub/Sub Explained β With analogies like TV channels and pizza deliveries π
Event Loop Demystified β JavaScriptβs inner circus πͺ
WebSockets vs HTTP β The chatty roommate vs. the formal letter writer βοΈ
REST vs GraphQL β Buffet vs. Γ la carte APIs π½οΈ
Middleware, Tokens, Queues, Caching... β The things you nod at in meetings but never fully Googled π
βAny fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good developers write code that humans can understand.β β Martin Fowler
So grab your β, your favorite text editor theme, and letβs get behind the code.
