How Productboard monitors frontend applications

Now comes the choice — loading spinner or loading skeleton.

How we measure adoption of a design system at Productboard

Building a design system without knowing how it is used can be very tricky, and even the simplest of questions can be hard to answer. Do you know how often your components are used? Can you remove deprecated components from the code? What is the adoption of your design system?

Countering microservice disasters

At Productboard, we’re adopting a service-oriented architecture for two reasons — to enable faster decision-making in empowered teams and allow us to staff quicker by adding two more stacks into the mix we develop in.

Scaling monorepo — to infinity and beyond!

One interesting thing I have observed over time is that open-source solutions tend to struggle with bigger code bases. That’s when custom tooling comes into play — or not necessarily. The truth lies somewhere in the middle.

While I did this for many reasons, one of them was particularly striking: To empower product teams to make high-impact changes, enable and support innovation, and share our learning across the frontend community.
