Happy to announce that I will be speaking at the ConFoo 2026 developer conference in Montreal, Canada in February this year.

We've been leveraging Gally, a next generation Searchandising Engine, in several of our e-commerce projects. However, integrating the required services into our DDEV setups has become a repetitive task, involving manual copying and pasting.

How can we streamline this process and make it more efficient?

In May, Sylius released their new Test Application project, which defines a shared testing environment designed to simplify plugin development and testing.

Mark your calendars for October 29th and 30th, as Bad Nauheim will be the place to be. My friends from programmier.bar are hosting the programmier.con - Web & AI Edition 2025 conference, and I'm excited to have been invited to give a talk about DDEV, a topic that was recently featured on the programmier.bar podcast.

On the 19th of September, I will be speaking once again at the PHP Developer Day Conference organized by my friends of the PHP Usergroup Dresden.

We use DDEV for almost all of our PHP projects. Also, we use FrankenPHP in our projects, but so far only in production.

Can we make FrankenPHP also run in DDEV to have a more consistent development environment?

In a recent project, we dealt with 2 DDEV instances — 2 applications that need to communicate with each other or, more specifically, exchange files.

For about 1 year, we've been using DDEV for most of our Docker setups. While Sylius comes with its own Docker setup, I wanted to see if I could use DDEV to develop Sylius plugins as this would offer me a similar Docker experience to our other projects.

For a recent project, I tried to enable Xdebug in our DDEV environment. What worked fine in the past did not work correctly this time. Once Xdebug was active, reloading the page resulted in a HTTP 503 error.

Adding custom Javascript code to the Sulu Admin UI requires a rebuild of the administration interface frontend application. According to the Sulu docs, running the following command is enough:

bin/adminconsole sulu:admin:update-build

Sadly, this did not work in our ddev setup because ddev ships with a newer version of npm. Due to a breaking change for linked packages, Sulu is not compatible with npm > 6 at the moment.
