Drone.io is a great, Docker based alternative to Jenkins that is a lot like a self hosted alternative to TravisCI. One of the best ways to get Drone automatically building your images for you, especially images that have a build stage, is to use a multi-stage Dockerfile

The official rules read: “Everyone has their own tagged link that points to the landing page — each unique click = 1 point”. Interesting, very interesting.

Too many layers and your machines take a large amount of storage and can take a long time to download and extract. Too few layers and the machine takes F O R E V E R to rebuild.

I found this the other day when I had the hiccups a few different days. Posting it here because it worked amazing and I do not ever want to forget this technique.

The documentation on Code Climate for setting up auto generation of code coverage for a JavaScript application was lacking pretty hard. Here I show how we can get a React app using Travis CI and Jest to automate generating code coverage that gets sent to Code Climate.

Lets create a TypesScript React app without using the cli tool Create React App. This allows you to create a custom build specific to your deploy process.

If you’ve ever configured Docker + Nginx + Lets Encrypt before, it takes some time. Tools like Certbot have made this process easier, but they are not without flaws, especially when deploying to a docker environment. Traefik makes it a cinch.

Traverse is a GitHub Explorer App I built using Electron + React, and a whole bunch of other open source tools.

Update PHP on your Mac using after the homebrew/php tap has been deprecated.

So you just got yourself a fresh Mac, now what? Getting your Mac configured to your workflow is essential to productivity. You spend the better part of every day using it, it is worth spending the time to get it set up right the first time.

A little something a few coworkers and I created at Event Farm.

A live view of Event Farm's upstairs/downstairs bathroom occupation status. Keep the window open for a few minutes during week day business hours and watch the room status. It will change without the need of a refresh.

Getting a private Git/Gogs server behind SSL is actually surprisingly easy to get going. Let's see what it takes to get a containerized Gogs + MySQL running on a VPS server behind SSL using Docker.

The goal of this is to have a working development and production build for a PHP7.2 Application using Nginx as our web server.

Some notes on setting up HTTPS on your server using the official Let's Encrypt Docker Image.

Laravel Elixir is a wrapper around a traditional Gulp build system that provides a clean, fluent API for defining basic Gulp Tasks.
