Working with somebody more knowledgable than you at the same level Posted: 13 Oct 2019 07:40 AM PDT Hi guys. I've been really struggling with something at work. I'm a junior front end developer, and before this new member on my team arrived, people were very happy with my contributions and work. I felt like a real team member right off the bat. Recently, a new junior developer also joined our team. This new developer is very, very good. Not just in web development, but in general. They are quite intuitive, comes up with counter arguments and points nobody is thinking of, and always make meaningful comments. It's safe to say the team is obsessed with their on-boarding. Meanwhile, I feel so replaced it isn't even funny. I come to work and I'm not asked to do what I was doing before. This new junior has basically taken my spot for doing things I used to be doing. It feels terrible. I still have tasks, but not to the same extent. People don't ask me the questions anymore (and rightfully so since I am less knowledge than the new person). You could argue this is a great opportunity to learn, but this new team member isn't very approachable. They seem to expect me and others to already know this information, and when somebody does ask this person a question, their tone is that of somebody talking down to somebody else. I'd say this is an extremely bad trait of theirs, but this issue still remains. As long as this developer continues to contribute, the higher-ups are happy. There was a period of denial where I felt like I was still just as knowledge, but I've accepted they just have more information than me. I know I'm not supposed to compare myself to others, but it's been really hard to see myself as "the good junior developer", turn into "the other junior developer". I haven't let it stopped me from learning on my own however, which I know is the correct mindset moving forward. I feel replaced, and I don't know why it's giving me such a fit.

Is normal that writing tests for your code ... takes a long time? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 07:13 AM PDT As a beginner, writing tests was as simple as using console.log. As I become more experienced, writing extensive unit tests ... feels exhausting, and I am wondering if this is normal. [link] [comments] | ||
When do you actually use cool concepts you've learned from FP or OOP? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 12:05 PM PDT It seems like frameworks are the default way of building everything. With frameworks you already have a set way of constructing an application, which makes it hard to use concepts like currying and function composition. I'm also hesitant to use vanilla JS, because a lot of jobs require frameworks, so that would be time not spent learning or building skills with high demand tools like React-Redux.

Posted: 13 Oct 2019 01:48 PM PDT Hello everyone! I'm hosting a event, where we're having a lot of volunteers. I'm currently looking for a system, where they can log-in and see their working schedule. We would like to have it hosted on our own server, so we prefer a PHP system. Do any of you guys know a great system that we can use? [link] [comments] | ||
Any tips or anecdotes about tracking your work hours / interactions at a full time dev job? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 04:50 PM PDT I'm about to enter my second full time position as an developer, and one thing I regret not doing better (especially with the rise of union talks and crunch in NA tech) is tracking hours that I worked, and noting certain interactions with coworkers and management; I wish I could have kept more proper documentation. Nothing ever escalated to anything serious, but I became very aware of how not having anything written regarding these things might have bitten me in the ass later. I also just think it's a good practice in life, and follow good practices when dealing with landlords etc. I found it harder to track these things at work with many informal and vocal-only discussions. Does anyone have any experience doing this efficiently, and know which things are most effective if things do escalate in the workplace? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 13 Oct 2019 04:38 PM PDT I am using deep links for my Unity mobile application. Using special urls, users can open up deep links that turn on the app. And send specific data to the app. One of these deep links might look like this... fip://newperscription?q=zoEUaspKSJgVxCbmm5ehXtaHogIqPxtz+nAcsB6RspPNkN0oVzOYaT6kAiYEoi2PUSl0yf4OiruOJ6JfJRHCVxadgXhwdf90g+bX5eSnVRqRQIPc5JpriN7J0n0uMiDdes0a0+lBoht2ZC4OuRSKJ+W/0sh4ObpUFBT32xgHtVLwaFI/qDNTniDO06d9VY+ujNDb3HUFeRDplgR+ulZ+PzfeMb0M7KH8QhyGon50kF+wCn/mCm23DdTd7pwiAG/eq3hdz6GsZikiYxgIu5wARrVh9n2paC37coXwgdnS2wcKnBQbDzT+aA== My desire, is to send this link to the user via an email, they can then click the link and it will open up the app with the data. However this link is not a valid URL and because of that the email will not try to open this link. It will in fact just appear as text. A simple workaround for this, is to have this URL as part of a website. For example, if you click the text that says link within this page of my website, http://www.mrventures.net/debug.html , then the Android device will correctly process the Deep link. However this work around has limitations, namely, I need to know the full-length beforehand and that will not work for me. I will be generating these links on the fly and so will other users. Therefore I need a means of getting the links to correctly work when I email them. There are some companies built around this functionality, however I have a simple idea that I think could work. I can create a simple website that will collect the data and then automatically trigger the Deep link. For example I can make a theoretical webpage named redirect.com Such that when I go to... redirect.com/myCode will immediately and automatically redirect me to fip://newperscription?q=myCode I would like help in creating this website. Is there a simple way I could write this code and host it? Would anybody be able to explain to me what code would allow this to work? Let me know what you think of my idea. If I figured out the javascript to open a new page automatically could you tell me how to parameterize everything in a url that follows after "redirect.com/" [link] [comments] | ||

