    Google to stop supporting public URL submissions to its search index

    I understand that your portfolio page should flex webdev/design skills you've learned, but am I alone in disliking the trend of over-the-top, particle.js, 'explore what I've done & needlessly click to see the next item', buzzword-filled pages?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:16 PM PDT

    There's nothing inherently wrong with these things, but I personally just sort of groan every time I pull up a personal webpage and it just looks like they're competing in a contest to make their webpage look as generic and overcompensating as possible.

    A restaurant webpage should have the hours, menu, and contact. Just like a portfolio page should be focused on what you've done/who you are.

    Does anyone feel like Discord/Slack are wasting a lot of help and advice?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 05:14 AM PDT

    There are so many amazing pieces of information and advice floating around on Discord and Slack, but once the question is answered it just disappears in a sea of text chat. I wish there was a way we can archive these great answers for searchability in the future. What do you guys think about this?

    How long did it take you to become confident in your knowledge of HTML? CSS? Javascript? Etc...?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 07:34 AM PDT

    So, how long did it take you to feel confident in your abilities? To not need to reference tutorials constantly? To think you're ready for a job?

    EDIT: Thanks for the input everyone! Some here think I'm saying that you eventually get to the point where you'll never need to Google for info, and I definitely didn't intend that. I currently work as a service technician and Google is my best buddy! Just feel like there's a lot to learn just to get webdev basics down, so at the moment I feel very overwhelmed. Some of the responses here have eased that a bit! Thanks again!

    I'm in Dubai looking for a frontend dev job, I admit I was wrong when I had skill ratings in my portfolio/resume

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 06:37 AM PDT

    So I've shared my resume here before, and I shared it with some of my teachers, got a lot of feedback on my skill rating next to every programming language/skill, changed it from percentage to 3 level rating, when I'm asked in the interview about anything that I didn't give myself 3 in, they talk like I have no idea how that works, one interview I had they needed someone to do some simple data entry through MySQL as part of the job, they told me that I have one out of three in MySQL and that's a main part of the job and they need someone who's better in MySQL, as you can see I no longer have ratings, you should remove it too.

    Out of curiosity, what the hell is up with the html for netflix?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 01:12 PM PDT

    Sorry in advance if this isn't the right place to be making this post, I figured maybe this sub might have some answers. Occasionally, just to get an idea of web development, I'll look at the source code for websites that I visit. I visited the source code for a couple of streaming websites and all in all it made sense, all though it was rather long. But I recently took a look at the netlix video player, and it was completely alien to me. There's no src for the video, barely any html and a veritable shitload of java. Does anyone know how it works and why it's so different to other video hosting sites?

    [Help] Updates a site to HTTPS and now the Nav CSS is messed up

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:26 PM PDT

    The site is Here.

    I updated this WordPress site from HTTP to HTTPS and it seems to have thrown off the Nav CSS. It was operating 100% nice before the update. (i just added a few minutes to the bottom of the .htaccess file as the documention said).

    I'm not the best with frontend work and was hoping for a little help as I've had no luck on my own. I didn't build the site originally and keep coming back to being somekind of float issue but can't pinpoint the issue.

    Thans in advance for any direction you can point me in.

    PHP on "/login"

    <?php if(isset($_POST['username']) and isset($_POST['password'])) { try { $connection = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=homework', 'REDACTED', 'REDACTED'); $connection->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); } catch(PDOException $e) { echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage(); } $data = $_POST['username']; $data = trim($data); $data = stripslashes($data); $data = htmlspecialchars($data); $name = $data; $data = $_POST['password']; $data = trim($data); $data = stripslashes($data); $data = htmlspecialchars($data); $class = $data; $result = $connection->prepare("select * from users where username='" . $username . "' and password='" . $password . "';"); $result->execute(); $connection->connection = null; } ?> <head> <meta http-equiv="refresh"content="10; url=/"> </head>

    Why do I get an error?

    Where to use flexbox and grid?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 05:04 AM PDT

    I use both of them in different circumstances but I am confused about where should I use what?

    Is Grid for laying out main page elements and flex for smaller components in grid elements?

    What are some advantages of IIS? More details inside...

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 03:25 PM PDT

    I've recently just been hired for my first job as a software engineer/web developer. I had been studying all of the modern webdev stuff like react/node/flask, etc... but the job I landed uses IIS, ASP, etc... for a company's intranet site. I know I'm using some ancient technologies, but can someone tell me if there are any advantages of IIS over using a linux based web server? Out of curiosity, is it possible/easy to use express and flask with IIS?

