2025 was my most active public speaking year to date, and I still feel proud and grateful for every event I was invited to.

Masking Technology Design System Example
Finally found the time to open-source and publish our design system, which we use for quickly building simple UIs.

A new "Getting Started with Jitar" video is out! ๐ฅณ
In this video, we show how to secure a full-stack application running on Jitar using its built-in security features and middleware.

"Now we have AI, do we still need to hire experienced developers?"
With modern tools everyone can "code". Within the right context, that's perfectly fine. Outside that context, it's a risk.

Beyond architecture, the programming paradigm we choose shapes how easily we can write, maintain, and evolve code.
In the article, I share a simple, rule-based framework we use to blend paradigms for creating code thatโs easy for humans to understand and maintain, yet ready for AI support.
Just released the next "Getting started with Jitar" video ๐ฅณ
In this video, we show how to scale a full-stack application using nothing but configuration, thanks to Jitarโs services. Scaling your app has never been this simple.

Weโre turning our trainings into online courses! This video introduces our practical course on microservicesโcutting through the hype and confusion to show how they really work.

We've just released the getting started video of Jitar, explaining the installation and creating a scalable full-stack app from a template.

@petermasking.bsky.social and I are creating a new version of our #jitar introduction video.
It's fully generated from Google Slides with a few #python scripts that transforms the slides into an animation and add a voice-over using #ai
This is what we have so far...
Yesterday, @basmasking.bsky.social and I returned from the What The Stack Conference (@wts.rocks) in Skopje, carrying home great memories and new connections. ๐
The audience was full of energy, which made it a real pleasure to speak to them, even right after a fantastic lunch!
Today's animation:
"Jitar provides tools for cutting full-stack monolithic applications into distributable bundles based on configuration, and deploying them across web browsers and servers."
Continuing animation: zooming into the runtime to see inside.

I just received the news that my article series, โThe Anatomy of a Distributed Runtimeโ, has been featured in In Plain Englishโs JavaScript publication! ๐ฅณ
The series can be found here: medium.com/javascript-i...
In two weeks, Iโm honored to be speaking at the Digital Architecture Day event for the second time!
This time, Iโll introduce and demonstrate our adaptive architecture style that allows switching between a monolith and microservices without changing a single line of code.

I love abstractions, but I also fear them. Good ones reduce complexity, while bad ones add it.
Telling them apart isnโt always easy, so avoidance is the widely accepted guideline.
Since I couldnโt find a practical, unified source, I decided to create one.

The fifth (and final) part of my article series "The Anatomy of a Distributed Runtime", is now available!
This part ties everything together and ties up all loose ends.

I hope this interaction is AI-powered...
Anyway, it reminds me of this comic.
The fourth part of my article series, "The Anatomy of a Distributed Runtime," is now available!
In this part, I explain how the execution process discussed in the previous part is encapsulated by services that enable distribution.

Just created my first scale-when-needed full-stack app example with server-side rendering using @solidjs.com and Jitar.
Aside from the manual build steps (which I'll automate), this combination is very powerful!

The third part of my article series, "The Anatomy of a Distributed Runtime," has just been published!
In this part, I explain how the distributable bundles discussed in the previous part are loaded and executed.

A software architect and full-stack developer with over 20 years of experience.
Peter helps companies build cost-efficient, future-proof applications. A frequent speaker at tech events across Europe, you can now catch him live in Skopje at What The Stack!
As of now, the second part of my article series "The Anatomy of a Distributed Runtime" is also live!
In this part, I explain how we split monolithic applications into distributable bundles.

I couldn't be happierโthis is the conference for fullstack JavaScript development, making my talk, "๐๐ฒ๐ณ๐ ๐๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ต๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐น ๐จ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฟรถ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐ฟ'๐ ๐๐ฝ๐ฝ" a perfect fit.
