When we think of data applications, it’s easy to focus only on functionality, but what if we could merge analytical power with design that truly engages users? Learning to build Shiny apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript isn’t just about adding polish; it’s about reimagining how data stories are told and experienced. This course is designed to spark that shift in perspective: to see Shiny not as a static reporting tool, but as a canvas where interactivity, aesthetics, and insight come together to create something that resonates.

🌍 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗜𝗧: 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗮 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱 As technology leaders, we often talk about speed, scalability, and innovation. But there’s another “S” we need to prioritize: sustainability. At 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁, where our teams of Polish software engineers help global clients build the future, we’ve seen firsthand how IT can be both a driver of progress and a significant consumer of energy and resources. This is why the rise of 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗜𝗧 matters — not as a buzzword, but as a responsibility. Green IT is about more than energy-efficient servers or paperless offices. It’s a mindset — designing, coding, and deploying technology that minimizes waste, optimizes performance, and contributes to a cleaner planet. When we develop smarter systems, we can: ✅ Reduce energy consumption through optimized software and cloud solutions ✅ Support clients in adopting sustainable architectures and scalable infrastructure ✅ Use AI and automation to improve efficiency and cut unnecessary resource use ✅ Extend the lifecycle of hardware through responsible procurement and recycling Poland’s tech community has a tremendous opportunity here. With our engineering talent, we can lead the shift toward sustainable innovation — building solutions that are not only powerful, but purposeful. Because the future of IT isn’t just faster. It’s 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿. #GreenIT #Sustainability #TechForGood #SoftwareDevelopment #Outsourcing #PolandTech #Innovation

Finally had the time to polish and submit my patch series adding support for building Snagboot in Buildroot: https://lnkd.in/e72sZezD Snagboot is an open-source project launched by Bootlin 2 years ago to offer an open-source and platform-agnostic tool that allows to recover and reflash embedded platforms. It aims at replacing the countless vendor-specific and often proprietary tools offered by silicon vendors to use the USB or UART-based recovery protocols implemented by many system-on-chip ROM code. My colleague Romain Gantois has been doing a great job at creating, developing, improving and maintaining this project, which now supports NXP Semiconductors i.MX platforms, several Texas Instruments platforms, Microchip Technology Inc. platforms, STMicroelectronics platforms, Xilinx ZynqMP, Allwinner Technology platforms, and more are coming soon! It was time for Buildroot to have support for building/installing Snagboot out of the box, allowing Buildroot users to be ready to reflash their targets after they complete their build. Looking forward to seeing the review comments from Buildroot community!

Most Magento merchants still think Hyvä migration must be “all-or-nothing”. That’s not true. At Meet Magento Poland, I realized something surprising: 👉 Many merchants and even agencies don’t know that Hyvä theme can be rolled out page by page, not as one huge, expensive, long-running project. The reality: You don’t need to migrate the entire Magento store at once to start getting value from Hyvä. Thanks to Hyvä’s Luma fallback, you can: 1️⃣ migrate only the homepage first 2️⃣ then roll out Hyvä by page type, based on priority, for example: - product pages - checkout - category pages - CMS pages - account area, cart, etc. Why this approach is powerful: ✔️ Immediate ROI - performance, CRO & SEO benefits start from day one ✔️ Lower risk - no “big bang” launch ✔️ Flexible budgets - spread investment over time ✔️ Business-driven prioritization - migrate what impacts revenue first Such an approach has already been successfully used on many Magento stores. In practice, it’s usually done per page type, not per single page, which makes it even more efficient. Yet this approach is still massively undercommunicated in the Magento ecosystem. If you’re running Magento and: ✔️ want Hyvä performance without waiting months ✔️ want to improve conversion rate and SEO results step by step ✔️ want a migration strategy aligned with business impact, not just tech …then Hyvä doesn’t have to be a “one big leap” project. Happy to share real-world insights, pitfalls, and how to structure this correctly - feel free to comment or DM. #Magento #Hyva #HyvaTheme #MagentoPerformance #MagentoCRO #EcommerceGrowth #MeetMagento #ThoughtLeadership #MagentoAgency

