Veteran developer shares TypeScript performance optimizations, advanced keyword usage, and practical tips.
Original link: https://juejin.cn/post/7272229204870660154 – This article differs from basic TypeScript introductions by focusing on performance, keyword advancement, and common techniques, clearly explaining the reasons and implementations for each example.
JSON is very slow, any faster alternatives? (https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz=MzkxNzY0MjA4Ng==∣=2247483761&idx=1&sn=2c7e2255e85851dae123a259c4cca59d&scene=21#wechat_redirect)
Thoughts: Although JSON is widely used, it can significantly slow programs due to inefficient serialization/deserialization. The author presents alternatives: Protobuf – Google’s binary format, reduces time/space, includes validation, but requires schema definition and is less readable. MessagePack – Compact binary format known for speed, similar to Protobuf. BSON – Binary JSON with length prefixes for faster parsing. Apache Avro – Hadoop subproject that addresses Protobuf’s inflexibility by not requiring upfront schema.
How to systematically learn reactive front‑end development?
Original link: https://www.zhihu.com/question/29275654/answer/3252885460 – Reactivity Graph provides front‑end developers a powerful tool for managing application state and UI changes, enabling more stable, efficient, and maintainable apps.

6000‑word guide: How designers can use Figma to triple productivity?
Original link: https://www.uisdc.com/figma-2 – Figma’s design philosophy mirrors CSS; with the 2023 introduction of variants, design components can be fully equivalent to front‑end components, and front‑end engineers should master Figma like designers.
Canvas series: Solving smooth drawing issues with Bézier curves (https://juejin.cn/post/7308575144925610036)
Canvas drawing performance can be optimized by reducing sampled points, though fewer points may reduce smoothness; using Bézier curves makes the result smoother.
