Introduction to modern Web development with Webpack 4

Are you familiar with developing apps and having to be careful to „include that script before your own because the application won't work“? Or have you ever used Webpack or similar solutions and wondered how they work? Here we will explore the concepts necessary to build an application from no setup code to the most common concepts. We will also see how Webpack relates to the other popular solutions like Parcel or task runners such as Gulp or Grunt.

Using Node.js with help of AWS to find a new apartment

These days it is very hard to find a new place to live in Zagreb through advertisement sites because every remotely good apartment get's taken fast. I decided to write a simple script in Node.js that would go to an advertisement page every 5 minutes and look for new ads. If there are any, it would compose an email and send it to me. I also used AWS Lambda services to achieve that.
