![Startup DevSecOps Security](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/4976/1*CnvEW0JO4Z-KIyi0ojDasQ.png)

Startup DevSecOps security is a development philosophy that integrates security measures into the standard DevOps routine, focusing on proactive security from the start to finish of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). It helps startups protect against cyber threats, save time, and reduce costs. Here are key points of DevSecOps:

**Importance of DevSecOps:** DevSecOps is crucial for startups because it minimizes the time spent on fixing security issues in software development, prevents costly security breaches, and lowers the workload.

**Benefits of DevSecOps:**

* Saves Money: It reduces the risk of costly security breaches and the need for a dedicated external security team.

* Protects Your Startup: DevSecOps enhances security during development, boosts ruggedness, and incorporates drills to identify vulnerabilities.

* Security Awareness: Developers become security-aware, contributing to more secure software.

* Reduces Legal Risks: It minimizes legal risks by building security into the software from the ground up.

**Reinforcing Security Culture:** Strategies to foster a security culture within your startup include periodic training sessions, creating an easy reporting mechanism, and conducting regular penetration testing.

**Best Practices for DevSecOps:**

* Prioritize container and microservice management.

* Incorporate vulnerability scanning into the development pipeline.

* Embrace automation for security tools.

* Ensure strong reporting practices for traceability, auditability, and visibility.

**Cost of Fixing vs. Preventing Bugs:** Preventing bugs through DevSecOps is more cost-effective than fixing them after they’ve caused issues in the software.

**Automation in DevSecOps:** DevSecOps security is automated, focusing on short and frequent development cycles, integrating security measures with microservices, and container technologies.

**Forward-Focused:** DevSecOps is forward-focused, allowing startups to adapt to new tools and technologies as they evolve.

Incorporating DevSecOps security practices from the outset can help startups develop robust, secure, and cost-effective software while minimizing risks and ensuring long-term success.
bun.js - Faster alternative for yarn

tldr; bun is faster than yarn (Personally...) and it helps reduce loads of time by installing faster. I am still trying to do gitlab ci install now 

I have been working on evolutions. From nodejs, v8 engine to yarn, pnpm and new kid in town "bun.js"

bun proves to steal the limelight and not just any limelight. When developers hate yarn everytime for slow installation,(again in ci personally..) bun does it in ease. 

Time taken for yarn install: 1 minute and 39 seconds
Time taken for bun install : 5 seconds

To counter argue, yarn v3 is improving the experience and what about pnpm. I get it. When you think of installing once and using it as runtime, test runner, bundler and total toolkit, well, I got convinced.

Onwards and upwards raising with bun :) Delicacy delivered
Move your tailwind's postcss.config.js to package.json to reduce config files
Tags: tailwindcss, tips
Published: 2023-09-14 07:09:03

When using only TailwindCSS with postcss in your app, you will see something like this in your `postcss.config.js` file:

```js
module.exports = {
  plugins: {
    tailwindcss: {},
    autoprefixer: {},
  }
}
```

If there is no other plugins needed, you can move this config to your `package.json` file like this:

```json
{
  "name": "test",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "build": "next build",
    "dev": "next dev",
    "lint": "next lint",
    "start": "next start"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "autoprefixer": "10.4.15",
    "next": "13.4.19",
    "postcss": "8.4.29",
    "react": "18.2.0",
    "react-dom": "18.2.0",
    "tailwindcss": "3.3.3"
  },
  "postcss": {
    "plugins": {
      "tailwindcss": {},
      "autoprefixer": {}
    }
  }
}
```

This is mainly aimed to make the root folder of your project cleaner with less unneeded config files.

