    [Showoff Saturday] Newly designed portfolio!

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 08:13 AM PST

    Hi everyone!

    I have recently built myself a new portfolio: https://adamgreenough.me/

    There's still and endless list of things I'd love to do to it in terms of adding more interactions and animation, perhaps play with some more interesting colours and enhancing and releasing the custom blog system.

    Having said that, I'd love your feedback on the basics I have up so far!

    It may not be popular around these parts but it is not static, it is built with handcoded HTMl & CSS, a super simple PHP routing framework as well as a flat-file markdown file parser for the blog.

    PageSpeed not bad either!

    Many thanks.

    ps. There is little easter egg in source & developer console if anyone cares to look. :P

    How Do I Know I am Receiving a Quality Website?

    Posted: 08 Mar 2019 11:26 PM PST

    I am hiring a web designer/developer to design a website and create it. The website will be a basic professional services page with a home page, practice area pages, and professional profile pages. My industry is very competitive for SEO and I would like to have a finished product that checks all of the boxes for a compliant, fast page.

    I think we are spending money in the right place as we have invested substantial amounts into page content and now have a wealth of high quality information to share with potential clients. We also have good photo content. I want to make sure that we are putting this content on a platform that will help us shine.

    The site will be based on wordpress. Is there a checklist or deliverables guide for people like me who do not know very much about websites and want to make sure that we are getting a quality website that will perform fast and work as expected for SEO and our potential clients? Also, what deliverables should I expect at the end of the project?

    Are there specific websites that will check the code to make sure that it is using best practices?

    Running list of what I have learned:

    Run Lighthouse in to audit the code

    look at the website with an iphone and android phone, or use Chrome tools to check out the site

    "Best" Open-source dashboard software

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 04:06 PM PST

    I want to build a client login portal where clients can login with their own Username and Password and upload their files via drag and drop. All the files should be saved on a central folder within the server, or be copied to there.

    Features that would be nice:

    - Dashboard/feed to view their uploaded files.

    - Folder structure to upload in in this case 3 folders (Invoices, Documents, Requests.

    - Preview functionality to view their .pdf .png .jpeg and .excel .doc .docx files.

    What would be a good open-source project to create this.

    I wanted the communities input. I have been following some of the development subreddits and have heard great things about flexbox + grid. I am developing a new feature for our enterprise webapp and was wondering if it is worth A. Migrating from bootstrap B. What I would tell my CTO to convince him that we should.

    Dynamic (GET/POST-able) Tables - Add New Rows, Delete Rows, Add New Table Sections, Edit Data

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 03:39 PM PST

    I have been trying to figure out how to create dynamic tables for hours now and I am getting no where.

    I am using Node.js and PUG (Jade) so far with MySQL. That cannot be changed. I need to post data to dynamic tables that can be submitted and sent back to Node.js for a database update.

    - Right now I am putting all the data I need for the table into a json object variable that is passed to the page when I render the page. I am rendering PUG pages.

    - I need to be able to have multiple tables with editable cells some text some drop down. Cells that I can GET and POST to and from.

    - The first table needs to have a special row at the fifth row that doesn't have any cells and just says "Objectives Completed", with a checkbox.

    - I need to be able to create new rows. And probably save the row configurations into the database.

    Any help at all would be super appreciated. I am completely lost at the moment.

    I have tried for hours to get jquery to work and could not figure out how to use their npm counter parts. I have tried multiple projects from www.jqueryscript.net

    Has anyone worked with Youtube OAuth API?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 03:18 PM PST

    Does Youtube has OAuth? Or it actually uses Google OAuth?

    I want my users to use their Youtube account to login, but as I am reading the docs here https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/auth/server-side-web-apps it gives me mixing feeling that it's actually Google OAuth...

    I wanna get the user's username and avatar data. A youtube account can have multiple channels with different account names and avatars. How does this all work?

    Help animating some interactive text

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 03:07 PM PST

    Beginner here,

    For the title of a page I'm making, I was hoping to have some text that sort of floats around and reacts to the mouse without ever really becoming too distorted or hard to read. I'm imagining like something floating around in a pool. I hope that makes sense. I can't really find an example of anything close and I don't really know how to begin approaching this. Any help or advice would be awesome! Thanks so much!

    ps. I also posted this to r/web_design but didn't really get many replies so I'm trying here too!

