    How does one get good with writing tests?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 11:05 AM PDT

    I'm trying to get work as a developer but I think one big thing I need to work on is writing tests. I understand tests, but I've almost never written my own. I've started to go back to some personal projects and I find myself struggling to know whether I'm actually doing them well. Are their any resources or advice you'd recommend on test writing?

    All you need to know about the Web Audio API

    I was not feeling confident about CSS grids (I posted about it in morning). So, I made a Datepicker using CSS grids.

    Any suggestion for improvement is deeply appreciated.

    Does "Senior [whatever]" imply leading responsibilities or merely "you're an expert at [whatever]"?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 03:00 PM PDT

    Like "Senior Front End Developer" or "Senior Web Designer".

    I'm asking because I'm an expert of a bunch of things, but neither do I have experience leading people, nor do I want to have that responsibility, so I don't know if I qualify for that label.

    If no leading responsibilities are implied, where's the line between a Web Developer and a Senior Web Developer? Does age matter?

    Zero experience direct to freelancing, is it doable?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 08:41 AM PDT

    I work in real estate. Right now I've got benefits and a livable salary on a part-time schedule. So I've got an extra 20-30 hours or so a week during which I mostly play video games while everyone else is at work. I'd like to do something more productive with that time.

    I'd like to jump into freelance web development. Anyone have experience going from studying straight to freelance? With my current career I can't take on a standard entry-level jobs to build up experience. Plus I hate working in offices.

    Is it doable? I'm ok taking low paying jobs until I build a portfolio. Even if all I add is 10-20k a year that would be a victory by my book.

    Full Stack clone of Google Docs?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:27 AM PDT

    Hey everyone! I'm a recent CS grad who is attending App Academy (a coding bootcamp in SF). We are approaching the point where we receive 10 days to do a clone of a website. We have an approved list involving sites like Airbnb, Slack, etc. We are also allowed to present new ideas for approval.

    I was considering doing a clone of Google Docs, but I am afraid of biting off more than I can chew in those 10 days. Would anyone be able to help modify and add to this list of "milestones" that I've created for the completion of this project?

    1. User auth that affects viewing/editing of documents
    2. Allow for storage/editing/retrieval of completely plain text documents with no formatting. (URL links to docs)
    3. Use Git or another VCS to save changes between document state
    4. Make features/interface for bolding, underlining, and other formatting.
    5. Allow multiple users to edit a document at once in real-time

    I believe this would be quite a hefty project, and I could very possibly get stuck without the ability to complete a lot. I am still interested in the challenge of this project, but it would be helpful to get some guide or advice from those who have more experience.

    If this project seems too widely-scoped or too difficult for 10 days, I'd love some challenging, yet doable suggestions

    [HELP] PHP login session

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:19 AM PDT

    SOLVED

    I found this answer, which seems good, but I'm uncertain what the user ID, which is stored in the session, is. It seems unsafe to have an ID which is used to identify a user everywhere. A malicious extension (or someone with access to the computer) could easily steal the ID and log in as that user. What should I use as the user ID and how should I store it? I thought about an ID generated for every login and later destroyed, but that seems overly complicated.

    Allow Client To Add Images To Gallery

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 04:32 AM PDT

    so i got my static website (Apart from some node.js for sending emails) finished , but i want to make it so the client can add images at any time without him needing to change the code himself, not sure where to start, can i do this with node,js? My guess is i would need a login page to allow him in, which when accessed with the right password would add additonal buttons for adding images and such

    Edit: only one user needs the ability to add images if that changes much

    Putting bootcamp on linkedin / resume if i didn't finish?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 03:47 PM PDT

    I have been applying to jobs over the last couple months and have been getting interviews. While I am about 0/3 on in person interviews with one more coming up this thursday, I am hoping that I can land my first dev job soon. I was in a coding bootcamp earlier in the spring, did about 70% of it, but due to unfortunate circumstances was not able to finish the bootcamp. I felt I had a good base and somewhat of a portfolio which i could expand upon on my own, and I have been doing just that. I also decided that I needed to go back to work, and I don't think i could just dive into a new cohort more then half way through. I don't have it listed anywhere on my resume or linkedin, but I am wondering if you feel it is appropriate to list it as education even though it was not completed. I can see both sides as to why u could and couldnt. I am hoping that if employers see that I was dedicated enough to go to a bootcamp, they may look more favourably on me? I know people's opinions of bootcamps vary, so try to view it just from my, and an employers perspective.
    TL;DR Went to a bootcamp, completed about 70% couldn't finish due to personal reasons, should i leave it off resume and linkedin? Try to keep personal opinions about bootcamps aside

    Should I take this "internship" position?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 08:10 AM PDT

    To get right to the point, I'm a self-teaching front-end developer of about 6 months and I've recently been getting into node.js (which is awesome). Over this time period, I've applied here and there to various internships and some entry-level positions in my area, but only heard back from a couple that weren't the right fit. Last week, a company that I had applied to weeks before (and had honestly forgotten about) invited me to interview with them for a "Javascript Intern" position, which I was super excited about. The more I learned about the company during our interview, the more I learned that is was still more of an idea than a company. They currently don't have any developers working for them, and they aren't generating any revenue. The business model is essentially using Amazon's Dash Replenishment Service (DRS) and Amazon Web Services to develop smart home devices. (There is a "hardware" engineer on the team as well)

    The current plan, as instructed to me by the CEO/interviewer: "Over the next 3-4 weeks, we will be working aggressively to complete a functional proof of concept. As discussed during our call, the proof of concept we are developing is a [smart home device] that will keep track of [consumer usage] and automatically reorder more [of the product] once stock levels reach a threshold set by the user."

