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'...

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...

In my case, the major test was to push AI a bit further than usual to see what it could bring me. So let's go, I'll tell you all about it! 😀...

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...
