It's election year in Croatia and we have the privilege of reading promises from various relevant and not-so-relevant political parties. It's the usual mix of lower taxes, less corruption, more transparency, higher retirement pensions, etc. One, in particular, caught my attention: We are creating a web booking platform for private accommodations with a 5% fee.

Last year we switched from trusted Rails to Nuxt.js for our landing pages. Because I am very busy (mostly drinking) I had the most brilliant 'budget' setup on our EC2 instance. I manually installed Nginx, pm2, git and Node. I also did Let's Encrypt bullshit dance that I feel too shaken to talk about. I'll pretent that it just worked and that they did not make arbitraty changes that would break update calls and then block me for a week for 'thottling' reasons because I neglected to read their update info from that morning...

You want to build fast, easy to change sites at extremely low cost? You came to the right place.

Don't take our word for it - take the word of the leading industry sources. Our diligence and passion has been recognized and we are now rated among top developers among nearly a hundred competitors.

You have clicked on this article, most likely, because you have come up with a groundbreaking idea but you have almost no experience or knowledge about the IT sphere...

The 2019 became the year when it was finally clear that oursourcing software development is no longer an option but THE option.

In this blog post we will be showing you how to implement a two-factor authentication solution for Rails Active Admin by using Google Authenticator in combination with a custom mailer for sending the QR registration code.

In this post I'll go over various options for scaling your business web platform. We'll take a look at five different approaches. There is no wrong or right approach, it is just a matter of what aspects you want to emphasize and what your real world needs are.

So today I will explain the core of the problem (easy to copy/paste) for deactivation of the User model with Devise.

If you were to ask yourself – what is the essence of any software system – what would you say? (that is, what would you have said without having read the title of this post 😃).

Ever went through the painful process of constantly switching users to test your app? We built our gem for testing different user roles.

Just a couple of days ago Beta 1 of Rails 5.1 got released, bringing with it a slew of new features. Most prominent among them being the inclusion of Webpack. For the uninitiated, Webpack serves as a bundling tool for your project's JavaScript.

Almost a year has flown by ever since I started learning programming from scratch. As a result of that, I am writing this blog post to help new and old developers with some tips I learned in this beautiful world of programming.

So, you’ve decided to build a new disruptive product that will earn you glory and money? Congratulations… welcome to the club and good luck!

When working on bigger systems, it helps having your database model visualized. There are many great solutions but a few of them are free. If you fit in the 'small enough' not to use [ER/Studio Data Architect](https://www.idera.com/er-studio-data-architect-software) (the best tool IMHO) but big enough to want to see data visualized-category, then read on.

When faced with real life complexity there rarely is an easy way out or a silver bullet solution. Here I will describe the model I've come up with during years of trial and error. The solution presented here is as far as I know not a mainstream one and it could be considered somewhat controversial.

To have a successful remote agency/client relationship you need three main ingredients: 1. Trust, 2. Effective communication, 3. Delivering results. We won't be covering the trust or delivering results parts here, just the second part of the equation.

Once upon a time, I was given the task to send an image captured on IOS to our Rails back-end server and at first I figured: 'Wow, this can’t be such a big deal, I know how to take an image and I know how to make a request so why would this be any different from a normal request. Why would an image be special?'.

Quite recently I had the chance of implementing a log-in/authentication system for one of our mobile applications. Resources available for both the Android and iOS eco-systems are fairly exhaustive but comparisons of the pros and cons of each and every one are not readily available, at least not of the type I would like.

In this post I'll try and describe how to set up SSL for your Rails app. This solution is free and will automatically extend the certificate once the certificate runs its course.

In this post we'll describe on how to use OmniAuth in combination with Rails and Devise to support authentication of existing and new users without asking for email/password combinations.