Mjko GmbH, one of the top four German mushroom producers, has posted a series of videos on Facebook and TikTok to recruit mushroom harvesters from Poland and Romania. These videos feature the MycoSense AI Spotlight prominently, which is a great idea as it reassures candidates that modern tools are in place to help them get trained rapidly, and perform well. Mushroom harvesters are often paid by weight, so anything the farm can do to help pickers pick faster, while harvesting the right mushrooms, is a win-win. www.mycosense.com Mjko's recruiting videos: Tik Tok: Erklärvideo rumänisch: https://lnkd.in/dQZTR3QZ Pflücken ohne Voice Over, nur Musik (1): https://lnkd.in/dZR_m5Qg Pflücken ohne Voice Over, nur Musik (2): https://lnkd.in/dYfRbBE7   Facebook: Erklärvideo polnisch: https://lnkd.in/dEWWQXHu Erklärvideo Rumänisch: https://lnkd.in/dB4m5PNG Pflücken ohne Voice Over, nur Musik (1): https://lnkd.in/d8RBVPkT Pflücken ohne Voice Over, nur Musik (2): https://lnkd.in/dZtSqcJt

Yesterday under my post 🤟 Kamil Kiełbasa mentioned Vertical Slices Architecture. So let's take a closer look into it. You need to change a single field in a feature. How many files do you have to touch? An api endpoint, a service, a repository, a DTO, maybe more? That's a lot of jumping around. 😫 This is a classic symptom of organizing code by technical layers. There is a better way. Vertical Slice Architecture (VSA) flips the traditional layered approach on its head. Instead of grouping related files by what they *are* (e.g., "all controllers here"), you group them by what they *do*. Everything needed for a single feature, the API endpoint, the business logic, the data access, lives in one place. A single "slice." Your folder structure becomes a map of your application's features. With that approach you are getting: * High Cohesion: Code that changes together, lives together. * Low Coupling: Slices are independent. Changing one feature is far less likely to break another. * Faster Development: Less context switching and file navigation. You can focus on the feature at hand. It's a more direct and intuitive way to build and maintain applications. ⚡ Have you tried Vertical Slice Architecture? What was the biggest benefit you noticed? 👇 #DotNet #CSharp #SoftwareArchitecture #WebApi #VerticalSliceArchitecture

🔥 Most AI implementations fail within 6 months. Here's why — and what we're doing about it. After years of watching Czech SMEs throw money at AI tools only to abandon them, we finally understand the problem: They're treating AI as a tool, not as a transformation. Today, we're releasing something different: The FORGE CREATIVE Method — a proven framework for becoming truly AI-native, not just AI-enabled. What's the difference? AI-Enabled: ✗ Buying the latest AI tools ✗ Expecting instant productivity gains ✗ Technology-first approach ✗ Quick wins that don't last AI-Native: ✓ Partnering with AI as a capability ✓ Transforming how your business works ✓ People-first, sustained change ✓ Building competitive advantage that lasts Why this matters now: Your competitors are making the same mistakes you're tempted to make. They're buying tools. They're chasing automation. They're getting frustrated when ROI never materializes. But you can do something different. Our 5-phase method (Qualification → Discovery → Design → Implementation → Optimization) takes 6 months. Not 6 days. Not 6 weeks. Because transformation doesn't happen quickly. It happens correctly. Here's our promise: We won't take your money if you're not ready. We use a 28-question assessment to determine if AI transformation makes sense for your business right now. We work with you, not for you. Partnership, not service. We're based in Nový Bor. We understand Czech business reality. We speak your language (literally and figuratively). Who is this for? Czech SMEs with: 10-200 employees Leadership ready for real change Frustration with past AI attempts Willingness to invest 6 months in transformation Who is this NOT for? Companies looking for quick fixes Businesses expecting magic solutions Organizations resistant to change Anyone seeking just "another AI tool" Want to see the full methodology? Download our presentation here. Or start with our 28-question assessment: michael@forgecreative.cz Ready to become AI-native instead of just AI-enabled? Let's talk. FORGE CREATIVE Partnership over productivity. Transformation over transaction. #AITransformation #CzechBusiness #AIStrategy #BusinessTransformation #SME #Innovation #AIConsulting #Partnership

