    How to Create a Markdown Blog in PHP With the Slim Framework and Why You Should Love the Slim Framework

    How to Create a Markdown Blog in PHP With the Slim Framework and Why You Should Love the Slim Framework

    In this episode, I step through a recent post that I wrote for the Twilio blog showing how to build a Markdown-based blog with the Slim Framework and PHP's Iterators - and really show the love for Slim Framework. 

    Why? Because I invested so much time in writing the code behind the tutorial, researching the various components that I used, writing, editing, and refining the post. It was a mission — but so worth it. 

    Additionally, I've become a massive fan of the Slim Framework, because of how light and minimalist it is, and want to help others see just how good it is. It doesn't have the market share or financial backing of larger frameworks, such as Laravel and Symfony, so I'm doing my bit to help raise its profile.

    Grab your favourite beverage, settle in, and please don't mind me meandering a bit here and there throughout the course of the episode.

    Using Composer Path Repositoriess While Running PHP Apps With Docker Compose

    Using Composer Path Repositoriess While Running PHP Apps With Docker Compose

    Docker Compose is an excellent way of deploying apps both on local development machines and to remote environments, but does it play nice with Composer path repositories. Yes. They sure do. In this week's episode I shared a little experience I had during the week where I didn't update my docker-compose.yml file to account for the fact that the path to a forked git repository was outside of my default Docker context, and how I quickly fixed it.

    Docker Essentials (the book) is READY. Let's have a celebratory episode

    Docker Essentials (the book) is READY. Let's have a celebratory episode

    This is a bit of a fireside-chat style episode, with not much tech talk going on. Rather, it's a bit of a look behind-the-scenes at what goes in to creating technical books and courses, such as a bit about what it takes to set up a home recording studio (on a budget) that still delivers the level of professionalism that you'd expect. 

    So grab your favourite beverage, settle in, and please don't mind me meandering a bit here an there throughout the course of the episode.

    Docker Essentials (the Book) is READY (and what I learned about docker build recently)

    Docker Essentials (the Book) is READY (and what I learned about docker build recently)

    It sure feels like a lifetime since I began planning out Docker Essentials all those months ago. But it's ready. So, I feel that it's only fair to talk about it, given the number of hours that have gone in to create it. If you haven't already, grab your copy today and get in to the fun that is Docker!

    But it's not all self-promotion in this episode. I also share a good chunk about what I've been learning about the docker build command. Most importantly how, since Docker Engine 18.09, with some restrictions, it can send an entire context to a remote Docker daemon. 

    Because of that, you don't have to sync or copy files to the remote host using tools such as sftp, rsync over SSH, a Samba or NTFS share, or any other kind of tool Docker does it all for you. What's not to love about the simplicity that one, small command gives you?! So if you're new to the command or don't know that much about it, this episode is for you.

    Recent experiences and learnings with tailwindcss

    Recent experiences and learnings with tailwindcss

    In this episode, I share some of my recent experiences and learnings with tailwindcss, my frontend, css framework of choice, specifically building a fully responsive design for a new page on https://webdevwithmatt.com.

    The lowdown is that I didn't follow the key advice from tailwindcss and start with a small device first, and then work up to a large device, such as a standard desktop. I started with a standard desktop and then had to refactor the design to be responsive. What a no-no.

    In this episode, I share my experiences of doing that, to encourage you not to make my mistake.

    How to tell a Docker client to communicate with a remote Docker daemon

    While building my first GitHub Action-based workflow recently, I struggled until I took the time to relearn - and re-appreciate - how the Docker client and daemon communicate. In this episode, I share:

    • How they work
    • How the understanding helped me build a solid workflow to deploy webdevwithmatt.com
    • Some of the different ways you can tell the Docker client which Docker daemon (remote engine) to communicate with
    • plus lots more
