Blerjan's take on WP Page Builder in 2024

What the WordPress core team attempted to natively integrate into the platform for web design, responding to advancements in platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and others—became possible through the use of page builders and dynamic themes, which expanded the capabilities of what could be built with little to no code in WordPress. Building a website in WordPress years ago was vastly different from the possibilities we have today, yet we're still far from what it could be! Currently, there are many alternatives on the market, which is a good thing because users will likely choose the one that suits them best...

Goodbye ProtonPass, Welcome Apple’s Passwords App

Yes, a password manager app became essential for me after years of losing my 2FA codes (unlucky man). I discovered Bitwarden and decided to purchase the premium personal plan for just $1 a month. It worked great for a while, but eventually, I started experiencing login issues. After some time struggling with that, the Proton team introduced ProtonPass, which directly competed with Bitwarden in terms of features, pricing, and more. Since ProtonPass offered exactly what I needed, I decided to switch. What did I like about ProtonPass? - The overall user experience - Browser extensions - Password generator with 2FA...

The importance of micro-failures

Gary was talking about the micro-failures he experienced since childhood, and it really stuck with me. I started working with servers when I was 13 or 14, and I failed many times trying to sell them.

Tuta.com - My go to email service

Tuta is more than just an email service to me; it's the reason I fall in love with digital products every day. The attention to detail, stability, passion, and promises kept are what set it apart. Finding the right email service wasn’t easy for me, mainly because I’m particular about the small details. I’ve tried dozens of email platforms, but none felt like the right fit. Some of the recent ones I used include Infomaniak kMail, which I really liked, but it had some weird connection issues that made it uncomfortable to use, despite the nice AI features they’re adding....

Gjema 1 Punë - Finding a job with joy!

You read that right! At Excomm Solutions, we’re creating a platform that aims to provide exactly what a job portal should: a quicker, easier, and more enjoyable job search experience. The name is inspired by a common question I often hear, “Find me 1 job” and I really want the platform to assist with just that. Additionally, this platform aims to showcase to the WordPress community and beyond what can be achieved with no-code and low-code development. Throughout this journey, I will document the steps, processes, and tools we use for building it. I hope you find the idea exciting!...
