Today we talk with Dillion Megida, a developer advocate and content creator originally from Nigeria, but living in the Netherlands.  We discuss his blog article about the aspect ratio property in CSS.  Much of his effort at a developer advocate is writing articles and creating video content to promote the products for Stream, where he currently works.  He gives us his insight on preparing for and pursuing the developer advocate role at a company.  We also discuss debouncing in JavaScript, which helps to reduce unnecessary expression executions.Sponsors Top End Devs Coaching | Top End Devs Links Dillion Megida - Developer Advocate The Aspect Ratio Property in CSS - Dillion's Blog Tailwind UI Kit - The most loaded tailwind css UI Kit on the planet JavaScript String Comparison - How to Compare Strings in JS Dillion Megida Instagram: dillionmegida  Twitter: @iamdillion  Picks Dillion- Amazon.com : air fryer  Jack- Discord - A New Way to Chat with Friends &amp; Communities  Jack- Pizza Ovens | Make Pizza | Ooni Pizza Ovens  Paige- Instant Read Thermometers  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy &amp; Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

CSS Properties with Dillion Megida - RRU 189

In today’s episode of React Round Up, Nigerian-based developer Dillion Megida explains how you can create source plugins for Gatsby, the static site generation tool.
