Like any dev, I sometimes want to test small pieces of code, make an example landing page to test a service or API... In short, there are many cases where you just want to try something out, without it being a full-fledged project. To do this, of course, we run our development environment on our own machine, "locally". Let the world benefit from our local project Okay, that's all well and good, but what if we need to access this local code from the outside? And yes, it can happen...

How are you? Last week, the "Ludo Dev E-Shop" explanatory page was released. On this page, it's explained that the emphasis has been placed on the user experience, and that everything has been done to try and keep the experience as simple as possible. Behind this interface, there's a lot of technology (full automation), but is this technology alone enough? In this week's article, we're going to talk about the user experience, and how to make it a pleasant one. For this, I'm going to use t...

Hello and welcome to a new world! Well, almost. You couldn't miss it, today everyone's talking about AI, Artificial Intelligence and super-smart robots that do everything for us. < So I thought, this might be a good opportunity to set the record straight on the subject. What is AI? We're talking about artificial intelligence, but that in itself is already shorthand for a machine learning model. In other words, the "computer", i.e. a set of servers, will be able to deduce things by pr...

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...

It's a widespread practice, and understandably so: dozens or even hundreds of different passwords to remember, it's complicated. Nevertheless, you should be aware that it's a very bad practice that can one day turn against you, and as I say, prevention is better than cure. How are passwords entered on sites and applications? Before we understand why it's a bad idea to use the same password everywhere, we need to understand how and/or where your passwords are stored. What happens whe...

Yes, I'm back this week... Did you miss me? No, well ... ? Another thorny subject this week, I'm often asked: "Hey, do you know a free web host? How do you make a site for free? ... etc." So here I'm going to explain why what we think is free isn't, and more importantly, why we think it is. Everything on the Internet is free - where does that come from? The Internet is a medium, and like many media before it, its business model is based on advertising, often aimed at individuals (there'...

For once, I'm not going to talk purely about web development, but rather about the digital lifestyle? A few years ago, there was a lot of talk about online banking. I must admit that I fell for it at the time (and following a lot of advice too, because marketing isn't everything?) and created an account with N26. The conclusion? I still use it as a secondary account today. Online banking VS traditional banking Tech people understand each other when it comes to getting things done...

There are several ways of creating a website, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. But first of all, you need to ask yourself the right questions? Why this site? What needs should it meet? Is it a store? Is it a blog? Is it a showcase site? Does it need to be highly interactive (like an application)? Does it need to be SEO-friendly? Once we've answered these questions, we have several options open to us, including two main ones: Custom development. In this case, we create th...

New week, new article, how are you? Well, the title isn't crazy, we agree, but SEO and all that ... You're present on social networks, you have subscribers, relations ... etc. (in short, there are people in your network!), but when you publish something, your publication reaches few people ... so you ask yourself "But WHY? "I'd say, "That's just the way it is, life's unfair", but that'd be pointless and would evade the question.... Social networks are private companies I think it's wort...

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...
