Avatar image in Oracle APEX Using a REST Media Resource as an image source

A little help from me at the #JoelKallmanDay for everyone who ever struggled with adding an avatar image in their Oracle APEX apps.

Unfortunately, implementing such feature is not so straightforward, but here we go, see tutorial below 👇

Creating APEX report with rolling set of columns #JoelKallmanDay The last several years I've participated in the Joel Kallman Day tributes with articles about SQL and PL/SQL. While there are no requirements for article topics, this year I wanted to contribute something within the framework Joel was best known for... APEX. Many reports aggregate data over time periods and will usually return different dates and times as distinct rows. In some reports though, it is more useful to show a rolling window of time.

Oracle APEX Reactive Markdown Plug-in #JoelKallmanDay Display rich Markdown in Oracle APEX that reacts to changes of referenced page items.

For #JoelKallmanDay I am sharing a free plug-in for reactive Markdown preview. It auto refreshes, supports tables, alerts, etc., and comes with three themes. #orclAPEX

Uploading a file in Oracle APEX usually means submitting the page, which can be slow and annoying if you just want a preview.

In memory of Joel Kallman, here’s a simple client-side method to preview media files instantly.

Oracle APEX 25.1 and beyond Since Oracle has been quiet about the new release of Oracle APEX, the community has wondered what happened to the next release. I thought it would be helpful to write about what I know for Joel Kallman Day. In recent years, Oracle has released two ve...

Many people have wondered about Oracle APEX 25.1, so I decided to write a blog post for #JoelKallmanDay about it.