How to change vertical scroll to horizontal when reaches a div, and then back to vertical scroll? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 02:00 PM PDT http://jsfiddle.net/8y2r70g4/2/ I've made a fiddle of what I've got so far. I want the visitor to be able to scroll down vertically, once they reach the long quote, the quote should start scrolling to the right (while the user is still vertically scrolling down) to reveal the end of the quote, once the end of the quote has been finished, the user should be able to carry on scrolling vertically down the page I've got something in the works, but its quite buggy.. it doesn't work that fluidly. I am trying to replicate the scroll on this site : https://www.couleecreative.com/about [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 13 Oct 2019 09:59 AM PDT My riddle here ia how dev gives the website to the client. Archiving it and sending it thru email, or just giving the login credentials...? Wordpress generally speaking but not limited to. [link] [comments] | ||
Need help deciding the best approach for our very lightweight webpage in Javascript Posted: 13 Oct 2019 09:54 AM PDT Hello, Reddit! Our programming team (exactly 2 people) have a quite good programming background, but we lack experience in web programming in general. As we have a good autonomy and need to make some important decisions for the next project we'll be tackling on our company, I figured this could be a good place on understanding the best course of action for our project. Our plan is basically to improve an existing system we developed a few months ago: we extracted, transformed and exported data from Excel spreadsheets to our program, built entirely in R. However, Excel is terrible at handling user inputs and enforcing validations, so we ended up having to clean a lot of mess after obtaining the data. This time, we're trying to improve these inputs, and the logical solution we found was to create a simple web page that could host a basic HTML form, with client-side Javascript validations, and export the results to our R program. The main requisites are summarized below: - There should be user authentication, in order to associate forms and users and also to allow update of the answers submitted by them - Other than that, the web site will only have a few pages, such as (1) choosing the corresponding year (2019, 2020, and so on) of the submission/editing; (2) the form itself; (3) editing of fields after submission; (4) view submitted answers; (5) intro and help pages - We want to do everything in HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript, for the sake of simplicity. No other back-end languages allowed As you can see, we don't even need a database running in the back-end: if we can export the form results to our R code (in JSON format, for instance) and import them back into our form (in order to allow updateso in the form submissions), we'll be very pleased already! So, does anyone have any recommendations for us? Considering the huge amount of frameworks and technologies available out there, we're having a difficult time deciding what to use in this lightweight application. Angular? Backbone? Node? Any other suggestion? Which option is better suited for this thin, form-oriented, databaseless server? Thank you all in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
Where/how to build the interface/communication tool Posted: 13 Oct 2019 01:15 PM PDT Hi there! I am looking for a recommendation on a topic. I run a wordpress/woocommerce online shop (php/mysql) which is supported in the back with a ODOO ERP System (python/postgres). Odoo is mainly used for invoicing, stock management and basic accounting. Until now I was doing kind of double booking, meaning that all the orders from the online shop I have replicated in ERP in order to create invoices, to follow inventory and so on. Volume was not big and it was still an improvement from when we were doing it in Excel. On the other hand all the offline sales I had to book them manually in the online shop in order to reflect the correct value of the stocks. But now I would like to move things one step further: I would like to receive the online orders directly in ERP and to be able to send stock updates to the online shop after offline sales. Where would you recommend me to build the interface:
Me personally, I would tend to a master-slave model, with a tendency to give the master role to the ERP... on the other hand my programming skills are more php/mysql and I tend go into that direction. Any other thoughts for this landscape? Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
What decent "cheap" choices do I have for semi-remote development? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 01:10 PM PDT I really want to get back into webdev (couple sites I want to do) and I've been teaching myself nodejs and mongoDB but for different reasons (mainly me having ADHD and never knowing if I'll have to take a break in 5 minutes to do something fun so I have to shut down node, mongo +++ to fire up a game or something) I'd like to code semiremotely. By that I mean I dont mind running VSCode/VStudio/Some IDE locally but Id prefer if all files+node+mongo was running on a server. Is this feasible? I dont mind paying $10-20 a month for hosting somewhere if necessary. I saw a post that seemed to hint that AWS supported a setup like that. Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a really fucking simple problem that everyone knows about. [link] [comments] | ||
Does it matter which program I use? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 07:08 AM PDT We started using the program atom in school, but I can't find a lot of YouTube tutorials with exactly this program, could I also watch tutorials for other programs and will the things I learn there also work in atom? (will the commands be the same?) Thanks in advance [link] [comments] | ||
Make "previous" & "next" navigation below post infinite in Wordpress? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 09:16 AM PDT Hi. Below my blog posts I have "previous" & "next" post navigations. But: my first post has no "previous" button (because there is no post before that one of course) and my latest post no "next" obviously. Is there a way to connect the first and last post, so the navigation becomes infinite instead of ending? So "next" on the last post will point to my first post, and "previous" on my first post will locate to my latest post? [link] [comments] | ||
What kinds of technologies fuel interactive course platform like FreeCodeCamp? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 12:36 PM PDT One of my long-term goals is to teach various types of programming in an easy and understandable way to those who (like myself) struggle to learn through conventional methods. I know, this is totally not a solo project, and I totally need many years of experience. But as a beginner in the web stack, I'm very interested in the logic behind these operations. Could someone be so generous as to explain to me the types of languages and technologies used when creating an interactive platform like that? Thank you very much, I really appreciate your time.

