Next topic: Validation and Transformation.
Another article in the backend series: medium.com/@anuragdotdev/val…
I wrote about what happens when data enters your backend and how to ensure your application handles it correctly.
Input validation, data transformation, Zod, Express middleware, the 400 vs 500 problem, mass assignment, database constraints, testing, and more.
I didn't want to write another article that just shows a Zod schema and calls it validation.
I wanted to understand the whole thing properly. From untrusted client input to validated data reaching the service and database.
It took me a while to put this together, but I wanted it to be something I'd actually want to read while learning backend development.
Everyone in AI right now:
1% building models
9% building actual products
90% tweeting about how AI will replace developers while asking Claude to fix their CSS 💀
Yesterday, I promoted my friend's website and my post just crossed 400K impressions.
the traffic it gave was insane
If you want more eyes on your app or website, let's collaborate. I can help you reach audiences across the US, India, and Japan.
Let's get your product in front of the right people.
I've attached screenshots of the website's Vercel analytics from when the post had around 200K impressions, so you can see the traffic data for yourself.

If you want your product to blow up, just pay @anuragdotdev to tweet about it.
Every product he tweets about gets anywhere from 10K to 500K impressions on X.
Contact him if you want to promote your product and get it in front of thousands of people.
hot take: vibe coding is exposing developers who were already bad at problem-solving.
if AI writes 90% of your code, that's not the problem.
the problem is when you can't explain why it works, spot when it's wrong, or fix it when it breaks.
writing code was never the whole job understanding what you're building still matters.
everyone wants to build the next big thing in tech
meanwhile, most people haven't shipped a single project without following a tutorial.
the gap isn't talent
it's how long you're willing to sit with a problem before asking AI to solve it for you.
BVCOE, it's done bro.
Well done, @harsh__coder bhai 👏
Colleges need to understand the effort students put into travelling, preparing, and participating in their events. It's disappointing when the competition feels unfair and the host college's own students end up winning under questionable circumstances.
Sadly, this seems to be happening way too often in hackathons and competitive programming contests.
Fair competition should matter more than college pride
The LiteLLM incident is a good example of why I think supply chain security deserves way more attention.
You can write secure code, follow best practices, and still get compromised because a package you trust gets compromised.
And it's not just about dependencies anymore. CI/CD pipelines, API keys, cloud credentials, build systems. There's a lot that can go wrong before your code even reaches production.
Most developers focus on building features. Very few think about what happens if one of their dependencies turns malicious.
That's the part that worries me
