While refactoring a section of our React app at HealthTree I stumbled upon a common use-case where a parent route/component could potentially share (part of) his data context with his children components, something like: | <Route path> | Component | API call…

Our main goal with Sundly is to empower people by owning and being in full control of their personal health records. One of the items in our public roadmap was to have a way to import medical records from existing apps, such as as Apple Health. Among other features in our backlog, we asked Twitter for feedback on how to prioritize the development: We’re please to announce a MVP version of such functionality, check out the following video or the steps ahead:

We recently had a 3-day Design Sprint at Ecaresoft. The challenge was about tackling the prioritization of incoming bug fixes, feature requests, technical support, etc… (psst… want to learn what a Design Sprint is? check this out: https://designsprintkit.withgoogle.com) Naturally, there are already existing solutions in this particular space, like ZenDesk…

At Nimbo X we use Trello to keep track of our Kanban development pipeline. We needed a way to track the card velocity/cadence of our development team. Unfortunately most existing products weren’t free and offered much more functionality. The ones free were outdated or mediocre at best. I remixed a Trello card velocity trackerusing Glitch. I’m very impressed how easy it was, definitely feels like the future for collaborative coding & quick hacking.

TL;DR; In this post I show how I built a serverless CMS/Blog system based entirely on free and modern PaaS services such as Airtable, Glitch (formerly Gomix, Hyperdev) & Surge.sh. The end result is: You can visit it at: http://caring-eggs.surge.sh/ And check out the source code: Frontend: https://github.com/benoror/experiment_blog_xt014_d Proxy: https://github.com/benoror/proxy_blog_xt014_d…

Recently at Nimbo X we realised our end users would greatly benefit from having a “Desktop-like experience” when using our app, so we set ourselves to produce a first version of it. In this post we’ll explain our experience from a technical point of view. Download it now for OS…

Una de las primeras preguntas que nos hacemos como developers después de aprender lo básico de un framework front-end como Ember es: Cómo creamos aplicaciones para problemas reales, con un backend y una base de datos como cimientos que nos permitirán escalarla? Ember Data es una capa de abstracción…

This is a pet-project I worked on during the Hack Week (July 13–15th) at eCareSoft. It emerged from a casual chat between Jorge Camargo and I discussing ways to achieve dynamic forms for different medical specialties at Nimbo X, while keeping it simple and easy to maintain.

My previous experience with search in Rails was 5+ years ago, then I used Sphinx as a Full-Text external search engine, which seems to have gone out of fashion. At Nimbo X we use pg_search rails gem for searching purposes, with Full-Text already enabled in PostgreSQL itself, which has worked…