Let the Tests Design
Tags: tdd, python, programming, architecture
Published: 2023-09-14 06:37:30

I'm currently building myself a personal cli, which helps me integrate coded automation into my daily routines. After some experiments, I though that my next implementation could be here to stay. That's why I started with TDD and after some coding I ended up with the following test for the entrypoint of my typer-app.

```python
@patch("main.get_config")
@patch("main.get_action_factory")
def test_create_action_with_factory(create_action_factory, get_config_mock):
    # Given
    action_factory_mock = MagicMock(spec=ActionFactory)
    create_action_factory.return_value = action_factory_mock
    config_service = ConfigService(action_path=DirectoryPath())
    get_config_mock.return_value = config_service

    # When
    result = runner.invoke(app, ["create-action", "new-action"])

    # Then
    result.exit_code == 0
    create_action_factory.assert_called_once_with(config_service.action_path)
    action_factory_mock.create_action.assert_called_once_with("new-action")

```

I thought it was a good to idea to let the shell entrypoint handle all the linking together, but there is a lot to mock. All this to answer whether the action_factory was called correctly.
So it's time to let the tests drive the design. I decided to pull out the service creation into a service factory.

![pulling out service container](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/q23w1ci8mdqh90n311jf.png)

After four commits I get the following code change

```diff
-    action_factory = get_action_factory(get_config().action_path)
+    action_factory = get_action_factory()
```

which allowed simpler test:
```python
@patch("main.get_action_factory")
def test_create_action_with_factory(create_action_factory):
    # Given
    action_factory_mock = MagicMock(spec=ActionFactory)
    create_action_factory.return_value = action_factory_mock

    # When
    result = runner.invoke(app, ["create-action", "new-action"])

    # Then
    result.exit_code == 0
    action_factory_mock.create_action.assert_called_once_with("new-action")
```

Looks way better. I'll follow up with some more coding done. Let's see what other decisions the tests designed.

## What is the Refactor Tractor? 🤔

We've all been there. You're working on a multi-year project, and you start to feel the itch to refactor everything. You look at the codebase and think, "I could make this so much better!" (How cute 🥹) That urge to refactor is what we affectionately call the "Refactor Tractor".

![coding meme](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/q3n39xbpfk56judn2wzj.png)

## Why Do We Jump On? 🤷‍♂️

The reasons are many: new technologies emerge, coding standards evolve, or maybe (we think) we've just become better developers. The temptation is real, but before you jump on that tractor, let's weigh the pros and cons.

## Pros 🌈

1. **Improved Code Quality**: Cleaner, more maintainable code.
2. **Better Performance**: Optimizations often come with refactoring (in your dreams).
3. **Learning Opportunity**: A chance to implement new technologies or patterns (the actual reason for buying a new tractor).

## Cons 😬

1. **Time-Consuming**: Refactoring can take a lot of time away from new features.
2. **Risk of Bugs**: Changing existing code can introduce new issues.
3. **Team Disruption**: Everyone has to get on board with the new changes, affecting productivity.

![Refactor meme](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/x3nfuh3snaxs7pe3ah52.jpg)

## How to Minimize the Urge 🛑

### Prioritize 📝

Not all code needs refactoring. Prioritize what really needs it and what can wait.

### Small Iterations 🔄

Instead of a complete overhaul, make small, incremental changes over time.

### Discuss with the Team 👥

Before making any major changes, discuss them with your team. A collective decision is often better than a unilateral one.

## When to Actually Do It 🕒

1. **When It Blocks Progress**: If the current architecture is hindering progress, it might be time.
2. **Tech Debt is Piling Up**: If you're spending more time fixing bugs than developing, take it as a sign.
3. **Team Consensus**: If everyone agrees that it's time, then it's probably time.

## Tips 🎩

1. **Automated Testing**: Make sure you have a good suite of tests to catch any bugs.
2. **Documentation**: Document what you're changing and why, for the sake of your future self and others.
3. **Code Reviews**: Get multiple eyes on the changes to catch issues early.
4. **Follow the Churn**: Prioritise refactoring components with a high churn and low maintainability.

## Conclusion 🎬

Jumping on the Refactor Tractor can be tempting, but it's not always the best course of action in a multi-year project. Weigh the pros and cons, consult with your team, and make disciplined decisions to ensure you're doing it for the right reasons.

