When you design a microservice system, there are some key topics and tools you should be familiar with. Designing a successful microservice system differs from developing a successful monolithic application in several key ways, and the better understanding you have of these differences the better you’ll be able to ensure that your environment is reliable, secure, and consistent. In this article, we’ll discuss eight topics that NodeJS microservice developers should be familiar with.

When it comes to Node.js design patterns, microservices are useful patterns that can improve the flexibility and reliability of applications. However, microservice architectures must be carefully designed, as they can create roadblocks and inefficiencies that reduce team velocity.

RxJS and React go together like chocolate and peanut butter: great individually but they become something incredible when put together.

Often times, particularly when dealing with complex nested data, React developers need to re-think the way they're structuring their component trees. In certain cases, when the data requires it, component trees can't be rendered in an iterative fashion, instead React developers must rely on recursion to display their data.

These icons can then be added to documents on a computer as a font, or used in your stylesheet to display the icons online or in an application.
