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 everyone and thank you for clicking on this article. 🙂 There's a debate that's been raging for a long time in the developer community, namely: PHP vs Javascript. Leaving aside the relevance of such debates (each techno having its pros and cons), today I've decided to perform the complete heresy. 😛 Let's take a look at how to integrate React (a Javascript Front library) into a Symfony project (PHP back-end framework). 😀 "Isn't that a bit counter-intuitiv...

The what? What's this now? No, I'm sure you've already heard of it. Double authentication, often referred to under the acronym 2FA (for 2 Factors Authentication), is the principle of requiring 2 proofs of identity from a user to connect to a site, app or service. So here's a scoop: you've all used this before, and for a very long time. And yes, when you withdraw money from a cash dispenser (or make a contact payment with your bank card), it's 2FA. You use your card itself, with its number a...

In fact, if we just coded alone, we wouldn't get very far as developers. Helping each other and working together are the pillars of the IT world. So today we're going to take a look at the main forms that exist, and why they're useful in your apprenticeship or career as a developer? Peer-programming One of the best-known and most natural forms of mutual a...

Hello everyone and thank you for clicking on this article 🙂 Today I wanted to tell you about a step in the life of a dev that took me many hours (days): Validating an app through Meta services (Facebook). "Wait a minute, what do you mean a Facebook app? They already have one, I have it on my smartphone." Creating a Meta developer app Here we're not talking about a mobile app, but about applications in the sense of an entity that uses third-party services. Indeed, if you wa...

Hello there, This week we're going to talk about what makes a good developer, but not in the way you might think. The idea for this article comes from the discussions I have with my customers and why they enjoy working with me. This article also comes from the fact that, last weekend, I was taking a look at the state of the infrastructure on which this site (and the customers) are hosted, and in two years a lot has happened.... Are you ready? Then let's get started. What this artic...
