I have finished an MVP!

For the longest time I had wanted to create an online service useful enough for people to pay for it. There are different ways to identify a good product idea, and one that is often heard is to build something that you need.For the longest time I thought that I didn't need anything worth building.

Last year though, I realized that I was getting frustrated with my expense tracker. It was a mobile only solution, quite cumbersome to use, and lacking a few features that I really wanted. So here we go, I built mine! It's called Gentle Finance, because it aims at making tracking your expenses gentler on your emotions than the existing solutions. Its aim is to make it as SMOOTH as possible to track your own expenses.

You can request access to the beta version on the Gentle Finance landing page.

If you do, let me know what you think via the form!

Installing Postgres on Linux Lite (Ubuntu)

I have followed these instructions from the Postgres documentation : # Create the file repository configuration: sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt $(lsb_release -cs)-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list' # Import the repository signing key: wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add - # Update the package lists: sudo apt-get update # Install the latest version of PostgreSQL. # If you want a specific version, use 'postgresql-12' or similar instead of 'postgresql': sudo apt-get -y install postgresql   After that, I was having trouble authenticating to Postgresql after installing the db server on Linux Lite.  This stackoverflow answer was very helpful. Open the file pg_hba.conf . For Ubuntu, use for example /etc/postgresql/13/main$ sudo nano pg_hba.conf and change this line at the bottom of the file, it should be the first line of the settings: local all ...

Fixing x-invalid-end-tag lint error on Vuejs

  My situation is: Coding with vue in a Vue file. Using the Vetur plugin in VS code It then generates an error of type x-invalid-end-tag in a quite random fashion. To solve it, I have found one simple trick in this github issue: // .eslintrc.js module.exports = {  //... rules:  { 'vue/no-parsing-error': [2, { 'x-invalid-end-tag': false }]  }  }

How to generate a self-signed certificate with Openssl (using git windows bash)

I recently needed to generate a self-signed certificate to test a website locally. I wasn't familiar with the process, and I wanted to share here what I learned. First, we need a private key. A private key is a long series of characters that must be kept secret. In my context, it will be used to encrypt messages before the client and the server, in a way secure enough to prevent anybody to spy on them. Once the private key is created, we need to generate another file that will be the "signature" of our certificate. Among other data, this file will contains some information specific to the server's context: country, organization's name, email address of the organization's technical contact, etc. Once this signature is established, there are two paths: - Path A: If we want our server to be publicly accessible, every browser in the world must able to trust the certificate. In order for that to happen, we need to send our signature file to one of the official SSL ...
