Hi, guys it's me MINCE again. If you don't follow me I am Mince a UI designer for the web. From the intro you might get it that I love CSS. Yeah, it's true. Today, we will talking about variables in **CSS**.

## The Basics

For storing values in CSS and reusing them you can create variables. Once changed they change where ever you declared them. Just like javascript, css, python or any other programming language. 

> Fun fact: variables is one of the most common thing in every programming language. But, their syntax is different in every language

The syntax for variables in css is a bit complicated. But it will come handy. So, why not ? You declare all the variables in the **::root ** selector. Like this:

```css
::root{

   variables here...

}
```

Then to declare a variable's name you enter the name with two "--" ( dashes ) in front of the name. Something like this.

```css
::root{

--name: ;

}
```

Now inside this "--name" you can store any css code like colours, certain animation, width, height, margin and everything. Here's an example for you

```css

::root{

--background: black;
--box-anime: box-turn 2s infinite;
--height: 45vw;

}

```

Now, does it make sense. But how do you use them. Well that's simple, just enter the name of the variable in the var() function. Like this:

```css
element{
   background: var(--bg);
}
```

That's all

## But, why variables

Variables in css let you change data dynamically suppose you have a colour let's say orange. When you click a button orange should change into black. Well for this you select every element in js and then change the background colour of every element individually. This will take a ton of time. With, CSS variable you take the "--color" variable and change it. Well, that's more simple. It can also simplify your process if you have dark and light mode shifting in your application. It's useful to make responsive website simply when used along with media queries. So, give it a try

Comment, if you have any doubts. 

##Thanks for reading 😉..

Kubernetes and Docker Desktop for Fast Local Development
Tags: kubernetes, docker
Published: 2024-05-08 15:11:33

[Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/blog/how-kubernetes-works-under-the-hood-with-docker-desktop/) can run a Kubernetes node that is accessible locally. It enables you to build and re-build local Docker images and have them available to Kubernetes pods for deployments.

For typical deployments in Kubernetes, you will want to specify a version tag for a Docker image.

For local development with Docker Desktop and Kubernetes, you can set the tag of the image `latest` or `development`, any tag without a version number.

You must also set the deployment's `restartPolicy` to `Always` and the container's `imagePullPolicy` to `IfNotPresent`. This ensures that Kubernetes can pull the image from Docker Desktop, and that it will always restart with the latest updated image.

Then you can run `kubectl rollout restart deployment $DEPLOYMENT_NAME` to restart the pod and pull the latest development image.

The iteration cycle looks like this:
1. Write code
2. Build the image with the `development` tag
3. Restart the deployment

You can use [fswatch](https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch) or some other watch tool to monitor changes in source code and kick off the Docker image rebuild and then the Kubernetes deployment restart.

For monitoring the local Kubernetes cluster, I have been using [Headlamp](https://headlamp.dev/) which is available as a [Docker Desktop extension](https://hub.docker.com/extensions/headlamp/headlamp-docker-extension).
MongoDB aggregation lookup to compare a string and ObjectId field easily
Published: 2024-05-08 14:43:48


If you are looking for a solution to aggregate a lookup between string and ObjectId, look no further.

![Mapping between ObjectId and String](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2700/1*flMFmGJDD3FvVXthLS2HGg.jpeg)

Let’s say you have the following collections.

![Example Image of the mongo data](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2700/1*ChHVoBH-CIrw940_PXaVcg.png)

Now you want to expand the “apartments” field by the collection entry. Usually you would do this:

    db.getCollection("buildings").aggregate([
     {
         $lookup: {
             from: "apartments",
             localField: "apartments._id",
             foreignField: "_id",
             as: "apartments"
         }
     }
    ])

Your result will mostly be this:

    { 
     ...
      "apartments" : [  ], 
     ...
    }

The “apartments” field is empty, because MongoDB in **most versions can not compare string and ObjectId correctly.**

## How to fix this problem without changing your data or bad performance of “unwinds”

Most solutions in the web will use $unwind and then $addField, but this is very time consuming when you have a large amount of documents.

Here is a very easy solution for that: use ***$addField with $map.***

    [{
        $addFields: {
          "apartments": {
            $map: {
              input: "$apartments",
              in: {
                $toObjectId: "$$this._id" 
              }
            }
          }
        }
    },
    {
         $lookup: {
             from: "apartments",
             localField: "apartments",
             foreignField: "_id",
             as: "apartments"
         }
     }
    ]

After running the query above, your results will look like how you would expect it:

    { ...
      "title" : "Pearl Court", 
      "apartments" : 
          [ 
            { 
                "_id" : ObjectId("6425695ba69a66001b667dc5"), 
                "title" : "Unit 007", 
                "description" : "Lorem ipsum..." 
                ...
            } 
          ],   
      ...
    }

Hope I helped you save a lot of time looking for a solution to expand your collections.

