Deno Deploy Is Shutting Down: Where to Move Your App, and How Big the Move Is

The usual questions about where to run TypeScript functions are latency and cost. Deno Deploy users now have a blunter one: the platform is going away. On October 9, 2026, Ryan Dahl said the whole Deno team is moving to Cloudflare and that Deploy will shut down six months later, which puts the deadline around April 2027.I spent a day sizing the migration on a real codebase and pricing the main destinations. This is the condensed version; the complete guide on DevToolLab has the audit script, eve

Testing REA, the Viral AI Reverse Engineering Repo, Against Real Source Code

Ask a coding agent how a closed app works and it will happily explain, whether or not it actually read anything. REA (Reverse Engineer Anything) is the project trying to fix that by giving agents real analysis tools and making every answer carry evidence. It picked up 304,554 GitHub stars between April 14 and October 18, 2026, over three times Ghidra's 90,126, and the rea.tools submission on Hacker News climbed to 808 points on October 10.I wanted to know whether the evidence holds up, so I ran

Securing Webhooks Between Netlify and a Home Automation Server

Tired of random webhook spam hitting your home-automation server? If you run an automation server at home to handle form submissions or data from a public-facing site like Netlify, you quickly realize that the open internet is loud. Anyone can scan your public IP or guess your webhook URL and flood your logs with garbage data—or worse, trigger unintended routines.Running my own website and automation server for Dream Futures Tech here in Pompano Beach, Florida, I needed a way to ensure that inco

Record Your Own Sound Button in the Browser: MediaRecorder, Silence Trimming and a Tiny WAV Encoder

Every soundboard eventually gets the same request: "Can I add my own?" Someone wants their own catchphrase as a button, or a short voice note they can replay for the group.Recording audio in the browser is easy to start and fiddly to finish. The first version records fine, but every clip starts with half a second of silence (the time it takes to press the button and start talking), ends with the sound of a finger hitting the screen, and comes out in a different format on iPhone than on Android.T

Fixing the Silent Killer: How Improper Server Actions Leak Secrets in Next.js 15

The Problem: Your API Keys Are Probably LeakingLast month, I traced a production incident back to a Next.js Server Action that accidentally bundled our Stripe secret key into the client JavaScript. The root cause? A seemingly innocent use client directive in the wrong file.Next.js 15 Server Actions are powerful, but the boundary between server and client code is subtle. One misplaced export and your secrets ride straight into the browser bundle.Here's what a vulnerable pattern looks like:/

Frontend Security: The Browser-Side Threats You Own

Export any crypto wallet to tax-ready CSV without paying per transaction

Most crypto tax tools charge you more as your wallet gets busier. Koinly and CoinLedger start around $49–199 per tax year, and per-transaction exporters like exportmywallet charge $4.99 per 1,000 transactions.

How a Scoreboard Keeps Responsive Layout and Game State in Sync

An online scoreboard is mostly buttons and numbers, but a useful one has to survive team changes, narrow screens, fullscreen mode, and accidental resets. I built the view with a small reactive team model and derived layout values, instead of storing every CSS position as mutable state. The team list is the source of truthThe initial state is plain data:const MAX_TEAMS = 18;const stepOptions = [1, 2, 3, 5];const teams = ref([ { id: 1, name: "", score: 0 }, { id: 2, name: "", score: 0 },]);
