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...

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 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...

A new article on Sylius is available. I was sure I'd already told you about Sylius, but it seems I haven't, so here goes! Sylius is an e-commerce solution based on our beloved Symfony framework (we've already told you all about it on the blog, though?). Imagine being able to manage an online store and configure it from start to finish, all while benefiting from all the advantages and functionalities offered by Symfony - doesn't that sound dreamy? Well, that's not all, because Sylius...

Hello there, Like every week, we're getting together for a little article. This week, I'm going to write an article that's been on my mind for a long time. We're going to talk about Symfony and why it's my framework of choice as a web developer. Are you ready? Let's get started! My discovery of Symfony In fact, in my life as a developer, my first encounter with Symfony went very badly... It wasn't its fault or mine.

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'...

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 😛.

On mobile, this is less true, with Apple forcing the use of...

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...
