Publishing/Hosting Your Web or Desktop Software For People To See.

No matter how good you are as a software developer, if people don't see your work, it is very bad. Putting a software on the internet and allowing the users of it to send you feedback is always helpful because it gives you the opportunity to learn more. If people don't criticise your work, then you have not started.
This post is particularly for web developers because as a web developer,  the main way people get to see your work is when your publish it by hosting it on the internet. A web application that is hosted on a localhost server within your computer is only useful to you not others. The worst part of it is that not everybody knows how to install a web application on a localhost server and if you want this to be done you have to make the installation process easy for the end users by developing a program that does the installation for them.
But why on earth would someone want to install a web application on a local machine? Of course there are many intranet applications out there but these applications are being packaged and deployed with Windows Installer or similar programs. They are often developed to run within a coperate environment or so. You, as a web developer, you need to publish your work for people to see on the internet. Publishing your work is not free because you get to pay your hosting provider on a monthly basis or so but, nonetheless, you must publish your work for people to use and you can generate revenue by placing ads or beg the users of your program to donate for you. Hahaha, that is funny, isn't it?
Aside from web developers, other program developers are also advised to share their programs either via internet or other means. At first, I thought I was doing everything right until I published an open source project... Yes, the user experience of the program is not so bad but the coding itself was hell and I received so many criticisms and these criticisms have come to make a very good impact in my coding skills. Please share something and let those who are better than you or have been there before you, punch holes in that One-Million-Dollar-Program you think you have made.
Thanks for reading.

Microsoft will allow you to upgrade your pirated Windows 7 or 8 to full Windows 10 for little or no amount.

Microsoft's latest Operating System has been trending for a while now, while some are still contemplating on who gets a free upgrade from the two previous Microsoft's Operating Systems just like the company promised and who wouldn't, Microsoft has announced that the upgrade to Windows 10 would be free for genuine Windows 7 or 8 users and there is a good news for pirated Windows 7 or 8 users, they too might go to the Promised Land for free or pay a little fee.Hmmm..., with this in place, you can see how determined Microsoft is to pull everyone into its Windows 10 ecosystem. You know, when Windows 10 Technical Preview was first announced along with how it's going to operate (Windows as a Service), I thought Microsoft is finally kicking Windows Pirates out of business, but it seems Microsoft is giving them one more chance to own a genuine Windows, maybe Windows 10  is going to be "un-piratable" (let's just hope MS gets it right).Hahaha!...., before I forget,

HOW TO WRITE, COMPILE AND RUN C++ CODE ON LINUX KALI

This article is for hackers who want to develop a c++ program on Kali Linux without having to install any additional software. While some would tell you that you need to install an additional software or a compiler in order to develop a simple program in c++ on Kali Linux, I am going to show you how to develop a c++ program on this distro right out of box. Your Linux Kali comes pre-installed with a c++ compiler called g++ so we are going to write a C++ hello word code and compile it with this compiler. Before we get started, first open up terminal and run to verify if this compiler is installed on you machine: g++ -v if the compiler is pre-installed, you should get the version information of the compiler, otherwise, you should get an error. Now let's jump right in. In your terminal window, type in: nano MyCpp.cpp to create a c++ file and lunch it in nano editor for editing. When nano opens, type in the following c++ code and press Ctrl+x then y and then R

LOAN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (My Project Idea)

There are many companies that specializes on giving loan to people; they make their profits by collecting interest on any money they lend out, and before a loan can be given to any customer, the customer must provide a collateral and some details such as:  contact details and a reference/guarantor. When the loan is finally given to the customer, they charge interest based on the the amount given to the customer for a given period of time which could be daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.  For example, a company could be collecting interest based on a particular amount for a given period of time like: $200,000 loan would have an interest tag of $2,000  per month until the money is returned, and $100,000 would have an interest of $1,000 per month until the money is returned.  In  addition, the customers need to know when the time for them to pay their interest comes e.g.  at the end of the month or the timing model with which the calculation is being made. Usually, these companies sends ou
