    What books and web subjects do you recommend other than programming languages?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 03:54 PM PDT

    Iam looking for something to study, books like "HTTP The Definitive Guide", which do not focus on a programming language, but which addresses concepts important to a good understanding. Maybe also something like "Clean Code" (I studied only the first two chapters of this book)

    My stack is currently based on React + Django.

    What is the minimum requirement to be able to apply for an entry level position?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 10:33 AM PDT

    I'm just curious because I have built websites with decent front end and back end development and am looking to finally get a job in the industry. I see all of these "preferred" or "required" tags on job postings for companies even though I know a lot of the time that doesn't matter. What are the most notable skills an entry level coder needs to know?

    How do you deal with your UI/UX department?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 12:09 PM PDT

    I work in an office where I develop the frontend and backend of websites. We have a UI/UX department but I find myself frequently questioning their expertise (frequently).

    They sacrifice usability of the website for "stylish" UI and have no idea how code works so they'll design something that makes the frontend absolutely disgusting to code only to change it on a whim later forcing an architecture redesign.

    I'm wondering if any of you have been in the same position and what you did about it. Do you fight against the designs or do you just say "fuck it" and build what they've designed ignoring all the bugs that are introduced as a result. I feel like my biggest fight in developing a website is against the UI/UX team.

    How to make sure you get paid for referring clients

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 04:48 PM PDT

    I've been asked to develop a web app that allows potential clients to search through a list of available services from providers that have signed up to be on the platform.

    The people that offer those services are using fairly outdated CRM systems (pen and paper, Word and Excel files, etc) and are not interested in upgrading, which means they still deal with clients through phone calls. There are no referral links, no direct online purchases.

    How can the web app owner make sure that the clients he's referring to said services are accounted for?

    I've thought about:

    1. Asking for the client's phone number and making the service provider call them back instead of having the service provider phone number on display.
    2. Offering some kind of discount if they tell the service provider that they're coming from the web app.

    My client doesn't feel like those ideas would have very good conversion rates. What do you think? How would you do it?

    IT Company requiring me to have worker's comp as a contractor?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 04:47 PM PDT

    I'm an FTE by day, and independent webdev contractor by night, using an LLC. Recently I contacted a software firm for an inquiry about any work that I might be able to help with as a contractor. After a verbal handshake about receiving work, HR contacted me about getting in their system. They mentioned they require worker's comp insurance from me up to one million dollars.

    Is this normal, or odd? I'm reluctant to go find and get worker's comp insurance for my little LLC, which of course I have no employees, but was never asked that before from other firms or clients.

    I apologize in advance for my ignorance.

    In a short sentence - what does a "Shopify Developer" actually do? (Technically / Programmatically)

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 10:42 AM PDT

    So as I mainly work with Laravel, if somebody asked me to describe in a short sentence - what I actually do - Technically / Programmatically, I'd probably say something along the lines of -

    "I mainly route http requests through controllers and use a bunch of service classes and interfaces to handle logic with object-oriented design patterns within the model layer"...

    So in that spirit, what does a Shopify Developer do?

    Do you need two databases for both OLTP and OLAP for a web app?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 04:05 PM PDT

    Suppose I want to create an e-commerce website with marketing campaigns so basically I need one database for all buying transactions including loyalty programme point transactions. Also, if I want to do some analytics to see whether marketing campaigns are working or not then I need another database for OLAP. From the articles I have read it seems like you choose one type over another depending on business requirements but what if you want to do both? I believe it's pretty normal to run analytics over transactional data.

    Why are people expecting developers to work for free like we’re low level musicians and painters?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 03:54 PM PDT

    Is this a new phenomenon in Web Dev of just in America in general, where people expect you to do things for free or for very little. From recruiters trying to hire superstars for a salary barely above minimum wage, to people starting out with freelancing , having to do several projects for free to make a name for themselves. Seriously, what caused this assumption that it's ok to request highly skilled services for such little to no money? Upwork is literally one of the worst inventions of modern history. "Build an website like YouTube, $500 budget". Is our society just cheap or are we really heading for a recession? Not even Witchers work for free.

    Any good guides on how to deploy SinglePage App?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 03:51 PM PDT

    We want to build a single page app with no backend (it's done by another team). How do I go about setting up CD for a SPA? Most guides out there teaches you how to do CD for a node.js or rails app or something similar.

    Anyone have a guide on how to deploy a SPA? Are we better off just treating it like a node.js with no backend code?

    Should I use percentage in CSS?

    Can I trigger an "Add to home screen" on iOS/Safari with my PWA?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 02:50 PM PDT

    I know that Apple has really been dragging their feet with PWAs and you have to manually add the pwa to the home screen in safari.

    Just wondering if they have changed this to allow us to programmatically pop this message up yet in JavaScript?

    Credit Card payment form on page (without going to external page)

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 10:21 AM PDT

    Hi,
    I'm looking to make a website with a simple credit card form on the front page where people can quickly purchase my digital service without going to some eternal website. Sort of like whopaid99cents.com (they use Stripe)

    Stripe won't work for my project due to the pricing - I need something that only takes a percentage of the credit card payments - not a percentage + [x] cents.

    I have a business Paypal account and I also use Shopify, and if it helps, and for my website I have my own VPS. But I'm not experienced in this stuff at all and any googling I've done so far hasn't been helpful. I have a developer who will help me but I'd love some initial ideas of what to try.

    Any tips?

    FREE COFFEE if you can help me fix my email

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 12:55 PM PDT

    FREE COFFEE if you can help me fix my email

    Whoever helps me solve this dilemma will get their next coffee on me (via Venmo).

    "first" = my first name | "last" = my last name

    I'm trying to get my [first@firstlast.com](mailto:first@firstlast.com) email working without paying for a thing. It's almost there, I just need help figuring out how to send without my email hitting the spam folder.

    Overview

    —— Email forwarding is working from [first@firstlast.com](mailto:first@firstlast.com) to [firstlast@gmail.com](mailto:firstlast@gmail.com) (for receiving email to my gmail)

    —— I tried setting up [first@firstlast.com](mailto:first@firstlast.com) in my email client using a Google app password (like it describes in the ForwardEmail.net docs), but it says the account cannot be connected.

    —— I set up [first@firstlast.com](mailto:first@firstlast.com) as an alias of [firstlast@gmail.com](mailto:firstlast@gmail.com) in my email client, which is allowing me to send as [first@firstlast.com](mailto:first@firstlast.com), but goes to the spam folder of non-gmail users (e.g. Outlook).

    Necessary Info

    • DNS Records (with some info changed for privacy):

    DNS info

    • Spam Test Results:

    —— It says I don't have a DKIM, but I believe that's what the last TXT record is in my DNS

    Spam test results

    Thank you in advance!

    😊

    Drupal Maintenance Services? Third Party, or let the Web Dev handle it?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2019 12:55 PM PDT

    I hope this is the right place for this, but we are launching a new Drupal site soon. The devs that did the web site itself quoted us $350/mo for application maintenance. I did some searching around third party Drupal maintenance services and this seems a little high comparatively.

    I'm wondering if just letting our developers do the maintenance is best even if the quoted monthly cost seems a little high? They developed the site so maybe it makes sense to let them do the maintenance as well? They are not managing the physical host, that's being hosted on cloudways (through Digital Ocean) and I assume they will be doing host maintenance.

    Let me know if I'm not providing enough info for this, I'm admittedly not very well versed in web development (I'm the company's IT Specialist and just learned about this project a few weeks ago).

    TIA.
