    Top earning Web Developers, what change in day-to-day and long term strategy had the biggest impact on your income and success?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 01:17 AM PDT

    I've started taking on better and better clients who know more details of what they want and are willing to pay more to get it. Except for only taking on better clients, do you have any other tips for web developers starting out? I'm thinking about day-to-day decisions (like which clients to pick and how to spend time) but also strategy (like delegating in a specific way, etc).

    What is your experience with this and what helped you the most?

    Thank you!

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 02:15 PM PDT

    Hi all ! So i am building a site that uses express for the back-end and react for the front-end that i build and serve as static files for express when in production, everything would be nice except FOR ONE FREAKING ROUTE NOT WORKING, its making me go really freaking apeshit. It doesn't make any sense:

    Here is the error:

    https://i.ibb.co/FwW6FQS/error.jpg

    Here are the routes (Register works perfectly)

    https://i.ibb.co/9vXDfqX/Routes.jpg

    Here is the production config for Express

    https://i.ibb.co/DQSVSpG/Static.jpg

    and here is the React Login component

    https://i.ibb.co/YjyfS6X/logincomponent.jpg

    ​

    When in Development everything works perfectly but in production this one specific login route breaks..why...why...WHYY

    How do you manage Client Accounts?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 11:23 AM PDT

    Ive been a hobbyist developer a few years, and am finally branching out to do pages for clients.

    I'm curious, when you are setting up a clients domain and hosting, do you host their site under your own account, and then extend cPanel permissions? Or do you set up their own account with their own login creds so they can manage payments themselves? Or something else all together?

    Why do you do it that why? What tends to be industry standard in your opinion?

    It seems that it would be easier to keep all your projects under one account. But then you would have to bill them for hosting, and be responsible for the payments.
    I'm sure there is some variance, especially based on what clients need and want, but I'm trying to get a feel for how some veterans handle this.

    Website developed by--

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 08:18 AM PDT

    I'll keep it short. How are you able to claim that you built that website for that company. How do you put that on your resume. I've been making websites for small businesses for a while now. I could ask to place a modest "website developed by" on the footer for the ones that I don't charge but what about the other ones? Or do you not do that at all?

    Sorry if this kinda posts aren't allowed here.

    How do you get a domain off of mopro?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 03:06 PM PDT

    I have a client who has a site on mopro. I've made the new website but need to get the domain name. Is this even possible? Mopro seems to be holding the domain hostage and I can't find a single way to get the domain name moved.

    I might be stupid here though.

    Help please.

    Best approach to develop a multi-vendor marketplace?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 02:45 PM PDT

    So I have client who wants a website where fashion designers can sell their dresses to customers:

    ​

    Their requirements are:

    1. Admin should be able to take commissions, add sellers, see reports and take commissions.
    2. Each designer will be able to add their dresses and jewellery
    3. Every designer must have a blog
    4. Every designer should be able to add magazines in their dashboard
    5. Customers will be able to login with all social media
    6. Email and SMS integration

    ​

    And it should include all your standard e-commerce application features.

    Will shopify satisfy these needs with some plugins?

    I am very good at programming and have fairly advanced knowledge in PHP, React and Nodejs. Will Woocommerce or Magento be customizable for my needs?

    ​

    Also if Magento is good for this how long will it take to develop such a website? How much should I demand for this project given that I am in India?

    Why are websites so atrociously unfriendly?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2019 07:53 PM PDT

    No I don't want your damn notifications. No I don't want to join your stupid mailing list.

    I can't imagine web developers are the ones that push for these features. Why don't devs tell their clients nobody wants these stupid features. Or am I wrong and are web developers actually thinking random visitors have been really looking forward to getting 1000+ notifications from every website they visit?

    GraphQL Java implementation

    What are the best ways to avoid front-end debugging when doing web development?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 01:13 PM PDT

    I'm coming back to web development after a long break of 8 years. Needless to say, a lot has changed.

    I'm planning to start a new web dev project and want to choose swift as a server side language. Regardless of which server side language is chosen, eventually the front end code will have to be generated (html/css/js).

    And debugging will be required from the front end which is the part of web development that I loath.

    Are there ways where I can minimize front end development/debugging as much as possible and focus just on the server side?

    Looking for advanced techniques to implement into a "search engine" app

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 12:53 PM PDT

    I don't really know if "search engine" is a good way of describing what I'm doing. But for the most part it is, so I'm going with it.

