    [Showoff Saturday] Secret Santa Generator (with links)

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 08:31 AM PDT

    hello this is my first post, please be gentle.

    In the process of learning React, I created a secret santa generator without email/signup. I used create-react-app, SASS, and crypto-js.

    Link: https://linksecretsanta.netlify.com/

    Github: https://github.com/kristelfung/secret-santa

    After you click generate, send the link to the corresponding person to open. They'll receive their secret santa assignment there!

    Someone asked me to make a site for them and I don't know how the fuck I'm supposed to go about it.

    Posted: 19 Oct 2018 06:29 PM PDT

    Context: I'm in school and I started as a hobby. A neighbour asked me to make a site for their business. I can make a Wordpress site for it I guess but I don't know what even to do first:

    • Send a link to buy hosting like this I guess? I don't know Is that gonna be a huge workload for me because I don't wanna do maintenance.

    • How do I get them to buy domains and how do I set up e-mail (G suite I guess because it'd be way too much/unnecessary to do it myself but how do I even do that and get them to buy it)?

    • Contracts?

    I'm kinda panicking because someone heard I was learning web dev and now he somehow thinks I'm an expert and he offered a pretty good amount of money for it and I don't wanna say no but I'm scared I'll mess it up so I feel like I should say no and wait till I learn more. Sorry if this sounds really stupid I don't really know what to do.

    Git remote: Invalid username or password with Cloud9

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 01:35 PM PDT

    I have to use Cloud9 for a school project, and I want to be able to push to my remote. I cloned a repository, made test changes and pushed to origin master. It asks me for my username and password. I enter both correctly, but get:

    remote: Invalid username or password

    fatal: Authentication failed for ''r/https://github.com/my_username/test-repo.git/''

    I do have two factor authentication on, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I can generate a public access token, which works, but I don't want to have to enter my username and that token / generate another every time I want to push. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Which would be the better option for a website?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 01:22 PM PDT

    Example: I own a mechanic's shop. I want to make a website so I can update my customers (instead of calling them via cellphone). When the customer's car comes in I can change the car's status to arrived. If I am waiting in a car part I can change the car's status to "waiting on part". The customer would sign in into my website and would be able to see the status of all their cars.

    Do services like squarespace and wordpress offer the ability to do this? I know how to make basic websites (without login), but dont want to make this by writing my own code. Since I am a beginner and afraid that I would leave the company's server vulnerable.

    Laggy interactive SVGs in React

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 03:11 PM PDT

    I am attempting to create an interactive building map using SVG and React for a web app that updates React State when different parts of the map are clicked. However, the State update is laggy and takes a moment to update after clicking the SVG. The SVG when exported from Sketch and after some optimization from SVGO is ~1MB (prior to optimizing it is ~20k lines and 2MB). My belief is this lag in updating State results from the complex SVG. My method and code are below, but I am hoping someone can suggest a better way to make complex interactive SVGs for React where State can be updated without any lag when a user clicks on the SVG.

     

    I created a complex SVG in Sketch. This SVG is a blueprint-like map of a building that consists of ~20 rooms and rows of labeled chairs in each room (each row of chairs is labeled with a letter). I have labeled each room and row of chairs in Sketch, and grouped the chair rows under each room. The SVG should allow for the following and an example of the SVG code is below:

     

    • When a user hovers over a row of chairs in any room, that row of chairs should change color --> I achieved this using CSS by adding a className="chairrow" to each grouped chair row in the SVG and this seems to work well
    • When a user clicks a row of chairs within any room React should update its State for the name of the room and the name of the row of chairs clicked. The State consists of "roomname" and "chairrowname" --> I use a simple handleClick(e) function to pull out the id of chair row clicked and the id of the room where the chair row is located and then update the State. As mentioned above, this State update is laggy and takes a second or two to update after clicking on a row.

     

    SVG code below:

    <g id="Green-Room-1" transform="translate(170.000000, 616.000000)"> <g className="chairrow" onClick={this.handleClick} id="A" transform="translate(11.000000, 0.000000)"> <g id="Chair1"> <g id="Rectangle"> ... </g> <g id="Chair2"> <g id="Rectangle"> ... </g> ... 

