My experience with native and hybrid apps (before Turbo Native) This isn't my first app on the App Store, whether it's personal projects or client apps, I've already had the opportunity to work on iOS, through Cordova at the time or even React Native, but I've put that part to one side for a while... 100% native applications In the case of iOS, when you want to work...

Hello 🙂, If you follow this blog at all, you'll know that I really like the Symfony framework. In fact, it's my preferred choice for all my projects (even this blog ...). When you're doing web development, you'll probably have noticed that there's a lot of repetition. Imagine you want to create a simple web application that lets users create "to-dos" and save them - yes, it's a classic... ? Before creating your to-do application, you'll need to (non-exhaustive list) : Cre...

Hi there! Here we are, it's back to school time, and as the first article of the season, we're going to talk about push notifications. Here, we're not going to use the basic example of a notification that consists of sending a "successful backup" notification to your own phone, but we're going to talk about a notification that is sent by an application that keeps me going ... So, we're talking about a "product" in production and used every day by thousands of users, but there's a but: it'...

Hello 🙂 Lately we've been talking about Turbo and iOS, and about making PWAs installable. This article is the continuation of those two articles (well, more the one on iOS), so I invite you to skim it, because even if the two systems are quite different, the principle is the same. The application in production As always, the app we're going to talk about is the one I use every time I want to test new technologies. As I write these lines, it's available on the Google Play Store....

To avoid contacts, restaurants are now using QR Codes to allow their customers to consult the menu. The PDF format To start with, you'll need the menu in PDF format. The "PDF" format is a standard format that can be read on any device, iOS or Android, so using the PDF format means you won't have any compatibility problems with your customers' phones. It's also possible to have a simple web page, but since that's more difficult to achieve, stick to a PDF format, which you should already ha...

I thought it would be interesting to write an article on the subject now that I've set up a Messenger bot for my Boréales Créations Facebook page. What is a Messenger bot? You've created a robot? It's your fault, isn't it Skynet? Well, not yet anyway. Here the Messenger bot is simply used to answer for you when people, prospects, customers write to you on your Facebook page. 😃 You know what it's like when you're busy, you don't necessarily check all the notificat...

When I was writing an application using Stimulus and needed to use intl-tel-input, I came across this "Github issue". What's going on between Stimulus and intl-tel-input? In fact, to work, intl-tel-input clones the base element, so if you link this base element to a Stimulus controller, and it's this controller that instantiates intl-tel-input, you'll need to use intl-tel-input.If you link this base element to a Stimulus controller, and it's this controller that instantiates intl-tel-inpu...

Hello good morning 🙂, Ah, you're still on vacation? I'll come back later with my article, then? No, it's okay? Can we go now? Top! 😁 Today, we're going to talk about Google Fonts, more specifically: how to "self-host" them ? Let's turn on the fan, warm up our fingers and get started! What are Google Fonts? Google Fonts are a set of fonts created by Google. What's special about these fonts is that they're designed for screens, especially the web. On this site I don't us...

Hey there. How are you? Good, not too cold? so much the better! This week's article is for my fellow developers, and we're going to talk about search ... but real search! I often see MYSQL used as a search engine ... It's a fact! In the projects I've worked on, I've often seen this database management system (or MariaDB or Postgresql) used as a search engine, with things like "where my_attribute LIKES '%blabla%". And this is a very bad practice... What's the real use of a relational...
