Nowadays it is very common to use Continuous Deployment whether it’s a Personal Hobby website or Enterprise application. It’s tedious to make the code change, log in to the server, and then copy the changed/compiled files manually into the server. It is always good to automate and create a pipeline so that whenever there is a code commit in the version control system (e.g. Github) the pipeline will trigger and do the automatic deployment. GitHub provides Action for the automatic deployment purpose. Let’s see how to utilize Github action and do automatic code deployment in a shared hosting like Godaddy.… Read more: How to setup CICD pipeline in Github Actions for Godaddy

We all write SQL scripts to do database operations. When you are supporting an application that is running in Production it’s very critical when you are modifying the data by running SQL scripts. From web applications, some validation logics are written but when you are updating directly in the table, there is a risk that some wrong data gets modified by mistake. There is another scenario where mistakes can happen. Generally, when we run an update script in a live application there is a standard process to test it in a lower environment first then move it to production. Sometimes… Read more: Self-Validating Script in SQL

There is a myth, the arena of a software developer is dirty. The surrounding of a workstation is full of clutter. They don’t bathe. There is full of dust and smell where they live. The image of the developer is destroyed by the movies and TV series. There are people who live like this but there is no relation between the lifestyle and the work they do. Yes, every programmer or so-called geek may not have time to waste in cleaning every now and then but they are also human and they also wish to have clean plates. Let’s see… Read more: Cleaning-A Software Developer’s Perspective
