Blackfire – DDEV setup, HTTP and CLI profiling, CI/CD assertions
Blackfire is a PHP profiler that shows not just what is slow, but why – with call graphs, timeline, and SQL query analysis. Unlike Xdebug which shows you line-level execution, Blackfire aggregates and visualises the performance bottlenecks in a way that makes them immediately actionable. I show installation in DDEV, profiling HTTP requests and CLI commands, and writing performance assertions for CI/CD.

Magento B2B – Company, Shared Catalog, Negotiable Quote, custom plugins
Magento B2B is a separate module suite for business-to-business selling. Company accounts, Shared Catalogs with customer-specific pricing, Negotiable Quotes, and Requisition Lists are the core features. I show the architecture, how each feature connects to the core Magento data model, and how to extend them with custom plugins.

CQRS – Command Bus, Query Bus, read models, Magento 2 integration
CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) is an architectural pattern that separates write operations (Commands) from read operations (Queries). This separation enables independent optimisation of reads and writes, event sourcing, and eventually consistent read models. I show an implementation with CommandBus and QueryBus, apply it to a Magento 2 module, and explain when the added complexity is justified.

Trie – prefix tree, autocomplete, spam filter, benchmark vs array
A Trie (prefix tree) is a data structure that stores strings in a tree where each node represents a character. It is the foundation of autocomplete, spell-check, and IP routing. PHP arrays can implement the same functionality but at very different performance characteristics. I implement a Trie from scratch and benchmark it against array-based approaches.
