In this first post we will cover basic concepts, taking the implementation of the gateway Stripe as a reference point. In our next articles we'll give examples of real intergrations.

In this post we will use Github Actions to automatically trigger the following processes on every merge to master or pull request:

• Fire up a clean linux + nodejs instance.
• Download the repository source code.
• Install the project dependencies.
• Execute the associated unit tests.
• Generate a docker image including the production build.
• Tag it and Publish it into the Docker Hub registry.

We will configure this for both a Front End project and a Back End project.

Managing Form State (holding field information, check if a control has been touched, if the user has clicked the submit button, who owns the current focus…) can be tedious and prone to errors. We can get help from Formik to handle these challenges for us.

Form validation can get complex (synchronous validations, asynchronous validations, record validations, field validations, internationalization, schemas definitions…). To cope with these challenges we will leverage this into Fonk and Fonk Formik adaptor for a Forkmik seamless integration.
