| Moderator Poll: What type of companies do we work for? Posted: 27 Oct 2020 10:34 PM PDT Continuing to learn who we are as a community. Select the option that is the closest match to the type of company you work for. Edit: If you check "other", please list the type of business in the comments. Reddit limits the polls to 6 options, so I selected the 6 most abundant types of work in this field, knowing that "other" would ultimately be used quite a bit. I plan to put together a post after all the polls I am running are done that sums up the results and I will dig into the comments to pull out data on "other". I wish that Reddit polls allowed you to just fill in the blank on "other" but they currently don't.

| Posted: 28 Oct 2020 10:50 AM PDT Basically it's a group where each week we all chose a design/programming concept and we design it with that concept in mind.At the end of the week we will critique each other and what you could've done better or what you did well.This would also be an accountability and motivational group because this kind of stuff is not easy to learn.So if you fall down we will pick you back up! I would also love to have some more seasoned web developers in the group who could guide us in the right directions in there free time or answer questions! Let me know if you would be interested beginners or whatever! As long as you have a thirst for knowledge and getting better with a POSITIVE team player attitude.Your welcome [link] [comments] | ||

| Best practices when making a website from scratch Posted: 28 Oct 2020 05:34 AM PDT Hello. I am a junior web developer. I have to make a website from scratch on a hosting server that from various reasons is limited to PHP 5.4 and runs Apache2. I've tried using WordPress but it just won't install on that host and so, I've decided to make it from 0 using Vue CLI, because that's what I've learned. The problem is that I have no idea how to tackle a lot of the things like:
Privacy Settings: I don't even know where to begin with this. Who writes these ? What happens if a user doesn't tick all the boxes ? I believe that these are linked to the cookies. How do I manage cookies on this Apache/PHP server ? Data Protection Policy: Again, who writes these ? Does this one have a check-box ? Or is it just informative and has to exist on a website ? Legal Notice: This seems exactly the same as Data Protection Policy, but with different text. Where do I store images and downloadable stuff when using Vue CLI and Apache/PHP server ? Is it a good practice to store stuff on the server ? When do I have to use a MySQL database ? What folders do I use ? What is the difference between public and src folders in Vue ? Server route handling on Apache/PHP server. I am used to doing this locally using VSC, so emulating a NodeJS/Express server and writing routes to handle forms and downloads that come from a Vue interface is something that I have done before. But I have never handled routes on a live server that uses Apache/PHP. How do I do that ? I am sorry if there are a lot of questions, but NOBODY teaches you these. All the tutorials on building websites, on Vue, on everything teaches you how to do things locally, not on a live server. If you would like to help me and answer this, please do not shy away from goin in-depth and writing literally when, how and where for every directory. Thank you. [link] [comments] | ||

| Best static site generators for integrating data feeds Posted: 28 Oct 2020 10:04 AM PDT I have some json feeds that are updated weekly that have an array of objects with properties like image url, link url, title and content etc. What static site generators make it easiest to pull data from http endpoints? Also what other technologies or set up would I need for the static pages to be automatically regenerated every week when the feeds update? I'm starting to look at Gatsby, Next, Nuxt, Hugo and Sapper and things like prismic and netlify, but with all the possibilities I'm suffering from analysis paralysis. Thank you [link] [comments] | ||

| Who writes the content of the sites you make? Posted: 28 Oct 2020 08:04 AM PDT When you get a new freelance project, how do you make the customer write some text for you. For example, the company I'm working right now has a logo and everything in that manner but no text for their website. Text to talk about their business, what they do, what they offer and so on. I find this part of developing a website is the hardest. I have very hard time pushing clients to write something. They don't, they forget, they procrastinate and delay the work. I mean, I'm just a dev, I don't know your business , I don't know what your company does good enough to explain it to your future client. How do you deal with this, seriously? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 28 Oct 2020 08:42 AM PDT Disclaimer: I have zero ZERO experience in webDev and I have a lot of questions. Background: I'm starting a podcast and want to create a website for it. I understand I will need a web host and a podcast host since I wont have enough storage to save my podcast files onto the website. On my website I want to provide worksheets for the listeners that can be downloaded. Q1. When looking for a web host what criteria should I be looking for to make sure I can provide the downloadable worksheets? I'm having trouble deciding on a web host. There are so many options and there are so many reviews that i'm drowning in it. My care abouts are Cost, Ease of building website, Email, ability to store worksheets for download, ability to link to my podcast host, I think thats it. I'm currently looking at NameCheap. Q2. Based on my care abouts do you have any recommendations? Q3. Is there something else I should add to my radar when looking for hosts? If you have other tips that a beginner would benefit from please share, i'll be extremely grateful. [link] [comments] | ||
| Japanese characters not displaying properly Posted: 28 Oct 2020 12:23 PM PDT Hi, I'm really scratching my head with this one. I've doble checked that the meta language data is correct, but I keep getting this issue. However, this is only on my hosting server. When I preview the pages from my file it renders the intended Japanese text; the same when I upload it to github pages...So is this an issue with my server or something I'm missing with the metadata?

