I spent some time over the holidays working on an Android app for myself to track collectibles, so I decided to ship it to the play store (it's still in beta mode though!) 🚀 getcubby.co

Let's talk GraphQL error handling!
Do you model your errors as data? Or put them in the "errors" array? Or something else?
Community member @HiThereJoe is improving the official documentation. Let's write all of this down!

This weekend I've been hard at work on my next book, Practical Kotlin Multiplatform. I'm super excited about this one - I love the balance of enforcing consistency while still enabling Native UI and other patterns. Learn more here 👉 practicalkmp.com/ #KotlinMultiplatform

This week, we hit our all-time-highest ARR at @buffer 🥳
Our previous all-time-high was in February 2020 and following that, we saw it dip. It's been amazing to see the team navigate this and work hard at getting back on track, hitting this new milestone 5 years later!
