I'm building a "key-value database", with some features that probably will enhance the developer experience. Right now, local development benchmark called "works on my machine", the retrieval time for a standard JSON with average amount of data is .4ms
Ever notice how side projects evolve? They start innocently with a couple of services and a single database. Next thing you know, you've spun up 20 containers, integrated 3 different databases, and embraced 6 services. And then, the surprise bill: $100/month for a project still searching for its first user.
Keep it simple
Transitioning from clean code to real-world techniques means embracing practicality over perfection. It's about finding a balance between code elegance and meeting deadlines, all while delivering robust solutions. Let's evolve our coding practices for effectiveness and impact.
