THE CI PLATFORM I LOVE TO USE



What I love to do when I develop is to optimise as much as possible my time by
finding tools that fit my needs and automating processes. The reason is that I
like to be involved in many different projects running in parallel, and most of
the time these are based on completely different technologies,...

8+1 REASONS WHY I LOVE TO WORK WITH DOCKER CONTAINERS



I like to work and experiment on totally different projects all the time. Every
month I intend to put my hands on something new and interesting, discovering
exciting technologies and solutions. This means that I usually find myself
working on totally different things, from Electron applications to Drupal
websites to python scripts or pure C code, and the list goes on and on.

The last thing that I need is to have a development environment a complete mess.
But, how can you keep everything organized and clean, and most of all, flexible
to change?

MY 10-1 REASONS WHY I LOVE TO USE VSCODE



All these years I work as a Web Developer I happened to use a lot of different
editors and IDEs. The reason is that I constantly try to find the best tools
that suits to me and the way I like to work. Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code (or
VSCode) is the IDE I prefer to use for the last couple of years and I think I
have a few good reasons for that.

GET RSS FEED FOR YOUR KO-FI ACCOUNT



Almost two years ago, I created my Ko-Fi page where I could blog about my work
on personal projects I am working on in my free time. Most of them cover topics
about the Amiga community and operating systems like AmigaOS and MorphOS.
Ko-Fi.com is a nice platform, easy to use and express yourself.

MOVED MY BLOG AWAY FROM TUMBLR AND HERE IS WHY



I started this blog back in 2011, because I needed a place to write about my
interests, my findings and the things that I love to use and do. When I created
it I choose Tumblr to host it because it is something different, with a a few
nice features, like the social character of the product, having your own domain
free of charge (almost), being able to create multiple blogs under the same
account, a selection of multiple themes and of' course didn't need coding to
have it up and running.

RECAPPING AMIGA COMPUTERS



When you mess with the Amiga computers, especially the original ones created by
Commodore, you never stop having fun. To keep them working for a few decades
more, there is a need to mess with their electronic components as well.

I wonder how young people would react, if someone told them that the last few
days he was kept busy by changing capacitors at his computer. And that’s exactly
what recapping is and I can tell you that it’s not easy to do. But as soon as
you turn the computer on and see that it works just fine, without any issues, a
feeling of greatness fills you from your head to your toes.

WHAT A YEAR 2022 WAS!



In a few days, this year will come to an end, and a new one will begin. I feel
that this year I was pretty occupied with a lot of projects that I managed to
work on and release, with your help keeping me motivated and supporting me all
this time.

This year I counted a few achievements that helped...

TWO YEARS BEING AWAY



And just like that, before I even realize it, two whole years passed since my
last post on this blog. No matter how many times I promised myself to be
consistent and fill up these lines and pages with topics I find interesting,
always something else distracts me. I should pause everything else and w...

HOW TO PICK UP A TRUSTED DOCKER IMAGE



You start a brand new project and you want to use Docker, but you don't know
which images you should use? How to choose which image is the best one? Is it
enough just to check the stars and the downloads on Docker Hub? If not, what
else do you need to check?

DON’T TREAT DOCKER CONTAINERS LIKE VIRTUAL MACHINES...



I know, I know. It is hard to resist some times on treating Docker images like
VMs. I totally get it, but I prefer to not do that. You see, there is no sense
to put everything in a custom image, every server and every product you develop,
with all their necessary libraries. And I will explain myself.

10+1 VSCODE EXTENSIONS I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT



At my previous post I talked about VSCode and how you can change the way it
works, by installing the extensions that you need, based on the way you prefer
to work. I would like to propose you my 10+1 extensions that I mostly use.

MOVING TO DUBLIN



In a few days a big change is going to take place in my life. I am living Athens
and moving to Dublin of Ireland. This was one of my dreams, which slowly comes
true.

The first time I thought to visit Ireland was back to 2005, when I was married.
Me and my beloved wife planned to visit Ireland for our honey moon. We even did
plans to visit all the castles and many of the country side places.
Unfortunately, we had to cancel that trip, because my love was pregnant to our
first child.