    Why do you even mention SQL? Confused by the job listings!

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:36 PM PDT

    So, look, I code in Python and I use Django, for example.

    I hook up a MySQL, Postgres, SQLite, whatever.

    I'll still use model fields to describe the data.

    As for writing the SQL query (if I ever need to do that), the syntax is mostly the same for any kind of database.

    So, why?

    Why does a ton of programmers list Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, MyFavouriteRelationalDatabase in their profiles and CVs? Why does someone look for a Laravel programmer that has experience working with *X* Database?

    Does anyone think that the knowledge of how to set up a particular database to working with your project (that can be acquired in anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour, maybe like a day if you're really unlucky) or a knowledge that sometimes CharField has a 255 characters limit and sometimes it doesn't depending on the database, worth anything?

    I would understand saying something like, 'experienced in working with SQL and no-SQL DBs', but no, instead they list the whole list of alternatives. Doesn't it resemble something along the lines of, 'I code with Notepad++, Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, and Atom'?

    Am I missing something, do you need some certain deep knowledge to work with a *certain* database?

    Applying for jobs question

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:20 PM PDT

    I have maybe ~1 year max in front end development and less in back end. Should I still apply for jobs that are asking for 2 - 3 years + experience?

    After applying for company A, B, C and still see their job postings weeks and months after, how long before I apply again?

    [HELP] PHP Hashing and salting (and form security)

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:14 PM PDT

    I understand that security is very important, and that's why I want to make this right and not try something stupid that I made up. I have a password coming from a form with this:

    $data = $_POST['password']; $data = trim($data); $data = stripslashes($data); $data = htmlspecialchars($data); $class = $data;

    First off, is that secure enough?

    Secondly, I want to hash and salt the passwords and store them in a database. What is the best way to do this? The site will be quite low traffic, so performance won't be an issue.

    Anyone do coding tutoring?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 08:09 AM PDT

    Hey everyone. I'm looking to earn some more income and getting a job is a thumbs down.

    I know how to code and I know there's a large demand for learning coding so I am thinking of tutoring adults and teaching them the basics of coding like html, css, javascript.

    Does anyone else do this? I am wondering what I should charge and what its like to do this. English tutors can probably make up to $20+ an hour, so I think teaching coding is more valuable than that?

    Fastest/most efficient way to compile sass?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 02:00 PM PDT

    I've always used Compass to compile my SASS files into one CSS file, I'm currently working on a site that's got thousands of lines of SASS, whenever i save my SASS file it takes up to 20 seconds to compile the CSS file which is very long. Are there any faster alternatives than compass to compile my SASS files?

    Recently the question of whether browsers should have a View Source function has reared its head again. Chris Coyier says no, as do Tom Dale and Christian Heilmann. Jonathan Snook says yes they should.

    What programming language shall I build my site in?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 01:30 PM PDT

    Total newbie to websites(ish). I want to create an ecommerce store with a complex pricing structure (it's made to measure blinds with a number of variables) and I have been quoted by developers using a number of programming languages...however I'm confused about what one is right!

    Are there any web devs who can provide some advice (happy to share more info of what I want)?

    Any advice would be very welcome!

    How many rejections did you receive before your first job?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 01:28 PM PDT

    I just found out that a front end position i interviewed for this past week will not be moving forward with my application. This is the 3rd in person interview I have had in about the last 5 weeks. I also have one phone interview when I did not move forward from there. So that totals four in the last few weeks. Now, I do have another in person interview tomorrow at another company, as well as a phone interview later during the day, but my confidence is shaken.

    I know i am still relatively new to the web dev world and that im not going to get everything the first time, even jobs. I keep getting feedback that I have a great attitude and show a lot of promise, but the company just wanted someone with a little more experience. I get that. I try not to emotionally attach myself to a company, but sometimes the rejections hurt a little more then they prob should. Did any one deal with a lot of rejection before they got their first dev job? What do you think finally helped you land it.

    Would you be able to make complex apps without frameworks?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2018 01:12 PM PDT

    I don't think I would. I use Laravel at work, and if I had to use php with Laravel/Eloquent I'd struggle immensely. I have no issue admitting that. I'm not a good enough developer to build applications without frameworks, and I don't think I'd enjoy not using frameworks.
