This blog post will discuss MultiSite validation for either ContentArea or LinkItemCollection, which are both capable of storing multiple items. Although we can use the custom MaxItem attribute to validate the ContentArea or LinkItemCollection, the problem arises when the same property is used for multiple sites with different validation limits. In a recent project, we […]

You can think of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as USB for large language models (LLMs), allowing an LLM to interact with a variety of external systems in a uniform manner. It was developed by Anthropic to solve the fundamental problem of getting a text generator (LLM) to perform real-world actions on a user’s behalf. […]

Abstract In recent years, language models and AI have reshaped how we interact with data. Yet, a significant portion of business knowledge still resides in relational databases (highly structured but not exactly user-friendly for those unfamiliar with SQL). So what if you could query that data using natural language, as if you were speaking to […]

Imagine you’re building a React app where users can log in, get notifications, and change theme preferences. With traditional tools like Redux, managing all these states can be tricky. Lots of code, a complicated setup, and a steep learning curve. Now, with Jotai, you can handle all these states with very little code and setup. […]

Abstract We live in a time when automating processes is no longer a luxury, but a necessity for any team that wants to remain competitive. But automation has evolved. It is  no longer just about executing repetitive tasks, but about creating solutions that understand context, learn over time, and make smarter decisions. In this blog, […]

When using cloud-based event-driven systems, it’s essential to respond to changes at the storage level, such as when files are added, modified, or deleted. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) makes this easy by enabling Cloud Storage and Pub/Sub to talk to one another directly. This arrangement lets you send out structured real-time alerts whenever something happens […]

Angular Signals State Management is a new, built-in approach that simplifies state handling in Angular. Unlike RxJS or NgRx, Signals offer an intuitive, reactive, and efficient way to manage state with automatic dependency tracking and reduced re-renders. What Are Signals in Angular? Signals in Angular represent a new reactivity model that allows you to track […]
