Recently I was asked what you should do as a software engineer to keep your skill up to date. Of course, there are many things you can do. But one of the simplest and most effective practices in my view is reading. There are three websites I visit and scan as part of my daily… Continue reading How To Keep Up To Date
Deploy an Angular App to Azure
This is my new tutorial and second YouTube video showing how easy it is to deploy an Angular application to Azure using Azure Static Web Apps.
Getting Started With Azure App Services (and learning how to edit videos for YouTube)
I was playing around with Azure App Services and Visual Studio Code recently and I think this is a great service to get something up and running quickly – basically diving into the code right away. Let’s see if we can do everything just from within Visual Studio Code! I never considered to become a… Continue reading Getting Started With Azure App Services (and learning how to edit videos for YouTube)
Free Subscription Ended (and how to setup cost alerts)
I had quite a lot to do the last couple of weeks and I barely found time to continue my journey to become an Azure Solutions Architect. My free subscription ended and Microsoft asks me kindly to do an upgrade. Understanding the Costs I want to understand costs better! I guess this is something everyone… Continue reading Free Subscription Ended (and how to setup cost alerts)
Getting Started with Azure
I’ve already learned quite some stuff about Azure networking on my way to become Azure Solution Architect. Reading is great, but hands on experience is really helpful to strengthen the knowledge. But how to start? Luckily there is an Azure Free Account. Subscribing to it is very easy and you get a bit of play… Continue reading Getting Started with Azure
Becoming an Azure Solution Architect
I decided to become an Azure Solution Architet. I’m by no means an expert at this stage, but the main reason I’m writing a blog is to write down what I’ve learned. Why Solution Architect I haven’t checked out all the other possible certifications in detail, but I felt like this gives me the ability… Continue reading Becoming an Azure Solution Architect
Typolino – Firebase and GitLab CI/CD
I decided to migrate the Typolino application to GitLab and this blog post describes how I did it. Until now I hosted my code on GitHub or Bitbucket. I wasn’t really interested in GitLab. But after taking a closer look I realized that GitLab has some very nice features aboard, specifically in the area of… Continue reading Typolino – Firebase and GitLab CI/CD
Typolino – Analyze Bundle Size
Finally I had some time to fix some bugs on the weekend – and I switched all queries to get() as I don’t see the point for this application to get live updates – one may ask why use Firebase at all. But I have to say it’s more than just the realtime features. How… Continue reading Typolino – Analyze Bundle Size
Typolino – Add animations
I never used animations with Angular. Funny as I remember having used the AngularJS variant quite excessively. So why not try it out. I’m pretty sure there is a cleverer way of doing it but maybe I just need to get used to the system first. Seems as if one can simply define the animations… Continue reading Typolino – Add animations
Typolino – Web Worker Revisited
The first iteration of the web worker was OK and did the job. But somehow it didn’t feel good enough. I wanted to rewrite it using RxJs. The main reason being that with RxJs I have built in functionality to control concurrency. I don’t want a lesson with a lot of images to go crazy.… Continue reading Typolino – Web Worker Revisited
