Using Fedora to quickly implement REST API with JavaScript
Fedora Workstation uses GNOME Shell by default and this one was mainly written in JavaScript.
JavaScript is famous as a language of front-end development but this time we‘ll show it‘s usage for back-end.
We‘ll implement a new API using the following technologies: JavaScript, Express and Fedora Workstation. A web browser is being used to call the service (eg. Firefox from the default Fedora WS distro).

Fedora test days are events where anyone can help make sure changes in Fedora work well in an upcoming release. Fedora community members often participate, and the public is welcome at these events. If you’ve never contributed to Fedora before, this is a perfect way to get started.
There are two upcoming test days in the upcoming week. The first, starts on Monday 13 April through Monday 20 April, is to test the Kernel 5.6. Wednesday April 15, the test day is focusing on Fedora 32 IoT Edition. Come and test with us to make the upcoming Fedora 32 even better. Read more below on how to do it.

Remi Collet: PHP 8.0 as Software Collection
Version 8.0.0-alpha1 will be soon released. It's still in development and will enter soon in the stabilization phase for the developers, and the test phase for the users.
RPM of this upcoming version of PHP 8.0, are available in remi repository for Fedora 31, 32 and Enterprise Linux 7, 8 (RHEL, CentOS, ...) in a fresh new Software Collection (php80) allowing its installation beside the system version.
As I strongly believe in SCL potential to provide a simple way to allow installation of various versions simultaneously, and as I think it is useful to offer this feature to allow developers to test their applications, to allow sysadmin to prepare a migration or simply to use this version for some specific application, I decide to create this new SCL.
