Hello everyone, glad to be here. I’m working as a Senior Software Engineer on a SaaS product I helped build from the ground up, including its A.I. features. I also run a small freelancing consultancy on the side and running my own AI Products. Happy to be here and looking forward to connecting with everyone.

After a month of building Profit Pilot's web app, I started working on the mobile version to keep both platforms moving in parallel. This is where most projects face a critical decision: 1. Build everything twice (double the time, double the cost) 2. Architect once, deploy everywhere I chose option 2—even with both apps still in active development. My approach: Instead of maintaining two separate codebases, I engineered a unified architecture that powers both platforms simultaneously with enterprise-grade scalability. The architecture: → Turborepo monorepo for lightning-fast builds and intelligent caching → Shared TypeScript types with strict type safety across all packages → Centralized business logic - write once, run everywhere → Platform-optimized auth (secure session cookies for web, JWT with refresh tokens for mobile) → Shared UI component library maximizing code reuse → Real-time sync between platforms using optimistic updates → Automated CI/CD pipeline deploying to both platforms simultaneously → Environment-agnostic API layer with consistent error handling The technical edge: → 70%+ code sharing between platforms → Type-safe API calls with auto-generated clients → Single source of truth for business logic and validation → Consistent user experience across all devices → One security audit, one performance optimization—both platforms benefit Tech stack:Next.js 14 (web) | React Native/Expo (mobile) | Turborepo | MongoDB Atlas | TypeScript | tRPC/REST API | React Query | Zod validation

Hey I am Gaven Tate I am interested in becoming a mechanical engineer my goal in this group is to learn how to make servers and software dealing with machines

Just wrapped up an incredibly energizing planning session with our talented development team. We spent the day mapping out the complete architecture of our next-generation platform - and I'm genuinely excited about what we're building. The Challenge: Create a scalable, secure, multi-tenant system that serves different user types seamlessly while maintaining data integrity and performance. Our Approach: User-centric authentication flows - Role-based access architecture - Intelligent payment processing pipelines - Real-time monitoring and analytics - White-label flexibility for enterprise clients What makes this special isn't just the technology stack - it's the collaborative problem-solving. Watching the team connect the dots between user needs, business logic, and technical constraints reminded me why I love building products. These architectural diagrams represent hours of discussion, debate, and collective wisdom. Every arrow, every decision point, every integration layer was carefully considered. Now comes the exciting part - turning these blueprints into reality! ⚡

While reviewing the TechCognify website, I noticed something interesting. The entire site was fast ⚡—except the reviews section, which was taking 10–15 seconds to load. Since the frontend was already optimized with Next.js, this immediately pointed to a backend-level bottleneck, not a UI issue. On inspecting the api/reviews endpoint, the root cause became clear: Images were being stored and served directly from the database, instead of an optimized media delivery service. This led to: - Heavy API payloads - Slow response times - A degraded user experience Fix:I refactored the media flow and moved image storage to an optimized external service. Outcome:Instant load times for reviews and consistent performance across the site. Key takeaway:Performance issues often aren’t visible in the UI.They’re the result of early architectural decisions, especially around media and data handling. Frontend optimization helps.Backend decisions define scale. #NextJS #WebPerformance #BackendEngineering #SoftwareArchitecture #TechCognify