| Interactive Simulation Technology Help Posted: 28 Oct 2020 07:16 AM PDT I working on a project for school and am developing an interactive training course. Here's an image https://ibb.co/QNbfwjJ of what the UI would look like. Some things we'd like to do is to have a switch alter an API in the background. Does anyone have ideas for technologies that I should look into? Another point to mention is that this UI will be hooked up to the physical hardware that it is representing, except the water filling aspect on the right. [link] [comments] | ||
| Preventing access to an HTML page? (html, JS and css only, no direct server code) Posted: 28 Oct 2020 03:52 PM PDT Hello everyone. I have a web project that I've been helping out with that does not use any server side programming. It was a project requirement to only use HTML, CSS and JS with PHP for any database communications. What I want to know is: is there still a way for me to restrict access to plain html documents without login aside from using JavaScript? I'm thinking that I can return the HTML document contents to JS post request via PHP echo. Sounds absurd, I know, but is there anything else besides convincing the project owner to switch to an appropriate back end solution? Anything that may be done with .htaccess perhaps? Can .htaccess change based on presence of php Session variables? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 28 Oct 2020 03:45 PM PDT I'm setting up an API where people can post job postings. Then on another site I'm pulling in the job postings via curl. This all works well for information, and even for images I can just base64_encode() and still maintain some easy json. But they'd like to upload their application forms, and I'm not sure of the best way to handle this. I don't thinking fetching a pdf that's potentially 4mb would work well via API via base64_encode. Would it be better to maybe have a download button, and when clicked, it fetches the application form on click (as opposed to on page load)? Except this time on click it would just be a curl fetch for the PDF resource? Just looking for best practices. Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
| background-image: url() using Gatsby and SASS does not work Posted: 28 Oct 2020 09:34 AM PDT Hello there, Not sure if this is a Gatsby related issue or a SASS issue. But whenever I'm trying to set the background image of and element (
It can't find the image with the provided path and I have tried different paths like: - Full path with quotes & without quotes:
- Relative Path with quotes & without quotes:
- Funky stuff with quotes and without:
And so on... It breaks. I don't know what I'm missing here. Folder structure: -- components -- images // Images that I want to use -- pages // Pages -- shared // Reusable components -- styles // SASS folder [link] [comments] | ||
| What are the major differences between building normal websites and CMS websites? Posted: 28 Oct 2020 03:27 PM PDT Hi, I've been programming web development professionally for 2-3 years now. I recently landed a job in PHP making CMS websites, and I've been thinking about some of the major differences between what I'm doing now and what I've done before. I am blessed with a role that allows me to choose a technology stack in the long run over the next 3 years, and I would like to pick one that would be enjoyable for me as a dev, and one I could reuse over and over again, perhaps as a library. I also would like to build a personal CMS that I could use as a template for a variety of CMS clients. I would like to build it in Elixir, because it is very easy to do web sockets for concurrent project editing, chat and streaming in Elixir, and it would be nice to bundle that with a custom CMS and make a CMS template I could reuse. It seems the critical difference is just the sheer amount of database entities and relationships. But normal websites have these relationships as well - is there anything specific, in terms of component, software law or something else, that differentiates the process of building a CMS and a normal website? Nowadays, Rails, Phoenix (Elixir), Django and Laravel all make it super easy to template and construct components without too much boilerplate, especially with reusable widgets on the front end. But to actually be usable as a CMS, what are clients looking for specifically? Module builders, page builders, blogs, etc? Are there any good books for building a content management system from scratch? [link] [comments] | ||
| How to do collaboration and synchronization Posted: 28 Oct 2020 02:58 PM PDT I have come over an interesting problem for me as a beginner. How would you approach creating a real-time synchronized web app? Let's say something like Google Docs but just for plain text. [link] [comments] | ||
| How to use variables in links to direct user to pages on local, QA and live respectively? Posted: 28 Oct 2020 02:53 PM PDT I have two projects that are linked to each other for example www.cat.com and www.dog.com I want to use urls in my project, so if the user is on local and clicks on a link www.cat.localhost they will be sent to a page on www.dog.localhost and if they are on www.cat-QA.com they will be sent to www.dog-QA.com how would i do this? i know it has something to do with using constants in the .env file or can i just use routes? but none of them seem to have been created yet, and i'm not sure that we know what our live website domain will be called?
