Hey! Nice to meet you. I love to ride a bike since childhood. I registered on this site quite recently and have no regrets. I had to earn a lot for my first bike, without hesitation, I got ecommerce accounting uk help and learned a lot about companies and business! If interested, follow the link.

WOW, Amazing Consistency!!! Also, you have really high-quality content π You are really gonna be my inspiration from now!
Most of you know me for my consistency, a golden arrow in my blog series. I've written 1000 articles in 1008 days! Almost an article a day, and my honeymoon was the only holiday I ever took. I'm super proud of this achievement; it has been a fantasti...

It's not the first time I'll be talking about community. I think it's an essential aspect of any successful tool. This shows in my previous explorations of Astro, Medusa, and now Vendure as well. All these products thrive in a super open, welcoming, ...

The cool part about Vendure is how easy it is to set up and how abstract each layer is. Basically, we get the following elements: External database Server Worker Admin UI Frontend While this is amazing, it also brings a bit of complexity when it co...

The previous article looked at customizing Vendure on a data and process level. In this article, we'll look at customizing emails, as they are often a big part of a webshop system. We'll be looking at two different layers of customization for customi...

Even though Vendure is a pretty significant project out of the box, in some cases, we might want to go in and modify some elements to work to our specific use case. In this article, I'll take a high-level look at some elements we can customize within...

It's been 365 days since I started my blogging journey, and this will be article 365.
I know many of you want to know my secret, and the truth is there isn't one. You don't need to be a magician, wizard, or mage to do anything with discipline.
It's all about making time relative and making an effort.
Of course, 2020 was a horrible year in some way or another. People lost jobs, they lost people dear to them, they lost freedom, and much more.
People also gained opportunities, working from home, spending more time with loved ones, not sitting in traffic for hours.
The covid situation is anything but good, and there are many downsides. But for me, I lost about an hour of travel time every day, which I considered an opportunity.
And you know what? I decided to use that time to start something new, a blog that is!
It's really as simple as making time relative and using it optimally.
Before I did this same trick with volunteer work.
I decided watching TV as much as I did was pointless.
I could easily stop watching TV for 3 hours a week, which I dedicated to a volunteer job.
In the end, you don't even notice these changes in any negative way. More often, they will spark motivation.
I started a lifestyle blog in 2018, but it never really took off. The articles were long and took forever to write. I did have much passion for writing them since they were things I enjoyed.
However, it just didn't satisfy me enough. With his came some imposter syndrome about not being a good enough developer and not getting enough time to improve me.
I thought long about this and decided why not combine learning and improving by writing it down? I've always been a person who remembers things best by writing them down. And so Daily Dev Tips was born.
I write a single article every day. These articles cover everyday topics I face as a developer.
A year goes by quick. It almost feels like not much has happened. But thinking about it, so many things happened!
Not just in a blogging field, but in general.
And as far as the blog goes:
It was a superb year, heck no traveling, but many good things happened, and I'm sure it will come.
I'll sum up my favorite articles from last year. These are by far the most viewed and loved articles:
This is a question I truly don't know. To be honest, doing this daily is quite strenuous, not particularly during the week (remember that free time?).
But the weekends can be killing, not just for me, but also for my partner.
So I might have to drop to weekdays only, and I'm sure no-one will really be sad about that.
I tend to keep up the blog, grow even bigger and help more people to become better developers themselves.
It would also be super cool to talk at some events, so who knows?
From the bottom of my heart, thank you! Yes, you, the reader of this article, are a part of this now. By reading my articles, sharing them, liking them, you motivate me to continue this journey.
To the stars and beyond!
