    How do I get better at design?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 06:25 AM PST

    I'm a front-end developer for a small family owned consulting company. I basically just program the files they give me and then the web designer will go through and fix and/or make the individual pages more "snazzy".

    I'm new to the industry and I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to work… but either way, I feel like I create a lot of work for him. How do I get better at designing pages? Does anyone have any suggestions or resources they can share?

    Where are the webdev links?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 06:41 AM PST

    Much of this subreddit is taken up with design topics that would be better suited to /r/web_design

    A lot of the rest is about recruitment, interviews, client issues and other stuff that might have webdev nuances, but could be better dealt with in subreddits specific to jobs, freelancing, etc, IMO.

    Checking the sub right now, only 4 of the top 10 posts are actually about web dev. Maybe I'm in a minority, but I come here hoping to see web development discussion, techniques and links, and I'm kind of bored with the sub now. Am I out of line?

    How do you guys work on multiple projects?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 07:35 AM PST

    I'm mostly self taught, and it's going well, but as I'm ramping up my capacity, I'm having a helluva time switching between projects! Multiple postgres db's and different heroku logins are my biggest issues. I feel like there's got to be an easy solution for this, but stackoverflow is letting me down!

    Wireframe/UX card decks?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 07:22 AM PST

    Has anyone used something like this?

    Having physical cards seems like a good alternative to save time brainstorming instead of sketching out a wireframe by hand or using an application. I've thought about making something similar for myself, but I wanted to see how someone who has used them feels about them.

    Thoughts?

    Schema.org is in place, Google markup tester sees it, but Facebook Pixel doesn't

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 02:27 PM PST

    I've added my product schema info to this page: https://www.bambamboom.com/hedgehog-dino-mint

    For some reason, it's being picked up perfectly by Google's structured data testing tool (https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bambamboom.com%2Fhedgehog-dino-mint%2F), but the Schema.org markup is not being picked up by my Facebook pixel.

    I've purged the site, cleared the cache … everything, and it's not being picked up by the pixel.

    Chrome keeps clearing console on page load

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 01:14 PM PST

    Say I put console.log('test') and a reload the page. I refresh the page and I see "test" for a split second, then it disappears. Same with errors. This happens across multiple projects with different tech. Doesn't happen on firefox. Is anyone experiencing this? Any fixes?

    How to find a programmer friend?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 08:08 AM PST

    The question might sound crazy or stupid but I'm so serious about it. I'm an advanced web developer, python and c++ programmer and I have no friend who shares me the same interests, I can't stay a lone programmer like this, I want at least 1 partner to help each others with our projects and maybe start our own project. I tried to find a programmer friend in the internet, but it's seems like they have there own partners and don't want to stick up with strangers like me. I'm really confused and little upset about this.

    Who here makes money building ecommerce sites? Or Web apps in general.

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 09:22 AM PST

    If so how to you find clients, how much do you charge for a project etc. So some background on me: I started learning code a year ago (HTML, CSS, JS, a little PHP and WP) and more recently I am trying to find my niche. I have an interest in web applications and UX/UI design. I hate Web Design, static websites bore me to tears. I like the back end programming logic that comes along with Web apps. I figured a good entry level place to start would be ecommerce sites compared to social platforms and more complex web apps etc. So I just want to know who makes money doing it to see if it's worth focusing on. And get an idea of what someone would hire a web app developer to actually do.

    Where can I get Images?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 02:41 PM PST

    I'm pretty new to web development. I have started a few courses in HTML, CSS and PHP and I'm falling in love with it.

    I'd like to start applying what I'm learning and maybe start building a portfolio, but I'm quite worried about the images I will use.

    What are the rules around using images and where can I find some good resources for backgrounds, icons and so on that I can use?

    I am able to create my own, and plan on doing so, but for the time being I'd like to concentrate on learning the coding side of things.

    Just finished my first website

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 10:47 AM PST

    Website & repository

    Is the code somewhat 'clean'? How's the responsive design?

    Point me out some mistakes that I make.

    Should I learn bootstrap and sass or just jump straight into js?

    A quick (and probably a little silly) question about PHP

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 10:45 AM PST

    I don't have much experience with server side programming but I've found myself in need of a custom API.

    It's not too complicated, mostly just a wrapper and sort-of caching mechanism for another 3rd party API.

    I have noticed that calls to said 3rd party API take quite a bit of time (up to 10s at times), and it has me a little worried about the performance of the future client-side interface I'm going to build for this.

    My question is this: if I make multiple asynchronous calls to my API, are they going to be resolved in separate threads or one-by-one? What if multiple users are using the app, will the entire API lock up until the last call is resolved?

    For the life of mine, I can't word this question properly for Google...

