Hey folks! I've been thinking about contributing to this wonderful community for a while, but couldn't figure out how/where to start. Recently, however, when my team and I were discussing some of the underrated posts on here, I got this idea. So here are some of the most underrated posts on Dev.to from this past week.
1.All About End To End Testing
arnabroychowdhury explains the requirements and the right way to do end-to-end testing. This post goes into depth, covering not only the parameters involved in end-to-end testing and how it is different from system testing, but also the challenges faced while conducting it. A great read, especially for those of us new to testing.

2.Summary of Web Application Security Beginner’s Guide
Sunfire writes a nice little summary of the book “Web Application Security – a Beginner’s Guide” from Bryan Sullivan. She elaborates the key points of the book and what she learnt from book in a clear and concise manner. "For those of you like myself that aren’t quite security-minded by default, this is a great intro to thinking like the bad guys," as she puts it herself.

3.Tips to Improve Ionic App Performance
A thorough guide on how to improve ionic app performance by Boris Joskic.
The most recent version of Ionic, version 4, includes performance improvements, but in my opinion, it’s still having a tough time competing with the performance of native features such as file storage, camera, flashlight and many more.

I love Josh's article!
Maybe silly question but how do you do big headers up the top of posts? Didn't seem to say anything about it in the help.
You mean headers? dev.to/p/editor_guide#headers
It's using [1-6] hashtag
#
before textSuch as this one
Whoops, no I should have specified I mean big header images up above the first h1 # Header.
Edit: And I just found the answer! You click the "Images" button when writing a post, and there is a place you can load up cover images.
This is the cover image, in the front matter of the page!
It's in the first segment of the guide: dev.to/p/editor_guide
Minions😍😍♥️
Yeah😁🤩🤩
I visit dev.to everyday just to doing this (the frame rate in this GIF is reduced)