    Anyways, I'm looking for a good source for advance search engine creation. One that someone can recommend. Most of the things I'm finding are either really shallow or done by "super ninja SEO guru pirates #learntocode". I'd be happy with a decent QUALITY run down of Google's engine (I know, it's secretive, but you get it). I can't find something that isn't superficial or just someone throwing guesses here and there.

    This is 60% experimentation/learning, 40% actual finished personal product. So I'm okay with testing different, odd stuff and burning through some books. Beyond n-grams and wildcards. Better ways to relate data with each other. Methods to find high chances of relevancy to what you're searching for kind of stuff. Kind of like how metaphone() does phonetics of a searched phrase and tries to match that with another. So if you can't spell, it still finds it. That's a simple example. But I think you get the point.

    No, I'm not creating a new internet search engine. (Edit: As in, no crawler.) This'll digest a few gigs of local data to search within. And it's a personal project mainly.

    I figure I need more help in the design aspects of a really robust relational database in terms of "search engine" usage (I have High Performance MySQL on its way as one book I'm going to go through for help). But I figure there are other gems of ideas I have no idea about too. I don't necessarily need a tutorial. More theory is fine. But if it matters, php, mysql and C# will be my tools.

    Thanks ahead of time for the help.

    Is it possible to run Piwik/Matomo on PostgreSQL?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 11:56 AM PDT

    I have a Django app that uses a locally hosted Piwik/Matomo instance for analytics. People recommend PostgreSQL for Python based apps, but I could only find documentation for setting up Matomo on MySQL and its derivatives. I tried running them on their separate recommended/required databases, but both sites are hosted on a single bottom tier VPS with low memory, and with two databases running it makes the memory situation worse. I know I can just switch Django to MySQL, but I've also noticed that MySQL uses more memory than PostgreSQL, so that's what I'd ideally like to use for everything. Memory is the biggest limiting factor of my dirt cheap little server, so is it possible to switch Matomo to PostgreSQL in order to save some of those resources?

    How can I overcome building the same designs for every site I make?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 04:19 AM PDT

    I am currently learning web development. I feel confident with my HTML and CSS and getting my head around JavaScript as we speak. However, when I am putting these skills to use, I can't help but build the same design all the time. I want to get more creative and put new things on my sites but I just don't know what I should be doing.

    Does anybody have any tips to overcome this or know of resource designs that I can take inspiration from?

    Thank you in advance!

    Is this a good method for function programming with express?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 11:35 AM PDT

    So, I'm trying to make my app functional and thereby avoid express's Router class or dependency injection, so this is my solution:

    export function withSignIn(app) { app.post('/sign-in', (req, res) => { }) return app } export function withSignUp(app) { app.post('/sign-up', (req, res) => { }) return app } export function withSignOut(app) { app.get('/sign-out', (req, res) => { }) return app } export function withSign(app) { return withSignIn(withSignUp(withSignOut(app))) }

    And then, I'll just import withSign and call it on app to add the routes.

    Is this the "best" solution, or does someone have anything more elegant?

    EDIT: I moved everything to one function, which I think is a bit more elegant:

    export function withSign(app) { app.post('/sign-in', (req, res) => { }) app.post('/sign-up', (req, res) => { }) app.get('/sign-out', (req, res) => { }) return app }

    Is there any reason not to use a framework like bootstrap for my portfolio?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2019 07:13 PM PDT

    I was thinking it would be good to code it "from scratch", but then realized I would be using js libraries and other efficiency stuff, so is there really any reason not to?

    I feel like just copying a theme or something isn't good, but custom bootstrap seems more acceptable to me.

    What do you think?

    Choosing the right CMS

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 04:21 AM PDT

    I am planning to make websites for small businesses / restaurants etc.

    I am probably going to use a headless CMS, and I have seen some that offer various kinds of layout builders apart from just sets of data.

    Personally I would rather make the layout manually and get the content through the API, but will the client be unsatisfied with not being able to edit the layout? Do you guys have any experience on this?

    Question: How do I create an invite-only​ registration form? (WordPress​)

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 10:16 AM PDT

    So I am trying to create a form on Wordpress for an event where invitees can register. However I only need to them fill basic details like how they would fill on google forms for example, all the form plugins I found are forcing the need for a password, I don't want them to register to the website, just fill up a form.

    (Ubuntu) Linux Subsystem on Windows vs full Ubuntu install on separate partition

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 03:53 AM PDT

    I would like to run my own Linux server on my PC and I am wondering if there are any major drawbacks of using Linux Subsystem on Windows 10 partition performance wise. Has anyone tried both variations and has some feedback to share?
