A while ago, I discovered Zoxide a tool which simply claims to be a smarter cd command. And indeed, since I’ve started using it everything feels smarter. It has changed my way to navigate in the terminal. The change was subtle and affects nearly all my daily work. So, in this article I want to give you a glimpse why I think everybody needs this and how I use it.

Spring has been providing a reactive web client for some time. Although this client provides many settings, not everything is so obvious and simple. For example, during development I often want to see exactly how the server is responding or ignore certain errors. For this I would like to configure the client in such a way that I can notice such errors and react accordingly.

As a developer, I always have to deal with various projects. Many of them differ significantly from each other, others are very similar or related to each other. However, what unites them is the fact that I had organized them poorly in the past. Later I started to think about the folder structure and to organize it better. In this article I would like to explain this organization to you and describe how I got there.
