It鈥檚 default, it鈥檚 how it鈥檚 been provisioned.
It鈥檚 not good.
This week is a bit less technical. Building a product does not mean programming 20h a day. There are a lot of activities not related to tech. One of those is giving people a chance to get to know you better.
That鈥檚 a difficult topic to talk about, so I鈥檓 glad you鈥檙e here 馃檹
Bon dia! Com est脿s? It鈥檚 been long two weeks. There was no post last Friday, because I was in Mallorca and I saw chickens.
But this week, we are back with another issue n煤mero tres. A lot was done, but even more still lies ahead. As usual, we added some QoL and pushed Teams closer towards completion.

RESTful API without HATEOAS is not a RESTful API by definition. The majority of developers refrain from using HATEOAS because it comes with extra complexity, its value is questionable and it鈥檚 not popular in general.
Let鈥檚 explore HATEOAS hands-on and see if those concerns hold. You will learn how to implement HATEOAS on the server side and the client side using libraries and get access to working code on GitHub.
Gzip compression is a way of making files smaller on the web, which can improve the performance and efficiency of your vert.x based REST APIs. However, it also has some drawbacks and trade-offs that you need to consider.
In this blog post, I will explain what gzip compression is, how it works, and how you can enable or disable it in your vert.x REST API. I will also discuss the pros and cons of enabling or disabling gzip compression in different scenarios.
