    Best JS Lib for Charts?

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 01:39 AM PDT

    Which JS lib would you recommend for line charts? Zoom, pan, datetime on (both) axis, good performance with large datasets are quite important.

    So far I've tried two, Chart.js and Dygraphs.js.

    Chart: looks very good out of the box. Too good in fact. Had to disable animations, fills, points, tension on lines for performance, which are all enabled by default. Performance lagging with large datasets. Pan/zoom needs a plugin, which is quite broken, my pull request is already on Github with some fixes.

    Dygraphs: seems much stronger on the data side, eats CSV natively, promises good performance, but it looks horrible by default. I was quite put off initially.

    What is your pick, dear Redditors?

    EDIT: I'm only interested in open source libs. Highcharts is out.

    What are the most important aspects of backend programming that I should know?

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 03:12 AM PDT

    Hello !

    I'm a C++ programmer who just got a backend job for this summer. I'm going to participate in a team to create a website with me being the backend guy.

    My main language is C++, however I'm comfortable with a lot of other languages, including (but not limited to), Python, PHP, C#, Java, SQL, etc. I've done most of my webdev at school with PHP/HTML/CSS in the classic way (no frameworks), and I've practiced Flask at home a bit too.

    Programming stays programming, so I don't really fear the job, but what are the most important aspects of backend development (that are common to every framework/language) that I should learn/be aware of to make the "transition" as painless as possible?

    e.g. :

    • Main concepts/theory
    • Any special design patterns/programming techniques that are commonly used? (e.g. MVC)

    I already know that I'll have to touch Javascript one way or another, even if it's not my favorite language, but what else should I know? Any framework/language to recommend ?

    Thanks a lot, and have a wonderful day !

    How do I create restrictions for guests?

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 05:56 AM PDT

    I am currently building a page that has some different features. I want my visitors to be able to use the features, but only a set number of times each day, unless they have a user on the page and is logged in, then the features are unlimited.

    A simple example: The content of a page changes whenever the page is refreshed (pulling random content from my database). I have a button that says "Get new quote", and whenever the user clicks it, the page refreshes (I know I can use ajax to skip the refreshing part, and if that makes it easier for me to create these restrictions, I will look into how I do that (I'm still a JavaScript rookie)).
    I need to detect how many times the user has clicked, and whenever it reaches 10, the user should get a message saying that they have reached the daily limit, bla bla bla.

    I know I can use cookies to count the number of refreshes, then run another php script to display whatever I want instead of the quote when the limit is reached. The problem is, that doing it this way, the user can simply delete the cookie, and keep using the feature if they want.

    So, what are my options here? I tried googling it, but to be honest, I had no idea what search terms to use to find an answer, that's why I came here.

    Has anyone tried to achieve the effect from the link above? I think it's really impressive and I tried to take a stab at it.

    Obviously mine is far worse but it works. Does anyone have any kind of resources I could follow to more closely achieve what they did? Any kind of tutorial would be great!

    Stopping website thieves?

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 08:36 AM PDT

    I work in the affiliate networking market, and we deal with making landing pages for our products. However, recently thieves have been directly ripping my landing pages and swapping in their own products and affiliate links.

    I have heard that some web developers hide code in their websites so that if the site is ripped off, it will redirect ~10% of the traffic from the ripped site back to the original site. Would anyone be able to help explain how to implement this?

    What should I learn (for server side)? If I want to make an e-commerce or IMDB like websites.

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 03:44 AM PDT

    New to web development. I already started HTML and CSS.

    I want to make a website that takes user ratings/data like IMDB/e-commerce (not on the same scale) and wants to play around with lots of mathematical functions with these data. So what should I learn that will help me (especially with mathematical functions).

    I need some advices for a not so serious project

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 09:07 AM PDT

    I was looking for a project to challenge myself. I was thinking about a management software for a little store, it will be accessible by a web browser in the same LAN. The original idea is to gain some experience in web development and databases. I was thinking about using a Python or Go framework as backend with a SQLite database (in the Go case, etcd or a similar software). I already have a bit of experience on Python, Go and Rust (I just tried this one a little ago and I liked it very much), but I'm ok with learning new languages. What would you do (the choice is not limited on the software i am planning to use)

    Sorry for my english, I'm not mother tongue :P

    Trouble with React router dom and passing state down to child components

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 09:07 AM PDT

    In short, I am having a difficult time passing down state to child components inside a route. I have been searching for some time (probably just searching incorrectly) but I haven't found an answer that suits my use case. There doesn't seem to be any (good at least) documentation on how to accomplish this.

