Learn the different methods to break out of a for or for..of loop in JavaScript. Imagine you have a for loop like this: const list = ['a', 'b', 'c']; for (let i = 0; i < list.length; i++) { console.log(`${i} ${list[i]}`); } If you want to stop the loop at a specific point, for example, when you reach the element ‘b’, you can use the break statement: const list = ['a', 'b', 'c']; for (let i = 0; i < list....

In this blog post, we will discuss how to build a small web crawler using the Go programming language. The purpose of this web crawler is to check if your website has duplicate page titles, which can be detrimental to your SEO efforts. To start off, we will use the golang.org/x/net/html package, which is not part of the standard library but is maintained by the Go team. This package provides us with the necessary tools to parse HTML content....
In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of building a simple counter using React. Not only will we cover the implementation, but we will also ensure that our code follows SEO best practices. To get started, we will be using Codepen. You can begin by forking the React template pen. In Codepen, there is no need to import React and ReactDOM as they are already included in the scope....
If you find yourself in a situation where you need to convert a folder structure like this: posts/test/index.md posts/hey-cool-post/index.md into this: posts/test.md posts/hey-cool-post.md where the folder containing an index.md file is removed, and the post slug is used as the file name, you can accomplish this using a Node.js script. Below is an example script: const fs = require('fs'); const glob = require('glob'); const rootFolder = '.'; // search in the current folder glob(rootFolder + '/**/index....
When working on a Next.js-based website, you might encounter the need to fetch data from an API at build time. In this article, I’ll share a solution that works both in development (localhost) and in production (Vercel) environments. Let’s consider a scenario where we have a list of “members” and we want to download this data once, store it, and make it available across all pages. The list of members is relatively static and changes at most once a day....
If you are working with JavaScript and need to calculate the number of days between two given dates, you can use the following function. This function takes two JavaScript Date objects as parameters and returns an array of Date objects, representing each day between the two dates. const getDatesBetweenDates = (startDate, endDate) => { let dates = []; // initialize an empty array to store the dates const theDate = new Date(startDate); // create a copy of the start date to avoid modification while (theDate < endDate) { // add the current date to the array dates = [....
When working with dates in JavaScript, you might come across the need to calculate the number of days between two dates. This can be particularly useful, for example, when determining the duration of a rental stay based on the check-in and check-out dates. After exploring different solutions, I found a reliable approach that takes into account common date-related issues, such as Daylight Saving Time (DST). The method involves incrementing the start date by one day until it exceeds the end date....
Capturing screenshots on a Mac is a common task, often accomplished by using the key combination cmd-shift-4. However, if you have recently upgraded to a higher-resolution display, such as the Studio Display with 5K resolution, you may notice that the size of the screenshots has become quite large. By default, macOS saves screenshots in the PNG format, which can result in file sizes as large as 10MB, depending on the contents of the screenshot....
