    My 2026 Tools Stack

    It’s 2026 and I made myself a promise that I will blog more about technical web things. Nothing new because I do this every year, but this year I will also make a YouTube video for each article. This is the first “artico-video” in the series. Yes, I just invented that word.

  • The unnecessary “Pluginophobia” in WordPress

    The unnecessary “Pluginophobia” in WordPress

    Once a year, a redundant topic reappears on Twitter within the WordPress Community, which sparks a weird fear of using too many plugins as add-ons.

    Automated Testing, what can they bring

    Please let me set your expectations from scratch. I really want to highlight the fact that I’m NOT an Automated Testing Guru, neither a testing-driven developer.

    Patch my site to 94/100 score on page insights

    When you build a website, you want it to reach as many people as possible. The quality of your content will naturally engage more visitors and a good presence on the social media channels will help you spread the word. But most of your users will reach you through search engines — that’s why it’s…
