Thriving in the Complexity of Software Development Using Open Sociotechnical Systems Design
The amazing progress made in technology has led to blindly following the technical imperative at the cost of the social and human dimension. Social sciences can help us create a work environment where people feel more at home and proud of what they produce. An organisation designed using open sociotechnical systems theory will be a more humane one where people are more engaged.

Deep Dive into Reactive Programming with RxJS
One of the most challenging aspects of developing any user-facing application is handling asynchronous actions such as user input and API requests cleanly and robustly. RxJS helps developers author declarative code for handling side effects and asynchronous actions with continuous data streams and subscriptions.

eBay's UI Framework Marko Adds Optimized Reactivity Model - Q&A with Marko's Development Team
Marko, eBay's performance-focused UI framework, features optimization strategies that are now becoming mainstream (e.g., server-side rendering, progressive and asynchronous rendering, partial hydration). InfoQ discussed with the Marko development team how those performance strategies may differentiate Marko from other frameworks and future performance-minded initiatives in their roadmap.

Pathpida Brings Types to Next.js and Nuxt.js Dynamic Routing with Zero Configuration
Pathpida is a library for TypeScript projects to collect dynamic routes in one place. It is a tedious task to do manually. This helps check the existence of routes in large web apps. Pathpida is optimized for Next.js (React) and Nuxt.js (Vue). Pathpida can be added to existing Next.js and Nuxt.js projects without configuration.

Boosting WebAssembly Performance with SIMD and Multi-Threading
Early implementations of WebAssembly's SIMD and multi-threading proposals show that WebAssembly is narrowing the gap with native performance, by using SIMD instructions and multicore CPUs. Significant performance improvements have been observed in compute-intensive tasks (machine-learning, bio-informatics, scientific computing).

Vue 3 Released with New APIs to Tackle Usage at Scale
Vue 3 recently shipped with numerous new APIs that cater to using Vue at scale and in non-DOM environments. New Suspense and Teleport built-in components and new CSS scoping rules make for a more expressive template language. Custom events and fragments allow Vue components to have a public API closer to that of regular DOM elements. The Vue ecosystem is finalizing its migration to Vue 3.