    Is running an agency a hiding to nothing? Should I give up and go freelance?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 08:05 AM PST

    A quick bit of background info. I started my own company doing web dev about 5 years ago hoping to grow into a small agency. Health problems stunted this plan until early last year, when I took over another small agency in my town. This resulted in me having one brand for mobile/web apps and one brand for focusing on ecommerce work. The agency take over also resulted in my first employee; a junior level developer, better at backend than frontend who I've had focus on one particular web app framework to try and train him up as quickly as possible.

    The past year has been a real struggle. * I inherited a number of projects that were just incredibly poorly built and required a lot of work to make them stable (nearly all of which I did FOC) * We took on a number of new projects which allowed me to look to take one some more devs, however we have a real shortage locally, mainly due to the nearby city creating a brain drain. * Failure to take on more devs whilst cashflow allowed meant projects went over and I became too busy to project manage them correctly, resulting in more delays.

    The current situation is that the app work has dried up resulting in my junior dev not having much to do. This has left me trying to do our ecommerce work, PM, sales, client management, support - almost everything in the business!

    In all honesty I've become incredibly disillusioned with client/project based work and web dev agencies in general. Dealing with clients is a constant battle of justifying quotes, investigating issues, chasing payments, chasing proposals. Dealing with employees brings its own headaches too.

    It seems that there is so much scope for things to go wrong with a project and for money to be lost whilst the flip side is that the stars have to align in order for you to make a little bit of profit. The risks nearly always seem to outweigh the rewards.

    It's all made me consider downsizing and just working on projects on a freelance basis - no fixed price quotes, getting paid for exactly the hours I work, remove as many of the headaches as possible with the eventual aim to work on some of my own projects/products.

    Thoughts and experiences would be most welcome!

    Web developers, what are all the programming languages and frameworks you use on a daily basis?

    See which vanity url redirects to my actual page?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 01:29 PM PST

    I'm trying to offload some of my domains, and I want to have just one "for sale page" that all of my domains forward to.

    So, example.com forwards to forsale.com

    I want to be able to log the fact that the pageview on forsale.com came from someone trying to visit example.com

    I've tried document.referrer, but it is giving me the empty string.

    What do you all think?

    Which backend languages start from a "blank state" on each request?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 12:49 PM PST

    So with PHP, your actual web server is Apache/Nginx and then the server passes on the request to the appropriate PHP script, which means each request is kind of a "fresh instance" of the PHP process with a "blank state". As opposed to something like Node.js where the Node code IS the server and the same Node process is running until you kill it, therefor each request could access some shared state from variables in the code, etc.

    My question is, which languages work like PHP in that sense? Is PHP the only one that works this way? Does pretty much every other language (Node, Go, Ruby, Python, etc.) all have an ongoing process that acts AS the server itself?

    Is there a coding/programming bootcamp for people who want to become webdev freelancers in a short time (under a year)?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 11:05 AM PST

    I have a decent grasp on fundamentals of programming and can create small programs as part of a larger team project but fall flat when it comes to creating an entire application or website on my own. I've tried the self-teaching path and can never find the time with my current job. I'd like to join some kind of program to kick my ass into high gear and give me the skills necessary to create websites on demand in a short period of time (under a year would be ideal). Eventually I'd like to start some kind of creative agency.

    I really only need to make $40-45k pretax to live comfortably. I know bootcamps have a pretty bad reputation on this sub because they can't get you into Big 5 companies but that's not my goal.

    I also know a lot of people only recommend a bootcamp if your goal is to work for a company because they have job placement programs, but again, I'd rather freelance.

    Finished my portfolio website!

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 11:02 AM PST

    TL;DR https://mm263.space

    First of all, I think that this is a big achievement for me in itself to finish it because I have full time job and for me making it in my free time was a big investment of mental resources.

    There is nearly no content, only one measly article, nothing in portfolio at all (I'm working on it).

    Anyways, I wanted to ask a critique on how it looks and on how the code looks, here is the link.

    Thanks in advance!

    Need Feedback on Hobby Project - PasteHero.com

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 10:57 AM PST

    Hi

    My Brother and i have worked on this little tool called Paste Hero

    It's a simple online code editor made for sharing your code with other people in real time quick and simple. No sign ups or anything, just do your thing!

    When you add your code, you get a unique URL that you can share to another person if you need help troubleshooting a problem in your code.

    That person can then access the link and help you out with your codes, everything works "live" (real time). So when your friend is editing your code, you can just watch and learn ;)

    We wanted to build this tool, because we felt a need for at simple code sharing solution. Sharing a code in messenger, skype etc. can be a pain in the cape sometimes, because the formatting is wrong and it's kinda hard to collaborate and get an overview of the code.

    Upcoming features

    • Group project will be added soon, so you can collect more codes in the same URL.
    • Improved UI for mobile.

