Landing pages are everywhere in modern business.
They're used when people offer a free giveaway in return for someone joining a mailing list, to sell a product or service, and as glorified resumes.
Landing pages are a great solution for these kinds of business needs as they can be rapidly created and deployed. Knowing how to create them can also be a great skill for developers to have, whether creating landing pages for others or for personal projects.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to create a landing page using a combination of Laravel 8, Vue.js, and SendGrid. It's a reasonably long tutorial. By the end of it, I'm confident that you'll have learned a lot.
Prerequisites
To complete the tutorial, you will need the following 4 things in your local development environment:
- Prior experience with Laravel (ideally version 8.0) and Vue.js (ideally the 3.x series)
- A free or …
SMS ist eine einfache und etablierte Technologie mit der Unternehmen mit Ihren Kunden kommunizieren. Weltweit gibt es rund 7,2 Milliarden Mobiltelefone die SMS empfangen können, damit ist es sicherlich eine der verbreitetsten Technologien unserer Zeit.
Im nachfolgenden Artikel wollen wir eine SMS aus einer einfachen Applikation über die Twilio API versenden. Die Integration ist einfach und mit jeder Programmiersprache möglich, in diesem Beispiel wollen wir die Twilio API mit PHP ansprechen.
Vorbereitung
Für die nächsten Schritte benötigen wir die folgende vier Dinge:
Abhängige Pakete Installieren und Composer Konfigurieren
Bevor wir den eigentlichen PHP Code schreiben, müssen wir die abhängige Pakete installieren und Composer konfigurieren. Dafür benötigen wir nur zwei Pakete, zum einen das Twilio Client SDK, also die Schnittstelle zu Twilio. Das zweite Paket ist PHP dotenv, mit diesem Paket werden wir die nötigen Umgebungsvariablen konfigurieren.
Zum Installieren der zwei Pakete …
In my previous tutorial on how to send an SMS with PHP’s Mezzio framework, we covered sending a text message in PHP. In this tutorial, we’ll expand on the application that we built so that it can also reply to an SMS when it is received.
Prerequisites
To follow along with this tutorial you should have the following:
- A Twilio account
- Git
- Composer globally installed
- Basic knowledge of PHP and the Mezzio framework
To get started, clone version 1.0.0 of the repository that we created in the previous tutorial. Alternatively, follow the previous tutorial to create what we achieved.
Note: If you cloned the repository, make sure that you add your Twilio Account SID, Auth Token, and phone number to the .env file in the root directory of the project. You will also need to run composer install to install existing dependencies for the project.
Regardless of the approach that …
Whether we’re voting for our favorite candidate on shows such as X Factor, or receiving two-factor authentication codes to log in to services like MailChimp and GitLab, SMS are virtually ubiquitous in modern life. Not only do they make communication in life and work much easier, it also doesn’t take a lot of code to send them either.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a simplistic API that can send an SMS using PHP’s Mezzio framework and Twilio’s PHP SDK.
Once completed, you will be able to send a POST request to the API’s default endpoint, supplying the phone number to send the message to, and the message to send. If the message was successfully sent, then a JSON response will be returned showing a number of details about the sent SMS. If the SMS was not able to be sent, then an appropriate JSON response will …
