In General It was a great experience going to Barcelona for the Spring IO conference. I really tried to get the most out of it. I feel like that worked out cause I learned a lot.

A friend gave me a great tip to have more overview over the docker containers you need to manage. He pointed me to Portainer. Portainer is a lightweight docker container that will make it easier to manage your docker environment.

I made some REST endpoints and some thymeleaf views. Normally I’d prefer to put an Angular application on top of […]

I started at my new job last week. Super exciting stuff! A mix of new and less new technologies. Looking forward to my journey there !
