    [Showoff Saturday] Portfolio website - would love some feedback

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 10:47 AM PST

    Hi everyone! This is my first portfolio, and I would like to get some feedback, what I could do to improve it and what you guys don't like.

    Portfolio:
    https://pecko95.github.io/Portfolio/

    Please note that I haven't yet finished my resume (that's why you can't download it) and also 4K resolution is something that I know I will need to work on to support it.

    I need to make portfolio but i don't know where to start, how can I think about the design as a developer?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 12:16 PM PST

    Well, I am not a designer, I can't have the imagination to design, but I can make a wireframe to a web page. But the problem is to think about good wireframe to execute. Any help?

    Javascript libraries with web assembly bindings?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 11:52 AM PST

    So im thinking about how numpy (in python) implements all its math and vector functions by calling into native bindings.
    Which allows for very high performance.

    Could you do something similar by writing javascript libraries that act as bindings to RUST (wasm) functions.

    For example, say you took something like Lodash::_.map() and implemented the logic highly optimized as a Rust function.
    Would you see significant performance increase, or is there are lot overhead with that kind of context switching.

    [Showoff Saturday] Taste.io clone site

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 03:52 PM PST

    I started learning React a little while back and decided to use my love of movies to create my first big React app by making a clone of the Taste.io site. I'm using Firebase as the back-end, but don't have Facebook login or email authentication setup yet, so feel free to just use a fake email name if you want to play around with the watchlist and recommendations part of the site. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Movie Site

    What to pick up after Colt Steele's Web Dev Bootcamp in 2019?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 06:55 AM PST

    Im currently finishing Colts Web Dev Bootcamp and i am interested in learning frontend frameworks like React or Vue. I was thinking of picking up Brad Traversy "Modern JS from the beginning" to learn ES6 before i pick up a framework. Is that course good?

    I know that Colt has another course, but I've heard that there are other people teaching on it and that it is not as good as the first course.

    Suggestions for budget laptops?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 03:23 PM PST

    Hey so as the title says I'm trying to devote as much time as I can to learning web dev so I'd really like to find a laptop to take with me to work because my job has a large amount of down time but I'm not in the position to drop 1000 or more for a laptop.

    I know ram and a larger ssd are priorities for web dev but does anyone have any experience or opinions on some cheaper options for a poor web dev wanna be? Really hoping to spend at the max 500...

    Dreamhost. Replacing a Domain name. How do I do this?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 08:48 AM PST

    I don't want to lost anything on the live site, I just want to replace the live domain name with a new domain name. It seems pretty intimidating to do this, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Question about Indexed DB

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 05:17 AM PST

    Say I'm writing a web application for listening to podcasts. A podcast episode might be a 100 MB AAC or MP3 file. When a user plays an episode, I'd like to offer the option to download the file and cache it on their system, so that it continues to work if they go offline, doesn't need to be redownloaded if they close their browser and come back the next day, etc.

    Is Indexed DB a valid option for storing/caching the episodes (as blobs)? I'm aware of the storage limitations at least in Firefox (up to 2 GB per origin, up to 50% of total available disk space on the drive Firefox is installed on, deleting data origin by origin least-recently-used-first when the latter limit is exceeded) and they seem to imply that lots and lots of data could be stored. But I wanted to double check with people who actually know this sort of thing, before I do something that might be really annoying and stupid.

    Where do you host images for your websites?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 09:47 AM PST

    Hey guys, newbie web developer here. From my experience and from what people have said, hosting files locally on the same server you have the website is a bad idea since they take really long to load. What sites do you guys use to host the images? Thanks!

    Am I crazy for including all my CSS in style attributes of my HTML?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 12:30 PM PST

    I know that it's typical to have a css file and to have an html file separate. In my most recent project, however, I've decided to just put all the CSS right there with the HTML, because it keeps me from having to switch from file to file while I'm editing the look of my website. I have found that by doing it this way it makes it faster to actually edit the website. If I want to edit a specific element I just look for it in the HTML, and then edit the style there.

    I'm Django's built in templating which allows me to keep the HTML itself from becoming to messy, and bootstrap which allows me to avoid writing much CSS in the first place. Any concrete reason I shouldn't be putting my CSS in the HTML in this scenario?

    I'm trying to set up a pretty simple webhook in PHP with the ACR android app and my VPS, so what am I doing wrong?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 11:32 AM PST

    I know the code is shit, but i'm just trying to set up a proof-of-concept that proves the webhook actually works as I expect it to, and at that point I will develop it properly. Right now I can get the app to connect to my domain, and I can get the ACR case statement to execute properly, but things aren't working properly serverside when I try to make it work.

    SO ACR is a phone call recording app. I make or receive any phone call and it has a webhook feature I can use to upload the audio file to my vps. It has a feature I can use to test the connection, and it succeeds. The web server is nginx and the vps is ubuntu 16.04. I was getting file_put_contents permission errors in the nginx log, so I gave the audio directory the correct permissions and it's writing to the directory, but now i'm trying to write the contents of $_POST to file, but when I try the file is empty. Also, none of the key-value pairs in the ACR case statement are working, so for some reason I have that wrong, too.

