    This is how I get web development jobs

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 12:52 PM PST

    Call people. Make a list of 100 graphic design/web dev/marketing agencies in your local area or close to you and call them.

    I live in Houston so I had a plethora of companies to contact. There were some weekends were I'd phone 100 people on Friday. This has landed me quite a few freelance projects, and 2 full time positions. My current job hired me on full time a couple of months ago. The only reason I started working here is because I cold-called them and let them know I'm a freelance web dev currently looking for work. They interviewed me and I landed the gig, now I'm apart of their team.

    Just give it a try and you never know what could happen

    Anyone else hesitant on using NPM packages after that guy said he was harvesting credit card info?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:00 AM PST

    That's the post that got my workplace talking today, and all the devs now have to go through entire NPM packages...

    Is this really a big problem now with NPM packages?

    Long gaps between projects at work. Is this normal for a web dev job?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:14 PM PST

    I've been a developer now for less than a year. I've completed two pretty large projects since starting and I'm currently waiting for my next one. It's been about a month now and I've yet to get a work assignment. I'm making the most of my time by working through some personal projects to keep learning. I tried looking into backburner projects, but it looks like I don't yet have the skill set to take on any of those.

    I'm wondering how normal this is for web developers. I work for a small, nontech company.

    Frontend for a backend developer

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:42 PM PST

    I'm a backend developer with not much knowledge of frontend development. I don't have any interest in frontend development and I don't have the patience for it.

    I'm planning on programming after my hours with main interest creating small websites for really small companies (for ex. the butcher around the corner).

    Creating the backend for those websites is not a problem for me. But I was wondering on how to do the front-end. I know there are themes available like for example on themeforest.

    But I was wondering on how do you guys do this?

    What are the most useful things I should learn to do in React?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:33 PM PST

    I'm a web designer struggling to learn React. What are good examples of common and practical things you do using React? I make websites for a living but I worth nothing to the industry if I don't keep up with the current front-end frameworks.

    Example: In jQuery, creating an email form that doesn't need to reload when submitted, start animations when window reaches certain position, an overlay with a spinner while the page loads, etc.

    Stuck on this for a while - driving me nuts. Please Help! Adding all matching values of objects in an array.

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 01:24 PM PST

    What I'm Using

    • Angular 5
    • AngularFire5
    • Firebase & Firestore

    What I'm Trying to Achieve

    I am trying to cycles through all of the items in an array, which holds objects. If a certain value in the object matches the same value in the other object, then it will add another value together.

    Example:

    Start with:

    mapData = [["US", 5], ["CAN", 9], ["US", 6]]

    or 

    mapData = [{"countryCode":"US", "clicks": 5}, {"countryCode":"CAN", "clicks": 9}, {"countryCode":"US", "clicks": 6}]

    End with:

    mapDataResults = { "US": { "usage": "11", "fillKey": "tens" }, "CAN": { "usage": "9", "fillKey": "ones" }, }

    Where I'm Stuck

    I have no idea on how to search and match through the different object values in the array. Additonally, I would need to figure out how to reorganize how the data is returned, instead of an array it would need to be in a JSON format. Finally, and I think I might be able to figure this out myself, if I can get help with the other parts, but for there to be an additonal value added "fillKey" based on how large the number of clicks (or usage) were.

    New domain for WP redirects everything to homepage

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 03:21 PM PST

    Hi.

    I am done, I really have no more ideas what to do, I have no more ideas what to Google, even though it's probably something stupid and/or simple.

    I have AWS EC2 instance where I host my website which uses Wordpress (newest ver):

    IP address: 52.51.34.204

    URL: http://ec2-52-51-34-204.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/

    So far so good, it works OK. I had a domain for a year - http://arpago.eu - it worked also fine, but it ran out. As a temporary solution, I've put 2 lines in wp-config.php:

    https://i.imgur.com/gEOUzEQ.png - the ones with ec2-52..... url. So that without any big modifications I still could access the site until I decide to get a domain.

    I re-bought the same domain today in the morning (different provider, but it shouldn't matter I guess). I've set up IP address redirection in the control panel of the domain provider (just as I had before). Then I tried reconfiguring Wordpress to work with it. I removed those 2 lines with define SITEURL and HOME from wp-config.php, but it breaks the site (same result if I define arpago.eu as SITEURL/HOME). I tried removing and restoring old .htaccess, but I had no luck, I am not even sure which one was the right one (tried all 3 though). The issue is that nothing besides main page text works and everything gets redirected to the main page, so that CSS/images/scripts do not even appear. I can get to admin login screen, probably because it's located in the main directory, but logging in is impossible as the login credentials get redirected to the main page http://ec2-52-51-34-204.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/ - links are displayed correctly in page's source, but clicking on ex. http://arpago.eu/about/ just brings you to http://ec2-52-51-34-204.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com/

    I cannot get to WP admin panel unless I define ec2-52-51~... as SITEURL and HOME in wp-config.php, but if I do so, I can't modify these entires in the panel itself (it gets greyed out).

    I am not sure what is the cause of issues, since even without htaccess rewrite it should just redirect correctly.

    Thanks in advance.

    When people say "if you have mastered the fundamental concepts, it doesn't matter which programming language you learn", what "fundamental concepts" are they talking about?

    What's a good framework or platform for a B2B lead generation site?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 12:55 PM PST

    I've come to the realisation that if there's a site type there's usually a best platform, and I was wondering what peoples suggestions for a lead generation platform were. I had a quick look to remind myself of wordpress and leadpages but they just didnt seem to have the type of form functionality and flexibility I was after. Is there a sort of Shopify for lead generation, would I maybe have to look at drupal or joomla if wordpress doesnt cut the mustered?

    I'm looking to build an easy site to test out solely for lead generation purposes, the sort of features I was looking for: Document download that requires input of details. Article click more buttons that have a form pop up. Buttons that register an interest in call back about a specific problem.

    Can anyone think of anything?

    Looking for guides on accessing client Google Sheets

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:29 PM PST

    We have a service that lets clients input a bunch of active data. Over time I added import ability (via CSV or excel spreadsheet), but more clients are using google sheets, and since data changes a couple times a month, they would love to be able to just tie their account to their google sheets, so when they do an update to a product price value, it auto updates in our system. (currently they would have to redo the import process and deselect rows that don't want to update (in case they manually changed a value in our system).

    I know it is possible, there are paid services out there where they can set it up to fire on things when a sheet is updated, and call a api on our system, but two things, 1. requires our clients to sign up and also pay for that service as well 2. our clients are the mostly the type who like things as easy as possible, least steps, so just having directly in our system an option to connect to their sheets would "scare them off" a lot less. (as a developer, it is a different world to see how non tech users really get scared off from tech). Oh there is a #3, this interests me, and sounds like a fun new thing to learn.

    So anyhow, I don't need a direct guide, but the correct terms to search for or links to some tutorials to find out how to do it would be appreciated so I can get down the right path. (and if you do have specific examples, our service is a PHP app)

    Considering Bootstrap 4 for a large new project. Any reason to choose 3 instead?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2018 01:14 PM PST

    The project is a company website redesign which will not be redesigned again for the next 4 or so years. Development starts in a week or two.

    Any reason to not move forward with v.4 of Bootstrap? I don't expect to need many 3rd party components.
