The History of Ecommerce: 1979 to 2023

It was interesting writing about this topic and seeing the evolution of ecommerce. So many of what we consider as basics in ecommerce now required a lot of innovation from the early businesses that adopted it.

Hiya! I've compiled a list of some of the currently active Tumblr blogs that are dedicated to all things coding and programming - this includes frontend dev, backend dev, web dev, game dev, etc. These are blogs I also follow (I try to follow as many as I can) and I like what they post, and I just wanted to share it with more people!

I will keep updating this post whenever a new blogger pops up or if some blogs deactivate - some of my fav blogs deactivated which is super sad since I loved seeing their coding posts on my dashboard! Anyways, onto the blogs!

Documentation is an important asset for all developers. There are many tools that allow you to easily create a documentation website and even generate some of it from code. These 3 tools I’ve used personally to create documentation at my job, but there are other tools that you can find online to help you with your specific use case.

Last week Heroku announced that they’re discontinuing their free tier and add one. This lead many developers to find alternatives, as heroku’s free plan allowed developers to host a variety of small and demo projects.

The 4 hosting providers listed here are some of the alternatives available for Heroku. The free plans can generally allow developers to host demos and small projects.

Do you use Heroku? And have you migrated to another hosting after this announcement?

Today I want to share with you guys some tips about writing tutorials ✍🏻 Here’s a summary, but you can also read the longer version below:

1. Keep introductions short 📏: many of us find tutorials through online search and we use them for specific purposes. For example, to resolve an issue or learn how to do something. If you, as a technical writer, can cut as much info as possible from the introduction, you help the developer reach the part they need much easier.

2. Give clear context for code blocks 🤔: similar to the first point, a lot of developers want to just find that code block that they think is necessary to fix their issue. So, they might skip ahead to the code block they need and not read what you wrote a paragraph or two before it. Make sure that the line right before the code block exactly indicates where this code block should be used/added. For example, if it’s a command then indicate in which directory the command should be used. If you’re adding a code block, indicate the full path of the file the code block should be added to. If the code block should be added in a specific line, make sure to indicate that as well.

3. Don’t forget imports ❌: Many of us use auto import extensions when coding and don’t need to manually import dependencies when using them in the code. However, a lot of beginners might not be familiar with that and can find it confusing. Although you don’t always need to target every developer level, the more you can ensure everyone can follow along with your tutorial without being confused the better.

4. Add descriptive alt text and images 📸: Accessibility is very important to ensure everyone can use websites similarly. If the blogging platform you use allows this, make sure you add descriptive alt texts for your image.
