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.

Kickstart your next personal project

@unclebigbay walks us through setting up a Node.js backend project, connecting it to a database, writing your backend CRUD logic, and testing it using Hoppscotch. This thorough tutorial will help you kickstart your personal project and apply it in any backend project.

"You are not alone, and you are loved"

"We are not alone, not in the greatest chaos, nor in the most thorough systems of order we could imagine. Alone we will fail, but together we can achieve so much more, and that's a lesson I wish I had learned much earlier in my life."
-@baweaver ❤️

That's it for our weekly wrap up! Keep an eye on dev.to this week for daily content and discussions...and if you miss anything, we'll be sure to recap it next Tuesday!
