| How to handle staring at screens for 10+ hours a day? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 10:37 AM PDT I know this isn't directly related to webdev, sorry about that. r/Programming does not allow text posts. I work 8 hours a day, I try and get out and walk for 20 minutes during my lunch break but I am essentially looking at my screen for more than 7 hours. When I come home I work on my tech startup, I try to put already a hour in. Then I watch YouTube or browse reddit for a while until I go to sleep. I will definitely try and cut down on YouTube and reddit but the others, I don't really know what to do. What would you recommend? I am concerned about what this will do to my heath over a prolonged period. Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 10 Jul 2019 06:05 AM PDT Has anyone here applied to be a freelancer on Toptal, whether accepted or not? What was the process/experience like? Any advice? Also, are there any less rigorous, yet still somewhat restrictive alternatives to Toptal that you like. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Wordpress or PHP for website selling info products? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 10:36 AM PDT If I am creating a website that sells info products, have reviews that I want to upload in, and selling online courses - what is the best technology to go with? Wordpress, wix, php, etc? I might also want to do video embedding and create a membership down the road. If I want to build on the website and eventually create membership, and stuff like that. What's the best choice? What are good qualifying questions to ask devs to see if they're a good fit? Anything specific I should educate myself on more before hiring a dev? Thanks [link] [comments]  | ||
| JS /CSSLibraries for Dragging and Dropping Input Posted: 10 Jul 2019 03:45 PM PDT Hi all. I'm looking for a library that will allow for elements to be chosen from a "bank" of elements and placed in a specific order. After this, I should be able to parse the order the user has placed elements in. Ideally, users would easily be able to switch the order of elements within a list, similar to the final example(under heading "examples") on this page. Does anyone know of such libraries?

| Is there an ebook or a course that teaches web app deployment from start to finish? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 11:55 AM PDT I want to start coding this web app but I can't get to it! Just when I think I am ready to start writing this I learn of nginx. Or kubernetes. Or security groups. Or build tools. Or database design. Or mocking. Etc etc etc till I lose my sanity. Sure I can google everything. But every concept is dependent on another concept. It is really hard to piece it all together when I have had no experience in a team that delivered web app software. I searched keywords relating to "web app" + "deployment" in sitepoint, amazon and google. Bloody crickets. It all tells you how to program, not how to plan the project or deploy it effectively. There HAS to be some book or course that takes you from "i know to program. Just tell me how to deploy this thing" into "ok now I know". Mind you, I don't mind the programming part. I can handle the backend logic and designing the frontend. Its the deployment part that is eroding my sanity. [link] [comments]  | ||
| JS Prototypal Inheritance or Composition? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 03:39 PM PDT I've been using JS for a while but I started asking myself how can I write better, maintainable and TESTABLE code. I went on the web and I found this guy: https://medium.com/@_ericelliott. Read some of his articles and I agree on using the functional capabilities ( FP ) of JS but when he started talking against classical inheritance that really confused me.

| Stay with Drupal? Switch to Wordpress? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 09:36 AM PDT The site I manage at work is in need of redesign and upgrading. It's in Drupal 7 and I am revisiting the decision to go with Drupal 8 or switch to Wordpress. I have two smaller sites in Wordpress so I have some familiarity with both CMSs. Staff do add content and there are quite a few content types, plus a room booking/event module that has been bandaided for years and ready to break more than likely very soon ;) We have hundreds of events in our calendar and that of course is very important. We also enter and maintain our organization's stats on the staff only part of the site which is another big aspect but one i'd like to move out of the site. Overall I'd like to transfer a lot of the older content to keep as an archive but also pare down what we have and add more functionality -- for one thing event registration. Thanks in advance for any thoughts on staying with Drupal or switching to Wordpress? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Question about CSS property 'prefers-color-scheme' and dark themes Posted: 10 Jul 2019 05:40 AM PDT So soon, all major browsers will support the 'prefers-color-scheme' property, allowing developers to easily create light and dark styles for their website. Is there a (simple) way to override this property with a toggle in the website to allow users to switch between the light and dark theme? I'm not sure how many others prefer it this way, but I would rather have all reading websites (blogs/news) in a light mode, and other websites (videos/images sites) in a dark theme. Although I keep my OS in the dark theme, I'd rather have most websites in a light them. So that's why I was wondering if there is a way for the user to toggle a dark/light theme on a website without changing their OS theme [link] [comments]  | ||
| Is my web app eligible for Google Adsense? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 03:19 PM PDT Googles adsense requirements say that your site should have unique and interesting content. I'm developing a web app that is unique and useful, but the content itself is a collection of links to videos that are available elsewhere on the internet (on multiple different websites). So, in essence, the applications content is not "original", though the function of the web application itself is novel, useful and should theoretically attract users. Also, the videos are hosted on YouTube (not mine), so I'm not sure if that would affect their decision Would such a site be eligible for adsense, considering their original content policy?

