Today, the 256th day of the year, is a special date for everyone involved in IT – Programmer's Day! It's a great opportunity to celebrate our passion for coding and enjoy the successes we achieve in our work together.

Traditionally, on this occasion, we went out for lunch with almost the entire Blumilk team. It was not only delicious, but also full of laughter and integration.

Programmer's Day is a moment to thank everyone who puts effort into creating, debugging and improving code every day. Your work is invaluable, and every line of code contributes to the development of technology!

All the best to everyone who tinkers with code!
May this day be full of satisfaction and joy from your successes.

Our June integration trip, despite encountering a few challenges, turned out to be a huge success! The weather may not have been perfect, not everyone managed to make it, and we had to adjust the event plan on the fly, but it was great fun!

We also had the opportunity to visit a Mongolian yurt, which was an interesting experience. There was no shortage of laughter!

Although we came back exhausted and sore, we are filled with positive energy for the coming months. The integration moments spent together will definitely contribute to even better cooperation in our team.

We would like to thank everyone who took part and made this trip unforgettable!

We are happy to announce the return of Laravel Poland MeetUp! After a short break, we invite you to another edition of this unique event. This time, we are organizing MeetUp in cooperation with Amsterdam Standard, which will surely make this event even more interesting.

During the MeetUp, we will have the pleasure of listening to three presentations given by Laravel experts from all over the country. We will discuss both advanced techniques and news in the Laravel ecosystem, which will allow participants to expand their knowledge and skills in this popular framework.

More details about the program and how to register will be published soon.

Follow our news to stay up to date with information about the event. 
See you on June 6 at Laravel Poland MeetUp!

At Blumilk, we constantly take care of the quality of our code from the first day of each project. In our daily work, we realize that manually correcting syntax or style errors is time-consuming and ineffective. That's why we use the reliable PHP-CS-Fixer library, which we have adapted to our needs.

Our own version of the library, wrapped in a unique set of rules, helps maintain a consistent programming style across projects. Automatic correction of the most common syntax and style errors makes code review much easier for us, saving valuable time.

We are excited that we are approaching 10,000 downloads of our library from Packagista!

We have just published version 2.1.0, which is already the 32nd release. We use it in over 80 repositories, which confirms its effectiveness and popularity.

The summer semester 2022/23 at The Witelon Collegium State University is just beginning and with it student internships at Blumilk.

After the success of previous editions, in which young and ambitious students gained valuable experience, we decided to continue our mission of supporting future professionals in the IT industry.

So far, we have organized several editions of internships, during which a dozen or so people could see what the daily work of a programmer looks like in practice. Many of these people, thanks to the experience they gained, found employment in the IT industry, and some of them joined our team permanently.

This year, we are planning even more interesting projects, which our experienced software engineers will work on. Students will take part in various tasks, which include IT project planning, work management, using the latest technologies, application testing automation and implementing IT systems in various environments.

We encourage everyone interested to apply!

We are proud to announce that our team consisting of Mateusz Lencki, Kamil Piech, Krzysztof Rewak and Marcin Tracz took first place in the CuValley Hack hackathon organized by KGHM Centrum Analityki and KGHM in the category "Safe mobile application for data aggregation".

During several hours of hard work, finished late at night, we built a Laravel backend that connects to a dozen or so external services.

Our application highlights data regarding, among others:

• metal prices,
• stocks and stock market indices,
• currency rates,
• gas and electricity prices,
• news from the mining world,
• current and financial reports of the KGHM company,
• shareholder structure.

We programmed the client layer in Flutter, which allowed us to create an efficient and intuitive mobile application.

We would like to thank the esteemed jury for appreciating our solution. We are glad that we could show our skills in practice.
