In modern web applications, real-time communication has become more than a feature: it's gradually evolved into a necessity. Users expect instant updates, live interactions, and dynamic content. In Rails applications, Action Cable has long been the go-to solution, harnessing WebSockets to fulfill these demands. In this article, we introduce: Let's get started!

As the wave of AI sweeps through the technology landscape, many have hopped on board. Interestingly enough, and often overlooked, is that many AI capabilities are served through APIs. Fancy user interfaces integrate with the actual mechanisms where the magic happens: the APIs. So, when generating revenue through AI platforms, the APIs drive the revenue.

In today’s digital age, citizens expect seamless interactions with government agencies, mirroring the efficiency and user-friendliness they encounter in the private sector. However, achieving exceptional citizen experience (CX) requires routine testing and close attention to software quality and performance. As agencies navigate the complexities of delivering digitized services, continuous automated testing (CAT) is a game-changer in enhancing CX while maintaining speed and reliability.
