    Any workaround for this Safari bug with a Bootstrap 4 modal?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 10:14 AM PDT

    I have a site that has a fixed sidebar and within that sidebar there is a modal. When I open that modal, everything works fine in Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and even Internet Explorer 11, but in Safari, only the sidebar gets dark from the modal backdrop and you'll either see none of the modal or just part of it, depending on how wide your window is.

    Demo of the problem

    If this was just normal HTML, I could easily fix this by moving the modal outside of the sidebar. However, this site uses Vue and Bootstrap-Vue, so the modal is stored in the same Vue file as the component that uses the modal. I'd like to keep it that way, if possible.

    Trickmaze Code on company site?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 10:57 AM PDT

    So I am utterly confused by this, it could have a simple solution but I can't figure it out.

    On my companies website I found in the live source code of the home page this line: <a href="https://tricksmaze.com/sites-like-craigslist/" style="display: none">Best Sites Like Craigslist</a>

    It is not in our github branches so I thought it was being generated by some script on the page, but I just SSH'd into the server to take a look at the source code and it is there.

    I don't know how it could have gotten there and why it doesn't carry over to github. Is there something on our server generating this?

    How do I know a career in web dev is right for me?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 01:34 PM PDT

    Considering a career in front end development. I enjoy HTML and CSS and have rudimentary knowledge of Javascript. The prospect of creating websites seems fun and I really enjoy the design aspect of it and ensuring users have a great experience. I also think coding it would be challenging yet rewarding.

    From what I've read it seems like a career in web dev is for someone who is very analytical and detail oriented and also someone who has a very scientific mindset. That isn't really who I am. I am detail oriented but I'm not a super analytical person. I just want to be sure this is right for me, because I do feel excited and interested in front end development.

    What should I know about web dev? What are some of the greatest challenges? Can anyone really do it? I could use some insight from experienced developers.Thanks!

    Designing a Calculator

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 03:43 PM PDT

    Hi, I am wanting to build a calculator that does total calorie expenditure for the day like this one

    https://tdeecalculator.net

    But I would also like to be able to be able to input body fat % estimation from another formula that uses waist to height ratio. As someone with no programming experience how difficult would that be and where should I start? Can I insert it into wordpress or will it be more complicated than that?

    Thanks

    Is there a quick way to setup Ubuntu LAMP stack in Virtualbox...? (for dev purposes only)

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 09:27 AM PDT

    I'm wondering if there is a quick way to setup an Ubuntu LAMP server on Virtualbox without going through each step manually... even installing Ubuntu and going through all the install prompts, I would prefer to skip all of that.

    Just need a quick development environment I can boot into.

    Something like Heroku or DigitalOcean droplets, just click and go... I will actually use one of those, if I can't find a way to do it locally without too much effort.

    Thoughts?

    What are some tools to use to determine issues with a site’s SEO.

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 11:20 AM PDT

    I've been working on a site for a digital marketing agency. Unfortunately, they've had a recent drop in google rankings. The company thinks that the drop came from my changes. I believe that the drop might be from a lack of content updates. The updates that I've done are css, js and speed improvements.

    I guess I'm looking for a ways to prove I'm right/wrong.

    What language to start off with in web dev?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 04:42 AM PDT

    I've gotten a few very basic programming classes in Java and since then I've self taught myself more Java and picked up C#. While they're a great bit of fun, I'd like to learn how to properly make websites and get more to the web side of things.

    What I want to know is, coming from Java/C#, what language should I pick up to start doing web stuff? The website I have in mind would be a fairly simple one with functionality for logging in, downloading files from it and so on, fairly simple stuff.

    First thing that comes to mind is HTML. Is that good to start with, and do I need to learn a seperate language for backed (logging in, etc)?

    Quick edit: I want to learn the languages, not just create a single page :)

    What's optimal career-wise?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 07:48 AM PDT

    Hello all. I'm 24, living in Italy and learning web development by my own.

    What is the optimal choice on the long term, career-wise?

