What is Docker? Docker is a software platform that allows you to package, distribute, and run applications within self-contained units called containers. These containers include everything the application needs, like code, runtime, and libraries, ensuring consistent execution across different environments. How this can be useful? There are many possible uses of Docker containers. You can use them for testing for instance. If you have a website that runs on PHP 8.1 and want to make sure that switching to PHP 8.3 doesn’t break anything, you…Continue Reading “Running PHPRunner application as a Docker container”

As many of you know, we recently launched a side project named PicTur. This is a website, built with the help of PHPRunner, that allows users build beautiful travel stories. Instead of letting you pictures collect dust you can create a travel story and share with the world. Take a look open an account and maybe create a story or two.
This website was built with the help of PHPRunner and was heavily customized. We will post series of articles talking about the most interesting parts of this project. Let us start by showing how pages like login, register and remind password were prettified. First, we found a good login template at Carrd, customized it a bit and imported CSS into PHPRunner.
This is the end result:

ASPRunner.Net is, in my opinion, the best software on the market to build secure, role-based data driven workflows and complex reports and dashboards.
Over the years, we started to use more and more stored procedures to be called by custom buttons and table events. It seemed to be more efficient having SQL Server handle some of the heavy lifting and more complicated tasks.
Now we are using another platform to perform some heavy lifting and adding brand new capabilities.
Our talented Lead RPA Developer, Michael DiPoffi, wrote some custom class files that we could easily integrate into ASPRunner.Net. We can now call APIs that will initiate automated workflows, passing parameters from the app to the enterprise RPA (Robotic Process Automation) execution server via normal table events and custom buttons. The class files also retrieve responses from the server to ensure it was successfully executed. This is a game changer.
Since in my organization, Automation, Enterprise Data and App Development are all under one area of IT, this was inevitable.

The problem is that all themes are implemented differently, there is no standard they follow and they cannot be “imported”. However, it is possible to make your project look exactly like any of those themes and this article will teach you how to do this.
For the inspiration, we will be using Material Dashboard Dark Edition theme by Creative Tim. Here is how it looks:

We have built a little quest that is both fun and educational and dedicated to the topic of web development. There are eight questions total. Most of them are quite simple but some will require a bit of thinking. All of these questions can be answered with the help of your web browser and developer tools. We recommend using Google Chrome and Chrome Developer Tools but other browsers offer similar functionality.
You would need to view the page source, use Javascript console, use the Network tab in Developer Tools, use colorpicker etc. Your web browser is all you need.
