    Do you use GIT for your projects that are live on a server or you upload pages without GIT?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 05:37 AM PST

    Hi' I'm in IT but not really in core development. I have started to work on a project (I'm actually learning and building project at the same time for fun)

    I recently started learning GIT and GitHub and I found that it can be life saver when we want to rollback but can be bit tricky for beginners to understand.

    I was wondering if experienced devs use GIT to take their pages live and commit changes or they simply do it by uploading files via FTP?

    Movie and TV series suggestion website - feedback welcome

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 08:36 AM PST

    Im learning react, so I've decided to do a project that I can actually use. Its a website that suggests you random movies and/or series to watch, based on your filters. (I know stuff like this already exists. I just made it based on my needs).

    I made the design myself (yeah.. its probably not the best ). For frontend I used react & mobx, and flask for backend, since imdb doesnt have public api, but they do have publicly available datasets of their media, which is updated every so often. So I download that once a day, parse it together, and store it to my db.

    Here is the website: https://imbored.tv/

    Any feedback is welcome. Either a new functionality, or stuff I can improve on etc.

    Thanks =)

    How do you create the "blog.website.com" url instead "website.com/blog" format?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 07:59 AM PST

    I'm sorry if the question is too stupid, I'm not sure what the relevant keywords are for searching this query. If someone could link me to resources that would swell.

    Thanks in advance.

    My favourite way to brush up on selectors - CSS Diner

    The best trick I've found to quickly review my changes so far (on Windows)

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 06:33 AM PST

    I thought I may share this with you, even if I'm probably not the first one to use this.

    To introduce the problem, I just wanted a quick way to review as fast as I could my changes when coding. I tried MANY IDEs (Notepad++, Editplus, Sublime, Brackets, Atom, Dreamweaver...) that make a lot of promises, even more with their plugins systems and "live preview" options. None really satisfied me, to be honnest. All were kind of buggy at some point, especially when I tried to use additive functionnalities. And Dreamweaver was probably the worst, to me. So I just realized that no IDE would give me side-to-side coding area and preview. An window's split-screen is kind of annoying sometimes. So in each case, I didn' get the fluidity that I was wanting.

    The solution : multiple desktops. This thing is amazing. Honnestly, it must have been created only for the devs. My frist desktop is my main desktop ; my second desktop is my IDE-only desktop, in full screen, and then I can have a firefox, then a chrome and then let's say an opera desktop (if you want a quick way to try browser compatibility) with my lcalhost loaded. When I save a change, I just have to press CTRL+S, CRTL+win+right, CTRL+R and that's it. Maybe it's useless for pro developpers, but at least it may help some beginers like me! I hope it does :)

    ​

    Pro tip, here is a AHK script that'll save your file, switch to the next right desktop and reload your page only by pressing CTRL+q :

    ^q:: Send ^{s} SendInput ^#{Right} sleep, 500 ; Send {F5}

    I haven't been hired yet and my portfolio was changed

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 03:51 PM PST

    I have been looking for a job and I have about two years of front-end experience, a year of React, and also a year of learning backend where I can use PHP and Go fluently. However, I looked at one of my portfolio pieces from an old client and it has been changed. Other work I have done deals with internal tools or backend that people cannot see. What should I do? Make some fake sites to re-up my portfolio? I was convicted of assault in 2010 so it's hard for me to be hired, one class away from graduating with a math degree and this hurts any past applications where I have the site listed. Moreover, the site looks good but isn't as good as the one I made. They took out a carousel I modified and some of the lazy loader transitions. Any advice on how to proceed?

    What should I learn to be more confident about deployment, now that I am comfortable with web development on local?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 11:15 AM PST

    I learned web development online recently and my website is working fine on local.

    The frontend is React and I built a basic node backend which is interacting with GCP and storing some data there (some strings and a pdf from a form). I am using an Express Server.

    I built this for my own business. Currently, we have a simple website which was developed quite some time back by one of my friends. The older website, though basic, does not have any major bugs or issues. Hence, I am apprehensive about breaking some business processes if I deploy prematurely. Which technologies should I learn now to confidently launch and maintain / bug-fix the new website.

    From my research, it seems like I need to learn about git and ssl very well. Am I missing something? Also, any suggestions about good tutorials for this purpose will be much appreciated.

    Nodejs backend cronjob/infinite loop api call

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 02:51 PM PST

    Howdy there.

