Top 7 Featured DEV Posts from the Past Week

Every Tuesday we round up the previous week's top posts based on traffic, engagement, and a hint of editorial curation. The typical week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday, but don't worry, we take into account posts that are published later in the week.


@jacktt demonstrates how you can display your most recently uploaded DEV posts on your GitHub profile page by making a README.md file.
@k8adev agrees that tech events can be super fun. However, it's important to note that without adequate funding and support, it's impossible to provide a high-quality environment, good audio, and a competent team to hold an enjoyable event.
Get your software development to the next level with @drueda00! These 5 powerful principles of unit testing will ensure you'll be able to write lean, accurate, and easy-to-read testing code.
@bytebodger started using IIFEs recently, so they wrote up this article to help others who've never really grasped their utility.
Have you ever wanted to add type-checking to your Ruby code? Allow @cherryramatis to introduce you to type checking using the provided gem sorbet created by Stripe.
In this article, @sapegin talks about the reasons that led them to maintainer burnout, and to quitting open source after about ten years of contributing regularly, and publishing many projects.
We put a lot of time and energy into interviewing, so giving feedback is the least an interviewer can do. Here are some of @abbeyperini's tips for getting more of it.

That's it for our weekly Top 7 for this Tuesday! Keep an eye on dev.to this week for daily content and discussions...and be sure to keep an eye on this series in the future. You might just be in it!
