My Development Predictions for 2023
As we approach the year 2023, the world of software development continues to evolve at a rapid pace. Here are some of my predictions for the key trends and advancements that will shape the industry in the coming year.
1. Increased Adoption of AI and Machine Learning
AI and machine learning have already been making significant strides in the field of software development, and I believe that this trend will continue to accelerate in 2023. As companies seek to leverage the power of data to drive better decision-making and user experiences, AI and machine learning will become essential components of software development projects.
2. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) Will Gain Traction
With the increasing demand for seamless and fast user experiences, I predict that the adoption of Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) will continue to grow in 2023. PWAs offer the best of both worlds, combining the functionality of a native mobile app with the accessibility of a web app. As more companies look to deliver high-performing and engaging applications, PWAs will become a popular choice for development projects.
3. Emphasis on Security and Privacy
As software becomes more interconnected and reliant on data, the need for robust security and privacy measures will become even more critical in 2023. Developers will need to prioritize security and privacy from the outset of their projects, incorporating best practices and technologies to protect user data and mitigate the risk of cyber threats.
4. The Rise of Low-Code and No-Code Development
The demand for faster and more efficient development processes will drive the rise of low-code and no-code development platforms in 2023. These platforms enable developers to build applications with minimal hand-coding, allowing for rapid prototyping and deployment. As organizations seek to accelerate their digital transformation efforts, low-code and no-code development will become an increasingly popular approach.
5. Continued Evolution of DevOps and Cloud-native Development
DevOps and cloud-native development have already transformed the way organizations build and deploy software, and I expect to see further evolution in these areas in 2023. As more companies shift towards cloud-based infrastructure and microservices architecture, DevOps practices will continue to be refined to support the seamless integration and delivery of applications.
Conclusion
As we look ahead to 2023, the world of software development is poised for continued innovation and growth. From the increasing influence of AI and machine learning to the rise of low-code and no-code platforms, developers will need to stay ahead of the curve to deliver compelling and secure applications in the coming year.
Too bad the eleventy 2.0 documentation isn't quite baked. Could that be the reason it's losing popularity? The official documentation isnt helpful as an entry point.. I like your eleventy 1 crash course which I just found. I had built an eleventy site and several jekyll sites..I was hoping for a new eleventy course to understand for example "eleventyNavigation." I will probably plod on with it and will continue with the crash course of 1 which is still helpful

Absolutely not interested in Sanity no matter how good it is. Talk about vendor lock in, no thanks. Besides, the page editors look crappy. Not a patch on WordPress Elementor or Brizy page builders.
Interesting summary! On the headless CMS front, very good points… what about Directus? Thanks for your video! (ah, sorry, taking that back, after just seeing how they have stripped out the self-hosting instructions from their GitHub Readme file, and everywhere else (docs, etc.) shamelessly pushing you towards the paid cloud version that prohibits any access to the underlying database itself. The only mention of self-hosting left is in the docs, where a stripped down dockerfile is briefly mentioned as the only self-hosting alternative). Yep, Payload looks like a great alternative, you are right!
Some thoughts about lume (eleventy-like for deno)?