Showoff Saturday: Panning/Zooming Interface for Canvas Posted: 13 Oct 2019 01:58 AM PDT I've been playing around with canvas recently and couldn't find a nice simple pan/zoom abstraction, so I decided to write one.

Best and cheapest web hosting service Posted: 13 Oct 2019 08:12 AM PDT Hi, I am looking for a webhosting service to make a super simple page with a video in the background that just has links to socials on it. I was wondering what the cheapest way of doing this was from a hosting perspective. If you need to know what would go onto the site it would be an edited version of this https://codepen.io/dudleystorey/pen/knqyK Thank you in advance :) [link] [comments] | ||

Using Facebook API to link a group with another sosial media platform? Posted: 13 Oct 2019 10:57 AM PDT Hi, I'm a node.js developer, I want to use the Facebook API to link a facebook group with another sosial media platform, a Subreddit or a Discord channel. For now I want the: Everytime someone posts to the group, my web app will get it and submit it again on Reddit or Discord (I can use their APIs), so we should have the submission event listener to detect it and to get the post data. So is that possible? and how can I do that step by step using node.js? And is that possible to pages too? [link] [comments] | ||
Novice web developer needing help with first time website for a client. Posted: 13 Oct 2019 10:46 AM PDT Hello r/webdev, I've offered to create a website for a construction company that does drywall around my area, and I'm very new to working with clients and building an actual website but I'm a CS student and I figured it wouldn't be too hard to get a basic website up and running for them. I want to give them an accurate estimate for how much it would cost to build this website but I don't want to skip anything, I'm thinking 250 since I'm still very new to this. The owner isn't very tech savvy at all. They just want a simple website that's also works on mobile with a home page, contact page, gallery, services they offer and possibly an FAQ page, 4-5 pages max. So here are some questions i have, - What costs are associated with getting this website up and running? I know we need to purchase a domain name and hosting. I'd like to host this for free so i could just give my client a flat fee instead of informing him that it might cost him a monthly cost to host his website, could it be hosted for free through github? I know free hosting sometimes only allows for non .com domain names. Since it's a business they'd probably want a .com name, right? - Should I make this from scratch or should I use some sort of website builder like squarespace or weebly? I want to value my time and if it can be done quicker through squarespace or something similar then that'd preferable. I'm torn between the two, I'm reasonably familiar with HTML, CSS and JS and if i were to build it from scratch it would be good practice, and possibly free but if i were to go through a website builder that might cost more but it could save me time. - I've also offered to get their business set up on, Google My Business, should i be charging more for all of this or does 250 seem fair for a first time CS student? - Lastly, does this seem like a good game plan? Any glaring issues or things that i might be forgetting? Thanks for any and all responses. [link] [comments] |