    The hero is suited for 14 different languages at the moment, more will come soon.

    (Comment which language you need)

    We look forward to read some constructive feedback.

    Can someone please help with this positioning problem is CSS?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 10:46 AM PST

    I've been trying to make an accordion menu on the left of my page. Here is my code so far:

    HTML:

    <html> <head> <meta charset='utf-8'> <title>Blog</title> <link rel='stylesheet' href='assetsmain/styles.css'> </head> <body> <div class='accordion'> <div class='menu'> <div class='item' id='profile'> <a href='#profile' class='btn'><img src='img/profile.png' width=16 height=16>Profiles</a> <div class='smenu'> <a href='about:blank'>Instagram</a> <a href='about:blank'>Website</a> </div> </div> <div class='item' id='friends'> <a href='#friends' class='btn'><img src='img/friends.png' width=16 height=16>Sources</a> <div class='smenu'> <a href='about:blank'>Source list</a> <a href='about:blank'>Source links</a> </div> </div> <div class='item' id='explore'> <a href='#explore' class='btn'><img src='img/explore.png' width=16 height=16>Explore</a> <div class='smenu'> <a href='about:blank'>Posts</a> <a href='about:blank'>Updates</a> </div> </div> <div class='item' id='settings'> <a href='#settings' class='btn'><img src='img/settings.png' width=16 height=16>Settings</a> <div class='smenu'> <a href='https://www.google.com'>Leave</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class='main'> <div id='title'>Blog</div> This is the main bit </div> </body> </html> 

    CSS;

    body { background: powderblue; } .main { position: relative; margin-left: 25%; text-align: justify; } #title { font-size: 40px; } *{ margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: sans-serif; list-style: none; text-decoration: none; } .accordion { position: absolute; top: 20%; left: 10%; transform: translate(-50%,-50%); } .menu { width: 300px; border-radius: 8px; overflow: hidden; } .item { border-top: 1px solid #2980b9; overflow: hidden; } .btn { display: block; padding: 16px 20px; background: #3498db; color: white; position: relative; } .btn::before{ content: ''; position: absolute; width: 14px; height: 14px; background: #3498db; left: 20px; bottom: -7px; transform: rotate(45deg); } .btn img { margin-right: 10px; } .smenu { background: #333; overflow: hidden; transition: max-height 0.3s; max-height: 0; } .smenu a { display: block; padding: 16px 26px; color: white; font-size: 16px; margin: 4px 0; position: relative; } .smenu a::before { content: ''; position: absolute; width: 6px; height: 100%; background: #3498db; left: 0; top: 0; transition: 0.3s; opacity: 0; } .smenu a:hover:before { opacity: 1; } .item:target .smenu { max-height: 10em; } 

    No matter what I try, if I resize the window, the main div always at some point goes over the accordion menu div. I'd like to make it so that this doesn't happen, so I can have the accordion and a 300px wide div underneath on the left, and the main body on the right. Can anyone help please?

    What is the Pull Request (PR) process like at your company?

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 10:19 AM PST

    I'm curious to know what the PR process is like at other companies.

    At mine it's one issue one PR, unless we're short on time we put multiple issues in one PR. Once a PR is created, the team votes on it. It takes two approvals (at least) for a PR to merge eligible.

    However, when we get really busy PRs will be merge eligible, then someone will comment and I'll have to refactor something. I might go through this a couple of times when we're busy to get something pushed through. It's also frustrating because

    Does your company have a checklist of things that should be in place before creating a PR?

    How do you manage (quickly) switching between multiple branches (PRs)?

    What sorts of things can be pre-populated in bitbucket? Reviewers, Code branch etc?

    Adding new input using Jquery breaks tooltips

    Posted: 09 Mar 2019 10:15 AM PST

    I'm writing a form and I have to let the user add as many rows as required. My inputs are treated as arrays to later save the data to the DB. (That will be another new thing to me)

    Everything looks perfect but when the user adds a new row and interacts with the range input, this won't feedback the user about the value he/she is picking. Just the original one will have the tooltip.

    After some testing, it even affects the 'tooltipped' class used to, well, show tooltips over any element.

    This is the codepen, It's all ready to show you the problem

    How to reproduce it:

    In the codepen provided, you will see the blue cross, when you click on it a new row will be added.

    Play around with the first range input, it will show you the value on the tooltip.

    In the later added range input, it wont.

    Thank you for reading, have a nice day.

    TLDR: When the user adds dynamically a new range input and interacts with it, this won't feedback the user about the value he/she is picking. Just the original one will have the tooltip.