Dev teams often mistake surface polish for strategic clarity. ​​A sleek UI might win design awards, but if it’s built on shaky assumptions, it’s just an expensive mirage. If your idea is going to support real users, scale with your business, and withstand inevitable pivots, it needs more than aesthetics. It needs structure. It needs a blueprint. If a project kicks off without a validated plan that accounts for business goals, user needs, tech constraints, and delivery realities, things can go sideways fast. A presentation slide is made to sell an idea. A blueprint is made to build it. ❌ Slides don’t clarify scope. ❌ They don’t define trade-offs. ❌ They don’t align delivery teams with decision-makers. A blueprint does all of that and ensures that every hour spent building moves you toward something that works, lasts, and supports the business. At Mavric, we believe innovation should serve your business, not the other way around. Our role is to bring strategic thinking and technical expertise to your vision, staying grounded in your goals every step of the way. Strategy beats sizzle in every successful software build. Build it right, or don’t build it at all. Are you building from a blueprint or a pitch deck? #productstrategy #softwaredevelopment #digitaltransformation #buildbetter

I'll elaborate a bit about the processes in motion and why i think the public market will change beyond recognition in the next few years. Mostly software, highly automatable processes that are today controlled by companies will loose profit margins and will find it impossible to charge users for services on the process of becoming cost + 0 The effective cost of starting, and running a new business is in the process of being massively reduced hence the venture capital eco system is going to be all but gone The public markets will stop being a relatively easy way for raising money, and making money for these companies, hence VC industry will become even less lucrative, and the model will dramatically change - or die As most VCs horizon is 10 years - i wouldn't bind my future with that industry in any way Services will become cost + 0 as because anything that can be automated - will be automated. And likely someone someone will develop the service for cost, using other services for cost. Costs will keep on reducing as demand will rise (think of LLM token prices) So if software services are provided at cost + 0, there's nothing to compete about. Nothing to disrupt. and they keep getting better b/c LLMs keep getting better. so who wants to start a company and compete with zero profit margins? there are no profits, so zero justification for public companies valuations, or multipliers. or to buy their stocks - because there will never be dividends, or any way to get your money back... Do you hear me Dave? Dave? Dave?....

Being a software developer has its perks This Chanukah, I was reminded of one of them. With some dev experience and today’s AI tools, it’s possible to spin up something small, quickly, just for fun. Not for scale. Not for polish. Just to enhance a moment at home. That’s how Wheel of Torah came about. It wasn’t fancy. Not polished. Definitely not bug-proof. But it ended up creating something really special for us. We played with real money, actual Chanukah gelt. This was how we did our Chanukah gelt giving this year, and it made the whole tradition feel more alive and fun. We spun the wheel, solved puzzles, and every spin counted. We even set a respectable house minimum so no one walked away empty-handed, which somehow made it feel even more exciting and a lot more fair. The puzzles themselves weren’t just “guess the phrase.” They were short statements with meaning, values, and depth, ideas you naturally end up talking about, not just solving and moving on. That double benefit surprised me, real engagement and fun for the kids, and moments of reflection that stayed with everyone in the room. I’m very aware the design isn’t tip-top shape, and it wouldn’t survive a serious QA process. But it did exactly what it needed to do. It brought new meaning to in-house software, software made for the house itself, built for home and connection. This is one of the underrated perks of being a developer today. You can spin up something small, quickly, and use it to enhance real moments with family, moments that actually matter. If you’re curious, you can try it here: https://lnkd.in/g5-Kvtbe And if it sparks an idea for something you’d like to build, even if it’s a little rough around the edges, that’s kind of the whole point.