    This is how my code currently looks, based on something I found while searching but their solution isn't helpful.

    Route path="/query" render={ props => (<section className="query-results-container">{console.log(props)}<Link to="/" className="btn btn-primary" onClick={this.handleGoBack}><i className="fas fa-arrow-left"></i> Return</Link><QueryPage search={this.state.query} category={this.state.category} /></section>)}/>

    If you wanna view the full repo -> https://github.com/ajCastiglione/react-news-app

    This is just a to keep busy type of project, trying to learn and further my understanding of react.

    Im not sure if i'm just doing it completely wrong or if there is a way to accomplish what I need. Any help is appreciated.

    EDIT: So bit of a hacky workaround but using sessionStorage i was able to accomplish what I needed.

    What Language/Framework should I use for my Project? - Pandemic (Boardgame) Helper

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 02:19 AM PDT

    Hi I work as a Softwaredeveloper professionally and mainly work with PHP/Magento 2.

    I want to see something fresh and build my own project.

    It's mainly an App but I want it to be used on Browsers too.

    It's about the Pandemic-Board game with Expansions Rules can be found here

    Main feature is to track the state and actions of the Bioterrorist and validate his actions.

    I also want to add more FEatures in the future:

    1. Step-By-Step guides to prepare the game for each module.
    2. Track the board state in general and display data and make it searchable
    3. Multiple devices - to make it easier for multiple people to setup the board
    4. ...

    I want to start with a simple Frontend only app but I might want to app a business-logic bakcend in the future. I also don't want to host it anywhere immediatly, so something that is pure Javascript is nice.

    Please help me chose the right Framework :-) I'm currently considering (in order):

    1. Vue.js - Never wroked with it. Looks interesting and is the Frontend for Laravel in case I want to app a Backend later
    2. Angular - Worked with it - Loooks fitting
    3. React - I probably need Redux. At first glance it doesn't look fitting

    Does JSON data storage still make sense for read-only products if I wish to have users save some of those products on a list?

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 03:34 PM PDT

    Right now I'm testing a proof of concept web app that's entirely done in the front end, to organize a list of related tech products and users can search and filter those products according to different specs. I plan to add more categories of tech products which will each appear in their own page view.

    The products and their specs are stored in a JSON file and different criteria/specs is indicated by the keys of each product's attributes. Data is added manually and search is very responsive for now, though I will probably change it as the dataset gets larger to maintain speed and efficiency.

    Suppose I want users to save a list of their favorite products. Does it still make sense to keep using JSON? I know that MongoDB is an option but don't know if it's still the right choice to use for a flat hierarchy such as a list. Are there better document based options that are more lightweight than MongoDB? Or should I replace the entire JSON data with a typical SQL data storage?

    Best Web Development Tech Stack in 2018

    Posted: 01 Jun 2018 02:32 PM PDT

    So I'm a little confused. Whenever I just google "Web Development 2018," the results pop up for 2018 Full-Stack JavaScript (React/Redux, Node, Express, MongoDB/PostgresSQL).

    No mentions of PHP, Laravel, Wordpress, MySQL, jQuery at all. I go on Udemy and a lot of the very recent courses as of June 2018 that teaches Web Development for Beginners from scratch teach Full-Stack JavaScript (React/Redux, Node, Express, MongoDB) and scoffs at PHP and jQuery.

    PHP is usually listed simply as an alternate language to Node.js that is interchangeable (as is Java/Python/C#).

    Assuming I wanted to work for newer, trendy tech companies in 2018 and beyond (whether startup or large companies) working on brand new web apps with no technical debt or legacy code, is knowing Full-Stack JS and knowing it well sufficient for most high-paying jobs?

    I want to spend my time learning GraphQL, Kotlin, and React Native, not having to learn Laravel, Wordpress, MySQL, etc. if I don't have to, if that makes sense. If I do somehow get into Facebook, I will learn PHP if and when I have to.

    What is the best course of action?
