Thanks to cloud storage and sync utilities, backing up important files has become much more easy and seamless in recent years. What works great with documents, photos and what have you doesn't though with code projects. Git, thousands of tiny files and the ever heavy node_modules folder do not play nicely with most file syncing programs - but I have a solution!

For a pretty long time, I've been looking for a new mobile companion when being on the go. After weeks of considering many different laptops, I finally made a decision and bought a Huawei Matebook D for around 600€ (~$680). Considering the rather low price for what Huawei claims to offer here, can it actually deliver?

A couple redesigns ago (preferred time unit here), I stated that I wanted to use this blog to talk about a variety of topics and hobbies I'm interested in. Truthfully, I never touched anything besides programming or tech-related stuff. That all changes today with the introduction of yet another series with probably this being the only ever episode. Hot Sauce will cover some of my favorite dishes and their recipes.

For a good while now I've been running my Android phone with no Google Apps, and I don't regret trying it out. It's a really good experience without it. Want to learn how to ungoogle your Android as well? This post is for you.

Personally, I really enjoy other people's blog posts or videos about their desk setups, as every single one has things that set it apart from others. I'd like to think mine has some unique requirements and properties as well, so I decided to write this post.

In one of my recent posts, I stated that I ditched Google for privacy reasons. Having used their services for doing calendar, file syncing, note taking and task tracking activities, this left me kind of stranded. Luckily, there is Nextcloud that steps into place and saves the day. Here are my impressions from using it for about a month now.

Recently, I started caring more about my privacy. As I found it to be rather tough to find alternatives to the services I was already using, I decided to write this post listing alternative apps and services.

In this post, I'll show you how to create this simple, yet beautiful input field with Vue.js.

Microsoft Edge has been around since early 2015, but it's never been really able to take off. It's market share is currently at about 4%, or about three times less than the ones from Internet Explorer - which must be depressing for Microsoft. Also, many would argue that Edge doesn't even cut it for non-power users. So after 3 years, is this still the case?

Look who's back at it again, bringing you yet another redesign (you didn't expect any content anyways, did you?). Welcome to the 2018 version of this site - basically the same, just with some more sauce.
