The UEMOA FresCoop project, focused on empowering agricultural cooperatives, recently faced a crucial challenge: presenting a complex, multi-stakeholder narrative at a hackathon. Live demos are often high-stakes performances, and for a project like FresCoop, which involves a 10-step user journey from producer to administration, the risk of technical glitches or missed steps can be significant.

Developing a modern web application often involves a frontend framework like React, a backend API, and Docker for deployment. While Docker simplifies much of this, specific challenges can arise, especially when deploying Single Page Applications (SPAs). This post details recent improvements to the devops-portfolio-mern project, focusing on how we tackled common Dockerization pitfalls,

Developing full-stack applications often involves juggling multiple services, databases, and environments. This complexity can be a significant hurdle for developer onboarding and maintaining consistent development, staging, and production environments. Our recent work on the react-fil-rouge project aimed to tackle this challenge head-on by implementing a complete Dockerization strategy.
