web accessibility pioneer has passed away Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:16 PM PST Jim Thatcher has passed away. Jim was a part of IBM's Accessibility Center and helped developed a pioneering screenreader and other assistive technology for blind users and developed internal accessibility guidelines to HomePage Reader. Jim also was an early support of the Accessibility Internet Rally (AIR), a pioneering hackathon event (before they were called hackathons) that lead to the creation of the non-profit Knowbility. Post-IBM, Jim was Vice-Chair of the Electronic and Information Technology Access Advisory Committee (EITAAC) that wrote the standards for Section 508; wrote the courseo n Web Accessibility for Section 508 for ITTATC; was an expert witness in the Target and Amazon legal cases regarding the accessibility of their web sites; and was an advisor to the NY Attorney General's office regarding Priceline and Ramada Inn's legal cases regarding the accessibility of their web sites. In the words of Sharron Rush, head of Knowbility: "Jim inspires us all to dedicate ourselves to work together to ensure that the information and communication technology tools that are transforming society are equally accessible to all." The Internet was a more welcoming place because of Jim Thatcher. He will be missed. Jim's family has established this fund to provide an annual scholarship to the Knowbility AccessU training conference that Jim helped found and to create an annual award for contributions in the field of accessibility. Here is the Knowbility tribute to Jim. Read more about Jim's work at IBM and other professional accomplishments here. [link] [comments] | ||
A client takes credit for my work Posted: 26 Dec 2019 07:55 AM PST I have this client I have made an application for. Now he goes around bragging that it is he himself who has coded the application rather than pass the word around about my work. I could just ignore it, but somehow I feel that this is just so low that it requires a response. What would you do? [link] [comments] | ||
Fastest way to get a REST API up in 2019 Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:51 AM PST I have a little bit of experience with `Django REST Framework` but recently I've been looking at `Express` or `Golang` for REST APIs. I've also taken a look at frameworks like `fastapi`. Between `Django REST Framework`, some other `Golang` framework, or something like `FastAPI`– which would you use to quickly get an API going in 2019 assuming basic knowledge of all of them, optimizing for development speed?

Website jumps because the viewport size changes Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:05 PM PST Just as the title states, an element on a website I'm building for a school project "jumps" awkwardly when I scroll it on mobile. I know it is because the viewport size changes as when I scroll, the url bar disappears and as my element is depended on vh, or viewport height, it gets bigger. I've googled a lot and only found one solution using javascript that didn't work on my website. Is there any way to fix this issue? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 26 Dec 2019 11:56 AM PST I've been studying html using bootstrap for a while and all of the sites I can create look like they were taken out of 2001. Is there a "next step" where I can start building presentable pages, or is the key creativity with simple commands. [link] [comments] | ||

Would you consider this a good way to practice HTML & CSS? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:59 PM PST I want to be able to recreate this: this using only HTML and CSS for practice. I understand both technologies, but I am not very good at responsive design. Is trying to recreate something like this considered a good use of my time? [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 26 Dec 2019 11:43 AM PST There was this incredible course (https://fullstackopen.com/en/) that was posted a while ago on this sub that inspired me to on some project with what I have learned from this course. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 25 Dec 2019 10:09 PM PST As the title indicates I'm a relative newcomer to web development who's worked professionally at a web agency for about 2 years as a front-end developer. I had chosen front-end as my path since I was trying to transition out of my previous career as a print worker/designer and it seemed like a natural step in to the industry. I work for a great company and if I went back in time to 3 years ago when I started teaching my self development and told myself what I was doing, I would be super stoked! The problem: I'm experiencing diminishing returns in satisfaction with what I do. When I first entered front-end development, the idea of combining my love of tech and experience in design was extremely attractive. Lately though, I feel like a nothing more than a CSS dispenser with little opportunity to actually solve complex problems which was the core of what attracted me to the industry. I've worked really hard to sharpen my javascript skills but the opportunity to do anything more than handle click events to toggle a modifier class have been few and far between, and now I'm starting to wonder if I made the incorrect choice with front-end. I love writing javascript, but lately I've discovered that I principally just fucking love programming and working through logical issues and am experiencing somewhat of an identity crisis in terms of where I go from here. Do I keep investing my time in mastering javascript more? Is my issue really front-end vs back-end? Should I start writing and learning another language? What really will provide a sustainable career while also remain satisfying? Summated question: Where the hell do I go from here? I achieved my first goal of getting a career, but I'm not quite where I want to be. EDIT: Thanks for the feedback everybody. I think I've overall gleaned that I should stay focused on javascript but maybe look outside of the agency world for roles that might be more satisfying. [link] [comments] | ||