Go Vs Node Vs Python Vs PHP. Do you context switch?
Tags: go, python, discuss, node
Published: 2024-05-08 15:08:32

I do context-switching a lot. I manage a large architecture with various moving parts in multiple languages.

There is this old JS node script that I needed to make changes to, I get the need for TypeScript but I just don't have the time to rewrite the whole thing.

Nonetheless, man! "async await", nearly the whole script everywhere, it's ugly and disrupts my flow.

Python on the other hand is a lot better, but maybe I haven't installed the right vscode extensions. The type-hinting sucks! In a large project, I constantly forget the field names, and also lack of interfaces is a bit annoying.

PHP, which I enjoy, is still one of my favorite languages (Is my second language after C# so very fond of it) but yeah constantly forget the needle/haystack thing, and Laravel keeps getting more and more bloated.

Golang! The mighty Golang, something about structs and the formatting package. I just open Vscode and voila! Logic just flows into code like poetry.

Nearly all of what I need is in the standard lib, and the IntelliSense just works. The package manager is also quite efficient, just "go mod tidy" and everything is downloaded and ready within seconds.

Finally! "go run build", and deploy! Done! Nothing to install or configure, even if I am using drivers like MongoDB or MySQL, the host machine doesn't need apt packages.

How's your experience with these languages?
12 comments from employees working at OpenProject
Published: 2024-05-08 14:37:33

**[OpenProject](https://www.openproject.org/) is an open source project management tool.**

At a 2024 offsite event for its employees, OpenProject asked: 

_How would you describe working here?_

Here's what they said...

1. "I like building stuff."

2. "All employees have a say."

3. "I feel alive working here."

4. "It's all about how we treat our customers and the community."

5. "It's how our software helped someone become good in what they do."

6. "We have colleagues from all around the world."

7. "We're a global team working for an international customer base."

8. "Your word is being heard; I like that a lot."

9. "You work with people you like and respect."

10. "We value everybody's work."

11. "We want to reach a higher good."

12. "Family."

**COO, Robin Wagner, [recently said](https://www.openproject.org/blog/employee-blog-robin-wagner/):**

"We are intentional about how we hire and form relationships with our employees. Remote-first also allows OpenProject to hire the best people from around the globe, and it allows us to be present in different time zones. It’s a win-win."

The company is fully remote now, and some of the employees work together in the Berlin office regularly. To unite the whole company, they hold offsite gatherings focused on getting to know each other. Employees from around Europe, the US, Central America, and Africa made the trek.

"It means so much to all of us to get to know each other on a human level," said Robin.
Linux Essentials / Gerenciador de Pacotes
Tags: linux, opensource, learning, certification
Published: 2024-05-08 14:34:21

# Linux Essentials

Estou estudando para tirar minha primeira certificação em Linux. Pretendo compartilhar aqui alguns dos tópicos que tenho estudado, com o intuito de contribuir com o estudo de outras pessoas também.
## apt-get

Usado para instalação de softwares através de pacotes. Os pacotes contem arquivos usados para sustentar a aplicações que são instaladas através deles, com bibliotecas, arquivos de configuração, processos e outros tipos de arquivo para sustentação e administração do software.
O apt-get é considerado um gerenciador de pacotes de alto nível, e por isso faz o gerenciamento das dependências necessárias para instalação dos pacotes. 

Outros exemplos de gerenciadores de alto nível são: YUM, DNF e ZYPPER.

Os pacotes são organizados em repositórios com diretórios específicos para cada tipo de arquivo, facilitando sua manutenção e organização.

Exemplo:
pacote 
	arquivo de configuração ->   /etc
	bibliotecas                       ->   /lib
	comandos adm                ->  /sbin
	processos                         ->  /proc

Para encontrarem as novas atualizações os gerenciadores de pacotes utilizam repositórios, no Debian, é possível encontrar as lista de repositórios no diretório:  /etc/apt/sources.list 

## Comandos

Atualização dos pacotes

```bash
sudo apt-get update
```

Instalação dos novos pacotes

```bash
sudo apt-get upgrade
```

Instalação de um ou mais pacotes

```bash
sudo apt-get install nome_do_pacote
```

Remove os pacote mas mantem os arquivos de configuração

```bash
sudo apt-get remove nome_do_pacote
```

Remove e exclui os arquivos de configuração do pacote 

```bash
sudo apt-get purge nome_do_pacote
```

Overriding Salesforce File Fields When Files Uploaded Using Lightning File Upload LWC

Creating a Single Image Slider using Swiper.js
Tags: webdev, javascript, beginners, tutorial
Published: 2024-05-08 14:05:51


[Swiper.js](https://swiperjs.com/) is a powerful library for creating touch sliders and carousels for mobile and desktop websites. 

