Using the Inbuilt HTTP Client in IntelliJ IDEA
If you’re developing web applications, an HTTP client is one of the essential tools you’ll need. This tool allows you to send HTTP requests and receive responses from a web server. One of the best HTTP clients available is the one built into IntelliJ IDEA. However, it’s important to note that this tool is only available in the paid version of IntelliJ IDEA.
Updating arrays in MongoDB, what could go wrong?
I could write the introduction to this article presenting MongoDB — what it is and what its features are. Still, if you have stumbled upon this article, you probably already know all of this, and if you don’t, then go and search the web for one of many articles describing MongoDB, it’s been done so many times that it makes no point for me to do this again, so let’s get straight to the point.
Netflix on Java: How to build a 1TB Non-Heap, ultra-efficient application for video streaming — an example
We all know that Java JVM automatically allocates and cleans the application memory. The well-known Garbage Collector mechanism is responsible for all of it. As a result, a programmer doesn’t even have to be familiar with the mechanisms of operational memory usage.
Kotlin & Gradle: a perfect match
It’s not a match because they depend on each other and have no choice. It’s a match because they cooperate and complement each other.
At DAC.digital, we love using Kotlin as a main backend programming language in projects developed for our clients. We find it an elegant, quickly-evolving, type-safe, function and concurrency-focused but still compatible alternative to Java. Having coroutines feature, Arrow-KT library and their limited complexity, it’s easier for us to build performant functional software and to catch most concurrent bugs at compile time.
Scala vs Kotlin: Which one is better for your project
Do you need to choose between Scala and Kotlin? If so, you are not alone. These programming languages have become very popular in recent years, but there can be some confusion as to which one is better for what type of project. We will pick up the fight between Scala vs Kotlin and compare these two languages to help you decide which one is more appropriate for your needs!
Netflix on Java: How to build a 1TB Non-Heap, ultra-efficient application for video streaming — an example
Let’s faced the challenge: write a platform that enables efficient video streaming for many online users. The movie database can contain several hundred items of various sizes, from 0.5 to 2GB each. Total storage is 1TB. Operational memory is not a problem.
Which is better, Kotlin vs. Java? Let’s settle the debate
There is a never-ending debate between Kotlin and Java developers — which is the better programming language? Is one better than the other for certain reasons?
Hiding sensitive data in logs — Kotlin and Exposed framework
We pay special attention to protecting sensitive data in the projects we implement. One place where this data should not go is in application logs.
What is a tech stack? Technology stack in a nutshell
Creating and maintaining the websites and apps was easy because they were all pretty simple. Now things got a bit more complicated though, as often a single application will be made of multiple elements, each requiring different tools or programming language to use.
Sealed classes to rescue the PATCH endpoints in Kotlin
Everybody who used Kotlin or read about it even a little bit knows that one of the most significant features of Kotlin is null safety.