    Help displaying multiple restaurants in one page in Vuejs with an Expressjs backend ?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 01:58 PM PST

    Hello Everyone!

    As part of an internship application process, I've been asked to make a web app that can list restaurants (Read from a mongodb database) like this. I've exposed an API endpoint using Expressjs that I want to use from Vuejs, that makes a call to the database (using mongoose) and gets an array of the restaurant info from it and it looks like this:

    { "_id" : ObjectId("5a0c6711fb3aac66aafe26cc"), "picture" : "http://placehold.it/150x150", "name" : "Permadyne", "email" : "leilaware@permadyne.com", "city" : "Rabat", "location" : { "type" : "Point", "coordinates" : [ -6.75058, 33.81395 ] } }

    (With different name, and location for every restaurant of course).

    My question is: How do I make a component that transforms that JSON data into something that looks like the picture that I linked to above.

    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    [question] Web Development on a ASUS Chromebook Flip | Without an online IDE

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 01:18 PM PST

    Hello /r/webdev,

    I purchased an ASUS Chromebook Flip about two years ago for a cheap solution to on-the-go computing (however I'm usually at my desk if I'm working), but I've tried before to start coding on my chromebook and I've never found a solution that works for this particular one.

    I've tried to use crouton to get a Linux Distro running on my Chromebook Flip, but with no luck.

    I primarily code in PHP using Laravel so I need something with a command line and the ability to install LAMP | XAMPP. Any ideas of what I could try? I'm just honestly not a fan in the slightest of online editors. I tend to use a lot of keyboard shortcuts and would love to get my Atom Editor on this machine.

    Thanks ! *Note: If you know a better sub for this post I'd be grateful to hear that as well.

    Having trouble with mobile formats

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 01:00 PM PST

    Hello. I have coded a simple photography website that works well on the iPhone. But I have a few friends that have the galaxy s8 and it shows up differently. For example in portrait mode, about 20% of the screen at the bottom is white, but the whole photo looks fine as is.

    I have the viewport tag set in the head of the html, but I'm not sure if anyone has had an issue like this before. I didn't post the code but if need be I can.

    Any ideas will be helpful

    I hate JavaScript.

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 12:38 PM PST

    Hi all, I've been trying to learn JavaScript for what seems like forever and it hasn't clicked. I find it hard to comprehend and boring to learn/code. It's only fun when I figure something out which is rare. At this point though, I don't care if it's fun, I just need to understand it. There are SO many resources online but none I've found that really grab me.

    Anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions on a good resource or ELI5 for JavaScript? An online course I can follow along with? Something that won't put me to sleep.

    Thanks!

    Malicious Mining Script Use Cases!??

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 12:19 PM PST

    Ok, this is the first time I'm reading about a Nation State doing this sort of thing but it's not the first time I've read about this kind of malware. I'm pretty sure Amazon was infected with something similar not so long ago.

    https://captainaltcoin.com/according-to-a-new-report-egypt-is-secretly-using-citizens-computers-to-mine-cryptocurrency/

    So here's my question.. I'm new to IT and security...I'm not a coder or programmer...yet...but it's things like this that get me interested because I can think of a dozen ways to use something like this in an ethical way that adds value to ppls lives.

    How hard would it be to use a script like this in an app for say a charity. Download this Red Cross app and donate your CPU power to a good cause...or rather than a blogger muddying up their site with ads just allow users to optin to donating CPU resources to compensate the blogger etc.

    To be honest I'm a little shocked that we don't already see this. Maybe im missing something but it doesn't seem like it would be that hard? Thoughts?

    Do you guys ever feel just utterly unproductive?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 12:18 PM PST

    I wasn't productive yesterday and I'm still not productive today. Just feel generally unable to think. Part of me is like - I did nothing for two days and it's going to come back to bite me so I better make it up in the weekend. But part of me is like - the cycle of unproductivity will just continue unless I take a nice long weekend to get away from this.

    Anyone else ever feel the same?

    How do you use fingerprinting in your build process and app?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2018 12:17 PM PST

    I've been trying to sharpen up on my build scripts like gulp and I often see fingerprinting using gulp-rev or similar. These packages often rename a file (e.g. main.css => main-14962cdfe9.css) and produce an assets.json that contains the new mapping (e.g. {"main.css": "main-14962cdfe9.css" }).

    The gulp-rev docs then recommends one of three options.

    1. A step in the build process that searches the source code for the original path and replace it with the fingerprinted path.
    2. AJAX request the manifest, and add the assets in at runtime.
    3. Serverside (e.g. PHP) function to render the correct fingerprinted path.

    All of these seem like a lot of effort to me. Generically (not specific to gulp-rev), do you guys use fingerprinting? Which method do you use? Do you like it? Is it worth the effort?
