A slight pivot in the airgap bundler tool MVP to add SBOMs.

This weekend has been a breakthrough—not necessarily in pushing my tools forward for the community, but in expanding my knowledge. I discovered Refine, and it is honestly a game changer (for a backend developer like me). It lets me scaffold React projects with a robust, reusable architecture, perfect for developers and solopreneurs. Instead of wasting time reinventing the wheel, you get a clean structure right from the start. Combine this with Docusaurus in a mono-repo setup, and you've got limitless potential. The combination of these two can redefine how we manage documentation and dashboards in our projects.

That said, I'm going to dedicate another weekend (and nights) to improving the airgap bundler MVP or SABOR (flavor in Spanish, Software Airgap Bill of Materials Resolver) as I like to call it (check the demo video below 👇🏻). I have decided to pivot slightly, the community has given great feedback so far, but after thinking it through, I realized tools like Skopeo and Crane might already be top choices for many. And while the CLI MVP has gotten positive reception, we all know the problem with CLI tools—they are great until you're swimming in flags and options that are impossible to remember.

Software development is a dynamic field that constantly evolves with new technologies, tools, and practices. To understand the current state of software development, Stack Overflow conducts an annual survey of developers worldwide. The 2024 survey, featuring over 65,000 participants from 185 countries, provides valuable insights into the trends shaping the industry. This article explores the key findings of the survey and what they mean for developers and the future of software development.

Ever wondered how some people seem to know so much about so many different topics and tools? A couple of my friends have asked me this, especially considering the variety of things I juggle daily at work. Some have even asked me if I have a twin or a clone, or if I ever sleep. The truth is, I'm just a regular person who's passionate about learning and growing. I'm always looking for new ways to improve my skills and knowledge.

Here's my secret: I don't wait for my employer to invest in my professional growth or pay for certifications. Sure, they might provide some learning resources, but those are often too generic. Real learning requires diving deeper, getting your hands dirty, making mistakes, making big efforts, and sometimes sacrificing things like sleep.
