Spring Boot helps kick start your apps. Ken Krueger gave a Boot talk last night at GatorJUG. This was 2 solid hours that encapsulated what would have taken much longer to learn on your own. He uploaded his slides here:

Check tham out and decide for yourself whether you want to use Spring and Boot to begin your new app.
Ken pointed out that there are lots of tutorials at the www.gopivotal.com website that you can read in an average of about 15 minutes each. They're designed to be small bites that you can go over at lunch.
Thanks, Ken!
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.

Nuxt Test Utils has released version 4.0.0, which primarily integrates Vitest v4. This update changes the test environment setup to beforeAll, resolving issues with module-level mocks. It also improves mockNuxtImport for cleaner partial mocking and enhances state management for registered endpoints. The library remains vital for testing in the Nuxt framework, bridging unit and end-to-end testing.
