How to build a website with Go and API-first CMS Gentics Mesh

Making it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software is and has always been the goal of the Go programming language.

As in our previous examples Gentics Mesh is used to manage all the data.

Make AJAX-Requests Great Again

AJAX requests are often handled by third party libraries, because of the unpopular native XMLHttpRequest feature in JavaScript.

Fast, unopinionated, minimalist. Express is one of the most popular Node.js frameworks out there. It simplifies routing and handling data.

Our focus is especially on routing and displaying the content with templates..

Building an API-first Web App with Gentics Mesh and the PHP Microframework Silex

Silex is a PHP microframework based on Symfony used to develop small web applications. In this example we use Silex and its basic routing engine with the Twig template engine to read and display the data we read from our API-First CMS Gentics Mesh. And since Mesh provides API Endpoints and manages all the data for us, we can focus on the frontend part. But it also provides us with the opportunity to swap out Silex for a more complex Framework anytime.

REST in Peace - Devoxx Poland 2016

At this year's Devoxx Poland conference we had the chance to talk about creating and maintaining REST APIs on stage. REST APIs are the language of the web. Though simple to build, it's also very easy to mess them up. You might end up with a convoluted API, that's hard to understand and even worse to use. We gave you our ideas about how to create REST APIs that are both comprehensible and maintainable and make your fellow developers happy.
