Angular developers are going to enjoy "Boost Angular’s Performance by Lazy Loading your Modules" by Chidume Nnamdi while their React colleagues can learn a lot about "Managing Derived State from Props in React" by "RC".

Let's talk about how we handle errors. JavaScript provides us with a built-in language feature for handling exceptions. We wrap problematic code in try...catch statements.
