Retiring code optimizes resources

The article talks of reasons why software is abandoned.

Ultimately, it leads me to believe that abandoning code optimizes costs and allows CTOs to reallocate resources to more productive avenues.


What are your stories related to abandoned software?

What if we improve the way developers are given access to databases

Adminer, DBeaver, MySQL Workbench, PhpMyAdmin, many developers use those tools every day to get access to databases. The problem ? They use the database credentials to connect to those tools.

What if we could improve that?

AWS WAF Firewall rules for a Symfony application

Is anyone aware of a rule set for AWS WAF firewall that would work with a Symfony application?

I know there exists rule sets for a PHP application and a Wordpress application, but there's nothing specifically for Symfony.

Has anyone written or configured there own that they'd be willing to share?

simple PHP backend for static webshop (Stripe Elements + SQLite + email invoices)

Hi team, looking for some pointers:
I can do html, css, simple javanoscript and python but I have only edited php.ini in my past.

I'm looking to setup a simple webshop on my vps with the following features:

- (x5) Static HTML product pages + simple PHP backend + Stripe Elements via a static order page (with the stripe iframes).

A simple backend that:

- stores orders in an SQLite file.

- sends invoices from my own configured email.

Any ideas where to start? I can omit the orders database if security is a concern. A large part of this is to avoid Stripe's own hosted checkout/keeping the whole purchasing experience under one domain- with email confirmation included.

I believe this is possible using the Stripe API and webhooks but I have no experience with this and want to use this a reason to learn/get started.

I believe this shouldn't be too hard since I don't need a cart and there are no options on these products. Just "buy it now"s .

Appreciate any guidance!

I built a very fast and simple zero-downtime deployment platform for Laravel

Hello everyone,

I’m Henry, the developer of Loupp, which I introduced to this community last year Read here.

Back then, I got a lot of criticism and feedback, which I took to heart. Since then, I’ve rebuilt Loupp, and it now serves 300+ developers with 30+ servers deployed, along with shared hosting.

Many of the issues that were raised have been fixed in v2:

Zero-downtime deployments (I’ll write an article on how this was achieved, if need be).
Improved security: no details are stored on Loupp. Everything is only fetched when you request it, and all data can be deleted immediately by you.
A more intuitive UI (I designed this one personally).
Fast server setup, capped at 4–5 minutes max.
Full documentation.
Server presets – reusable server setup configurations.
SSL uploads.
PHP version switching.

You might ask, “Why build something that already exists?” Well, because I already built it and now I’m taking it on full time.

My goal is for Loupp to focus on linking and unlinking servers in the future: a platform where you can spin up new servers or link existing ones seamlessly, then unlink them whenever you want. A platform for both freelancers and organizations.

Check Loupp out
