| I’m finally able to make a website from scratch thanks to you all Posted: 03 Jan 2018 09:35 AM PST About 200 days ago I made a post regarding how difficult of a time I was having remembering simple parts of HTML. Users in this subreddit gave me confidence to continue working towards my goal of learning HTML and CSS. The truth is, I quit about a week after that post and moved on to other things. Two months later I thought about your comments and one specific comment sticks in my head to this day which is (butchered version and I'll find the user later) "even seasoned developers have to look stuff up." This gave me the confidence to get to work again. I downloaded a template and messed with things to see what they did. I made mistakes and learned each time. Now, I'm finally able to make a website from scratch. Thank you all for your inspiring comments. Screenshots: https://prnt.sc/hvs9w1 https://prnt.sc/hvs9t0 Those are honestly the two things I'm most proud of on the website. [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a place where non-coders post ideas? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 02:56 AM PST Often friends that never tried out coding tell me something they would like to have, and often these ideas are great. I myself only code as a hobby and really like to make things people use, but I always lack good ideas. It would be great to have a community where people can post requests, wouldn't it?

| Posted: 03 Jan 2018 02:25 PM PST Recently finished my first semester of college as a computer engineer major. I was looking for a good website that'll help me practice and get better at coding in my free time. Any Suggestions? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jan 2018 03:28 PM PST I am new to programming and started with C++ and have been using learn CPP.com, I am having a hard time understanding the websites lessons and I don't know any other ways to go about learning it besides reading a book about it which i tried and it ended up the same way with me not understanding what is going on. I have been using C++ for about 4 days know and understand the basics of it, but im wondering if i should choose a different first language like python or javascript. [link] [comments]  |
| What do you think are the best online programming courses to take in addition to going to college? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 07:25 PM PST I think I can handle an online course over the spring semester. A course introducing new languages would be great, I only know a bit of Java so far from my first sem. I'm looking for a course that has assignments, regular deadlines, and some feedback on student assignments, but not extremely heavy in the courseload b/c of classes. Anyone know any good ones?

| How to get started building a database & web app Posted: 03 Jan 2018 03:41 PM PST Hi! I'm very new! I'm looking for some advice on where to begin with a project and I'd love to pick your brains! A little background first: I work in a call centre, supervising technical support agents & helping to manage their quality. A core part of my job involves listening to their calls & checking over their case work, and coaching them to improve. When I started, we logged everything in Google Docs. It was a time-consuming process to log everything, and in order to get any summarised overview of an agent's performance, we had to open each doc for each month for each agent and manually process all of the information. I got tired of that so I put my head down and looked into a Google Sheets solution. I spent a lot of time learning about Sheets & formulas, and I now consider myself very proficient in it. Using Google Forms & Sheets, I put together a solution that allows me and other supervisors to log our different analyses via the form which feeds a back-end sheet. Each agent gets their own sheet which pulls only their data, presents it in an easy-to-follow format, and also gives them aggregated metrics to sum up their performance. I also put together a dashboard using Google's Data Studio, so that supervisors can get complete overviews of the whole team. The amount of time & labour to log the information has been drastically reduced and we get insights instantly. It's a hit! But it's not without its own problems. There's too many to go into here, but the main problem is how sluggish the whole thing becomes when the data starts piling up, and all of the maintenance that's required to keep it running. So I'm eager to build something better. I've just started learning some programming. I bought online courses on Python and found it easy enough to understand the basics (I haven't gotten very far). However, because of my experience with Sheets (think of the "query" function), and because I've been told that SQL is the programming language for large databases, I put my Python studies on hold and started an online course on MySQL. I'm enjoying it and just wishing I had more time to learn it quicker! My ideal goal would be: • A web-app, hosted on company servers. • Agents & supervisors would create their own logins & passwords (with different permissions depending on their role). • A database of every agent, supervisor, manager, and relating each agent to their supervisor, manager, role, email address etc. • A way for supervisors to log analyses for individual agents. The inputs would have to be controlled to prevent mistakes. • A way for agents to log in and view their own performance & metrics, and sign-off/acknowledge each analysis. • It has to be capable of logging scores, small categories & yes/no questions, but also long paragraphs (monthly performance reviews, minutes of 1:1 meetings) • Supervisors should be able to view dashboards that show their entire team's performance. • An ability to automatically send emails. For example, when I log something for John Smith, he gets an email letting him know. That's the basics. I'm pretty sure that ideas will form & change as the project progresses. What I'm not sure about is where I should begin. • Should I continue learning SQL? If so, what should I learn about how to integrate it with a web app? • What do I need to learn about web development & web hosting? • What other languages should I learn? How will it/they integrate with the SQL database to present the information with a user-friendly interface? • Is there any other questions I should be asking? If it helps, I also bought courses (but haven't started yet) on "UI & Web Design using Adobe Illustrator CC", and also "Web Development Course: laravel 5.5 ORM and Raw PHP". If these are relevant, it'd be nice to hear it from someone who knows more than me. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read my post! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jan 2018 06:13 PM PST even after 2-3 years of programming in Java, C, Python and assembly, I'm now learning C# and programming in Unity and find myself constantly going back to tutorials to "refresh" myself. And then 1-2 tutorials in, i get bored due to seeing the same stuff, give up and do something else. Not sure how to explain this...but there's this anxiety that prevents me from STARTING the project.

