Web email HTML and CSS template

In the last chapter you are creating a perfect beautiful layout for your first web page using HTML and CSS. I hope that you really learn a lot about how HTML works, you start to begin recognizing the structure of HTML and remember some basic HTML tags. This chapter is talking about CSS, you will learn step by step creating a CSS style and understand some of the CSS properties and attributes.

Here's a step-by-step guide to creating a `style.css` file for your project:

To begin with styling any HTML page, you can create a separated file with file extension dot CSS. Create a new file called `style.css` in your project directory. And then place it in the same directory as your HTML files, then in your HTML file, you call the CSS using <link> tag inside the <head>. So for sort your calling your CSS like this:

Open the `style.css` file in a text editor or an integrated development environment, in the previous article I recommended you to use VS Code.

In any code you must understand how to add a little documentation for your codes. You can add a comment to describe the purpose of the CSS file and any sections you plan to include. For example:

Define the global styles that apply to the entire document. For example, you might set the font family, font size, and background color for the entire application:

Move on to styling the navbar. You can target the `navbar` class and apply specific styles to it. For example:

Continue by styling the sidebar. Target the relevant classes or elements within the sidebar and apply styles to them. For example:

Move on to styling the inbox list. Target the relevant classes or elements within the list and apply styles accordingly. For example:

Manually open your HTML file on the browser and verify that the styles defined in `style.css` are applied to your HTML elements by reloading your webpage. You can reload your browser by pressing F5.

So, congratulations on creating your first `style.css` file! It is quite an achievement. You can continue to modify and add styles as needed to achieve the desired appearance of your application.

So here I created another full HTML and CSS code for you to learn about HTML and CSS. It is a simple layout of an email platform like Gmail using only HTML, CSS and Javascript to render the list item in the inbox section. I hope that you are really looking into the code and learning each part of the CSS code to make it layouting the page and create a wonderful theme to the webpage.

Spring Kafka - how to use ReplyingKafkaTemplate send and reply synchronously

Microservice Spring with Apache Kafka Kafka is an asynchronous messaging queuing system, but when you have a case in your project that you need to have the result immediately from another service you can do that quite easily. Kafka from the client side produces a message to the server side, then waiting for the server to return back the message exactly what the client wants. It’s identified in the kafka header request named KafkaHeaders.CORRELATION_ID and a topic where the server should send. If the server side produces the same correlation id to the same topic in the request, then the client side will catch that message as its reply. Although you can work with kafka from a different framework and language other than Java and Spring. Here’s in this example i just specifically giving the example of sending and replying kafka messages using Spring Boot. The Project Overview The client-project will send a string message to the server-project over kafka, then the server-project wil

Let’s SSH login using pem to confirm if it’s throwing error or the pem is fine, if error then we need to move to step 2 to fix it: ssh adam@10.0.0.123  -i server-cert.pem And here's the usual error that will throw if your pem file is not ready for SSH login. You need to follow the next step to make your pem certificate ready to login to your server via SSH. 2. Open Windows Explorer, then right-click on the pem file, then select "Properties". Navigate to the "Security" tab, and click "Advanced" 3. Disable inheritance 4. Delete all permissions, so it doesn’t have any permission 5. Now add you as the only only owner.

MySQL and MariaDB password As already mentioned in the title of this blog, this error message sometimes occurred when we are trying to update our root password database, either MySQL or MariaDB, The error says: ERROR 1348 (HY000): Column 'Password' is not updatable This is because if we use this SQL command to update our database root password, and it turn out to be Restricted by MySQL to use update on mysql database. UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('1234') WHERE User='root'; The solutions for MySQL Error1348 So you can not update a user password using Update commands, to update the password, use ALTER commands instead. like the following. ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '1234'; And then you need to do the flush privileges to commit previous queries (that alter command above) into the system, simply do like this. flush privileges; So now you have your root with password 1234.

Reactive Spring Logo This is maybe a very simple task, but for those of you that may not be familiar with WebFlux found it difficult to create a Rest API that handles upload and download in Reactive spring application. Create the skeleton Spring project Create a new project, go to start.spring.io , on the dependencies section, add Spring Reactive Web. Generate and extract it into your desired project location. Instead of using spring-boot-starter-web, use spring-boot-starter-webflux instead in your pom.xml. Here’s the pom.xml for our Reactive Rest API project. Create our Rest controller Now that you have set to use WebFlux instead of the usual web, we have to change a little bit in the Controller class that handles the API endpoints. It doesn’t change much but you have to wrap the Response in Mono and the request parameter to FilePart. So our upload and download file controller will look like this. Create utility to handle file upload We need to structure our project better, so we cr
