A guide to Zen Browser

Zen is a new and interesting browser. This is a full guide to it.

Installing

To install it, just go to zen-browser.app and install for your platform. After that, open it and complete the onboarding process.

Syncing

Right after you install Zen Browser, you should probably log into a Firefox account. If you already have one, then your data should be imported, and if you don't, you'll still get syncing for bookmarks and tabs.

Privacy and Security

Zen comes with a pretty good user.js file, so you shouldn't have to edit that, but in the settings, there are things you should change for privacy.

Per Team User Subscription in Laravel Spark

Per Team User Subscription in Laravel Spark

If you want the ability to charge a team owner based on how many members their team has, like $10/user/month, then you utilize the Laravel Cashier functionality of incrementing the quantity.

You listen for when a new team member is added and you increase the quantity of the subscription by the amount of users and also listen for when a team member is removed to downsize charges. - Not Braintree Compatible


Within EventServiceProvider.php
'Laravel\Spark\Events\Teams\TeamMemberAdded' => [
Handlebars.registerHelper('slugify', function(title) {
return title.toLowerCase()
.replace(/ /g,'-')
.replace(/[^\w-]+/g,'');
});

web scraping in php

Have you ever wanted to get a specific data from another website but there's no API available for it? That's where Web Scraping comes in, if the data is not made available by the website we can just scrape it from the website itself.

But before we dive in let us first define what web scraping is. According to Wikipedia:

{% blockquote %} Web scraping (web harvesting or web data extraction) is a computer software technique of extracting information from websites. Usually, such software programs simulate human exploration of the World Wide Web by either implementing low-level Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), or embedding a fully-fledged web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. {% endblockquote %}
