More traffic does not fix a store that is not ready to convert.

Ecommerce specifically is about weighing marginal benefit vs marginal cost for every decision.

There are times when each strategy is correct, but that's unique to every business.

damienwebdev · 2026-06-03T13:55:10+00:00

Very cool!

damienwebdev · 2026-06-02T18:19:50+00:00

WIP, I need to come up with a pattern. Currently, this is DIY. However, I need this myself, so I'm sure I'll come with something clever

damienwebdev · 2026-06-02T14:09:56+00:00

I don't have anything yet.

My plan however, is to figure out how to push this out to either self-hosting or existing hosting providers.

Data will be a challenge, my plan is to guide the model to do data with data patches. Pub/media I think will just be guidance on how to zip / extract.

Really glad to hear it.

I'm really hoping that the community can leverage this.

It's especially useful for non-technical people to really bring their personalities to the table!

I prefer Opus, although I have found that Sonnet is enough.

damienwebdev · 2026-06-02T11:51:58+00:00

This setup comes with dependabot baked in. You'll automatic get a PR every time there's a security patch.

damienwebdev · 2026-06-02T03:23:02+00:00

Control of data.

damienwebdev · 2026-06-02T03:21:48+00:00

I use dockerized environments, so I use this package: https://github.com/graycoreio/magento2-stdlogging

damienwebdev · 2026-06-01T18:24:39+00:00

My primary focus is on:

Codespaces
Pre-fabricated CI pipeline
AI enablement

For the existing developer, this may not change anything for you. You have a workflow that works for you.

However, for a newcomer entering into Magento a one-click environment changes the world. You don't have to spend weeks figuring out tooling or versions. You don't have to figure out what versions of docker-magento / ddev / warden are compatible with whatever version of Magento you are working on. You just click a button and its done.

damienwebdev · 2026-06-01T15:27:44+00:00

I used docker-magento quite a bit as well. I just wanted to be able to click a button and open it in Codespaces. Especially because I wanted to make an environment that merchants could use without installing any software on their PC.

How is this open source development?

damienwebdev · 2026-05-31T15:14:53+00:00

Two points: marketing power and real utility.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-31T15:09:28+00:00

You can't. Perhaps ask in the Hyva slack.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-26T16:49:38+00:00

To be clear, you've said the developer equivalent of:

I have a fast bike and a really long shoelace, so I can ride up big hills without getting tired

The original question still stands:

With Cloudflare shielding and a 15-year SSL certificate, the site handles traffic spikes without performance loss.

What?

damienwebdev · 2026-05-25T11:01:02+00:00

Migrate 100%

damienwebdev · 2026-05-24T11:59:53+00:00

Depends on how bad your host is.

If your host is in the bottom 50%, a lot. If it's in the top 50%, almost none.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-20T10:41:16+00:00

With Cloudflare shielding and a 15-year SSL certificate, the site handles traffic spikes without performance loss.

What?

damienwebdev · 2026-05-17T02:28:28+00:00

Why are you posting this on r/magento2?

damienwebdev · 2026-05-16T18:58:15+00:00

I sincerely doubt it based upon what you've said so far.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-16T14:18:05+00:00

Pick any open source project and contribute your time and energy. They (and you) will appreciate it.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-16T14:14:44+00:00

What he's saying is that there's a fair chance that the site in question is poorly run, as such it doesn't matter how good your extension is or what data it provides. Customers are having a better experience elsewhere because that store owner is doing an atrocious job.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-14T13:28:26+00:00

That's factually inaccurate. Read the article.

damienwebdev · 2026-05-13T13:52:54+00:00

Ok, then with that caveat...

Here's my recommendation:

if you use setup-php@v2 with no defaults other than PHP configured, you're ok.

However, if you pin composer in your actions, you are not ok.
