How To Add Webviews to a Visual Studio Code Extension

Display custom HTML, CSS, and JS inside VS Code — It’s weird how there aren’t enough tutorials online about building a VS Code extension. I’m someone who always relies on a mix of Stack Overflow and YouTube tutorials, so it took me quite some time to figure out how to build a VS Code extension in order to save snippets. …

How to Keep Users Logged in When you Deploy Updates to your Node.js Site on Heroku

A tutorial on how to keep user sessions saved when Heroku restarts the server so they don’t log out. This is for Node.js, Express and express-session on Heroku. I’m embarrassed to admit it took me over a year to realize that users were getting logged out daily. Nobody complained and I’m used to testing from different accounts so I never noticed. Until I started work on a Chrome extension…

As somebody who loves meeting people, going out and dressing up, I would never have chosen to work from home. Yet I couldn’t been happier. — It all started when I was a bored student at university. My degree was super easy and I had a lot of free time. I did a bunch of stuff on the side to stay busy, and one of those was earning some money from freelance writing. When the time…
