• Highlights from Git 2.48 - the open source Git project just released Git 2.48. Here is GitHub’s look at some of the most interesting features and changes introduced since last time.

• The Complete Node.js Backend Development - There is no prerequisite to read this blog if you know JavaScript a little bit. Everything is written for complete beginners, but that will take you to an intermediate level.

• JavaScript Performance Tips - These hard-earned insights, learned through trial and error, can significantly enhance your projects.

• Why Is Google Field TTFB Worse Than Lighthouse Lab Data?

• Solo Development: Learning To Let Go Of Perfection - The best and worst thing about solo development is the “solo” part. There’s a lot of freedom in working alone, and that freedom can be inspiring, but it can also become a debilitating hindrance to productivity and progress. Victor Ayomipo shares his personal lessons on what it takes to navigate solo development and build the “right” app.

Remove a Specific Element from an Array

The removeElement function removes all occurrences of a specified element from an array using the filter method.

const removeElement = (arr, element) => arr.filter(el => el !== element);

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 3];
console.log(removeElement(numbers, 3)); // Output: [1, 2, 4]
console.log(removeElement(numbers, 5)); // Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 3] (no changes)

How it works:

1. filter(): Iterates through each element of the array.

2. Condition (el !== element): Keeps only the elements that are not equal to the specified element.

3. Returns a new array excluding the specified element, leaving the original array unchanged.
