Ctrl-click directive in Angular
Angular has lot of built-in directives for listening for events like click, dblclick, mousein, mouseout etc. But sometimes you need something more sophisticated, like detect ctrl-click.

But what if you have several AWS profiles, eg: several private ones and one or more which belongs to a company? Your private one is the default and you use it to deploy … Aaaah, […]
Dockerizing Angular/Web3 app
Web development these days is often more about combining various npm packages then actuall programming. And the packages incompactibility can be extremely frustrating at times. When you add crypto to this mix, it becomes even wilder. Truffle framework promises to ease some problems with deployment of smart contracts, but it introduces other hard-to-debug problems.

Insert script tags in Angular components
Sometimes you just need to insert 3rd party script tags into Angular Components. It is definitely not very common, and Angular does not make it easy for you. What ever script tag you define your component’s template, will be simply cleared out. Not even a html comment will remain. So I you really need to insert a […]
