Just notes on problems I face:

Windows 11 to MacOS
Here’s my random impression on transitioning to MacOS after a long time on Windows. Backstory: On 29.12.2023 I started using a Mac as my primary machine. I’ve been using Windows for a lot of time now. Had some experiments with Ubuntu more than 10 years ago, and was occasionally using a Mac for iOS app…

WordPress pages are not found on the website but are present in the dashboard
I have a friend with a website that uses qTranslate for the translations. After digging through the logs, cleaning the cache, updating all the plugins and themes, updating the PHP version, and removing everything from the .htaccess, it turned out to be due to the qTranslate. No idea what exactly happened, but switching the default…

TL;DR: %ENV_VAR% => %NX_ENV_VAR% We are using nx.dev to build a set of apps and libraries for one of our clients. Recently we found out that a CI/CD script we use to set the version number in the index.html file of the react apps was not working. It simply appends a GET parameter to a…

NX.dev – Problems with buildable libraries.
We are building a shared UI platform for one of our clients where we decided to store the code in a monorepo and use nx.dev to help us with the code organisation, dependencies, builds, etc. When trying to set up the common libraries of the project as publishable (and buildable) libs, we run into compilation…
