Career-oriented social networking platforms, business networks for short, gather millions and millions of users worldwide. And as individual as these users are, they have one thing in common: they beg for success and recognition.
This is where the story begins…
Back in the days when it was still of help to wish for a thing, there lived a lonesome goblin. The goblin wasn’t pretty, he wasn’t tall. He wasn’t very smart either. After a while being all alone the goblin started trying to find a friend. And he tried very hard. And the harder he tried, the more difficult his plan became. So he tried to…
Taking new paths means adjusting to new opportunities! It means critically examining long-standing approaches, thinking outside the box and trying out new things. The experience gained from previous versions, in particular, allows developing a software solution in a sensible way to meet the changing requirements of an already fast-moving market. Otherwise, a system risks turning into a dusty monolith.
Shopware 6 has a lot of thought put into it, leaving much room for new things. …
There is also an english version of this post. Please check out:
Mit Shopware 6 wurde viel umgedacht, viel Raum für Neues geschaffen. Weil Shopware nicht nur eine reine Software für Anwender ist, sondern ebenso als eine Art Framework für Entwickler fungiert, sind auch die Anforderungen und Bedürfnisse aus der Developer Community ein wichtiges Thema bei der Weiterentwicklung.
Während sich der Löwenanteil wie so oft im Software-Business unter der Oberfläche befindet und sich zumeist den Blicken der Mehrheit entzieht, dreht sich im E-Commerce vieles aber auch um Optik, Look & Feel, Performance und Co. …
Assume there is a new feature you are about to develop for your project or your customer’s wish. There are plenty of different ways how to deploy your code, how to handle several versions or to keep quality by using code analysis tools, for example. Deployment pipelines (CI/CD) allow you to take your brand new feature live. And in case of emergency they will easily let you rollback to previous state. But what if your feature requires changes to your database’s schema or data?
This is why “migrations” exist. Migrations are a concept or even more an additional functionality put…
This is the story of my good old friend, let’s call him John. He is software developer with body and soul. And he’s smart, of course he is! John is able to solve almost all the tasks assigned to him. But John also has a dark side… cleanliness is not his key strength. And I’m neither talking about he wouldn’t follow the company’s clean desk policy nor about his personal hygiene. Not at all! He is pretty messy about his work. Unfortunately! Because…
Not infrequently, unclean work leads to long-term errors. As always when talking about software, the biggest part…
As you might know there is a bunch of loosely typed programming languages like PHP, Perl or JavaScript. Even if there might be tons and tons of questions and answers to talk about regarding this topic, this article is not about strong or weak typing, implicit or explicit type casting or anything like that.
This article is about non performers, average performers and top performers… about professionals and those who think they ‘d be… about programmers like you and me, no matter if you are novice or expert.
While being a web developer focusing on frontend development and my years…
Human beings. Imperfect perfection in all its facets. No surprise that there is no perfectly designed software that would fit everyone’s needs. Some might say the most effective way to drill a hole into a wall is using a bull dozer. Consequently, if a software does not what it should just modify its core files and everything’s fine. But…
NO… DO NOT DO THAT!
Applying modified code to vendor files sounds appealing. You will save time figuring out another way solving your problem. You will exactly affect the piece of code you want to. Maybe you will have a feeling…
