Supabase streamlines the process of working with file storage by offering an S3-compatible API.

Prerequisites This article assumes you are familiar with Python.

There is this new trend where some developers are saying if they want to see what the database looks like when using a migration strategy then the declarative strategy is better because you can look at a single file (schema) to see what the database looks…

As a returning user of Windows after a long time using macOS I now need to do certain tasks with a command line/terminal.

I have seen this question come up numerous times in the svelte discord chat, so I have decided to write a short guide on how to get dotenv working with Svelte 3 .

Svelte 3 has a small API surface and allows you to create components as simple as you want.

Depending on what other component libraries you’ve used, you may be used to handling events by passing callback functions to component properties, or using a special event syntax – Svelte supports both, though one is usually more appropriate than the other

The Reason Like many people, I started using Dropbox to store data in the cloud and sync data between different computers.

Thinking of a topic I normally take some time to think about what I should write about, I have a few questions I normally ask myself: who am I writing this for future me or someone else?

This felt like a better way of defining public routes as it gave more control.

In Amber if you want to render a different template with a controller not matching its name, you can just pass the path to it in the render function.

Adding Google Analytics to any website should be pretty straight forward once you have the code snippet that Google provides you with.

Today I want to go about creating a Twitter tweet box with Svelte.

Svelte is not a framework like the other conventional Javascript frameworks.

Since I started working with Trails, I have come to like its approach to a lot of things.

This is my first time using Trails and I decided to follow to the guides.

I really like RactiveJS and how the inner workings work most of the time.

Recently folks have been asking about what middlewares are available for Slim 3.

Over the past few years Laravel have become a popular full stack PHP framework and with its latest version (L4) the framework have been componentized.

In this post we will go through setting up Slim to work with multiple view parsers, for this example we will look at using Slim’s PHP view library and the Twig view library.

The PHP Framework market landscape has changed recently with the anticipation of Laravel 4, the most expressive PHP Framework to have come out of the techworks.

Over the past few months some interesting development have been happening in the MODX community.

Some of you might have seen my many rants on Twitter about the state of MODX, I have grown weary and have now decided to fork it.

This article is not about building the next rad web app, if you are after that then you might want to go check out some of Drew Wilson’s work, otherwise continue reading.
