Tutorial PHP Smarty Template Engine 4

In this post I will cover the use of the Smarty Template Engine (version 4.0.0) (https://www.smarty.net/) in an introductory way.

Smarty is a engine to manage templates in projects developed in PHP language. Its objective is to enable the separation of the application logic part (php language) and the presentation part (html / css). Thus, we will have a application logic (with the implementation of business rules, data access, distributed form / cookies) and another presentation layer (to present the application layout).

Two-step verification with php and Google Authenticator

A security feature in system authentication that has become quite popular recently is 2-step verification. The main banking and brokerage applications use their own apps to generate tokens that are dynamic (they are constantly updated in low cycles of time), and used as a 2nd factor for system access (the 1st factor is the traditional username/mail and password ).

In this post, I’m going to show you how to integrate your php application with Google Authenticator.