     

    Thanks in advance!

    How to develop for clients using site builders?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 03:00 PM PDT

    I just got hired for web dev/design through Thumbtack. The site assumes you use site builders, and the client says I can choose whatever builder I feel is best.

    So I called them and went over the basics of what they want and what the purpose of the site is and all, and we are to meet in person on Monday.

    So once I determine which builder is best, then what? Who's email and all am I using to sign up for SquareSpace/Wix/Weebly/etc?

    Am I just using their email and setting a password we both know? How is this supposed to work? This is my first professional/semi professional gig related to my college degree so I'm trying to figure out how to proceed and all on the fly.

    Also, if you all have any suggestions on what site builder to use, let me know. She's a beautician looking to have customers set up appointments and pre-pay online. I am out with my girlfriend for the evening so I haven't had much of a chance to research nor will I until later tonight. Just figured I'd also post on here so that by the time I get home I have a better idea and all.

    I appreciate any help. Thanks guys!

    (X-post r/wordpress) HELP: Footer not staying down

    Hello Devs,

    I have been stuck on this certain WP problem for a while, I have tried to embed custom HTML code onto a client's site, the issue is that the HTML is over flowing beyond the footer. I tried making the footer stick to the bottom using the custom CSS in the theme but no difference. The theme is some weirdly customized thing.

    This is what it looks like

    Greatly appreciate any ideas.

    [Help] Workflow to develop a webapp from start with Docker.

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 12:43 PM PDT

    I want to develop a webapp with angular, php api with laravel, a node chat, mysql and nginx. I have followed this tutorial https://training.play-with-docker.com.

    So I have this project:

    . ├── README.md ├── api (Laravel API) │ └── Dockerfile ├── chat (Node chat) │ ├── src │ └── package.json ├── docker-compose.yml └── www └── app (Angular app) └── index.html 

    And this is what I want to install on each image because I want nothing installed on the host machine.

    • Laravel API:
      • php
      • composer
      • laravel framework
    • Node chat
      • npm
      • node

    This is my workflow idea:

    Let's say I am developing the laravel API.

    I run a laravel API container and access its shell:

    docker container run --interactive --tty laravel-api bash (I dont know if this is correct if I use the official php image) cd api laravel new src 

    So I would have this structure inside laravel API folder.

    I would map the src folder inside laravel API folder to another one inside the container to update my code.

    . ├── README.md ├── api (Laravel API) │ ├── Dockerfile │ └── src │ ├── app │ ├── artisan │ ├── bootstrap │ ├── composer.json │ ├── composer.lock │ ├── config │ ├── database │ ├── package.json │ ├── phpunit.xml │ ├── public │ ├── resources │ ├── routes │ ├── server.php │ ├── storage │ ├── tests │ ├── vendor │ ├── webpack.mix.js │ └── yarn-error.log ├── chat (Node chat) │ ├── src │ └── package.json ├── docker-compose.yml └── www └── app (Angular app) └── index.html 

    And I would do the same for Node chat folder. This way I have nothing installed on the host and can upload my code to git.

    Is it real world workflow development? If not, is It possible? Do you have some github example?

    I haven't found a full tutorial.

    Modern module bundlers besides webpack & rollup

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 12:21 PM PDT

    I'm looking for examples of modern module bundlers like FuseBox (https://fuse-box.org/) that compete with webpack and rollup. Have you come across work that a developer is doing that isn't getting a lot of marketing/attention?

    Thanks in advance!

    How to take my project from my computer and make it available online?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2018 12:07 PM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    So I started learning web development on my own about 1 month ago. I worked on small projects to get the gears rolling and have finished my latest project that I was planning on going live with. It's my own personal portfolio website. I was wondering if there are any good tutorials out there for learning how to do this. I understand that I need to learn git command and repos and putting my work on github. But beyond that, what else must I do to make my website accessible by anyone online? Is there a clear and simple guide for this because I see dozens of different ways to go about it online and it is confusing.

    TL;DR:

    How do I take my HTML, CSS, Javascript project that I have saved offline and put it online for everyone to go to?
