    This subreddit is greatly slanted toward *frontend* webdev - is there another sub for *webdev*?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 10:10 AM PST

    Is there a sub for scalable backend design, databases, load balancers, container deployment, distributed systems, monitoring, etc.? It seems like this sub is only for discussion about react, vue, angular, etc...

    Getting a Associates for Web Development?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:29 PM PST

    Hey guys. I am 24 years old. I am looking into becoming a web developer. I work full time and I do not have a degree but have some college credits. I was thinking about going back to community college and getting an Associates in Web Development. I think it would take me 1 year to get it. Would that help and is it worth it?

    I really want to start freelancing, but I am scared.

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 04:32 PM PST

    Currently I am working as a full time web developer in a design company. Most of my work is building WordPress sites. I have about 2.5 years experience.

    With my husband traveling every two weeks for four days, a 7 year old son, and a dog. I start to feel a little depressed. I am feeling like a robot trying to finish my to-do list every day.

    Besides the tight schedule, I also hate having to put my son in several full day summer camps all summer. It's also hard to find time visit my mom who lives in China.

    It's not like my family needs my salary to pay bills. We will do fine without my salary. We just won't be able to save much.

    If you were me, will you choose freelancing? Do I have reasons to stick to the full time job?

    Alternative advertising networks?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:18 PM PST

    I run a mid-sized online community that receives about two million pageviews a month. Right now I am generating revenue with ads served through Google Ads, in addition to some banners that I am renting to a company directly.

    Lately I have been getting contacted every few days by some sort of "monetization company" that wants to talk to me about working with them instead of Google Ads. Just going through my inbox, these include:

    • Sortable
    • ads.plus
    • Nitropay
    • ZAM
    • Venatus media
    • Playwire media
    • etc etc

    So far I have just been ignoring them. But maybe I shouldn't?

    Does anybody have experience with any of these or with similar companies? Are they legit? Do they really provide some added value over Google?

    What do you think about this bachelor program?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:16 PM PST

    Hey,

    I'm currently looking for a good bachelor program and so far the only one that has managed to catch my eye was this one. "New Media Design" in Sweden, it offers a very broad spectrum of front-end, design, marketing and managment courses. I thought it would be a good fit for me because I still don't know if I want to commit to front-end or graphic design or even marketing. Would you consider this a well rounded program for the industry as a whole or should I just pick a more 'serious' program and commit fully to something I might not like doing in the future?

    From what I've been reading online the coding that happens is mainly html, css, js, php, jquery and it is balanced out by graphic design with some filler courses in marketing and management.

    Also, how improbable would it be for me to find a job as a developer/graphic designer in the industry of a non-english speaking country as a forigner, who only speaks english...

    Thanks for the attention!

    Bootcamp grad on the job hunt, need advice

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:13 PM PST

    Recently graduated from Galvanize Phoenix's Web Dev Immersive program. The entire program is mainly centered around full stack Javascript. That being said, I'm mainly comfortable with React/Redux/Vue/VueX on front end and Node/Knex/Express for backend.
    Looking at job posting for a few months now, it seems that Java and C# are in demand mostly, as far as entry level jobs go.

    My main question for this post is: is it worth is for me in my spare time(I have tons of it right now) to be learning the basics of Java or C# in order to get a job focused on either, or continue expanding my knowledge in Javascript? Experienced devs: what have you seen is most in demand for the industry, especially for juniors/entry level jobs?

    Including self-teaching as a resume item

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:16 PM PST

    I know this might seem silly, but as a completely self-taught developer with no professional experience and a non-CS degree, would it be appropriate to include something to this effect?

    Self-Teaching Developer— programming enthusiast

    FEB 2018 - PRESENT

    Dedicated and rigorous adherence to self-structured curriculum, beginning in the front-end and diving deep into the back-end, for upwards of 5-8 hours a day, 7 days a week

    For the past 8+ months, I've literally been eat, sleep, breathing web development. I'm currently working for a local bootcamp as a teaching assistant (more of an apprenticeship type of thing as I'm not getting paid -- the pay is more in the form of the benefits I'll receive from the program and the fact I'm paying $0 to have write access to the curriculum -- in a 9-5 setting. I just started it a couple weeks ago and I've found that helping people learn how to program is pretty awesome, and really helps to solidify concepts (i.e. scopes, closures, hoisting etc).

    I'm revamping my resume for the 4th or 5th time since I've gotten into development and I'm just wondering what other more experienced devs would think about including this as experience. I know that my story isn't unique, I'm just trying to set myself up for success as best I can. Any advice appreciated!

    Should I learn Kubernetes? (is it worth it?)

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 05:04 PM PST

    I'm mostly a Full stack developer and I'm looking into learning kubernetes for a new project, but I'm not quite sure if this is something worth it given the type of project, the project is mostly a Car Dealership Webapp where the user enter to find used-cars, the expected traffic is around 100,000 users per month, that's around 140 users per hour, this kind of traffic can be easily manage by any low-mid end server on Digital Ocean.

    Is this a project that is worth to be on Kubernetes? if not, what type of project is the correct one?

    Mostly the language I use is PHP (Laravel) or .Net Core, I just had a quick look on Kubernetes and it appears that it's better to have it on a Node.js environment, I'm pretty proficient on Javascript so I don't think that it would be hard to learn Node.js but the doubt that I have is if it's worth it against learning something else?

