If you need to migrate Zend Expressive applications from version one to two, don’t do everything by hand! Save yourself time, and make use of Zend Expressive Tooling.
Recently, Jeffrey Way dateed what’s become quite a controversial video in the PHP community on Laracasts, discussing a concept called Visual Debt.
For the longest time, Zend Framework hasn’t had the strongest support for command-line tooling and scaffolding. However, in recent times, that’s all changed. Come find out how to use Expressive’s new tooling support to create modules and middleware rapidly.
Perhaps you’ve not seen the news on Twitter, Facebook, or the mailing list. If so, you may not know that I’m actively working on a new book and course about Zend Expressive.
A little while ago, I wrote two parts in a multi-part series about using Docker. As someone who’s reasonably new to Docker — and been bitten by the Docker bug — I wanted to share what I’d learned, in the hopes that others may benefit.
If you’re using Docker Compose to deploy an application (whether locally or remotely) and something’s not working, here’s a concise approach you can use to debug the deployment and get your containers up and running properly.
While I use ReStructuredText, and its companion platform Sphinx-Doc a lot, that doesn’t mean that I believe they’re the best combination for technical writing and documentation.
Do you use Sphinx-Doc and reStructuredText to manage your project’s technical documentation? Do you find that it’s a lot of work to ensure content validates and renders correctly? If so, this post walks through an initial workflow which seeks to make the process easier and more efficient.
Do you have something that you feel passionate about, something that you’d love to see realised? If so, how are you using your time? Are you using it effectively? Or are you, in fact, throwing so much of it away on pointless, trivial, tasks, by ramping up every day? Come learn what ramping up is, and why it’s costing you your success.
Rapid application development isn’t often associated with Zend Framework. However, thanks to the ReflectionBasedAbstractFactory, rapid prototyping and developing in Zend Framework is as simple as Laravel. Come find out how in this tutorial.
