Font licensing is wild. Proxima Nova — one of the most-used typefaces on the entire web — will run you $65 per style, and a full family license easily clears $300. Futura? Brandon Grotesque? Circular (yes, Spotify’s font)? We’re talking hundreds of dollars before you’ve typed a single character. For personal projects, indie dev work, […]
So you want to set up email on a subdomain. Maybe you’re trying to route support@help.yourdomain.com to your helpdesk, or you want newsletters@mail.yourdomain.com to run through your ESP without torching your main domain’s reputation. Whatever the reason, you’ve landed on the right page. MX records for subdomains are one of those DNS topics that seem […]
I remember the absolute headache of managing local PHP environments a decade ago. You had a single global install, and testing a legacy application meant totally breaking your modern projects. We all reached for tools like PHP Brew to compile different versions from source, or VirtPHP, hoping for a Python-like virtual environment experience. Today, those […]
If you have ever embedded an audio player on a podcast site, a music portfolio, or a media archive, you have probably noticed that pretty rendered waveform behind the playhead. Libraries like Wavesurfer.js and Peaks.js can draw those visuals on the client, but decoding a 60-minute MP3 in the browser is slow, memory-hungry, and unreliable […]
Here’s a question that’s been bouncing around dev Slacks and SEO Twitter for the past year: should you bother serving Markdown to AI agents and crawlers? Is it actually worth the effort, or is it just another shiny standard that’ll quietly die like so many before it? Short answer? Yeah, it’s worth doing. The longer […]
Managing multiple social media accounts is exhausting. Between juggling different platforms, scheduling posts at optimal times, and keeping up with analytics, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Commercial tools like Buffer and Hootsuite work well but come with hefty subscription fees and feature limitations. Enter Postiz – an open-source, self-hosted social media scheduling platform that puts […]
Your server is being probed right now. Not maybe — definitely. Every public-facing IP on the internet gets hit by automated scanners, brute-force bots, and malware C2 callbacks within minutes of going live. The attackers aren’t targeting you specifically — they’re running scripts that sweep the entire IPv4 space on a loop, and your server […]
Updated: 03/2026 When I first put together the open-source KPI roundup back in October 2025, the landscape was already impressive. Fast forward to early 2026 and things have moved fast — we’re talking major version releases, AI features landing in free tiers, and a couple of genuinely exciting new tools that deserve a spot on […]
FEATURED: Best Server Hosts in Europe 2026: The Ultimate Guide A lot has evolved since I shared my top Docker picks in 2025. I’ve streamlined the whole setup, cut the noise, and focused on what I actually use — locally and externally. Better organised, better documented, and somehow more enjoyable than ever. Could not stick […]
Spam hasn’t gone anywhere. Keep coming back to it, as I hate cleaning up my INBOX and so do my clients! In fact, AI-generated spam has made the problem noticeably worse through 2025 and into 2026 — it’s more convincing, passes basic heuristic checks that would’ve flagged template spam instantly, and arrives in higher volumes. […]
Quick Answer: Modern developers have a rich ecosystem of dummy data tools — from classic Lorem Ipsum text generators and Lorem Picsum image placeholders to powerful libraries like @faker-js/faker and Falso, plus self-hosted Docker mock API servers like Mockoon, Smocker, and JSON Server. Let’s be honest — every developer has been there. You’re building a […]
We’re already heading into month three, and I still haven’t posted an update — make of that what you will. January and February tend to be slow months business-wise, which usually means juggling a lot of smaller tasks in parallel. It can get stressful, since staying organized across multiple threads takes real discipline. Ready for […]
AI-generated phishing campaigns, snowshoe spam, and compromised accounts blasting garbage have made 2026 a genuinely rough time for inboxes — and every production mail environment needs a solid filtering layer to survive it. In 2026, the best open source options all run in Docker. This guide covers every major open source anti-spam solution with a […]
Want to create stunning 360° virtual tours without dropping hundreds on commercial software like Ipanorama 360? You’re in luck! The open-source JavaScript ecosystem has some seriously impressive options that’ll make your virtual tours look professional without costing a dime. Whether you’re building real estate walkthroughs, museum exhibitions, hotel showcases, or just want to display immersive […]
So here’s the thing — I stream with portrait NDI sources on a landscape canvas, and zooming in on a specific part of the frame in real time has always been a pain. You either bake it into the scene or do awkward hotkey gymnastics. I wanted something more live, more intuitive, more point-and-shoot. So […]
Welcome to a world where the words mean absolutely nothing — and that’s exactly the point. This collection of Lorem Ipsum PDFs exists for one purpose: testing PDF integration in development environments. No plot twists. No real content. Just clean, reliable placeholder documents you can throw at your code. Drop them into your upload handlers, […]
Ever tried to display a PDF on your website and ended up with a clunky, boring embed that looks like it belongs in 2005? Or maybe you want to create one of those fancy digital magazines with realistic page-turning animations that make people go “wow”? You’re in the right place. Whether you’re building an online […]
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: bots now make up more than half of all web traffic. Yeah, you read that right. In 2026, you’re getting more visits from automated scripts than actual humans. And a huge chunk of those bots? They’re AI crawlers scraping your content to train language models, answer user queries, or straight-up steal […]
Let’s cut through the noise: FAQ schema isn’t dead. But if you’re still using it the same way you did in 2022, you’re kinda missing the entire point of why it matters now. Google dropped a bombshell back in August 2023 when they restricted FAQ rich results to only government and health websites. So yeah, […]
So you’re paying for Adobe Creative Cloud just to use a few web fonts? Yeah, I’ve been there. Adobe Fonts (formerly Typekit) is great and all, but let’s be real: not everyone wants to shell out for a subscription just to load some pretty typography on their website. Plus, there’s that whole GDPR thing where […]
