    Playsome is a new Spotify web app for cooperative, democratic playlists

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 09:21 AM PST

    Do your friends fight about the playlist at parties?

    I've made Playsome (screenshot), an app that fixes the music anarchy. Playsome lets everyone create their own playlist and then merges them to one playlist, where every participant gets one track at a time in an equal and democratic manner.

    Guests don't need Spotify, only the host. Playsome is a web app, so no one needs to download and install an app. Just go to playsome.net or share a party address from the app. It also supports Spotify Connect.

    Feel free to try it out and send me ideas and criticism. The app is in beta but has all basic functionality and more is on the way. It's a personal project I've tinkered with on and off for quite a while for fun and to learn. I'm happy to answer any questions about how it works or was developed.

    Is it better to store images in database or filesystem?

    What are the pros and cons? When is it better to store them in a database? Which one is the most secure option?

    I'm here to remind you that hardwork pays off

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 12:46 AM PST

    Hi guys,

    It's been a long time! I promised to help new people once I am able to enter the IT industry but I haven't been able to do that so I'm here to tell my story and I hope to inspire you.

    I started learning web development about 5 years ago using freecodecamp and youtube while working in retail. After 2 years of doing freecodecamp on and off I have been able to acquire the front end and back end web development certificate they offer.

    On october 2017 I moved to NYC and started looking for a web development job, I applied and applied but I never received any feedback from them. It makes sense cause I have NO EXPERIENCE and NO EDUCATION to show, so I started working on a big project that would showcase everything I have to offer while sending job applications.

    On november 2017 I bought a domain to launch my app so that everyone can see and so that I could get feedback.

    On december 2017 I still have been applying but almost losing hope, I tried changing my web portfolio and revising my resume a lot of times and I even started attending meetups. Even when I attended meetups I wasn't able to talk to anyone when it's time to network. I just end up leaving early.

    Around january 2018 I scored on a meetup, someone talked to me! She said I could send her my resume and that she will forward it to her team. I scored an interview!!!! But... I failed.

    After revising my resume and portfolio, and my app also started looking good I started getting some calls, but not much interviews. They're looking for people with 5+ year experience and a bachelors degree... I... I have no hope...

    Around march 2018, I'm pretty much done. I've probably sent over 300+ applications at this point but nothing... I've done all I could. I made a full stack app to showcase everything I have to offer but nothing... I'm running out of money...

    On april 2018, I had a pretty controversial job application. They offered $16/hr in NYC which I was willing to accept at that time because of how desperate I was. But in the end I didn't because they didn't sound like a company that I would want to work in. I have a reddit post about it if you're curious.

    Around may 2018 It's been almost 8 months... I'm pretty much broke... but... I received a job offer for an interview that I don't even remember? (Probably because I was on auto pilot and also of how many recruiters have called but never reached out again.) Hooray? A decent job offer? Good pay? For someone without experience and education? Can this be real? It can't be right?

    But I went through with it... I felt like an impostor. How can I possibly get a decent job? I don't have any experience nor education for this... No way they think I'm qualified. But I went through with it...

    On june 2018 all the paperwork was done, I was given a relocation fee and I relocated to that area, it was an IT staffing company, I went to interview with a client so I could work there. I'm already here so might as well do it! Oh god... they use react native. I've never used react native before. I only know web development... I had to make that clear to the client but they still accepted me.

    I started working on that project... project was released and still ongoing till this day. We are still adding more features to that app. It was a success. :)

    Looking back I didn't think I would ever be here... It was a long hard path but I made it!

    On monday I'm transferring to a different project, and I'm back to web development so it reminded me of my first official project that I used to showcase everything I had to offer at that moment.

    I decided to take a look at that project but the domain has expired and it wasn't working anymore. I bought a new domain just so I could see it again. This is the app I made if you're curious. It used to be betterweb.tech but that domain has been taken. :)

    Anyway, what I'm trying to say here is...

    For anyone out there who's still in the process... All your hard work will eventually pay off! Don't ever give up!

    I have been on the brink of giving up a million times, maybe I took a break here and there but I've picked up where I left off. If I gave up somewhere along the path I wouldn't be here now. I'm happy to have my dream job and be paid decently.

    You might be doubting yourself, losing hope and feeling down. Sometimes we all need a down time but I hope this article picked you up.

    If you're looking for some sign to push forward then this is it. I hope you the best and I hope that you get through this soon!

    ​

    tl;dr: Went through 8 painful months of job searching and submitted over 300+ job applications. Almost gave up, had lots of doubts and went broke but hard work eventually paid off. Currently happy to be where I'm at and hoping to inspire people who are still in the process.

    SEO & Analytics information

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 12:03 PM PST

    Hello /r/webdev!

    I'm a junior developer and am looking for information about SEO / analytics and how to implement to existing and new sites. If anyone has any insight or links to some informative sites and videos it would be greatly appreciated.

    The more I read about SEO and analytics the more it seems like it's its own little marketing microcosm of web development.

    My main questions are how is this stuff handled for small to medium eCommerce sites at a local level?

    And is there a way to utilize it for search returns without running SEO script bots through sites like WordPress?

    How come time.com is so fast?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 10:12 AM PST

    https://time.com/4035819/japan-university-liberal-arts-humanities-social-sciences-cuts/

    I was just going to this link and it rendered the whole article and page so fast I mean it was way to fast than what I open everyday. What surprises me is that I have never visited time.com before so there is no reason it would be in my cache memory. Also I have checked with react-dev-tools, it is not even using that framework.

