Software Testing 101 - Artem Zakharchenko

In this new episode, Artem Zakharchenko creator of Mock Service Worker (MSW) and a Testing Instructor at Epic Web join me to break down why testing is the most valuable skill a developer can master. Artem argues that testing is an inseparable part of development, not a chore, and explains how to build trust in your code by writing effective tests. He tackles common developer frustrations, from the fear of over-testing to the headache of flaky tests, and offers his best-kept secrets for maintaining a high-quality test suite using modern tools like Playwright and Vitest. If you're starting your testing journey, dealing with brittle end-to-end tests, or simply looking to elevate your code quality, this conversation is essential viewing!

Vibe Coding , MCP and AI Agents - Rizel Scarlett

In this conversation, Rizel Scarlett joins me and dives into how AI is reshaping the way developers work. Rizel walks through what Goose actually is, why MCP matters, and how agents move beyond autocomplete into real autonomy. We get into practical workflows, how to keep agents from hallucinating, what tasks you should hand off vs keep for yourself, and why the Chrome DevTools MCP server changes the game. If you’ve been curious about agentic workflows, vibe-coding, or the future of engineering productivity, this episode lays it out in a way that actually makes sense.

Uniwind, Unistyles - Jacek Pudysz

In this episode, Jacek Pudysz author of Unistyles and Uniwind breaks it down with real clarity. We get into why styling feels scattered, what Uniwind and Unistyles are actually doing under the hood, and how performance and consistency shape the future of building for mobile. If you work with React Native, or you’ve ever fought with styling on a big codebase, this conversation will make you rethink the whole workflow. Simple, honest, and packed with insights that come from building the tools themselves.