    Here is an explanation of the webhook, Here is the official repo that hosts an example backend that could receive the webhook, and here is my code:

    <?php session_start(); if (isset($_POST['action'])) { $action = $_POST['action']; } else if (isset($_GET['action'])) { $action = $_GET['action']; } else if (isset($_POST['source'])) { // only happens when ACR is POSTing a new recording. $action = $_POST['source']; } else if(isset($_GET['source'])){ $action = $_GET['source']; } switch ($action) { case 'ACR': // an ACR call is being submitted with the ACR webhook. // the recorded file $file = $_POST['file']; // original file name stored in ACR. Only posted if 'file' is also posted. $acrfilename = $_POST['acrfilename']; // password/secret key for service access. optional. // $secret = $_POST['secret']; // call start time as epoch time $date = $_POST['date']; // recording duration in milliseconds $duration = $_POST['duration']; // 0 means an incoming call, 1 means an outgoing call $direction = $_POST['direction']; // 1 if it is, 0 if it is not. Would only be a 1 if the user has Keep Recording prompt enabled and marked as important before saving the recording. $important = $_POST['important']; // Recording note. Only possible if Keep Recording prompt enabled. $note = $_POST['note']; // phone number $phone = $_POST['phone']; // contact name. $contact = $_POST['contact']; file_put_contents($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/audio/acrlog.txt', 'Content: [' . $_POST . ']'); http_response_code(200); echo 'SUCCESS'; exit; $dir = new DirectoryIterator('/audio/archive'); foreach($dir as $file ){ $x += (is_file($file)) ? 1 : 0; } if ($x >= 200) { // find oldest call recording and find its index. $oldestDate = null; //date of the oldest file. foreach($dir as $file ){ if($oldestDate === null) { $oldestDate = $file; } else { // parse date from $file and compare to the oldest date to see which is older. } // parse date from $file and } } break; default: $file = $_POST['file']; $acrfilename = $_POST['acrfilename']; $date = $_POST['date']; file_put_contents($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/audio/log.txt', "file: [$file]\nacrfilename: [$acrfilename]\ndate:[$date]\n"); http_response_code(200); exit; }

    Best practice to get into web animation? Execution vs Planning

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 10:49 AM PST

    Hello Reddit,

    Ill try to make this simple as I truly need help with this concept.

    I'm a self taught programmer with a solid-foundation of abstract-thinking, and an understanding of programming concepts. Currently I get paid 13.50 for a job that i turned from a manual processing job to a basic programming job (I manage data for reporting, make C# apps for departments, etc..)

    I understand building websites, and my plan is to make my first portfolio website in react, but I don't want this to be simple in the sense that im done in 4 days, I have a strange magnetic pull towards animations, and after doing lots of research, I see there are many libraries/tools to help do this in javascript/html/css.

    So the question is, is it best to mock up an animation in something like adobe after effects? I've heard it's possible to animate in After Effects and then export a json file that a library would be able to read but I cannot wrap my head around how functionality can be implemented within the site with a bunch of numbers mapped in a JSON file.

    Does anyone recommend a great starting point?

    Core Team AMA - Guillaume Chau - December 2018

    They say you don't really need to know algorithms to be a web developer?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2018 09:51 AM PST

    But I seem to run into them a lot building my own personal projects. I can build full-stack applications but how do I get better at solving problems? Even beginner/easy problems on hacker rank, etc are too hard for me.

    I simply don't know how to approach breaking down a problem and solving it. For example a current problem I have is displaying some data in a pie chart with chart.js.

    My data looks like this:

    const testData = [ { _id: "5c26ec6f9496031d0c8ce854", category: "Investments", note: "Stock", amount: 500, incomeOrExpense: "expense", user: "5c186cc8e8816e07b4b6a72a", date: "2018-12-29T03:39:27.895Z", __v: 0 }, { _id: "5c26ec5f9496031d0c8ce853", category: "Food & Drink", note: "Drinks", amount: 15, incomeOrExpense: "expense", user: "5c186cc8e8816e07b4b6a72a", date: "2018-12-29T03:39:11.095Z", __v: 0 }, { _id: "5c26ec5f9496031d0c8ce853", category: "Vehicle", note: "Drinks", amount: 100, incomeOrExpense: "expense", user: "5c186cc8e8816e07b4b6a72a", date: "2018-12-29T03:39:11.095Z", __v: 0 }, { _id: "5c26ec5f9496031d0c8ce853", category: "Vehicle", note: "Drinks", amount: 120, incomeOrExpense: "expense", user: "5c186cc8e8816e07b4b6a72a", date: "2018-12-29T03:39:11.095Z", __v: 0 } ]; 

    My pie chart component takes in data structured like this:

    const data = { labels: ['Category 1', 'Category 2', etc, etc, etc], datasets: [ { data: [totalDollarAmountOfCategory1, totalDollarAmountOfCategory2, etc, etc, etc], backgroundColor: [ "#FF6384", "#36A2EB", "#FFCE56", "#56ffc9", "#ffa456", "#ff5656", "#a2ff56", "#b856ff", "#2651ff" ], hoverBackgroundColor: [ "#FF6384", "#36A2EB", "#FFCE56", "#56ffc9", "#ffa456", "#ff5656", "#a2ff56", "#b856ff", "#2651ff" ] } ] }; 

    Essentially I need to have an array of categories(without duplicates) for my labels and then I need to add up the total amount of each category and make sure that amount total is in the same order as the labels.

    It seems like a simple problem but I can't wrap my brain around how to begin solving it. Don't solve it for me but how would you approach this?
