Exploring TypeScript Interfaces: Methods vs. Function Properties

Exploring TypeScript Interfaces: Methods vs. Function Properties

Typescript, as a superset of JavaScript, enhances JavaScript’s capabilities, including the way we define object structures. We’re going to delve into a common misconception: What’s the difference between method signatures and function property definitions in TypeScript interfaces? We’ll break it down with some examples, and explain the subtle differences between these two ways of declaring a method in an interface: 1interface MyInterface { 2 myMethod(): void; // method 3 myMethod: () => void; // function 4} Defining methods in interfaces In Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), methods are the behaviours classes....

Learn AdonisJS pt. 1

Learn AdonisJS pt. 1

Just like many other Node.js backend developers, I spend most of my time building REST API’s with Express.js. It’s a small, very easy to use HTTP library with a huge amount of middlewares and awesome, large community around it. But I didn’t enjoy working with it. Something was missing. Express.js is just a small HTTP library. It accepts requests and returns responses. No matter how well it does it’s job, applications I write are rarely just accepting requests and sending JSON responses....

Back in 2017, I was still in college. It was boring and I didn’t learn much. I came to the conclusion that writing PASCAL and C on a piece of paper isn’t going to do much for my future, so I decided to try my luck in the real world. I lived in a small city in a small country in South Eastern Europe. There were a total of 3 (three) mid-sized companies in the entire city that employed all the programmers in the city....

No, you do not have to use Mongodb with Node.js

Vast majority of beginner nodejs tutorials use mongodb for the database. For simplicity sake, this is fine for beginners. It saves them the hassle of dealing with SQL table relations, so they can just stick any data in and get it out to render it on the page. So, you need to persist some data After learning the basics of building apps with Node.js, you may decide to build an app on your own....

Difference between var, const and let

Difference between var, const and let

There are 3 ways to declare a variable in Javascript: using one of the keywords var, const or let. Prior to ES6, var used to be the only way to declare a variable. You had no other choice. However, it had some weird and unexpected behavior, which often resulted in hard to debug errors. Intuitively, you would think variable declared with var is block scoped. Variable declared in, for example, if statement, or a for loop, is visible only in the scope of that statement or loop....
