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...

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...

Naaaaaa but don't go away, it's an interesting subject! promise?. Before you start I'm redirecting you to the "asymmetric encryption" paragraph of my article on ransomware, because there's no p...

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'...

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...

Hello, good morning 😁, To kick off 2023, we're going to talk about freelancing, and more specifically about the different ways of working in the freelancing world. As you'll have gathered from the title, the two most common working methods are agency and fixed-price... but késako? 😛 Contract work Let's start with this, because it's very widespread, especially when the client is a large group. In fact, freelancing is very similar to salaried employment. F...

It's hot out there, ah yes, but no, that's not the topic of the day ... are you okay? This week we're back to the notion of "software as a service", or to put it more "stylishly" (or not), "Software as a Service" abbreviated as "SaaS". When Microsoft announced Windows 10, they said "this will be the latest version of Windows, it will be a SaaS" ... OK well, what about the upcoming arrival of Windows 11? ????. What? I'm looking for the little beast? I don't know what you're talking about ......

Hello over here 🙂, Thank you for clicking on this article, I hope as always you enjoy it 😁. This week, we're going to talk about a hot topic, well hot ... when I see the heated debates on LinkedIn that I never take part in, because I find it a debate that is a bit pointless. And yes, I'm talking about telecommuting, I don't really understand all the fuss about this practice, but hey, why not, today I'm going to give a bit of my vision of the thing and above all: ho...

Today we're going to be talking about one of the most important topics on the web, yet one that is all too often overlooked by many. That subject is Responsive Design. "What's this thing you're doing? Just another gimmick to look good? To look good, yes, but it's anything but a gimmick? It's about adapting the size of your website to all screen formats. From a smartphone to a TV or even an overhead projector. Why is this important? Which device do you think is most often used to acce...