    They mentioned potentially bringing on other interns, which I emphasized would be ideal, seeing as I would prefer to be in a collaborative environment for the purposes of an internship, but also because I literally wouldn't even know where to start with something like this. Without even knowing my specific background (which I know would be a crucial factor), is this even realistic? When I was applying for internships, I was hoping to be able to be mentored and guided by other more experienced devs, certainly not tasked with something like this by myself with no other developers' assistance.

    I'm extremely excited about development, and I'd jump at any opportunity to be able to learn and gain experience, but I also want to be realistic and not set myself up for failure. Are there any more experienced devs that have had any experience using Amazon's DRS or developing any types of smart home devices?

    I've notified the company that I'd like to take some time to look into the associated technologies to try and gauge what will be required before signing a Non-disclosure agreement and accepting the position, which the CEO understood. He has been very transparent with me and hasn't made any far-fetched promises, which I appreciate, I'm just kind of stuck at the moment.

    EDIT: [Realized I probably shouldn't just throw his idea out there]

    [Question] Building our portfolio effectively?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 03:05 PM PDT

    I'm 19, been a JavaScript developer professionally since I was 17 working at the company I am currently at. I want to switch jobs, but don't really have projects to show for my work. I'm currently a CE student, and I'm just trying to build up my front end skills. I have probably 4 current projects I'm working on. Some relevant to my current job that could get me a raise / recognition. Others are just to show my understanding of the tools I think future employers would want to see. What's the best way to just focus on one project, and complete it? I know the vicious cycle of ideas => half finished projects is in each of us. Any insight would really be great, thanks!

    Any way to get *free* domain name and hosting?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 02:48 PM PDT

    The name itself could be completely gibberish, but I'd like a real "playground" where I can improve my coding skills!

    EDIT: I've followed your combination of advice and got a free .tk domain and used 000webhost to host it. Everything should go smoothly, but 000webhost is having some internal issues at the moment. Either way, thank you all!

    Starting web development

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 04:53 AM PDT

    I just started learning web development, right now I want to get comfortable with python and flask, also I'm reading some books about network protocols like HTTP, TCP, UDP etc. I'm not strictly orientated on python, also have JavaScript(node.js, express), Java(Spring) on my mind. My kind of end goal in whole this learning process is to make a multiplayer game. The concept of the game is same as the Steam game Tricky Towers but just in a web client and with not so good graphics, players are stacking blocks and the first one that builds a tower of certain size wins. I kinda wanna build this game from top to bottom. It doesn't have to be in flask. I would love to hear your opinion about this, and maybe you can recommend me some technologies I should consider learning? :)

    Text That is in Website Description on Google is not visible on the Webpage When Clicked

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 02:26 PM PDT

    I'm not sure this is the right place for this question. I'm neither a web developer nor do I have enough experience in the field to know all the correct terms and their specific uses, so please excuse me if I make any mistakes. That said, here goes:

    I made a search for a specific research paper on google the other day. One of the results showed relevant text in the page description under the page title, but when I clicked on the link, it took me to a page with just a calendar on it and that page had none of the text that was in the page description on it.

    What causes this? Is the text hidden on the page? Is this a result of SEO? I'm honestly just curious as to how it could happen, and quick google searches yield me no results. I'm sure it's probably a simple thing in the webdev world, and I was wondering if anyone could shoot me a quick answer. If so, I appreciate it greatly.

    Gallery for wedding photos

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 12:54 PM PDT

    Hey!

    I am starting with a website for a wedding photographer.

    He wanted to create galleries with taken photos, then password protect those galleries and then share it with people, who may wanna buy those photos.

    There may be a online payment system added later too, that is not sure yet but any info on that would be great too.

    Any suggestions what may make my assignment easier? Should I use a CMS or build it from ground up?

    Thanks in advance!!!

    Good News for TheNetNinja followers a new R+R course

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 03:29 AM PDT

    The Net Ninja has started an amazing React Redux course now, I love his content and his teaching style is awesome, another YouTube channel Academind ( Maximilian Schwarzmuller ) also provides in depth understanding of topics.

    PS I'm not paid to promote their content but their tutorials help me land at my jobs and projects so I just want other learners to get benefits if they haven't yet found these.

    Please share all other YouTube/Udemy/Udacity channels and content creators that you guys follow, and also please share the bunch of people that you guys follow on Twitter, Twitter is so much helpful in this regard.

    Good methods for practicing ES for React and important related datastructures?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 11:10 AM PDT

    I've been slowly learning react while trying to get some websites out and I'm pretty bad at it honestly but hey, I'm trying to manifest SOMETHING even if I'm just hacking, swapping some components around and trying to add some kind of interactivity here and there, getting stuck on css for long periods of time. I'm just wondering though, anyone care to suggest resources I can use to practice using ES2016+ features with React? Anywhere I can do some exercises on stuff a little easier like using rest and spread to stuff that I find requires a little more thinking like passing objects to props in a way that's actually useful and async functions. Also if there is any really useful guide to ES2017 & ES2018, I'm curious what I might be missing since most of what I'm learning is back from ES2016.

    Looking for a good way to automatically capture the DOM of a another site from my own site

    Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:43 AM PDT

    So I am making a site for a client that that is sort of a landing page for them to route user to their various projects, one of which is a streaming feed. The streaming feed however does not have any kind of API for me to call on to tell when my client is streaming. So my solution around this is to take a snapshot of the DOM and parse it to look for a piece of text that says "Im offline", which appears on the page when my client is not streaming.

    What I dont know though, is if this is even possible with cross domain. Ive seen something on stack overflow back in 2012 about using something called YQL, but Im not even sure if thats a good option anymore. Does anyone else know how I can emulate an HttpWebRequest cross domain?
