    7 Practical Tips for Cheating at Design

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 06:21 AM PST

    Should I learn Node, MongoDB, Express before jumping into full stack frameworks like meteor.js or Firebase (Backend)?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 02:14 PM PST

    Hi /r/webdev,

    I have been learning front end web development for a couple of months and I'm really enjoying it. I've mainly been using react and redux to create simple apps and sites for my own personal enjoyment and perhaps entrepreneurial interest when I get better at it.

    I would like to explore making web apps with a fully functional backend but I'm not too sure which technologies to start learning.

    My understanding is that the most common stack for JavaScript developers is MEAN/MERN?

    Is it necessary to learn the fundamentals of mongo, express, node before I can look at platforms like meteor or Firebase?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    How stressful is your life after becoming a somewhat "experienced" freelance developer?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:34 PM PST

    I've been exploring and researching freelancing for a short while now. Like for many folks, location independence, time flexibility, and not answering to a direct "boss" (client is perfectly okay) are big for me.

    Understandably, the beginning stages of setting yourself up as a freelancer must be very stressful - but after you've established a reputation, systems, and processes in place, in what ways is the lifestyle still stressful, and to what degree? To be frank, I don't handle long-term stress THAT well, but I also haven't really been in such an autonomous position where the apparent freedom/autonomy might "override" the stress involved.

    Online points based booking/rental system

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 02:08 PM PST

    I´m trying to set up a website which allows users to pay a monthly subscription in exchange for points that can be used to rent a wide variety of (physical) items. It´s for a small community, so theres no shipping involved, as the users pick up the items at at local store, but here's what I think I need:

    • Users need to be able to specify the date, time and duration of their booking/rental - preferably via a calendar for each item, with an integrated pricing system.

    • An option for users to purchase more points.

    • I need to be able to set up a pricing system, with points being automatically added/subtracted to/from the user accounts.

    • An option for me to give more points to users.

    • An option to set up individual calendars and rental durations for each item/group of items.

    Do any of you fine people know whether such a solution exsist, or I need to pay to have someone create it for me?

    Am I too stupid for asking questions?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 05:45 AM PST

    Well today I decided to post on stack overflow to ask a question. Which I usually don't do fairly often because I can find what I need if I don't know something. Anyways, I decided to share some code because I want to write a simple js library(for practice) to manipulate dom elements and animate them. Code posted: https://imgur.com/a/ZGEKA So basically the question was...is it okay to write a constructor function and just add methods in it or is there a better alternative that I should look into. Well I instantly got sh*tted on and downvoted to oblivion. Am I too stupid to ask questions like this?

    Full-time devs, what do your "push to production" look like?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 04:48 PM PST

    I work at a company where things are a little dated. We have a "push night" once a month, where barely anything is automated, and the whole team sticks around while one DBA/senior dev moves the code from our "staging environment" to our "production environment". After it's complete, we fix any bugs that our QA team finds (while none of this is automated).

    Just to draw a comparison and bring some points to my boss, what do your code releases look like?

    Rolling your own token based authentication system in PHP

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 02:43 PM PST

    Hello, for my latest project I'm attempting to create my own token based authentication system. I'm using PHP and JSON to field requests from iOS and Android clients, and I want to make sure the security situation is airtight.

    I'm wondering if anyone with some security/crypto knowledge can look over my workflow and see if it's viable. I've outlined the steps below:

    1. User successfully signs up or in through the API with a username and password

    2. Tokens in the database that are older than 2 weeks old are flushed

    3. A new token entry is created, with columns: "created" a timestamp, "user_id" the id the authenticating user, and "token" a random 64 char string

    4. Token string is returned to the client for local storage

    5. User then requests a private server resource, aka a resource the requires authentication before data is returned

    6. Tokens in the database that are older than 2 weeks old are flushed (again)

    7. User provided token is checked against database entries (that are guaranteed to be valid because they were flushed previously)

    Does this seem like a sound and secure method of authentication over an API? Any input is greatly appreciated.

    Can't upload file using PHP

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 02:41 PM PST

    I'm using a XAMPP server running apache and mysql. All I'm trying to do is have a form where the user can add a file to a directory. When I submit a file, nothing happens. The page reloads and there aren't any errors reported, but the directory is still empty.

     <form action="index.html" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> Send this file: <input name="image" type="file" /> <input type="submit" value="Send File" /> </form> <?php if(isset($_FILES['image'])){ $errors= array(); $file_name = $_FILES['image']['name']; $file_size = $_FILES['image']['size']; $file_tmp = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name']; $file_type = $_FILES['image']['type']; $file_ext=strtolower(end(explode('.',$_FILES['image']['name']))); $expensions= array("jpeg","jpg","png"); if(in_array($file_ext,$expensions)=== false){ $errors[]="extension not allowed, please choose a JPEG or PNG file."; } if($file_size < 2097152) { $errors[]='File size must be excately 2 MB'; } if(empty($errors)==true) { move_uploaded_file($file_tmp,"E:/xampp/htdocs/BoAWebApp/test/".$file_name); echo "Success"; }else{ print_r($errors); } } ?>

    How to INSERT user data into MYSQL database on PayPal button purchase

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:13 PM PST

    Hello,

    So I have a MYSQL database that I manage via phpmyadmin on cPanel.

    I also have a single PayPal "Buy Now" button on my website.

    Whenever someone purchases something via that button, I would like to perform an INSERT statement into my table which will include the PayPal user's name, email, address and the date they have purchased the item.

    I have looked around for examples of this but they are all extremely unhelpful and often trying to do other things.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks.

    Is there a more efficient way to achieve this SVG animation?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:05 PM PST

    Link: https://codepen.io/digitaldervish/pen/QQxeKY

    I'm starting to experiment with CSS animations and transitions as well as SVG graphics and javascript animation libraries like Greensock and D3.

    In particular, each of the lines requires a CSS declaration to rotate it, and it seems like there should be a way to programmatically do the same thing. Any suggestions?

    Anyone have any idea of the tech stack behind HQ?

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:00 PM PST

    HQ is a trivia app that hosts live trivia twice a day at 3pm EST and 9pm EST. When they play they have had up to 1m+ users active for the ~20 minutes or so the game is live, and they handle responses from all 1m+ users in real time.

    You have 10s to answer a question, and then they show the results from everyone usually within the next few seconds after that, while streaming a live video.

    Anyone have any idea how they'd do this scale for the short term games?