How much does it cost to develop an iOS app?
Published: 2023-09-14 06:15:50

**Introduction**
If you’re considering developing an iOS app, you may be wondering how much it will cost. The truth is, there are many factors that can affect the **[cost of developing an ios app](https://www.digitalbrain.co.in/how-much-does-it-cost-to-develop-an-ios-app/)**, from the features and functionality to the experience level of your developer. In this post, We will break down all the factors involved in creating an iOS app and help you determine what kind of budget you should expect. So let’s dive in!. Being an **[iOS app development company](https://www.digitalbrain.co.in/best-iphone-ios-app-development-company/)**, we analyse the requirements of the business and fulfill them in every possible way.

**Factors affecting the development of iOS apps.**
Developing an iOS app is a complex process that requires careful planning and execution. There are several factors that can affect the development of iOS apps, such as the type of app, its complexity, and the level of customization needed.

Being a **[Digital marketing company in India](https://www.digitalbrain.co.in/)**, we have years of experience and we understand the business requirements and suggest the best way for development.
One major factor affecting iOS app development is choosing the right platform. Different platforms have different requirements, which means that developers need to choose one that matches their skills and expertise.

Another important consideration when developing an iOS app is scalability. Developers need to ensure that their code can handle large amounts of data without crashing or slowing down performance. This requires careful optimization and testing throughout the development process.

The design of an app also plays a crucial role in its success. A well-designed user interface (UI) not only enhances user experience but also makes it easier for users to navigate through different features and functionalities within the app.

Budget constraints can impact how much time developers spend on building an application’s functionality versus creating visually appealing layouts or improving UX/UI elements like animations or transitions between screens with higher quality graphics/animations which take longer than simpler ones.

These factors all play significant roles in any successful iOS application project – from start to finish!
Is there a better option than microblading?
Tags: microblading, eyebrow
Published: 2023-09-14 06:13:55

Whether or not there is a better option than microblading depends on your specific needs and preferences. [Microblading](https://facetheticsbeauty.com/best-microblading-in-delhi/) is a popular semi-permanent makeup technique for enhancing and shaping eyebrows, but it may not be the best option for everyone. Here are some alternatives to consider:

**Powder Brows:** This technique uses a machine to create a soft, powder-like finish on the eyebrows. It's a good choice if you want a more filled-in and defined look compared to the hair-like strokes of microblading.

**Micro shading:** Similar to microblading, micro shading uses a machine, but it creates a softer, more powdered effect. It's ideal for people with oily skin or those who want a less defined look.
**
Ombre Brows:** Ombre brows involve creating a gradient effect on the eyebrows, with a lighter color at the front and a darker color towards the tail. It gives a soft, natural appearance.

**Brow Tinting:** If you prefer a non-permanent option, brow tinting involves applying semi-permanent dye to the brows. It can darken and define your brows temporarily.

**Henna Brows:** Henna is a natural dye that can be used to tint the eyebrows. It offers a temporary solution with a more natural look.
**
Brow Pencils, Powders, and Gels:** These are makeup products that can be used to fill in and shape the eyebrows. They provide complete control over your brow shape and can be easily adjusted or removed.

**Eyebrow Extensions:** Similar to eyelash extensions, eyebrow extensions involve attaching individual brow hairs to your existing eyebrows. It's a temporary solution that can add thickness and length to your brows.

**Laminated Brows: **Brow lamination is a treatment that involves setting the brow hairs in an upward direction to create a fuller, bushier look. It's a temporary treatment that can last for a few weeks.

**Eyebrow Transplants:** For a permanent solution, some people opt for eyebrow transplants, where hair follicles are transplanted from one part of the body to the eyebrows. This is a surgical procedure and may not be suitable for everyone.

The best option for you depends on your desired outcome, your skin type, your budget, and your willingness to commit to maintenance. It's essential to consult with a professional and discuss your goals and expectations before deciding on any eyebrow enhancement technique. Additionally, consider your pain tolerance, as some methods, like microblading, can be more uncomfortable than others.