| Where to include purchased library license in commercial app? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 11:16 AM PDT This is gonna sound noobish but I have never done this for commercial apps... I just purcahses a commercial license for this animation library : https://ianlunn.github.io/Hover/. I received a pdf license file, and all the source files. Where exactly would I stick this license in my app to make it valid? Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| PHP or Node.js for React Native API Posted: 10 Jul 2019 02:35 PM PDT I recently got a job to create a React Native app (and a website) for a small utility company. The app will allow employees to enter their hours. Management can access the hours through the app or website. I'm thinking about trying to automate a hard copy of hours to, through CUPs. I've worked with PHP exclusively on the server side. What advantages would there be to write the app in Node.js / Express as opposed to PHP / Laravel? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Connecting to mysql using node for an api Posted: 10 Jul 2019 01:57 PM PDT I have a node application that has an api. The api uses mysql. I find it tough to find a good solution for properly managing the connection. I have multiple files. I have found some solutions where the connection is returned and then if the connection ends you just connect again. This seems like a pretty bad way of doing things. What is best practice to manage mysql connection if there is any!? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Refactoring a slew of old sites Posted: 10 Jul 2019 01:56 PM PDT I have a bunch of old sites under management that I'm lobbying to turn off. Prior to that tho, my boss has asked me price out what it would cost to outsource the refactoring / rewriting of the sites. Some were written in ColdFusion 5 and have a MSSQL backend. The structure of the sites and graphics would stay the same and would be written in something modern and supportable. I have maybe a dozen of these things. Is it feasible to outsource this work to a firm? Anyone know of any on NYC area? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Understanding front end in 2019 Posted: 10 Jul 2019 06:50 AM PDT Hey guys, I'm trying to understand how front end frameworks like emberjs, react, angular work, why we should use them and not just use standard boilerplate frameworks like rails, or django? Do these front end frameworks fill a need for all modern day web applications? If so, what need do they fill? Should I personally use one of these frameworks? How do I know which to choose? How do I know what they are for? How do I know when and when not to use them? I am increasingly confused by all of these new things I'm hearing about, and I was hoping someone could maybe help me out with some of my questions above. Now days we have so many! Emberjs, React, Angular, and more! I'm used to only having front end stuff in basic html with a templating engine (ruby on rails has ERB), and then basic javascript and css, with my backend in rails. What's all of this stuff with coffeescript? SCSS? Compiling of css files, and more. It seems like such a mess, so much to know. Also, what is sass css? What about Less, and Stylus? Why should I use these? Should I care about these? Why do they matter? I may have more questions, but I think this is good for now. Thanks, Bdoom [link] [comments]  | ||
| help clicking readmore on card(box) also extends the second Posted: 10 Jul 2019 12:35 PM PDT i have a 2 by 2 (4 boxes in total) box layout, each shows a specific amount of text, to expand this you would have to click readmore, in either box 1, 2 , 3 or 4. The problem: Each time i click readmore on one box, it automatically expands the second box with empty white space, i.e if i click box 3, box 4 would also expand. what steps i have taken: I have tried to use a max-width, but this only allows text to overflow depending on the content, available. setting overflow to auto isn't an option . I have put the link to the codepen below. Thank you. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Are there any tutorials to learn C++ for people that already know JS? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 11:59 AM PDT I cant seem to find any material on youtube or udemy that is geared at people that already know what a variable, loop, functions, 0-indexed arrays, etc are. You would think that I could simply skip to a part where "the C++ begins", but the problem is that these tutorials have C++ specific tidbits mixed in often, so I cant just skip it.

| What's your experience with Vultr? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 03:12 AM PDT I created two Vultr VMs few months back. Since then one of those has been rebooted quite a lot. And it always comes with some downtime. Here is the schedule of reboots:
The other node has only been rebooted once
Maybe that's not an issue for people having a farm of nodes, but for me each project runs on a single VM, so downtime for the VM is downtime for the project. Is your experience similar? Or is that one VM on an unlucky node and I should try to transfer it to another? And if so, would it be reasonable to ask Vultr to move my VM to a more healthy node or I should just recreate the VM and hope to be more successful? [link] [comments]  | ||
| What's a good, secure php script to take data from a contact form and send it off in an email? Posted: 10 Jul 2019 11:55 AM PDT I've been away from the world of web dev and am wondering if there's anything like an industry standard for this. I just want to do the basic task of having a form on a page that users fill out and the results are sent to an email. But of course I want this to be secure and not be used for spamming etc. I found this which looks good, albeit old: https://www.tectite.com Anyone have a go-to they use for this sort of thing? My only caveat is I want the form itself to have an html extension (not php. The values should be sent to a separate php script.) Doesn't have to be free though that's always nice. Thanks in advance.
