The unstable release of Magento 2.4.0 :o
September 3, 2020
I've been talking to quite some agencies that have postponed an upgrade from 2.3 to 2.4 until Magento 2.4.1 comes out. Why? Because of the instability that a new major release brings. To quote them. Agencies have learned this from bad experience in the past. I'm not surprised but yet I am surprised. This blog is a humble overview of what kind of (in)stability 2.4.0 might bring.
Reacticon v3 online, v4 moved to 2021
August 7, 2020
Quite some time ago already - maybe about 4 months ago - we decided to postpone Reacticon v3 from June 2020 to October 2020 because of the Corona crisis.

But that would not be entirely correct.
What is wrong with my Magento 2 replacement packages?
July 24, 2020

Version 1.6 of the EmailTester extension for Magento 2 was just released a little while ago. No dramatic changes. However, there are some really great additions to this productivity tool, that are worthwhile sharing with you via a blog.
Improving Vue Storefront 1 compilation times
May 22, 2020
Vue Storefront 1 is a great tool for building a lean JavaScript frontend for Magento 1 or Magento 2. However, it has some flaws, one of which being the compilation time of Vue, TypeScript and ES6 code into regular browser code. There is a simple solution though: A custom Webpack configuration. I've put together a sample config, which I'm happy to share with the world.
Rate throttling for Magento 2 GraphQL
May 14, 2020
The GraphQL API of Magento 2.3+ comes with numerous endpoints. However, some of these endpoints offer little protection against bastards that want to abuse this. My new Yireo_GraphQlRateLimiting offers a rate limiting to try to reduce abuse. Let's see why it is needed.