    • find a job in Italy
    • freelance in Italy
    • relocate in another EU country

    Especially in the first and third case, what are the real chances to find a job?

    Here in my country they ask for Computer Science degree, mostly everywhere.

    Sure, EU offers better opportunities but if so: what company is willing to hire someone coming from another country, when there are thousands of native speaker devs?

    Since February I'm in a scholarship program created by Udacity and Google. Can this cover, even if in some part, the lack of a degree?

    Thank you for reading my doubts and worries.

    Node.js, npm and webpack on a distant server

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 12:48 PM PDT

    Hey guys !

    I'm currently learning node.js and building apps with npm and webpack, and I really like it. And as i'm finishing my diploma, I need to apply to new school and find an internship to continue my education. So my next step is rebuilding my portfolio, and I wanted to do it using express.js and a templating engine like jade.

    But I have this hosting as it's free for students, and I just read that I can't use node.js on it.
    So my question is: what can I still do with npm and webpack exactly to still make something more than a simple static website ? Is it possible to still use a js templating engine and then like render it in static ?

    I know I can still use PHP but I want to use other languages as I aspire to be more JavaScript oriented in my future career.

    Sorry for asking a dumb question like this but I didn't find anything that answered my questions.

    Thanks !

    [solo dev] b

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 12:31 PM PDT

    EDIT: genius title... My bad.

    I'm a solo wannabe dev building a couple projects to add to my resume using the Django framework (Python). On both my projects I've hit huge walls when creating the user interface because I never manage build it to how I have the website pictured in my mind.

    On one project I'm using Bootstrap 4 and on the other one I'm using CSS: Grid. In my noob opinion Boostrap code itself looks messy and terrible to learn. On the other hand I'm really liking Grid (I barely started using it yesterday) but it seems nice and clean.

    My disadvantage is that I have very little to none knowledge of JS and have had very little exposure to both B and Grid. B seems to cover my basic JS needs but my mind really doesn't want to learn B. I seem to like Grid however I would need to complement with JS elements.

    Sorry for the terrible question. I'm really in a negative mindset about this. Feel like I went from 60 to 1mph on my projects because of lacking the skills to create a front end.

    Does anyone know of a good HTML5 drawing library?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 12:17 PM PDT

    I am working on a website where users can take screenshots and draw on them. I am having trouble finding a good drawing library to use. Right now I am using literally canvas! but I am wondering if there's a better alternative. Whether that alternative is free or paid, it does not matter.

    [Question] How do they not load a new url, but change the page and url?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 07:07 AM PDT

    On the website contiducco.it, they change from the home page to the about page seamlessly. When viewing the page from inspect element, we can see that it is really just one page, with a changing url and transitions. How do they do this? Thanks!

    What do you think is the best technology to use to build a social-media+forum type of platform?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2018 10:18 AM PDT

    I am wondering what y'all think would be the best technology to build a platform that combines some familiar elements of social media and forum-based platforms. My hope is to create a social network where people like me who are sick of the shitty parts of Facebook but get a lot out of the music-based groups or other niche communities can go. I know that Reddit fits that description well but Reddit lacks a lot of the social aspect that does make Facebook awesome e.g. having your identity tied to your account.
    I have experience with PHP, MySQL and a little bit of experience with Node.js but am really open to using this project as an exercise to learn something new if there are technologies outside of my personal stack that would lend themselves well to this project. Some basic requirements:

    • option to log in with facebook or google(it would be encouraged for a user to make use of this option)
    • different user types; listener/fan, artist, venue, etc.
    • the ability to use assets from any social media accounts the user may have linked e.g. photos, events etc.
    • a Slack-like front end architecture i.e. different "workspaces" at the root
    • scalability!

    There are likely more that I can't remember. I haven't written anything down yet so bear with me, I think this thread will help to fine tune and lock down concepts but my focus is on discussing possible technologies to use to build this project e.g. Node.js vs Python or solutions for linking-accounts to social medias.
