| Today is my first day on my first developer job. Posted: 30 Nov 2018 07:46 AM PST It's extremely surreal, as most job changes have been. My boss is running a little late so my computer isn't even set up yet, but I've been told it's ready to go. I have no idea what to expect; I'm nervous because I have so little experience and the experience I do have is just with front end, but I'm excited. What was your first day as a developer like for you? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Fell in love with Vue, having relationship problems with React. Posted: 30 Nov 2018 03:19 AM PST Hi, yes, and the problem is as BAD as that. I have recently decided to look up on Vue. After a very bad time with Angular I looked at React, and I was liking it. But guys... Vue is totally another story, for me. We are kind of knowing each other, but every little piece I discover, makes me melt. It seems The Framework that learned from the errors of other frameworks. I see stability, consistency, I see how much good is to solve the problems I have. The problem is that Vue is not as popular as React, and I need a job, so I need to be as much open as possible. But as I look back to React, I kind of feel less engaged then I do when I use Vue. Now with React I am kind of a middle level, I still have to learn Redux and I am not properly into it completely, and right now I don't know which path I should choose: so I ask you, do you think that by knowing Vue very well, I could still have nice chances to find a job (I am in EU), or should I stick to React and keep the other as a secret lover? The only reason I would stick to React is that it makes me a better Javascript developer. But if I think of it, my role is to solve problems, not being a Js wizard. What's your opinion?

| Posted: 30 Nov 2018 06:08 AM PST So my boss is dragging me into a call to talk with a client who is having sharepoint sold to her. I have not heard many positive things from the developer perspective and I would either like some ammunition to shoot it down from people with experience or reassurance that I wont hate my life if I don't try to shoot it down. They want to build a website off the back of it. Is there any reason you would want to do that? Edit: Thanks for your help guys, I've managed to turn my boss onto my wavelength thanks to your reasoning. I have to say from the documentation it didn't seem as terrible as I was imagining but it did look clunky as hell. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 29 Nov 2018 08:47 PM PST Currently using Craft CMS with a pretty standard stack for work, but I am starting to look into headless cms solutions for the future of my team's projects. Wondering what people are using and how they have deployments configured. Any resources you want to provide are welcome, I am glad to read. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Web development in the eyes of a newcomer Posted: 30 Nov 2018 01:10 PM PST I used to do some web dev a few years ago and decided I wanted to get back into it and try to use the things that modern web applications use nowadays. The first thing I notice is holy shit what have you guys done. I started looking at the back-end options and was like 'well this isn't that bad' and decided to go for Node JS with Pug/Jade and Express, the MVC kind of approach. Then I decide to check out how front-end has changed and boy oh boy my first experience is : what an absolute clusterfuck. Within just an hour or two I managed to get soaked in client-side libraries/frameworks/modules/extensions/whateveryounameit and of course you have to use them all or you're not a part of the cool kids. Would you like some Babel, jQuery, TypeScript, Angular, React with JSX, Vue.js, Redux? Or maybe I could interest you in some Bootstrap with a spice of Webpack? I'm used to just jQuery and that's it, but nowadays there's so much to pick from and to add to your project without even knowing if you'll need it or what the benefits are, the most annoying thing for me this on this journey has been tutorials that are like "okay now install X, we'll need it for Y." And Y requires Z and so on, and none of them tell you what they're used for, they just show you a command you have to execute to get yourself a "hello world" web application after 30 minutes of setup. Sorry if this sounds like a rant, there are just a lot of terms for someone getting back into the web development scene, especially the front-end part. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Struggling to get that first developer position Posted: 30 Nov 2018 08:27 AM PST Hi everyone, Just curious as whether everyone who is self-taught has been having as difficult a time as I have had finding employment as a dev? I'm mostly self-taught in JavaScript and PHP and I am quite familiar with some of the most popular technologies that exist on those platforms, such as Node.js, React, Vue, WordPress. I recieved an associates in Graphic Design almost 5 years ago now and have not found work outside of freelancing ever since. Getting even just an interview has been quite difficult and I am curious if it has something to do with my lack of formal education in web development and tech. I feel like the best position for me to start of course would be a junior role, however I don't know if it's just my area but I very rarely see those positions posted. I frequently message HR and dev team leads at the companies I want to work at to show my interest but most times get nothing in response. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it on this situation. I want so badly to finally start my career and as I get older I get more worried about how I might compare to other younger devs in the field. [link] [comments]  | ||
