Hello, hello 🙂, Thank you for clicking on this article, was it the cow photo that made you click? So, yes... I see what you mean... I let loose on the image and on the title of this page... yes no, but it's summer, we're relaxing here 😛. So, have you ever managed your own e-mail server? I have, several times in the past for different companies I've worked for... Today, we're going to talk about a cow, but, not the one from interville (old man's reference...), but ano...

Hello everyone and thank you for clicking on this article 🙂 Today I'm going to tell you something dramatic: On a beautiful spring afternoon, you're working on your server via your favorite terminal and all of a sudden boom. Nothing responds. You try to open the web sites you're managing, and nothing happens. It just keeps going until the browser times out. 🤦‍♂️ This is exactly what happened to me a few days ago, and I wouldn't recommend this experience...

Hey there 😁, Thanks for clicking on this article, it's changing a bit, but I hope you like it 🙂. This week, we're going to talk about social networks, well especially one, it's LinkedIn, many of you read me on the blog, but some of you are on LinkedIn.... Basically, this article was also intended for Twitter (they say you have to say X now), but on X, there's no problem, the algorithm doesn't seem to limit the reach of tweets containing a link (according to my research)...

Hi over here 🙂, thank you for clicking on my article 😁. Today, for once, we're going to talk about a very controversial subject in the world of web development: Wordpress... Often scoffed at, Wordpress is nonetheless a must-have, it grew up with the web, Korben 's blog for example, it's a Wordpress 😛 (did you know that?) But this little guy has evolved, and that's why I'm featuring him in this week's article... In fact, I've used it to create the landing page f...

Hello everyone and thank you for clicking on this article 🙂 Today I wanted to tell you about a step in the life of a dev that took me many hours (days): Validating an app through Meta services (Facebook). "Wait a minute, what do you mean a Facebook app? They already have one, I have it on my smartphone." Creating a Meta developer app Here we're not talking about a mobile app, but about applications in the sense of an entity that uses third-party services. Indeed, if you wa...

Hello there 🙂, Thank you for clicking on this article, I hope you like it 😁. Today, we're going to talk tech, but for many of you it's going to be a little less fun than usual, to be able to sell your SaaS in the hexagon, you have to go through the "invoicing" box, the problem is that it can be time-consuming and waste time... I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you what "B2B" means. I'm sure some of you already know, but just so everyone is clear: "B2B" stands fo...

This week it's going to be a cool little article, the big articles will come back, don't worry, but this week, we're just going to go for a microservice...

Hello over here 🙂, Thank you so much for clicking on this article 😁. On the last post, I told you it smelled like spring, but now it's cooled off severely 😅. Ah yes, it's true we're still not here to talk weather... I'm sorry (well, I think.). This week, we're going to play with CSS and completely break Twig, you'll see it's fun, well, it's a bit "not very clean" as a method, but hey, on this blog, I tell you all about it. Anyway, this week, we're making art...

Hey, hello there 🙂, Say, doesn't it smell a little like spring right now? 😛. Ah yes, I digress... that's not why we're here 😮. This week, we're going to talk about "Side Projects", those little projects that are basically there for fun and sometimes become big. Indeed, if you follow this blog, you'll know that they're at the heart of my life... Developers and Side Projects Before anything else, I'd like to take the time to talk about the relationship betwee...
