While we were building internal engineering tools at Hoomanely for visualizing telemetry from our IoT devices. Trackers capture motion and position data. EverBowls measure weight and behavior signals. EverHubs aggregate sensor data at the edge before cloud upload. All of this flows through GraphQL APIs into dashboards built on Next.

The Problem: The Blank Screen Dilemma Imagine this: A user opens your mobile app. They see a loading spinner. And they wait. And wait. Three seconds pass. Five seconds. In today's instant-gratification world, that's an eternity. Research shows that 53% of users abandon apps that take

AI assistants are becoming deeply embedded across apps, devices, and internal tools. They read context, recall previous turns, guide users through troubleshooting, analyze data, and invoke tools on behalf of the user. Yet the systems beneath them—models, prompts, routing layers, retrieval indexes, formatting logic, safety filters—are in constant

Mobile apps now depend on real-time camera pipelines more than ever. Whether you're scanning QR codes, running on-device AI, analyzing food labels, previewing AR overlays, or streaming video, smooth, uninterrupted camera frames are absolutely critical. But here's the catch: Mobile devices are unpredictable. CPU spikes, GPU

Picture this: You've just unboxed your new smart device. No screen, no buttons, no USB port. How do you tell it your WiFi password? This seemingly simple problem has frustrated IoT teams and users for years. The solution? Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) acting as a temporary bridge to

At small scale, an internal event bus feels magical. One team adds “user.session.started”, another listens and fires analytics, another triggers notifications. No coordination meeting, no new REST endpoints, just vibes. Fast-forward a year: You’ve got dozens of topics, half a dozen “user.*” events, multiple schemas for “pet.

Social feeds are the backbone of modern community apps—but they're also notorious performance bottlenecks. Users expect Instagram-level smoothness while scrolling through hundreds of posts, instant responses to interactions, and seamless offline access. The challenge? Delivering all of this without burning through device resources or overwhelming your backend.

Mobile apps don't live in the same world as web apps. They run on flaky networks, jump between Wi-Fi and 4G, go into the background at random, get killed by the OS, and are used on devices with wildly different performance profiles. If our backend API is designed

Modern smartphones are incredible content creation machines. They capture stunning photos and silky-smooth videos—but this power creates a significant challenge for mobile app developers. A single iPhone photo can be 12MB. A 30-second 4K video? Easily 150MB. When users tap "upload," they expect instant results, but backend
Software
Modern apps depend on instant communication between systems — payment gateways, shipping partners, analytics tools, marketing automation, and your own backend. Webhooks are the invisible mechanism that makes all of this work in real time. If APIs are pull-based (you ask for data), webhooks are push-based — the other system sends data
