    Seeking advice for an 84 year old looking to get into the web development industry

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 01:33 PM PST

    About a few months ago my grandfather discovered me coding on my computer and he was really intrigued by it. I spent some time explaining the basics to him and we worked on a small simple project together. Ever since then he has been coding everyday and he loves it ALOT. He is currently working on the basics of HTML and CSS, and although he may not learn or type as fast as the average person, I am amazed by how steadily he's progressed.

    Just recently however, he's explained to me on how badly he wished he took up web development when he was younger (could've done it in his 60's). He feels like it's too late to get into the industry given his age, but I truly believe that with his great health and the determination he's shown so far, he could find some sort of work in web development sooner or later. And he really, really wants to work somewhere because he's so tired of sitting home and doing nothing all day. It will likely take a year or two until he has the competent skillet for finding work and I really want to make sure that I can help him make this happen.

    I wonder if there are any people out there with a similar story, or if you discovered your passion after retirement and found a way to "get in". I'm only 26 years old so that's not something I can relate to easily, which is why I've come to this subreddit to ask for advice regarding this situation. Thanks so much for reading/replying.

    Beautiful and functional checkboxes without JavaScript

    I got tired of experimenting with CSS blend mode options and couldn't find a visual list, so I threw one together.

    Are you still using jQuery? If so what about it keeps you using it?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:49 PM PST

    I feel like these days with all the amazing tools available to us and the advances in the language itself that jQuery is basically dead however I doubt that's actually the case.

    What I would like to know is who is still using it, what for, and why you chose jQuery over plain JS or another library.

    Filtering projects on a GitHub Pages site based on technology used?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:24 PM PST

    I'm in the process of building out my personal website. I won't link it as it's a bit shit right now.

    Basic layout will be bio, projects, contact. I want to attach tags to my project page (i.e. "HTML", "CSS", "JavaScript", "PHP") that when clicked on will only show the thumbnails of projects with those tags.

    On GitHub Pages I can only use HTML/CSS/JS--There's no back-end databases I can tap into to achieve this.

    Have any of you developed something similar previously?

    • What technologies did you use to achieve it?
    • Is it worthwhile building this out myself or using some kind of CMS?

    Combining Frontend and Backend Frameworks: What even is a backend, then?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:14 PM PST

    I have been exploring the use of both frontend and backend frameworks together in a single app.

    As I've been studying, I have noticed that these applications appear to be primarily frontend-centric, utilizing the full feature set of the frontend framework yet also overtaking a number of key responsibilities that these backend frameworks are also capable of. This essentially completely removes the V from the MVC backend framework, reducing the backend down to a mere api whose sole functionality now only consists of modeling data to and from the database, controllers mostly to facilitate that process, and secure authentication and validation.

    Views on the other hand is then the complete responsibility of the frontend framework. Interpolation of data to the client side, dynamically displaying data, and any other behavior that interacts with client-side content is now essentially a useless feature that the backend frameworks happens to have in this instance. The backend now has essentially no role at all regarding templates/views or any of that behavior besides occasionally serving up static assets except as a thin receptacle for the frontend's api calls to the database for grabbing data. This just feels really out of place for me, but maybe I am missing something.

    Given all of that, what even is a backend in this case anyway? What is a backend framework and it's purpose when paired with a frontend framework? Is this really all there is to the backend? I can't help but think there must be more to this and that I'm missing something. It just feels wrong to me that to not make the most out of both feature sets of both frameworks.

    Moreover, how can I even handle sensitive data securely if I'm no longer having the backend/MVC framework directly linked to my forms and html? Is a simple http REST api call to and from the backend really sufficient enough to safely and securely pass sensitive data to the backend and back for authentication, validation, and CRUD operations with the database?

    Forgive me if what I am asking and am confused about is really quite simple, as hard as that is for me to believe. I have a tendency to overthink thing a lot, and I am also still pretty new to web development.

    What am I not getting here? Is this really all there is to backends and backend frameworks paired with frontend frameworks?