| CSS: Learning layouts driving me nuts! Best method? (position, flex, grid, etc) ? Posted: 30 Nov 2018 05:15 AM PST Hi guys, First of all, what method should I be focused on learning in 2018/2019? A lot of tutorials are using the old position method, but from what I can tell, grid layout is the future. Any advice about what I should learn and suggested resources to learn it? At the moment I am going back and forward and just getting frustrated. [link] [comments]  | ||
| PageSpeed Insights showing 700KB images in report, but live site has nothing over 120KB. Posted: 30 Nov 2018 02:55 PM PST Any idea why this might be? Would PageSpeed be subject to an A/B test or a cached version?It's showing we can optimize a specific image from 700KB down to 50KB, but live image on the site is 30KB. Any suggestions? EDIT: it was indeed an A/B test, checked the other images and realized they were pulling from a different page. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Country and State/Province API Posted: 30 Nov 2018 12:25 PM PST Does anyone know an API with every country and all their subsequent states/provinces? Especially one in multiple languages. Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Creating a forum like website for a company Posted: 30 Nov 2018 12:14 PM PST Hey r/webdev, I've come into a little situation and I'm in need of a bit of of advice. So I do webdev as a hobby on the side while I'm doing my studies where I'm studying Statistics. I've taken a good amount of webdev courses online, watched a good amount of tutorial series and I think I'm a pretty damn good web developer. I've actually created a few websites as well, I've created one for a company my uncle is a part of and it was a pretty simple food online ordering system to be used within the company (it's a big company), and a blog using WordPress for one of my friends who wanted to start their online career. So recently I got contacted by a friend to build a website for his company. Basically he wants to create a review/forum website. Where users can leave reviews on certain products, and have another section for just general posts and stuff along those lines. Later on he will probably want to add more stuff but that's to start. He knows I've done some web work before and I'm pretty comfortable with this sort of stuff so he contacted me asking if I'm up for the task. And I don't really know how to go about this. This is for a pretty big and established service/website that he already runs and this sounds like a pretty big task. I just don't know, I know I can do it and make a kick ass thing, but I'm just thinking like what if I mess up or forget something or do something dumb. I said maybe he should look at an agency but he was pretty adamant about someone he truly knows handling all of it. What do you guys think, should I do it? And if I do decide to do it, what approach should I take? I'm only comfortable with programming everything from scratch and I'm sure I can whip something up. I'm also pretty oblivious with WordPress and I feel like maybe WordPress is better suited for a task like this? Or even one of those forum websites like XenForo or whatever? Or should I just go with what I know and stick to my guns and create it from the ground up with my own stack. Thanks everyone! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 30 Nov 2018 08:18 AM PST I've been doing frontend JavaScript commercially for a good few years now, I have a decent understanding of vanilla JavaScript, ESNext, the native web API's as well as the common frameworks and tooling such as React, Vue, Webpack, Babel, TypeScript etc... I can also handle setting up basic Express servers and using template engines like Pug. What do I need to learn to call myself a fullstack JavaScript developer. These are what I've got as part of a list so far but I'm not sure how relevant all of these are:
How far off am I with this list, is there any glaringly obvious misses, things that maybe I don't need to focus on so much? Any help would be appreciated, thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Stephen Grider or Brad Traversy MERN udemy course? Posted: 30 Nov 2018 11:51 AM PST Hello everyone, For some background, I recently finished The Web Developer's Bootcamp by Colt Steele, currently I'm learning React from Andrew Mead's course and I also got his Node course. After that I want to learn how to work with all of these technologies together and best practices of a MERN stack before getting my first job. However, I couldn't find any recommendations on reddit regarding Node with react fullstack and MERN stack front to back courses. Stephen's course is 10 hours longer, so I'm guessing that it should be more in depth, but Brad's course looks useful as well. I was wondering if any of you has taken them and could give me a recommendation? Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||
| concerns about users personal info. Posted: 30 Nov 2018 11:50 AM PST This may be a stupid question, so bare with me. I know that storing things like credit card information is a risky business and should be avoided. But what if I have a messaging application on my site where I am storing conversations and one of my users tells another "hey, my credit card number is 1234...". Technically I now have the users card information in my database stored as a message. Is that something to be concerned with or should I just tell my users "dont share personal info" and assume I am not liable if they do? Thank you. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 30 Nov 2018 11:19 AM PST Hey all! I have begun to teach myself Web Development/Design through CodeAcademy. Taking their full course on the subject. I plan to become a front end developer along with bringing up my chops in web design. As well as learning Ux/Ui design. I am curious about what the future of WebDev looks like. From what I can tell, this is a safe career to get into as it will be needed for many years to come. What are your thoughts on the future of WebDev? Am I wrong to see it as a safe path? And why? What should I watch out for? Thanks for your time. [link] [comments]  | ||