    So can someone please explain what might be the possible reason of time.com loading, the fetching of data is so quick than anything else.

    How can I collect all my social media posts and display on my webpage? Anyone done this before?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 04:07 PM PST

    I have a create react app. I can make a nodeJS proxy server for it but haven't yet. I am looking to collect the latest 15 posts from my social media accounts upon page load or button click. I am hoping I can do this all from a front-end function. The social media's would be Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, Maybe others. Has anyone done something like this before?

    Looking for online resources about how to maintain projects on the long run

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 09:53 AM PST

    Hey r/webdev,

    I have been a Web developer for 6 years now, currently looking for a new job.

    I have mostly worked in service companies ; this allowed me to work on a lot of different projects, which brought me knowledge on a vast set of technologies and domains. However, the drawback is that I never really worked on long-run projects, and this has been recently a concern during my interviews, where some teams point out to me that I have never worked on a project for more than 2 years.

    I would like to feel more informed and prepared about the best practices to technically scale a project, in terms of performance, security, quality, refactoring, etc.

    Do you guys have interesting resources and articles about how big tech companies (Amazon, Google, Netflix, etc.) handle their projects? Or about Which concepts, patterns and practices do tech companies use to scale properly?

    Thanks in advance!

    Has anyone ever implemented Leaflet in a React app?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 11:47 AM PST

    I'm creating a project which will incorporate some heat maps but I'd like users to be able to filter and load multiple variations of the maps based on their filter selections.

    As far as I can tell the two major drawbacks of using Leaflet in React are:

    1. The library isn't compatible with server-side rendering (which is fine for this project) .

    2. Components exposed are abstractions for Leaflet layers, not DOM elements.

    Questions:

    Are there any other issues I may need to consider?

    Is there a better library or API for heat maps in React?

    Would I be better off creating a database of pre-made maps or map images and rendering those instead?

    I'm pretty new to React and have never used Leaflet before so any help is appreciated :)

    How to share javascript/typescript code and logic between nodejs server and client (browser)?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 11:14 AM PST

    To me, one of the most appealing features of node is to be able to share code and logic between client and server. For example sharing entities scheme and modules.
    But when it comes to practice it's not so straightforward how to properly structure your project and how to adapt server code to be reused on clientside.

    Can anyone share his practical experience how to achieve the above and insights?
    How do you properly structure the project?
    What tools do you use to adapt server modules and dependencies to clientside?

    Why does Reddit add a random class to every div?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 02:55 PM PST

    I like justified 80 ex wide serif, so I would usually write a custom CSS for a web site I use often. It is hard to write a custom style for Reddit. Not only they neglect semantic tags in favour of plain div, they also generously spice the code with what appears to be randomly generated class names.

    A sample: (Beautified.)

    <div class="SubredditVars-r-webdev"> <div class="_1nxEQl5D2Bx2jxDILRHemb" aria-hidden="false"> <div class="_1QwQLdEXq0cZZb7vcte4KK" style= "--fakelightbox-overlay-background:#fafafa;--fakelightbox-overlay-max-width:1280px"> </div> <div class= "_3obgdFz00GvpqpuX8QCsNK _9BEqyBVXtRCQxyeYwqJMB _1VToppe137NbqV5o2PhSdN"> <div class="K4Eem3pMbRbAYioOfqN5E"> <div class="-DOLBAFWXMQX1Q3ErGO8I"> <div class= "_1E9mcoVn4MYnuBQSVDt1gC _2oM1YqCxIwkvwyeZamWwhW _15Igkrvvp7jIfVHt0eKzFd"> <div class="_1rZYMD_4xY3gRcSS3p8ODO _25IkBM0rRUqWX5ZojEMAFQ" style= "color:#D7DADC">22</div> </div> <div class= "_2FCtq-QzlfuN-SwVMUZMM3 P9Qd6oTCWgLr3ackKg0I5 t3_e08lyf"> <div class= "y8HYJ-y_lTUHkQIc1mdCq _2_QBmCTk6VD4M3dvKqXD23 _2INHSNB8V5eaWp4P0rY_mE">

    Why are they doing this?

    What to do if who.is data lists NO contact emails of owner?

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 02:54 PM PST

    This is very surprising, but who.is info does not reveal any contact email from owners of domain.

    Here is wha you see. Blank info. I tried many browsers.

    What to do about it?

    And https://lookup.icann.org/lookup says this:

    Getting React and Shell scripts to work together

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 02:38 PM PST

    I'm aware that since React runs in the browser it can't use Node's child_process to launch shell commands.

    I'm however wondering if there's any kind of library that would allow me to get this to work?

    Is there really no way to create a front end with React that interacts with the Linux shell in the background? I'd love to read any resources or guides you may have about this, I haven't had any luck finding any.

    Divs, floats, flexbox and grid

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 10:44 AM PST

    Hi all. I'm getting back into coding and want to refresh my beginner knowledge of css.

    Before I was learning divs and floats with media queries for layout.

    I've been using Codecademy and they've introduced grid and flexbox to me.

    I'm wondering which method of layout I should use/start to refresh on?

    What's worth learning in layout terms within css?

    Cheers
