An app that works as expected is great, but if expected means a beachball for 10 seconds before the page loads, that’s… not so great. Customers want it all; an application that is stable and fast… Luckily, Sentry does more than tell you when something is broken in your code, it also tells you what’s slow and how to fix it.
Founded in 2015 with a mission to “empower eCommerce businesses to deliver a top-notch customer experience,” Gorgias is a multi-channel eCommerce helpdesk service for small to medium businesses. Among their core values are ownership, excellence and a customer-first mindset, and CTO and co-founder Alex Plugaru understood from day one that, for engineering teams to be successful, the tools he set them up with had to facilitate that.
In the modern web, the JavaScript you write is often down-compiled using a compiler like Babel to make sure your JavaScript is compatible with older browsers or environments. In addition, if you are using TypeScript (like the Sentry SDK’s do) or something similar, you’ll have to transpile your TypeScript to JavaScript.
If you aren’t already fed up with doing the same boring stuff over and over again, you will In the long run. Tasks which are repeated again and again in the same manner, such as System administration tasks, such as uploading your codebase, adjusting settings, repeatedly running commands, etc. tend to sap the enthusiasm you experience when working on your project.
Have you ever had a tough time debugging your Python code? If yes, learning how to set up logging in Python can help you streamline your debugging workflow. As a beginner programmer, you’ll have likely used the print() statement—to print out certain values across runs of your program—to check if the code is working as expected. Using print() statements to debug could work fine for smaller Python programs.
This post is part of the MAUI UI July community series of blog posts and videos, hosted by Matt Goldman. Be sure to check out the other posts in the series! Hi, my name is Matt Johnson-Pint. I recently joined Sentry as an engineer working on the Sentry.NET SDKs. One of my first big projects was adding support for.NET MAUI, which we’ve now launched in preview. Go ahead, give it a try!
Developers started to notice just how big our JavaScript package was and yeah, we knew. We weren’t ignoring the issues; after all, we don’t want the Sentry package to be the cause of a slowdown. But to reduce our JavaScript SDK package size effectively we had to account for shipping new capabilities, like being able to manage the health of a release and performance monitoring, while maintaining a manageable bundle size. After all, new features == bigger package - usually.
In many critical areas, you can automate the completion of repetitive chores in an efficient and effective manner by using a computer language such as Python. When you are just starting out, it’s vital to understand the fundamentals of Python via coding examples. However, if you want to improve your Python skills, you should concentrate on constructing things and automating real-world tasks.

Nobody likes using an unstable mobile app or even worse, an app that crashes on them. In fact, 9 out of 10 US and UK consumers report uninstalling a mobile application due to poor performance. Crash rates and snappy experiences matter for all applications, but especially for mobile apps. Mobile app crashes and poor performance not only cause users to abandon an app but can also trigger the app to be ranked lower in Apple App Store and Google Play Store search results.