| I’m self taught and I got the job, but... Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:14 AM PST "So… How much they are paying for programmers without a degree?" That came out from a co-worker last week. I'm 34 years old employed Front End Developer from Brazil, self taught like most of you guys reading this post. No college or university degrees. A couple months ago I did this post at FCC https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/one-year-of-fcc-gave-me-my-first-job-as-a-front-end-developer telling a little bit about my prospects after a long journey studying programming from free resources on the internet. Now I'm part of the self taught professionals team and its a shame to state that we are at a great disadvantage. Not only by the numbers(the vast majority working on this field are graduated people), but we're losing in opportunities too. I don't blame my IT friend for that statement. He's just expecting a better payment for his 'plus'. The industry have been conditioning us on that way for a long time: certificates and diplomas can prove that your are better. It's a ticket to the upper level. I understand that though. Back then things were a lot more restricted. information didn't flow around for free like nowdays. I just don't get why we can keep accepting this kind of mentality with the internet all over the place. I'm not some subclass of employee just because my resources aren't usual. I'm doing great on my current job working on lots of different Front End projects. Actually, at the moment, I'm the only web front end on a team of 25 developers. People come to me to ask JS and CSS questions… But somehow it doesn't count too munch for the 'real world'! I don't deserve a chance to even be able to be heard on interviews? Or apply for positions where the prerequisites I already have? On top of that another detail that makes me even more upset: I'am not completely uneducated in the pos- high school. I have a 80% mechanical engineer course on my history and a year of computer science. I did a lot of calculus and statistics. Still doesn't count? Nope. Now I face a new challenge: I'm making 4 dollars/hours on my current job and I need to find something more rentable. If I'm lucky enough I will be able to double this value in 2 or 3 years. It's pretty hard to keep up with that amount and I don't have much of a chance to make more than that without leaving the country. So here I go again: I found out that looking for abroad job without a degree in computer science (or something like that) is almost impossible! I did a lot of applications and it's so frustrating when you are rejected because they can't risk to contact someone overseas without a degree. I got to the point where I had to offer remote assistance to show my competency on the job. "our policy don't allow it". How about the 'CS degree or equivalent is required' - For HTML/CSS and Vue proficiency… Really? To make things a lot harder some countries, like German and Ireland, just don't let international workers apply without a degree(theres a workaround if they have years of experience in the field). I got my current job with the help of the Free Code Camp courses and a lot of online resources. I did online courses from Universities like Harvard and Princeton. I did a variety of Udemy and Udacity courses. I have a lot of personal projects on my GitHub and Codepen. I don't get why people just don't realize or don't care about how important is this experience from outside the classroom. I need to keep moving forward I gotta pay the bills I want a better life for my little baby and I love this programming life but I need to say: some days I feel like I should had been more pragmatic about the dream of the self taught. Sure, I didn't had a lot of options but If you got some money go for a college or a University. Otherwise be prepared and look before you leap. [link] [comments]  |
| Typing tips for new programmers! Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:54 PM PST I think in a chat my teacher mentioned something like "I wouldn't hire a programmer if I saw them using their mouse..." From osxdaily
To select a line, or a word without manually highlighting it, use the shortcuts above, but hold shift as usual. This ended up saving a lot of time! I wonder if this is common knowledge at all because I never really used these before programming. Hope this helps someone, even an intermediate programmer! Happy typing. [link] [comments]  |
| Should I put school group projects on my github? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:53 PM PST I don't really have any experience or side projects on my resume. Would using school group projects be a good idea to put on my github? Our programs were based off some pseudocode or algorithms from our textbook, but we wrote the code so I don't know if that is considered plagiarism. [link] [comments]  |

| Finding developer jobs in Belgium? What are some popular apps and websites there? Posted: 04 Jan 2018 12:22 AM PST Sorry but didn't know where else I could post this. I am Spanish and currently trying to find a job around Brussels in Belgium, here in Spain, most developer job offers are posted on LinkedIn, Infojobs, and some other apps/websites only popular in this country. While trying to find one in Belgium, I only got search results on LinkedIn, is there any other popular website or app where I can find more job offers for software development? Thanks a lot.

