January – 2020

Let’s get 2020 started with the right tools and trends

Choosing has never been harder

As web and mobile technologies evolve, a large number of surrounding tools, practices, and technologies find their way to the technologist’s toolbox, making it more difficult to decide what’s the best combination for each project.

This month we will give you some tips to avoid headaches as you either adopt a new stack or grow your current one.

This is is a curated list of books and articles that are potential eye-openers as you prepare your 2020 strategy.