One interesting use case is creating a slider with only one image, where each slide shows a different section of a larger image. This can be useful for showcasing various parts of a product, a process, or a story. Here's how you can achieve this:

**Step 1: Crop the Image**
Start by cropping the image into sections that have a consistent width and height. E.g. You can use an image editing tool to crop the image into sections, e.g. With dimensions of 268 × 840 pixels each.

**Step 2: Adjust the Slider Configuration**
Next, adjust the Swiper configuration to fit your cropped images. Here's an example of how you might configure the slider:

```html
<div class="swiper my-slider" data-slides-per-view="2.5" data-allow-touch-move="1" data-centered-slides="1" data-autoplay="0" data-centered-slides-bounds="1">
    <div class="swiper-wrapper">
        @for ($i = 0; $i <= 6; $i++)
        <img src="{{ asset("cropped-images/ci-{$i}.png") }}" alt="Purchasing Process" class="w-full swiper-slide">
        @endfor
    </div>
</div>
```

In this example, I used **slides per view** (`data-slides-per-view="2.5"`) to adjust the slide's width of the cropped sections' image. In the swiper.js properties, I also set **space between** to **0** so there will be no gaps between the cropped image, and looked like one image. 

You can configure your settings based on your specific design needs. For example, in the [sandbox demo](https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/competent-glitter-wdzfzz?file=%2Findex.html) I created, I used a different of configurations. You can check the example [here](https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/competent-glitter-wdzfzz?file=%2Findex.html).


**Troubleshooting**
At the time of writing, the most recent version swiper.js is version 11. If you are using an older version, you may encounter issues with the width of your images. To resolve this, you can adjust the `.swiper-slide` class to ensure that the cropped images fit well within the slider while still looked as a single image. Just override the `.swiper-slide` class and set it as follows:

```css
.swiper-slide {
   flex-shrink: 1 !important;
}
```

Then play around the **slides per view** value to get your desired results.


Creating a [Swiper.js](https://swiperjs.com/) slider with cropped images can be a creative way to showcase content on your website. By carefully cropping your images and adjusting the Swiper configuration and styles, you can create a visually appealing slider that engages your users.

8 Key Actions for Testing Your SaaS Product Before Market Rollout ☑
Tags: testing, programming, coding, softwaredevelopment
Published: 2024-05-08 13:40:19

Before your product ventures out into the market, it needs to pass through a series of checks and balances. Without this careful testing, you risk staining its reputation, missing out on customers, and losing valuable chances.

Launching a SaaS product is like embarking on an exciting adventure. It involves a blend of hard work, creativity, and strategic thinking. Yet, in the rush to share your creation with the world, one vital step often gets overlooked: testing.

Your SaaS might boast the most groundbreaking features, but if it doesn’t function properly, all your efforts might be wasted. A single bad experience with your product can escalate into a public relations disaster, ruining your brand’s image. Testing is key — it helps uncover and fix any issues that could harm user experience and shake trust in your brand.

Let’s dive in!

## 1. Functional Testing
Functional testing is like checking if every part of your SaaS product works correctly and does what it’s supposed to do. It’s about making sure features function smoothly, meet user needs, and give the right results. Here’s how we do it:

- Test each component to make sure it does its job accurately and efficiently.
- Check how your SaaS product interacts with other systems, ensuring data exchange follows set standards.
- Confirm that user workflows are easy, efficient, and error-free.
- Report any issues or unexpected behaviors, including technical errors and logical inconsistencies.

## 2. Security Testing
Security testing is crucial to protect your SaaS product from cyber threats that could harm your business. By assessing your product’s security, you can find weaknesses and strengthen defenses against attacks. Here’s how we handle it:

- Identify vulnerabilities like outdated software or weak authentication methods.
- Use ethical hacking techniques to uncover weaknesses attackers might exploit.
- Encrypt sensitive data to keep it safe both at rest and during transmission.
- Follow strict regulations like GDPR or HIPAA to protect user data.

## 3. User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
UAT is like the final test drive for your SaaS product with real users, making sure it’s user-friendly and meets expectations. Here’s how we do it:

- Let real users test the product to see how they use it in the real world.
- Gather feedback to improve the product’s usability and features.
- Make iterative improvements based on user suggestions, enhancing usability and functionality.
