How do you avoid getting side tracked when working on a project? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 01:56 AM PDT I would be working on a project then suddenly I would have this thought of another feature I should add, so then I start working on that, then I think of another feature and or I do stuff that isn't even important. This happens with everything, last year I started a project of developing a game. A small game, which kept on getting more and more ideas put into it and result being I gave up on it for another time. How.Do.I.Control.Myself ? [link] [comments] | ||

How do I organize a project properly? Posted: 07 Aug 2019 09:09 PM PDT I've built a pretty massive web app on my own. The problem is I had to do it in a short time frame which lead to messy code and unfortunately not the greatest commits (All in the master branch). Now I'm left with a project that is 85% done, but will take a lot of money to get the extra 15% because I didn't code it properly. For context, I had 8 weeks to create a UI/UX with adobe xd, code it out with tailwind.css, and then do the front and backend. All of this while completing a business plan and so on. I never finished and honestly I burned out and didn't want to look at it for a while. I'm now going to do a rewrite and hire a firm to take on some of the extra work. I understand what's going on in most of my code (At least I hope), but I want to start fresh. I want to make readable code and commits that someone else will understand when I hire. I never actually learned how to structure a project though. How does a professional firm structure their projects? We'll use this bootstrap theme as an example: https://bootstrap-themes.github.io/application/index.html Do they start by creating a design and then coding out a theme? Once a theme is done do they start adding a minimal amount of frontend functionality like modals, buttons, and various things. Then someone creates a database schema and proceeds to build the backend and eventually "glues" together the frontend to the backend? I typically build things in a modular fashion. I'll start with the main features. In this case user profiles and posts. Then I go from there. I'll typically start with the backend and then build frontend functions. Also how should I structure my branches? I'm sorry this is a lot. But I'm really interested on getting better at organizing my projects. Thanks for any advice. [link] [comments] | ||

How do you document your web dev projects? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 01:49 AM PDT The company I work at doesn't have great documentation for the full stack project I'm working on, and I'd like to fix that. It's a small family business, so I'd like to be able to set this documentation up in such a way to make it easier to hand off / introduce new people to. We have the following tech stack for this project:
We currently have an internal wiki, but I'm not sure if it'd be best to build that out more, or set something new up. Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
I have the basics of JavaScript down. Should I now fully focus on learning React? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 02:54 PM PDT It seems that all job postings and recruiters put a huge emphasis on some sort of JS framework. I know developer friends and even they themselves never use vanilla JS at work. Everything is built in React. Same thing for me when I learned CSS. I took a basic course on it and jumped straight into Flexbox or Bootstrap as that's what jobs asked for. Is it worth it to know the basics of JS, discard going unnecessarily deep into it and instead jumping straight into React and getting good with that? Just want to know how to use my time of learning most efficiently. [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 08 Aug 2019 03:37 AM PDT Hey guys! After a long time lurking here, other subreddits and YouTube, I have finnaly taken the plunge and have started learning! Iv decided to go with the norm of learning html, css then JavaScript and have so far spent a week learning html. I'm absolutely loving it at the moment and learning more and more by the day. I really want to purchase a book on html and css as I find books always help me with my studies no matter what the subject is. After a bit of research I stumbled across jon ducketts books and they look amazing! But I fear that there out dated now. And on a side note, can anyone recommend any udemy courses worth while? Or even any other video tutorials. I'm doing Brad schiff's Web design for beginners at them moment but it dosnt seem like it covers a whole heap. I'd love to do colt steels course, but have the same fear as Jon duckett's books. Thanks in advance everyone!! [link] [comments] | ||

Can we agree that GDPR has been an utter failure Posted: 08 Aug 2019 02:31 AM PDT Since GDPR came into affect I've used two websites which are compliant. Most websites pre-approve you and/ or make it frustratingly difficult to opt out. Google Analytics has made no effort to be compliant, following their own definition of PII rather than the EUs, and offering no support to developers in the programmatic deletion of user data. An industry has been created from GDPR. The startups are very smart, but not a single one I found was compliment. Some were charging £40 a month for something they claim would protect you from the law but in fact can't. And as a user it's seemingly impossible to report a GDPR violation. I'm still looking for the authority I should contact. Its quite obvious that the public don't even know what it is and quite honestly don't care. We should do this properly or not at all, because it's damaging the Internet for little gain. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 08 Aug 2019 04:39 PM PDT You may have seen my username here before, but just to preface this: I'm a perpetually lost front-end developer. ANYWAYS, all I want to do is be able to write SCSS. I use Sublime Text because that's what I learned to use in college. I want my markup to look pretty with the colors (not just because of the colors, I promise, just so it's easier to read), and I want to have a compiler that I put my little scss document into once I'm done that makes it work online. I tried a million things. I've tried installing a plugin on Sublime Text, but I got an error message. I tried downloading a different program to write all my markup in, and then I was told I had to download Ruby and directed to a site that only has Ruby for Windows, so I found Ruby for Mac and tried downloading that but terminal gave me a bunch of crap... Well now i've downloaded Hammer, and every time I try to create a new build it tells me I have an error, but it won't tell me what error i have... Basically, if anyone's available to walk me through how to debug this Hammer site builder or walk me through downloading a program or plugin that will allow me to write SCSS somehow, that would be amazing! If you want to take the time to write it all out here, that would also be amazing, but i'm available on slack or skype, too. Y'all are the best. Thanks for keeping me afloat. [link] [comments] | ||
What are the most onerous requirements of GDPR? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 12:40 PM PDT I keep reading about how GDPR is a gift to incumbents like Google because the cost of compliance is so high. But what exactly is required of companies that would make it expensive to comply with the rules? [link] [comments] | ||

