The posts here answer three different kinds of question. The first is which stack to pick. React against Next.js against Astro. Vercel against Netlify against Cloudflare Pages. Squarespace against WordPress against Webflow. A Turso guide that spends as much space on replication lag, the single writer primary, and the workloads where edge SQLite is the wrong answer as it does on setup. These are written to settle an argument rather than to praise every option, and several end in a decision matrix, because the useful part of a comparison is the constraint that rules one out.

The second thread is implementation. A step by step build of an Astro contact form that stores submissions in Turso and sends mail through Resend. A React performance case study that lists the changes in the order they were made. Posts on REST API design, progressive web apps, security headers and content security policy, and WCAG and ADA compliance, including why accessibility overlays do not fix anything.

The third is buying. How to evaluate a development agency, which questions to ask, and which answers should end the conversation. What drives the cost of custom work and how the common pricing models differ from each other. The difference between web design and web development, so you do not hire for the wrong half. How far AI builders such as v0 and Cursor actually get before a developer takes over. Several of the posts are in Spanish. If you came here for one decision, the comparisons are the fastest way in.
