It's easy to get caught up in the latest trends in web design. Web technology is constantly improving, and today developers have a formidable range of features at their disposal. This makes for a forward-thinking, innovative space — as it should — but also one at risk of being unrooted. Every art has its ancient masters. In the case of websites, it's newspapers. When you dig into the basic principles of news design, overlaps with the web are frequent and oftentimes indistinguishable.

By combining some React APIs, we can accurately manage "simple" states. With Next.js though, we can quickly find situations where we need to accommodate many other requirements, such as isolating state between pages or routes, and managing our data both in the server and client while bringing things in from third-party services. That's a lot! Let's have a look at some patterns to accomplish all that.

We all need a little inspiration boost every once in a while. And, well, whatever your strategy to get your creative juices flowing might be, sometimes inspiration lies closer than you think.

Tomas Vortuba has a tutorial posted to his site showing you how to test private services in Symfony in unit tests for pre-4.1 Symfony installations (it has been resolved via simpler testing methods in Symfony 4.1 with the FrameworkBundle). 2 versions of Symfony are affected by this dissonance between services and tests. Do you use Symfony 3.4 or 4.0? Do you want to test your services, but struggle to get them in a clean way? Today we look at possible solutions. He starts with an example of the error you'd face if you tried to pull a service directly from the container that was marked as private. While you can specifically make it public in the yaml configuration, this potentially means doing that for all of the services you need to test. While this might work for smaller projects, it's unmaintainable for larger ones. He then shares some other options that could help resolve the issue including the one he ended up on: a compiler pass. He gets into a bit of detail on the changes this would require and where the "magic" is that lets it work.