How many GB of storage do you have on your computer? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 04:07 PM PDT Looking to buy a Macbook and leaning towards 256GB over the 128GB, this will be my first year working in web development. [link] [comments] | ||
My website is being hit by bad actors, and I don't know what to do about it Posted: 08 Aug 2019 03:59 PM PDT Hello, I have a website that I have hooked up to my email for error alerts. When an error occurs, I get an email about it. Recently I've started getting a ton of MissingRouteExceptions for things like the following:
So I'm pretty confident that somebody or something is trying to hit various URLs on my site to determine if there's a vulnerability. I'd like them to not do that because it's a private site that isn't meant for public consumption. It's hosted on an EC2 server. What are my options? I'm not a sec expert by any means, so advice is welcome. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 08 Aug 2019 08:24 AM PDT I don't want to come off as a whiny B, but I am having the most difficult time transitioning from HTML/CSS to JS. I've taken a dozen courses on the basics and watched many tutorials, but I haven't actually coded anything. No projects, no code quizzes, nothing... And here's the part that I struggle with internally; I know the concepts behind coding and want to make it my career, but even thinking about writing code makes me feel so ... overwhelmed, that I just freeze up and sit there staring at my blank IDE. Overwhelmed or intimidated by my own perceptions of inadequacy. It prevents me from even taking the first steps and actually doing the hard work. But sometimes I feel like I'm missing the internal drive to actually learn coding. I love web design (CSS mainly) because I really enjoy the process of tinkering with a design and watching it evolve. I get a lot of satisfaction out of visual design; and I want to feel that same type of reward system for coding. And maybe I will once I actually build something. For you programmers out there, what is it about programming that brings you fulfillment? What is it about programming web apps (or in general) that brings you that motivation and accomplishment to keep moving forward? [link] [comments] | ||
What new web dev tech are you excited or at least curious about? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 03:48 PM PDT What protocol, framework, or language related to web development are you excited about? Doesn't necessarily have to be something you'd implement right now in a production app, but think it has potential. Two things I am excited about are WASM modules and React Testing Library. WASM because of the code optimization opportunities when using a lower-level language and testing library because I feel using it really makes me think about how a user is interacting with a component when writing test.

If I want to build a portfolio, do I host it somewhere? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 03:30 PM PDT I haven't made my portfolio yet (I will very soon), but should I host it on github or some other site? If so, how would I go about doing so? (I'm still not sure how to use git or github yet, but I will by building some sites for the portfolio). I'd like to know so I can show it to potential future employers. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 08 Aug 2019 03:18 PM PDT Hello I'm using django, nginx, digital ocean server, and digital ocean space storage. my web serves static assets from digital ocean storage but the files stored media don't do the same. I tried creating a new folder in my bucket and name it media then followed the same procedure but it won't work.......does anyone have a similar experience? [link] [comments] | ||
Monitor-Mode-Capable Network Card, Rubber Duckies, etc... Posted: 08 Aug 2019 02:49 PM PDT I have recently become interested in network security and hacking after launching a website and seeing how much suspicious traffic it gets. Today, I have been looking into getting a network card that is capable of "monitor" mode (and potentially packet injection) to get some experience with these tools and better understand cyber/network security. My concern is as follows: In the "cloak and dagger"/"spy vs. spy" world of hacking, how do I know that a network card purchased online, in addition to doing its advertised function, isn't also some kind of rubber ducky or other means of putting a back door onto my system? For everyone such as myself--who intend to learn these methods for defense purposes--there is some amount of people who become interested in these techniques for more dubious reasons. Having played online multiplayer games, I am aware that there are plenty of people out there--even if they are in the minority--who will indulge in hacking simply because being a pain in the ass is great amusement for them. That's not to mention the other bad actors who actually intend to commit theft or meaningful harm through such actions. Any thoughts on this? [link] [comments] | ||
Alternative to Parcel Bundler? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 02:43 PM PDT I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good alternative to Parcel: https://parceljs.org/ I've used Parcel for a few projects, and while it started out beautifully, I ran into some issues which, in my opinion, are pretty serious, such as @imports in .scss files being pretty much broken and jQuery not working, along with other libraries which expose globals, apparently. I really like Parcel and what it offers. It's very easy to start a project. But these things just end up being way too inconvenient. Does anyone know of any other bundlers which don't require hundreds of lines of configuration, writing regex, and installing lots of plugins, to set up even the simplest of projects?

Using script src in another JS file? Posted: 08 Aug 2019 02:30 PM PDT Basically, I'm calling in a JS file from a src in my index.html file. I'm putting all of my JS in another file that I'm also calling in with script src tags. However, code that requires the code from the other files will only run in script tags in the HTML file. Is there no way to get this code to run in my other JS file? TL;DR: -index.js - call in two js files + mycode.js -mycode.js - use code for two js files, doesn't work It will work in the HTML file with script tags, however. [link] [comments] |
