Designing Applications
A good number of applications get into development phase and then to production with no proper design or architecture. My context of application would remain in the scope of web apps for most part of this article.
Immutability
I started a series on functional programming on the X-Team blog with a goal to make the perplexing functional paradigm in JavaScript fathomable. Immutability plays a vital role in creating pure functions for functional programming and it was only covered in brief.