    Thanks!

    Why React over Angular (or Vue)?

    Posted: 06 Nov 2018 05:09 PM PST

    I simply don't get it, I had been using Angular and Vue for while and I just tried React and I don't get why would I choose React over the other options, the things that I like on Angular (or Vue) are:

    - Dependency Injection (in case it applies)

    - Type checking (in case it applies)

    - View Model Binding

    On React I don't get those things by "default" it always feel like I'm hacking the library if I want to have some of the above.

    This leaves me with the question: Why choose React over the other ones?

    I know that there's all the dependencies overhead (hell) of the frameworks but I think that I'm just too used to that problems that is easy for me to solve them or maybe I haven't found the real big problems on Angular or Vue, maybe I'm just too used to the later frameworks and I'm unconsciously not seeing the benefits of React. I just want to know if I'm following the right path by learning React.

    Thanks!

    How do you handle date strings when dealing with HTTP responses?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:08 PM PST

    When receiving data back from an HTTP request, javascript seems to disregard that my variable declaration is of type date.
    The string '2018-11-06T11:00:00Z' is simply assigned to this variable as a string, not a date object.

    The only way I've found to get around this is to do something like

    myObj.myDate = moment(myObj.myDate).toDate(); 

    before I use it. But I forget this all the time and it drives me mad!

    How do you guys handle this?

    Custom tweet block - is this even possible? Twitter embed API questions.

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:57 PM PST

    On a website I designed, I have included a custom latest tweet embed block (pictured) https://puu.sh/BY3T9/efc6e252be.png.

    I've been attempting to develop this thing for probably a couple of hours at this point (including searching, reading the API docs, trial and error, etc). I'm feeling pretty defeated at this point and could use any help available.

    I would like to know a couple things:

    1. Does it violate twitter policy to style it in this manner
    2. and is it possible to extract just the following bits of info for use:
    • The written content of the tweet
    • The url of the tweet
    • The image attachment url if applicable
    • The date of the tweet

    If 1) no and 2) yes, is there any documentation on this kind of thing? I'm not seeing anything on the official dev api.

    Thank you!

    Web Server: Apache or Nginx?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 07:13 AM PST

    Good day,

    The server side of things really isn't my forte, so I was curious as to which web server options you all use and why you use them. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?

    I need a starting point

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 07:02 AM PST

    Graduated recently with a BsC in computer systems and literally the only thing that caught my interest is web development/design. I can manage HTML and CSS, PHP and some mild JavaScript here and there, but now I found out that there's people who actually design websites on Photoshop so I feel like Photoshop is something I definitely need to master and making a proper portfolio if I'm serious about this. Am I on the right track or am I just confused. Any help is appreciated as I've wasted too much time being unproductive already.

    They're looking for a platform (shopify alternatives, silly to have 1 item storefront) to handle the account / storefront / subscription plan(s)

    Why do I need to both install bootstrap /and/ link their stylesheet?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 01:33 PM PST

    Obviously I'm a beginner

    How does installing bootstrap locally benefit me? If it's installed on my backend, why do I need to link to their stylesheet hosted elsewhere?

    (slowly) converting a legacy, winforms screen into a web app

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 01:22 PM PST

    Hello all,

    There are a number of winform screens at my work that would really benefit the business if they were available online. They're your fairly standard enterprise, legacy, code-behind applications. I can't be certain, but I think they were written by a former assembly programmer on while he was tripping on mushrooms.

    It's not in the interests of the business for me to drop everything and re-write them, but I can steal a few hours here and there during the week, so it will have to be a gradual process. Here's my idea, but if anyone has any pointers let me know.

    1. Extract all the business logic into its own class/set of classes in a folder.
    2. Give all the business logic a very web API like interface. get this, post that... even though it's a regular part of the application.
    3. Write the backend server around that API, and have the win forms call it.
    4. Write the front end code to call the same API
    5. ???
    6. Profit

    How to implement custom conditional criteria queries?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2018 09:20 AM PST

    Hey,

    This is a Symfony4 project with a MySQL backend. In my project I have two entities, one of which we'll call "Boxes" and another we'll call "Items". The "Boxes" are very straight-forward - just a name. The "Items" have a bunch of data on them, things like "Width", "Height", "Weight", "Age", "Colour", etc.

    The idea is that a user can create a new box and then set criteria for which items go inside of it (conceptually, not literally). As an example, for "Box A" I'd like to include all "Items" that have a "Width" between 100 to 200 AND have the "Colour" of "Red". For "Box B" I'd like to include all "Items" that have a "Weight" above 500 AND the "Colour" is NOT "Red". For "Box C" I'd like all "Items" where the "Colour" is "Red" OR "Blue".

    You get the idea... it's just a criteria using ANDs, ORs, etc.

    I know I can have a ManyToMany relationship between "Box" and "Item" but that's not what I want. Users will build this criteria via a JS interface which I'm happy to build, and I know that this will ultimately be translated into an SQL query to pull the relevant "Items" for a particular "Box" however...

    What's the best approach for this? How should I store the criteria? I definitely don't want to expose my users to SQL, but is there perhaps a higher level SQL-like language that my users could write (and my JS UI could build) that'll later get converted into actual SQL queries? If there's no such language, how do you suggest I store these conditional criteria?

    Thanks in advance!