| People who have degrees, what did you actually do/learn during the degree. Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:31 PM PST I'm potentially applying for a degree course and am curious as to whether I'm actually able to even do it. I am looking to speak with a lecturer in the future but I wanted to know other people experiences and what helped you. What I'm asking is what type of work did (or do) you do during your degree? For example what kind of programs did you create, what languages did you use, how advanced were they, any work not involving actually programming, etc. [link] [comments]  |
| Wondering what to do next in python Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:23 PM PST I've mastered the python basics but I'm not sure how to go further. when I try to learn more it feels like it doesn't sink in and I have a hard time finding projects to work on. I just feel stuck help would be much appreciated [link] [comments]  |

| Is it worth getting a cs degree? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 04:25 PM PST Or is it enough to go through knowledge by myself? I mean... If I intend to work with it later on... Is it worth it? Right now I chose java to begin with... And it's been fun so far. In this matter, would you start with another one? [link] [comments]  |
| Got offer to do website. 0 knowledge on webdev. What would be my apth? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 11:46 PM PST My boss asked me to do him a website. I am familiar with Java, C++ and mostly Android development. However, never touched webdev. Can someone tell me the path like I'm five? Possibly include Java in it. Website should have basic things, pictures, history. I'd like for objects to move in website. Something in these lines https://villamarghareta.com/en/villa-marghareta-2/ [link] [comments]  |

| Create a notebook/guide for yourself once you've learned something Posted: 03 Jan 2018 08:32 AM PST Something I have found incredibly helpful is creating a guide for yourself once you have learned or utilized something from stack overflow or google in general. This has helped me to slowly build an active knowledge base that I can refer back to for when I forget something and don't want to spend the next half an hour looking for that same link I found a few days prior. It's also been a huge confidence booster for showing that "hey look, I'm actually learning and retaining thing, look at all of these projects I've done!", especially for someone who has failed multiple times at sticking with online courses this has been a boon to me to continue trying to push myself to find that answer and add another line to my guide. For anyone learning any language I would definitely suggest trying this out, and at least for my version (which I'll link below) I have found it to save me much more time than I spend on it. Help yourself for later! Link - You can obviously make this more complex with more columns and content or likely simpler, this was just the format I found easiest for me. It is worth mentioning this is in Python, so my "notebook" may be helpful for anyone learning Python as well! [link] [comments]  |
| Hey hey just want to practice front-end skills and aesthetic Posted: 03 Jan 2018 10:50 PM PST I would like info from beautiful depths of the Internet about all things that would improve my ability to create create create. I have completed many lessons offered by CodeCademy, so I am confident in html,CSS, and introductory JavaScript. I would like to know of textbooks, reference books, or websites that have the best -well structured- content to further pursue my ideas and help me to create something. I have nothing specific in mind yet, but I want to take further the fundamentals that power giants like Etsy, Netflix, SoundCloud, and Facebook. [link] [comments]  |
| How can you write a generic method that returns true if number is prime? Posted: 03 Jan 2018 10:31 PM PST Is this exercise only to make you write generic methods and know how to write one? Because the only thing that can be a prime is positive integer so it makes no sense to make it generic for all numbers or even objects. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jan 2018 06:25 PM PST I'm trying to learn how to build a "To-Do" app using HTML, CSS, and JS. I'm working on the Stylesheet right now and I have the following: header { } The width is set to 100%, but for some reason when I add the 15px padding, it pushes to the right instead of keeping within the width of the page. See below: No Padding: https://gyazo.com/afe0200490bde5e0cb826da77c06f990 Padding: https://gyazo.com/d5a65a82284b8edeee982127cb680d1b Note bottom right border radius in the first vs. the second. Any ideas?? [link] [comments]  |
| Need to cram for a coding interview Posted: 03 Jan 2018 05:59 PM PST Hi everyone! I'm an early CS student invited to interview for a boutique trading firm for the position of quant developer (edit: intern!!). I've got the finance background down, but I've only formally taken an intro cs course (I will have taken intro to software engineering and discrete structures by the time of the internship). Anyone have resources that would help someone like me get a start on basic interview algorithms, etc. in C++ or python? I have used both languages before but my last class used DrRacket to teach us to code, not an industry language. Thanks from this struggling student!!! [link] [comments]  |
| HTML / CSS / Javascript lower level Posted: 03 Jan 2018 09:18 PM PST Where do browsers implement their scripting engines to read HTML, CSS, Javascript? Are there something a developer can come in and tweak or under lock and key? If they are customization can developers come in and add extra things or functionality to them or even make their own that they can package up and send to other people. The only other things I can think of is make a JS interpreter to package and recompile custom code into html, css, javascript similar to many hot frontend frameworks at the moment.

| Books for learning Artificial intelligence, Machine learning, and Data Mining with practice problems Posted: 03 Jan 2018 01:42 PM PST Hi! Let me start off by saying I know these are different topics and no book ought to cover all of these, I just wanted suggestions for either topic since I'm interested in them I just recently graduated and am looking to get my feet wet with some topics I felt weren't covered well at my time there. Like the title says, I would like the books to have practice problems since I learn best with hands on examples. Thank you in advance!! [link] [comments]  |
