This week's article is all about developers, yes ... there's something for everyone. How are you? Whit Monday and all that ... yeah well, that's no reason to get up and get to work. What's a slug? For the guys at the back, we'll remind you what a slug is. It's a "string" normalized so that it can be inserted into a URL, for example on the article you're reading in your address bar there's no "index.php?article=49" because well .... it's ugly (if it's ugly, that's all.), a nice URL that l...

Hello and good morning, This week I'm going to give you a short list of the applications I use on a daily basis, and more importantly ... why? First of all, I'm not talking about licenses here, and even less about commercial practices. Yes, I know that in this article I'm going to talk about companies that have commercial practices that not everyone agrees with, but I'm not going to deal with that, so try to keep that in mind when reading this article. How do I choose my tools? Actual...

Hello there, Today we're going to talk about Cron, a tool that lets you create scheduled tasks on a Linux server. It's a very useful tool for automating repetitive tasks, such as sending e-mails, backing up files and so on. For beginners, creating Cron tasks can be a little complicated, but don't panic... with the right tools and knowledge, it's pretty straightforward. What is Cron? Cron is the Linux job scheduling system. It allows you to launch tasks at specific times, or at regular...

I think you'll have gathered by now that on this blog we're particularly fond of Symfony. 😛 The robustness and versatility of this framework (I should almost say ecosystem, by the way), we've already talked about here Well, I suppose for this time that the principle I'm going to present also exists in other frameworks, but again, it's really simple to use in Symfony. What's a workflow? This principle is workflow. If you're used to working in an English-speaking context, a workf...

Hello there, This week's article comes from an observation I made recently. Before, in Chrome, when you visited a site that offered OpenSearch, it automatically added it to the browser's search engines, so all you had to do was type "a keyword" + space and start searching directly from the browser's omnibox. This browser behavior has recently changed (perhaps for the better, as it prevents anything and everything from being added to the browser). Now, in Chromium (and therefore Chrome and...

Hello ?, After Josselin's article on languages and Sylius, I'd like to take you through the framework in its entirety... Have you ever come across a complicated e-commerce project? Or rather, have you ever found yourself unable to adapt or customize your e-commerce site the way you want? As if you had to adapt to the solution rather than the solution adapting to you? Does this sound familiar? If so, I've got something for you: Sylius. Have you ever heard of it? No ? In any cas...

Hello Hello ?, Windows isn't my main operating system, in fact I'm more Linux / macOS, but that doesn't stop me from following what's going on with Windows and using it from time to time. It has to be said that Microsoft's work over the last few years has been quite remarkable; between the terminal, "WSL 2" and "Powershell", there's plenty to do. This week, I'd like to talk a little about "PowerToys", a set of tools made available by Microsoft to enhance the Windows experience. As the...
