If you're like me, you must have ideas every day for projects to develop, code and implement. Most of them will never see the light of day and will remain at the idea stage? But sometimes (fortunately) some of them do become a little more concrete, and for that it can be useful to have a POC. A what? The benefits of a POC A POC stands for Proof of Concept, in other words, a version capable of proving that your concept is functional and can materialize. In short, it's an ultra...

Hey, hello there 🙂, Say, doesn't it smell a little like spring right now? 😛. Ah yes, I digress... that's not why we're here 😮. This week, we're going to talk about "Side Projects", those little projects that are basically there for fun and sometimes become big. Indeed, if you follow this blog, you'll know that they're at the heart of my life... Developers and Side Projects Before anything else, I'd like to take the time to talk about the relationship betwee...

Following my first article, I was now able to run a development environment to create Symfony projects. Okay, that was all well and good, but for the moment it was only running locally on my MacBook, and that's no way to host a site. Since shared servers are already a hell of a thing to configure for a simple site, I didn't dare imagine running Docker on them. So I opted for a dedicated server from Scaleway and once I'd placed the order, I installed Docker on Ubuntu 20.04. I organize...

Hi there! In response to some of my latest articles, a few of you have sent me a quick e-mail asking "But ... in legacy applications, what do I replace JQuery with?" So, when a question comes up, you know what we do? We write an article ... for everyone to enjoy. Bootstrap 5, the final stage in JQuery's demise? Let's take a quick look at some history. JQuery arrived on planet Earth in 2006. Back then, there was a big problem on the web (it was called Internet Explorer?, roh ç...

Hello and thank you for clicking on this article! Some time ago I told you about my nuclear disaster, the super adventure of a server that suddenly shuts down and gives no sign of life. Recently I received an email from my service provider saying "Please note that your Ubuntu version will soon no longer be supported. You should upgrade to 22.04 minimum". Well, even if this email seems nicer, I still had a feeling of déjà vu of my server getting lost in the cosmic uni...

Last time, I told you about CI/CD right here I don't know if you thought it was cool, but today we're going to talk about Git itself. "You've already explained to us, though, that it's meant to deploy our code online, is there anything else?" Yes, CI/CD is only part of what Git can be used for. Indeed, its primary use is versioning. Behind this rather barbaric name lies something that is both very useful and almost magical. Yes, it is. "What's this guy trying to sell us now? Noth...

Like any dev, I sometimes want to test small pieces of code, make an example landing page to test a service or API... In short, there are many cases where you just want to try something out, without it being a full-fledged project. To do this, of course, we run our development environment on our own machine, "locally". Let the world benefit from our local project Okay, that's all well and good, but what if we need to access this local code from the outside? And yes, it can happen...

Come on, this week I'm making enemies! Here we go! Since the beginning of the crisis, we've been seeing "Get a website and increase your visibility" all over the place. Watch out! Hold on to your hats, a huge "scoop" is coming: a site costing just a few euros a month won't bring you ... ANYTHING. What's that? What do you mean you knew? Ah yes, nothing worthwhile in life is easy to achieve... that's true. What's a website for? Let's say you had your "ma-super-boutique.com" website made,...

How are you? Last week, the "Ludo Dev E-Shop" explanatory page was released. On this page, it's explained that the emphasis has been placed on the user experience, and that everything has been done to try and keep the experience as simple as possible. Behind this interface, there's a lot of technology (full automation), but is this technology alone enough? In this week's article, we're going to talk about the user experience, and how to make it a pleasant one. For this, I'm going to use t...
