Hi TechTwitter 👋. I'm Tochukwu, a frontend developer skilled in React, Next.js, Tailwind, Node.js and TypeScript. Building projects, learning in public, and sharing my journey. Excited to connect with other developers and tech builders! 🚀.#TechTwitter #BuildInPublic.

Frontend dev isn't frontend anymore. With Server Components, layouts, and streaming in Next.js, you're handling infra-level problems inside JSX. You're not just styling buttons. You're making architecture choices. Ignore the shift, and you’ll be left behind.

I built TechLinkup because finding tech events near you shouldn’t be this hard. No logins. No paywalls. No friction. Just search, filter, and go straight to the official site to register. Too many great events go unnoticed. This fixes that.

Founders love to plan for scale before they have users. They build for 10,000 before reaching 10. Overbuild. Delay. Never launch. You don’t need the perfect system. You need a working product that someone actually touches. Scale is a good problem. Get there first.

Just deleted my resume from LinkedIn and got hit with this toast:.<strong>Tochukwu Nwosa_Frontend_CV.pdf</strong> is deleted. Guess even billion-dollar platforms sometimes forget to render their HTML 😅.#frontend #webdev #ux

RT @ErnestoSOFTWARE: 52 Startups in 52 Weeks. Sometimes life humbles you. About 9 weeks ago, . I started the craziest project of my life:….

thought coding with AI would stop me from learning. Then I spent hours trying to resolve a bug. Google and Stack Overflow didn’t help. I pasted it into ChatGPT. It found a typo. AI didn’t make me lazy. It saved me from wasting time on the stuff that doesn’t teach you anything.

I used to avoid asking senior devs for help. Thought it would make me look unprepared. But when I finally did, things moved faster. Stuff I was stuck on? He’d seen it before. Lesson: ask early. You’re not bothering anyone. You’re wasting time by staying quiet.

Startups love clean UIs. But good design isn’t about looking good. It’s about being usable. If people can’t figure out what to do, it doesn’t matter how pretty it looks. Stop chasing aesthetics. Fix the flow. UX is the product. Nobody sticks around to admire.

My days used to feel chaotic. I was always reacting, switching tasks, and missing deadlines. Then I started writing my daily tasks on paper. Now I stay focused. No missed deadlines. Fewer distractions. The fix wasn’t an app. Just a small habit that worked.

Mistake: When my app slowed down, I increased Vercel’s serverless timeout. Lesson: It worked — until the app grew and returned huge user docs with base64 images. Advice: Code-split, send only what’s needed. Quick fixes help, but scale needs real structure.

Trend: More clients ask for fast results but give little direction. Insight: The problem isn’t speed. It’s unclear goals. Application: I ask more questions at the start. It feels slow, but it avoids messes later. Speed only helps when the goal is clear.

Unpopular opinion about learning to code:. It’s not that hard. If you stay consistent, you’ll improve. It’s like swimming. You don’t become great in a week. You show up. Try different strokes. Some days it clicks, some days you sink. Keep going, and it gets easier.

I thought I needed to write complex logic from scratch. Turns out, I just needed a solid library or a simpler approach. Tried building it myself, hit a wall of bugs and edge cases. Used a well-maintained tool instead — and it worked. Lesson: practical beats clever.

I tried slowing down — and I got more done. I was coding nonstop, thinking speed meant progress. So I started taking real breaks. Not long ones — just enough to reset. I thought I’d lose momentum. Instead, I came back with focus and clarity. Slower = smarter, sometimes.

Old me: Freeze when stuck. Stare at the screen. Open more tabs. New me: Ask for help, simplify, or take a break. What helped? Time, side projects, and a few people who reminded me that being stuck isn’t failure. It’s just part of how progress works.

18 people from 9 countries visited in the last 24 hours. It’s a small thing, but it means something. Someone out there clicked. Looked. Maybe stayed a while. Quiet progress. I’m building this with care. Thanks for being curious.

Two types of founders:. Type A: “I just need you to build this.” No context, no back-and-forth. Type B: “Here’s what I’m thinking, does it make sense to build?” They ask, listen, and treat devs like collaborators. Which one are you?.

I use this 3-step process to learn any new framework:. 1) Watch a short YouTube video. 2) Skim the docs for basics. 3) Build a small project right away. It saves time and avoids tutorial hell. I’ve wasted too many hours trying to “learn properly” instead of just starting.
