SMS remains one of the most reliable communication channels available today, with open rates exceeding 90%. Whether you are building an OTP SMS API for authentication, setting up transactional alerts, or automating marketing workflows, a robust SMS API integration is a powerful addition to any stack. In this tutorial, we will explore how a REST SMS API works and walk through a practical implementa
If you've worked with Drupal long enough, you've faced this decision: Do I build a custom module for this or can ECA handle it? Use ECA When The logic is workflow-based Non-developers need to maintain it ECA workflows live in the admin UI. Your client or site admin can read, modify, and debug them without touching code. A custom module cannot offer that. Speed matters A workflow that would tak
The first article on this blog explained how it was built in 30 minutes with Claude Code. Naturally, a blog needs comments. Same constraints: no database, no external dependencies, no Disqus tracking visitors. Just PHP + JSON files. Built in one session with Claude Code — the interesting part wasn't the code, it was the security audit that followed. A comment system without a database seems trivia
I was skeptical at first. Not about AI in general — but about whether it would actually fit into my workflow. I work mostly with legacy PHP and jQuery. The kind of codebase that was written before half the frameworks people talk about today even existed. Some Vue.js here and there in newer parts, but a lot of the core is raw PHP, procedural logic, and jQuery doing things you probably don't want to

The previous three posts covered how events flow from the SDK to the UI, how the timeline renders, and how tool cards visualize. This final post looks at SwiftWork's infrastructure — how data is stored, how state is restored, how Markdown is rendered, how code is highlighted, and how API keys are managed. These components are independent, but all essential to making the app usable. SwiftWork uses
Across the previous seven articles plus a bonus chapter, we thoroughly explored the inner workings of Open Agent SDK — Agent Loop, the tool system, MCP integration, multi-Agent collaboration, conversation persistence, and multi-LLM support. The bonus chapter even embedded the SDK into a macOS native app, Motive, and ran it live. But Motive was just a backend-swap experiment. The real question is:
