Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

The 2025 State of JavaScript survey reveals a maturing ecosystem with TypeScript's dominance solidified—40% of developers use it exclusively. Vite surges in build tools with a 98% satisfaction rate, while React remains the top framework amidst mixed feedback. AI-assisted development grows notably, and Node.js stays dominant. Overall, developer satisfaction stabilizes at 3.8/5.

Morgan Stanley engineers Jim Gough and Andreea Niculcea showed how they're retooling the bank's API program for AI agents using MCP and FINOS CALM. Live demos covered compliance guardrails, deployment gates, and zero-downtime rollouts across 100+ APIs. First API deployment shrank from two years to two weeks. They also demoed Google's A2A protocol running alongside MCP.