    Working on a personal project for my development portfolio which is a mess of workarounds and bugscoughfeatures.

    One of my workarounds is the only way it made sense to me but during my internship at a company , they queued these tasks in database instead so I was wondering if im coming at my problem from a wrong angle.

    Heres the case:

    I call a third party API every few seconds to keep the data updated in my database, if new api call has new data or data has changed from 1 to 2 , i send out an automatic message "hey , 1 is now 2" which is saved in my database.

    Now how i achieve this is by constantly looping a js function with Agenda which is basically a job scheduling library. This has created an issue of duplicate message saving but workaround was to unique it on the database side since no message is similar enough to another. The schedule is set to 1 second, but in certain cases it stutters and doesnt update for more than 5 seconds.

    Is there a better way to do this ?

    I don't have a computer science background - I'm a graphic designer. But I really enjoy building websites and working with code. Can I look for front-end dev jobs or would that be a waste of time?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 02:10 PM PST

    Basically, I'm 32 and I went to school for graphic design. I've followed that career path for the past 7 years or so. Every graphic design job I've had has at some point lead to me learning to code basic HTML/CSS and some really basic Javascript. There have been days lately where I think I enjoy the problem solving that coding brings more than the creativity of graphic design but I've never given much thought to pivoting my career because I've always thought I'm just a graphic designer who happens to have some minor coding skills.

    Now that there are tons of tutorials online I've started to teach myself to try to better understand web development. I feel really accomplished every time I learn something new with writing code. Sometimes I daydream about going home and spending my free time coding. The design aspect feels secondary at times.

    I feel like web development is ultimately more lucrative salary-wise than graphic design could ever be (unless your a creative director). I just don't know if I could ever be considered qualified for a dev job with the career path I have.

    Has anyone here had a similar career path? Should I maybe look for a Jr. Dev job at this point? Any advice how I can start steering my career towards this direction?

    [REST] Get data from external API/URL

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 07:21 AM PST

    Hello!

    I'm a junior web developer and am currently learning about REST and how to build APIs to retrieve and post data. I've been working with ASP.NET Core recently, and I'm inclined to use it for this, but it seems that AJAX is also a good option.

    Which one is do you recommend using to build a REST API?

    Also, either from approach or the other, how do I get data from an external API/URL?

    Thank you in advance!

    How to implement a double drop-down menu?

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 01:15 PM PST

    Hi,

    Webdev noob here, but plenty of normal programming experience (still in school as a CS major). I'm trying to implement a double drop menu - such as the one Macy's has on their homepage. You mouse over something, a drop down is shown, and then when you mouse over something in that dropdown, another drop down is shown. I'm not sure if these have a specific name, but I tried searching online and on this subreddit and I'm only finding links for single drop down menus. Any helpful links or examples?

    Redirection after forms inside iframes is done submitting

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 11:23 AM PST

    Hey guys,

    I am looking for a way to know when the 3-rd party forms (which are inside seperate iframes) has been successfully submitted and then doing the action (redirection), am triggering form submissions with 'window.onload' function. At the moment I am using hardcoded setTimeout function for redirection , but it is not so reliable in this situation. Any tips?

    <body>

    <form id="optin1" target="iframe1" role="form" method="post" action="https://some-acrion-url">
    <!-- some input fields -->
    </form>

    <form id="optin2" target="iframe2" action="https://some-other-acrion-url" accept-charset="utf-8" method="post">
    <!-- some input fields -->
    <input type="submit" value="Subscribe" />
    </form>

    <script>
    function submitForms() {
    document.getElementById("optin1").submit();
    document.getElementById("optin2").submit();
    }
    window.onload = submitForms;
    </script>

    <iframe name="iframe1"></iframe>
    <iframe name="iframe2"></iframe>

    <script>
    setTimeout("location.href = 'https://imwithzil.com';", 5500);
    </script>

    </body>

    Using Heroku’s ephemeral file system

    Posted: 27 Dec 2019 05:13 AM PST

    I am making a web app with django which allows the user to upload an audio file which is then converted to text using a speech to text api. The system works when I test it on my local test server (using django's runserver). I am saving the audio file temporarily, transcribing it and then deleting it. However, this doesn't work with Heroku. It doesn't seem to let clients save files onto the Heroku file system. I don't need the file to be saved long term, just for the transcription, so I don't want to spend money on cloud storage with amazon s3 or whatever. Any solution ideas?
