A method of alphanumeric writing where the number represents the total letters between the first alphabet and the last one in the word.

"A well known numeronym in open-source project is “i18n” which stands for “internationalization.”"

when you keep coding stuff in a project that went outside the original plan

"We gotta make sure we plan ahead so there is no scope creep in this project."

Elasticsearch is a search engine based on the Lucene library. It provides a distributed, multitenant-capable full-text search engine with an HTTP web interface and schema-free JSON documents. - Wikipedia

"Many search-related features can be powered by an Elasticsearch index of an application's data, although it isn't recommended to use Elasticsearch as the source of truth."

Open-source software is computer software that is released under a license in which the copyright holder grants users the rights to use, study, change, and distribute the software and its source code to anyone and for any purpose.

"devterms.io is an open-source."

A monorepo, short for monolithic repository, is a version-controlled code repository that holds multiple projects. These projects can be related, but they are often logically independent and managed by different teams.

"Monorepos are used by companies like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Twitter, which host all their code in a single repository."

In the context of computers, the term ''shim'' refers to a piece of software or code that acts as an intermediary layer between two software components or systems. Shims are used to bridge compatibility gaps, provide backward compatibility, or enhance interoperability between different software modules or versions.

"A compatibility shim in operating systems, like ''Windows XP SP2 Compatibility Mode,'' emulates older system behaviors to ensure legacy applications function correctly on newer OS versions, avoiding compatibility issues."

In JavaScript, the Lexical Environment is a place where identifiers lives or are physically present during the program execution. \nTechnically, It is an internal hierarchical data structure of the JS engine that hold identifier-variable mapping. It consists of two main components: the environment record and a reference to the outer environment.\n

"When a function is executed, a new Execution Context is created, when an Execution Context is created, a Lexical Environment is created.\n\nVariables declared with 'var' are hoisted to the top of their enclosing lexical environment.\n\nThe Lexical Environment is a key part of understanding how variable and function scope works in JavaScript."

Static code analysis, or static analysis, is a software verification activity that analyzes source code for quality, reliability, and security without executing the code. Using static analysis, you can identify defects and security vulnerabilities that can compromise the safety and security of your application.\n

"If for example in some code like x=y/n , where x,y and n are integers. Here n has the possibilities of becoming zero i.e. n=0 and thus tests must be written such that we can realise the error even before going onto runtime. Thus static code analysis is required ."

ASO (App Store Optimization) is the process of improving an app's visibility and ranking within app stores like the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Its purpose is to increase the discoverability of your app and encourage users to download it.

"The languageXchange app developer implemented ASO strategies by using relevant keywords in the app title and description, resulting in a significant increase in their app's ranking and downloads in both Google Play Store as well as Apple App Store."

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft's first server-side scripting language and engine for dynamic web pages.\n\nIt was first released in December 1996, before being superseded in January 2002 by ASP.NET.

"ASP uses scripting on the server to generate content that is sent to the client's web browser via HTTP response. "
