Principles we use to write CSS for modern browsers

Recently CSS has got a lot of negativity. But I would like to defend it and show, that with good naming convention CSS works pretty well.

My 3 developers team has just developed React.js application with 7668 lines of CSS (and just 2 !important). During one year of development we had 0 issues with CSS. No refactoring typos, no style leaks, no performance problems, possibly, it is the most stable part of our application.

Migrating a Rails project from MySQL to PostgreSQL

Migrating a Rails project from MySQL to PostgreSQL

This brief guide is written from my own experience with migrating a large (~5GB) MySQL database to PostgreSQL for a Rails project.

No warranties, guarantees, support etc. Use at your own risk and, as always, ENSURE YOU MAKE BACKUPS FIRST!

I chose [pgloader][1] because it's extremely fast. YMMV.

  1. Replace mysql2 gem with pg in Gemfile.
  2. Update config/database.yml for PostgreSQL. I used [Rails' template][2] as a starting point.
