Continuous Deployment

Part 2 of 2

Continuous Deployment In previous article Continuous Integration with Strider I demonstrated how to set up continuous Integration, that means how to test the code automatically and find out if it is the newest changes to code broke it or not. Now that you are automatically testing your commits, the next logical step in automation process would be to release our tested code to live website. We would want it to happen automatically, when all tests pass.

Continuous Integration with Strider

Part 1 of 2

Manual deployments of yesterdays We, developers, are producing websites or applications for many years now. What kinds of tasks needs to be done, before we see the changes live on web. This was a big unknown to me for a very long time. Is my process of deploying the code the best practice? Should I do it other way? When I started creating websites, there was only one task and it was to deliver updated files to web server.

Speed up your website with Pagespeed mod

Speeding up websites Last year, in September 2014, when I was working for one of my clients, I was asked to look for some options on how quickly and easily speed up the loading of the webpages. They were using Apache2 webserver and they didn’t plan to move away from that. At that time, the client hadn’t any frontend developers. Nobody in team had solid knowledge about bower, gulp, less, sass and other cool toys of frontend guys.

Move Local Git Repository to Bitbucket

Collaboration thanks to the remote repository As I described in previous post, when I joined to my current company, we hadn’t any versioning system, not even SVN, and we used to FTP all files to a number of backup folders. I introduced Git on local servers. Everything started to seem better, but after some time we started to work with some people from abroad and one of colleagues started to work from home.

Setting up a Git Repository

Code repositories Repositories these days are one of the basic stones of any software development. It allows teams of people to work together on one piece of software and allow every team member to see who made what changes, when and why. Repositories basically holds the copy of all changes made to code and also gives you the latest, most recent version. I don’t want to go deeply into why is it good and why we (developers) can’t live without it.
