Book Review: “Pro PHP Refactoring” by Francesco Trucchia and Jacopo Romei

“Pro PHP Refactoring” written by Francesco Trucchia and Jacopo Romei, published by Apress.
This book is for beginners and professional web developers.

To me it was always just doing what feels right, I never thought about “what technic should I use here…”. If you are like me, and you feel that this book can’t really teach you something, you better take a look at the table of contents [Google Preview in Apress], I’m sure you’ll find few interesting chapters there.

How to Become a Freelance Web Developer – Part 1

Hi,
Before I begin this post, a clarification: I don’t consider myself a superstar web developer or a very experienced freelancer. I do have 4 years of freelance experience behind me, and so all tips and opinions are based on that.

Most of the freelance work I did until now was web development. And it basically included building a website OR web application for a certain customer.

In this article series I will talk about the different stages of project life cycle, the problems you might face and how deal with them.

This part includes the Pitch and Quote, the beginning of each project.