Online web dev course for someone who is already an amateur web developer + programming experience Posted: 26 Dec 2019 01:42 PM PST The main thing is I know HTML and CSS and some Javascript, and I want to avoid plugging through the intro stuff (eg. the "how to make an html web page" shite) if possible. Not really relevant but I know a fair bit of Python and Java, and I used to know C++, so in general my programming is decent. But I want to get more into advanced web dev stuff but I don't want to bite off more than I can chew either. Thoughts? edit: literally just stumbled upon the Odin Project shortly after posting this. Any opinions on that? [link] [comments] | ||
Question for junior developers: what type of tech talks would you most likely be interested in? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 09:45 AM PST I'm planning on presenting a tech talk at a local meetup in my city for junior devs for the first time soon. However, I'm currently stuck deciding on topics that most junior developers could find the most engaging. I'm a mid level software engineer who's worked on a lot of different areas like react frontends, ruby/JS/Python/Go backends, and also some devops stuff with CI/CD, kubernetes, and a bunch of AWS products. From my interactions with junior devs and interns at work, it seems like a lot of them are most keen on the frontend or working with JS in general. When it comes to the backend, they also seem pretty keen on graphQL. However, a lot of discussions around platform engineering, systems engineering, and devops seem to confuse them the most. My assumptions is not because of a lack of interest but because these areas seem to be heavily skewed towards seniors. So question to junior devs in this sub, what type of tech talks would most likely interest you? I think an intro in a devops topic like CI/CD with travis, or using a PaaS like dokku and kubernetes could be interesting. But I'm keen to hear what others might like. Also happy to share any slides and resources I come up with on here (free of course) for anyone interested. [link] [comments] | ||
Setting up webserver for production problem Posted: 26 Dec 2019 01:21 PM PST Hi! When I was working with the development server, I had to configure my webserver for it to work with direct URLS. I made some changes and it worked. But right now I am creating a production build, and this build does not work at all. Links are not working. Is it a web server set up thing? I am using Framework 7 and React. Also using Apache Cordova. I am using WAMP. I am still learning so all this is pretty new for me. I appreciate any tips. edit. I appreciate people in reddit don't downvote immediately or things like that. While learning, I had doubts that were really hard for me to explain. I asked them on Stack Overflow. A few had upvotes, others didn't. But one got 3 downvotes and then my account got blocked because the question was not correctly formulated. Tried to fix it but since they closed the issue, I don't know what to do, and can't ask any question. [link] [comments] | ||
How does the new yt mobile webversion toggle the video fullscreen? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:55 PM PST And how does it differ from the default fullscreen of common html5 video players? Thanks [link] [comments] | ||
Website Showing Fine Last Night, Now Looks Ridiculous Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:39 PM PST Hi everyone, I created a website using a template then I went to bed last night. It was really basic, only using two buttons to direct everyone to our forum/facebook. It was loading fine. Everyone could see it and thought it looked fantastic. Now everyone is seeing something ridiculous, with gaudy blue default buttons and a white ring around the whole site. There is even an ugly footer. Why did it change, and how can I revert it? I tried reuploading and redirecting the CSS, editing the HTML... Thanks! EDIT: Solved!!! Thank you everyone!!! [link] [comments] | ||
Can I use a JS framework to make a website with no JS? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 08:37 AM PST I'd like to build a personal/portfolio website to complement my resume. The site will have minimal or no interactive content. I"m a college student with a good amount of experience with HTML and CSS, but less with JavaScript. I have never built a website with a JS framework. Vue and Svelte have caught my eye, and I'd like to learn at least one of these frameworks. Edit: the goal is a single page, static site. Theoretically, I could build this website with just HTML and CSS. That's what I've done in the past, and it works fine. Although there won't be interactive content, I'm still interested in taking advantage of the component-paradigm that frameworks introduce (especially with styling). I'd like to add blog posts eventually, so I think a static site generator would be useful. Should I build my personal website with a JS framework? Even if it has minimal interactive content? What are the benefits/downsides of this approach? Is one framework best for this sort of thing? [link] [comments] | ||
Has anyone used Wasabi as a storage provider? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:20 PM PST Based on their numbers, it's $5.99 per TB per month with no cost in http requests. This beats Amazon by a lot. I wanted to use it for my own personal site (which I want as many users to create an account for and post their own images as possible) to store user data like image/gif uploads. This kind of sounds too good to be true. I'm confused by the process of AWS S3 for moving data in and out to be displayed on my site anyway, not to mention their pricing is confusing. Is Wasabi a good alternative? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:07 PM PST I'm trying to embed a website on my frontpage with iframe like it says to do so in their docs but It doesn't seem to work on firefox, it just blinks and goes blank, I cannot figure out why. Here is an example of iframe working on firefox, you can replace the link with "https://uniswap.io/" and it works fine, but not with "https://uniswap.exchange/swap". Can someone please take a look and see if maybe the site needs to be updated somehow or there is and attribute I can add to my code to make it work? Thank you :) [link] [comments] | ||
How to perform a language agnostic full text search in Postgres? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 12:05 PM PST Hello people, I am working on a project right now, where I want to implement a full text search for postgres. If I understood correctly, the correct way to do this with postgres (with resonably performance) is using ts_vectors which need a language to be specified upon their creation. But I want my texts to be created in all kinds of languages and that's the problem. Can someone verify if I understood this correctly, and does anybody know another method/solution? I know, I could also use regex for the search, but I expect it to be pretty slow on a large database. Best regards the postgres dummy [link] [comments] | ||
Everything I should know before I start looking for my own clients? Posted: 26 Dec 2019 04:33 AM PST My long term goal is to work for myself, and one way I want to do that is by having my own clients by developing websites. When I actually sit down and think about it, I literally do not know where to start. Here are some questions I have from the top of my head.
I cant think of any other questions at the minute, but I will add any if I think of them. If someone could point me in the right direction or share their experience with this, I would really appreciate it. Also, hope everyone had a great Christmas! [link] [comments] |
