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...

Hey folks 😁, Thanks for clicking on this article, we're staying in the web world and I hope you'll enjoy it! 🙂 Today we're going to talk about a web API that I really like, and which is now well supported by browsers, the dialog element. Are you ready? Let's go! 😉 Why this article? As you probably already know, I'm currently working on Coupéo, the ViteUneTable but for hairdressers this time. And my favorite front-end stack remains the same,...

Hello hello hello, Today, we're going to talk about my latest little adventure: enabling a 142-year-old company to accept cryptocurrencies. Setting the scene I've been working with Les Frères Marchand, for over a year now, at first we made a website together (it was Ludo Dev CMS's second instance), then we got the urge to create an online cheese shop together, which has been online since September 2021. On this cheese shop, everything is automated to simplify life for customers...

Hello ?. Well, yes, we're back together this week for an article that's more "entrepreneurial" than "tech", but don't worry, tech isn't far off. If you're an entrepreneur, you might learn a few things, and if you're not, well ... you might too! Foreword: In this article I'm going to talk about products and services, there's no commercial connection with the products I'm talking about, I'm only doing it because I find it interesting and because it may solve problems for some of you. Wh...

Hey there! 🙂 To read this article, you use a software, this software is so present in your life that now, for you it seems "part of the scenery". I'm talking, of course, about your browser 😛. Over the last ten years, we're not going to lie to ourselves, there's been one all-category champion who's been raking in all the market share, well, especially on the "desktop", I'm talking of course about Google Chrome. On mobile, this is less true, with Apple forcing the use of...

Hello there, This week we're going to be talking about image formats. In fact, this article follows on from my article on CSS, and we're going to be talking about optimizing sits, in this case images. First of all, we'll review the older image formats, find out how to optimize them and finally talk about WEBP. We'll even see how it's possible to have a site or application that uses this format automatically, as is the case on the site you're currently visiting. Other image formats We'...

Salutation voyageur? (what? what plagia?), On this blog, there hasn't yet been an article on chatGPT, why? Quite simply, because if it's to tell you the same thing you've already seen elsewhere, there's no point. So I've been waiting for something interesting and useful to tell you, and it looks like I've got one. If you're using ChatGPT, you must have accumulated quite a few prompts for communicating with it, and then after a while you realize that "copy/paste" isn't the most practical...

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 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...

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....