    Lazy load with JQuery? How do I send the data to the correct css selector after running several async calls?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 02:59 PM PST

    https://pastebin.com/90T6mPAt

    Basically I need to do this for 22 vehicles. Getting the company-defined Vehicle Number from a table row, send off an Ajax request with that number, and when I get a response, I need the response to go back to a cell within THAT table row.

    It seems because of the async nature, by the time I get the response, the script has continued and its overwritten the row I'm looking for. (Line 33 and Line 25 in the paste-bin are not referencing the same row anymore because the script has continued.)

    [this is code is not meant to run, just sketching out the problem, I see the typo too :P ]

    How should I handle this?

    Thanks guys.

    CSS Variables

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 01:56 PM PST

    Hey,

    Stumbled on CSS variables and can't get my head around why most people use preprocessors for CSS. Wouldn't it be way easier for people to use css variables instead of using "addons" or am I missing something here?

    Woud i be stupid to start learning it, as someone who just want to builds small applications for myself but also smaller business?

    If i look at "can i use it?" it seems that most user (if not maybe all) will be able to use it > https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-variables

    No idea of what css variables are > https://medium.freecodecamp.org/everything-you-need-to-know-about-css-variables-c74d922ea855

    How can i work on improving my skills as a web developer?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 05:11 AM PST

    Hey guys, I've been learning web development by myself since 4-5 months and im having some decent results so far. Im following the map from freecodecamp and these are some of my projects. https://codepen.io/abhinavthinktank/ (FCC curriculum random projects) https://react-dungeon-master.herokuapp.com/ (dungeon crawler game)

    I want to know what i can do to improve further on my skillset as im enjoying web development alot. I feel i haven't yet created a 'real' usable website yet, here are some of my questions:

    1) Should i be aiming to create websites that can be used commercially in terms of design and performance? Should i just try to make as many of these as possible?

    2) Im not too good at web design, however im interested in it should i try to work on improving at it as well? Is there any path i can follow for that?

    3) When deciding on how to make a website responsive should i try and keep all my bases covered by learning the different ways it can be done?(Bootstrap and other frameworks, flex-box, css-grid,media-queries) or just focus on one of these for the timebeing?

    4) What should my checklist when i build a project? ie (Is the website responsive? Is it cross browser compatible? Does it support all languages? Search engine related stuff ( I know nothing about this) Performance?)

    Hope someone can answer this post and my question makes sense :)

    TLDR: Have been working on learning web development for a while with mini projects,looking for things to improve on and do to improve my skills.

    CMS transfer

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 01:37 PM PST

    I currently have a website built in joomla as my main site. I am in the process of switching hosting to another company and want to keep the site intact but transfer it over to a subdomain of my new hosting.

    I have tried all the usual "tools": "install from an existing site" etc but none of them seem to work.

    I am assuming I cannot just install Joomla fresh on my subdomain and copy and paste the files from my previous site?

    Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Web Development Degree vs Self Taught

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 01:15 PM PST

    Hi,

    Just looking for some quick guidance. I am currently looking into signing up for web development classes at my local community college. There are courses for HTML, CSS, even Javascript and Java as part of the degree. However from doing research it seems that web development moves at such a fast pace that I've seen recommendations against taking university classes for this kind of career. Would anyone who has experience taking web development at the college level have any insight over which path is better, college vs. self teaching such as Treehouse or another online bootcamp? This is coming from someone with no previous degree, so I'm not looking to switch careers really just get my first one started.

    Thank you.

    <label> Showing Up in QTY Field on WooCommerce?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2018 11:33 AM PST

    Anyone ever seen anything like this before? The word "Quantity" is showing up in place of the input area to plus/minus the qty before adding to cart on the single product detail page: https://i.imgur.com/hfdiicZ.png

    Here's the code it's throwing out, some sort of "screen-reader-text" label? https://i.imgur.com/UthZVIs.png

    If I click on the word, it switches back to a functional input text QTY box and the plus/minus buttons disappear. Really strange. Any ideas?

    If I use a different theme it goes away, so I think it's a theme issue.

    Are there any shortcodes I could throw into functions.php to just remove the label? I would be willing to pay to get this fixed, or would welcome any advice on how to fix it myself!
