I make tutorials on learning custom WordPress development, front-end development, and various frameworks and tools such as SCSS, Cypress, and Vue.js.
Looking for a place to expand your custom WordPress skills? Want to learn front end development deeper?
I started this website as a place to share my portfolio and projects, but slowly started documenting solutions to problems I ran into while doing professional development. As I grow, I hope to help other developers fill in their gaps of knowledge, learn difficult concepts fully, and learn technologies that will boost their career.
There are lots of developers out there, but the ones who seek to improve and learn ultimately end up at the top.
I mainly teach custom WordPress development, Sage.io WordPress stack, Laravel Blade Templating, JavaScript(ES6), and CSS/SCSS.

In our last post, we learned about Laravel Blade and its capablities. That post only scratched the surface, blade can do so much more! In this post, we’ll dive into conditional statements and rendering. Every good templating engine has simple ways to conditionally show blocks of markup. Blade makes this very easy. If you’re used […]
Git’s amend command is so simple, yet so powerful. I personally use it multiple times a day and even have a bash alias for it. Why is amending so useful? The answer is simple: programmers make lots of mistakes. Mistakes are a part of the job. Git amend fixes mistakes as simple as a commit […]
For years now, SASS has given CSS the functionalities that native CSS wish it could. These includes variables, selector nesting, mixins, extends, and much more. One simple but very powerful thing SASS gives you is the ability to outsource a similar set of style rules into a reusable “function”. This lets you centralize style logic […]
Defining bash aliases has always been a neat little trick for saving time on the command line. When learning about aliases, a few ideas may immediately jump out. There are also some you may not have thought about. I hope to uncover at least one of those. In this post, I’ll list 5 of my […]
We’ve all been there. We don’t want to do it, we don’t think we need to do it, but it’s necessary. Unfortunately, Internet Explorer (11) is a necessary evil for most business requirements. Certain businesses even require earlier versions than that. *shudder* Fair warning, this article is only keeping the most recent version(11) in mind. […]
Cypress is an end-to-end testing framework designed to provide coverage for front-end UIs. Learning how to automate tests has its learning curve, but the benefits grow with your application’s complexity. I was tasked to test a process that involves uploading multiple types of files. In particular, application/pdf and image/* mime-type files. Doing this with Cypress […]
When learning a new programming language, a calculator is a great way to flex your ability. Going the extra mile and tacking on extra features proves to be an even more valuable experience. In this article, I will show you how to implement a neat feature: the ability to multiply without an * operator.
If you develop custom WordPress themes, there’s no doubt ACF (pro) is in your toolbox. Simply put, it feels like a natural extension for developing custom themes. If you still haven’t picked up this tool, I’d recommend hopping over to their website and see what you’ve been missing. Out of the box, you get powerful […]
There are four posts before this one. You can check out part 1(getting up and running, part 2(setting up the build), part 3(nesting and variables), part 4(diving into mixins and extends). Mixins and extends are cool, right? In our last article, we dived into the basics of both and have a good idea of what […]
If you’ve been in web development long enough, you’ve probably heard of SASS/SCSS. That’s no surprise, considering it has been around for so long(over 10 years), and it’s included in many popular build systems. Webpack builds such as create-react-app and Vue CLI templates come with easy SASS support. If you’re using your own build system, […]
