Practical articles by Anis Khalef on API design, debugging, security, AI, cloud architecture and mobile development.
AI Engineering
Turn an agent demo into a product with a clear promise, controlled actions, and measurable delivery.
Developer Tools
Use scaffolding to encode a clear project convention, while keeping framework rules and generated code under review.
Web Development
A retrospective on framework choices through the lens of rendering, data ownership, and the cost of operating real applications.
Cybersecurity
Follow data and permissions across the browser, API, and storage layers to find the security gaps between them.
Software Engineering
A repeatable debugging process that turns vague symptoms into testable explanations and durable fixes.
Cloud Architecture
Understand the operational boundaries behind serverless functions before moving production work into them.
Software Engineering
Maintainability comes from visible rules, clear ownership, and tests around behavior, rather than a perfect-looking folder tree.
API Design
An API becomes expensive when every consumer has to rediscover its rules. Design the contract around predictable outcomes and safe change.
Cybersecurity
Common security failures in MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js come from misplaced trust and overly broad update paths.
API Integration
Keep vendor quirks at the integration boundary with explicit validation, a stable internal model, and useful failure signals.
API Integration
Build integrations that slow down deliberately, recover safely, and tell users what is happening when a provider struggles.
Web Development
Choose state ownership before choosing a library, and stop the same fact from becoming several competing sources of truth.
AI Engineering
Connect an AI agent to existing systems through bounded tools, durable state, and explicit execution checks.
AI Engineering
Compare agent designs by their decisions, memory, tools, and coordination needs.
Mobile Development
Build a dependable ad integration around consent, test traffic, lifecycle handling, and a usable app experience.
Software Engineering
Distinguish a blocked event loop from a retry storm, gather evidence safely, and add a real progress condition to the failing work.
Mobile Development
Model purchases as verified entitlement changes that survive retries, interrupted sessions, and subscription updates.
