Passionated software engineering wizard 🧙‍♂️. I write software with heart and a little bit of magic.

@kentcdodds I want to replace all the data with fake data (maybe with fakerjs), and then I can store it savely in my version control. This would be ideal.

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds Yeah thats true, but I have to do it for every request for all of my components. I want something like MSW where I first record all or a lot of possible requests done by my app and then use the recorded requests and data for my tests. And then...

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds Thank you! But that means you have to know the datastructure and create the data by yourself. Exactly this time consuming task I want to avoid.

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds Do you have in your project test servers with test data without real customer data or do you filter the data at the frontend by hand / replace customer data with fake data?

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds Is there a possibility to fake all the customer related data, so it is safe (GDPR) for storing it in our version control?

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds I like these kind of tools and the hustle free mocking but: I am currently working on a big React project in the enterprise field. The company is in europe, so GDPR is a thing. Our dev server serves data from a database with real customer data in it. My question now:

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@maxlynch We at @pcode_at also struggled with this. There is a CSS pattern / best practice where you prefix your components with "Layout" when you want to add things like padding /margin.

Let me know if that helped you! 💪

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@thekitze Ahh I thought you made a new version because you wrote that you worked on it until 3:45 am. And I was wondering wtf you changed 😅

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@thekitze When you don't have any NY resolutions / bigger goals in your life how will you know what you should improve every day? 🤔

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@thekitze Why not both? You don't need a powerful laptop when there are existing such things like remote software where you can connect to your powerful PC at home. You just need a good and reliable internet connection 🤷🏻‍♂

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@kentcdodds @TestingLib Yeah! 💯 Do you or anyone know if they now support ts-jest for TypeScript support in your tests? In the past when I used CRA you had to eject to install ts-jest and to get it working. Or am I totally wrong?

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@thekitze You installed https://t.co/Q0Uwppn0Fs already?

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

@JesperBylund @thekitze I thought exactly the same bevor I went to the comments section 😂

Most common mistake software developers make: putting stuff in the wrong place. Coupling responsibilities and concepts that should be kept separate.

For me, this is 95% of software development. Just figuring out *where* things belong.

With these tips described in this great article you will definitely level up in your career. Must read!

"...the senior is thinking about the people who have to work with the code, while the junior is just thinking about making it work for the computer."

Focus on design patterns, writing code that humans can understand and help less experienced developers.

@dceddia Keep up the great work 👍

[Nico Peham @nicopeham]

Thank you @dceddia for this great article. If you want to learn more about immutability, the spread operator, the 'const' keyword and state update patterns this article will help you a lot. 💯

@kentcdodds If its the case that someThing() is a factory function for a object and it does not return a reference to this object I do not understand why foo should not be immutable?
