    Job applicants, include links to your projects and don't require a login!

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 07:58 AM PST

    I'm working through our applicant pool this week for two positions: front-end engineer, and summer internship (also front-end). So far 90% of the resumes make one or both of the mistakes:

    • No links to prior work
    • Login required

    I've been in this position myself, desperately hunting for a job so I can fulfill my co-op requirement and graduate. I'm on the other side now, trying to fairly process a stack of resumes 50 deep before my 12pm OKR meeting. I don't have a lot of time!

    You can help me and yourself dramatically by doing these things:

    • Link your professional and project work.
    • Don't require me to make an account (If the project requires an account, include a dummy one on your resume)

    You can also:

    • Honestly spell out your contribution to the project.
    • If you include professional experience, don't just summarize your responsibilities! Include your most major contributions and the impact they had on the business. Explain why what you did is important.
    • Make it look nice. Yes, I know the work should speak for itself, but the resume that looks better than the other 50 will absolutely stand out.

    Anyone else got thoughts?

    What is required to host a website for thousands of people at a time?

    Like Reddit for example. I am a newbie, but I am curious on what is needed to maintain a site like Reddit.

    Deploying App to Heroku?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 03:14 PM PST

    I've just completed my first full stack web app using MERN.I have API and Client. API listens as such:

    const port = process.env.PORT; 

    const host = "0.0.0.0";

    app.listen(port, host, () => { console.log('Server is up on port ' + port) })

    And then in my front-end I have Axios requests as such:

    const host = "0.0.0.0" const instance = axios.create({ baseURL: host, headers: {'Authorization': "Bearer " + window.localStorage.getItem("login-token")}}); instance.post("/users/checkauth", { }).then { ... } 

    This does not work! Previously I was using baseURL: http://localhost:8080/ and that was just fine, but that isn't working on Heroku.

    Can anyone please point my in the right direction with advice, resources etc. ?

    Note - I had 3 different terminals running. 1 for the react app (npm start) 2nd for the database and 3rd for the express back end (npm run dev). I just did this to the best of my knowledge and it seemed to work okay, I'm just unsure of how to deploy

    51 y/o IT professional considering taking a bootcamp to get back into development - opinions?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 02:28 PM PST

    Thoughts on my choices of a static host and headless CMS.

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 01:58 PM PST

    I will be porting over a web app that's currently running on a Django+SQLite instance on WebFaction. It was built for a mom-and-pop automotive shop (outside the US), and is just really a simple CRUD for keeping track of vehicles and invoices. The database models are not very complex at all:

    * Vehicles (ID, license plate number, description, owner's name, owner's phone number) * Invoices (ID, vehicle, service date, parts[], labor[]) * Parts [(description, price)...] * Labor [(description, price)...] 

    With this data, the app is able to generate daily/monthly/yearly reports. That, and being able to simply add a new invoice to a new/existing vehicle are all that's needed on the business side of things.

    I am planning to port it over as a JAMstack as a static site that has access to an API, but I am conflicted on which stack to use:

    Some points to consider:

    • I don't need the (Cloud Firestore's) ability to sync between clients in realtime. The web app will be running primarily on just one machine.

    • I need basic authentication. No user roles, permissions, etc. required. Just a simple but secure (read: not hardcoded) email/password login would suffice. How does this work for static hosts?

    • I need it to be on a free pricing tier as I don't see this app scaling anytime soon. Both stack choices have free tiers.

    • I don't want self-hosted headless CMS solutions (Ghost, Strapi, Forestry, etc.) as I don't have the resources to host them, and most of the hosts require payment.

    • The store owner's won't be accessing the headless CMS's admin at all! Which is why I think Prismic is a bit overkill, but I haven't found any other one with a free tier.

    EDIT: Turns out Prismic doesn't have a Write API, which is what I definitely need! Any other recommendations?

    What is this design trend that is taking over the front end?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 04:23 PM PST

    What is this design trend that is taking over the front end?

    Does this design trend have a name or UI kit? Want to see if there is a plugin for Vue.

    Swervy people, pastel colors, white background until you get to the bottom of the page. You know every new site made in the past year : 0 Normally there is a name like Material Design or Flat Design, just not sure what this is called.

    Design standards

    - Swervey people at top of page

    - White background, the only exception is possibly a shade of white.

    - Show which companies are users, make their logos grey.

    - Show a few features with moving images of stuff working within the app.

    - top right and bottom of page call to action

    - after you log in things look like Stripe design (is it called Stripe design?)

    I could post a dozen trending startups with basically the same design as examples (YC19 companies are an easy target), but do not want to encourage them by giving them traffic.

    Cheers

    Image src not loading from same directory as unserved HTML file unless edited with autocomplete in VSCode?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 01:21 PM PST

    I have an .html file and an image in a directory structured as such

    /project chapter1.html chapter1_pic.png

    In the .html file I have an image tag

    <img src="./chapter1_pic.png" />

    When I open the .html file (which is not being served) in the browser, the image does not load and the source is not found. I have tried to change the image file permissions and use different paths, HOWEVER if I edit the src attribute in VS Code by tabbing through the code completion menu until I find and click the correct file, I am able to open the .html file in the browser and view the image even though the paths look the same.

    Why is this happening and why can I not just view the image normally?

    Choosing my major! Need some advice!

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 12:21 PM PST

    I am currently a student who has a declared major of Software Engineering. That being said I am considering moving my major to Web Development and Design. So here are my thoughts;

    • I do what to be a developer of some sort, software or web, and it seems you can transition into whichever as long as you know the languages you'll be using.
    • I do want to be making 90k+ eventually and according to BLS.gov Software tends to make more on average. But I am not certain the as much the difference if I end up having a BS in one of the other, in terms of pay.
    • I could get an AS in WebDev in about a year and start working as one while completing my BS, which I want to complete.
    • WebDev will be far easier for me to complete as I have experience building and designing websites, and if I want to change I can always learn the languages and move to other positions.

    Anyways those are some of my main thoughts. Just looking for advice and what people think the best options are. From my understanding the two are also starting to blur together more and more.

    Use Domain name to connect to Game Server

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 12:18 PM PST

    I'd figure y'all could help me with this.

    I own a domain, ex: abc-def.ghj which is registered with Google Domains

    I want people to be able to connect to my game server (ex: 123.123.12.123:12345) using that domain name.

    What is the process to do so?

    If updating copyright dates is wrong, then why do Microsoft, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc; all update them?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 11:48 AM PST

    I've read a lot of debate on this subject, but I'm skeptical to tell my client no when all these major tech companies are updating their copyright footers. I get the logic behind the claims I've read here, but how do I trust these over the evidence I see in practice?

    Help with height and alignment please. I am losing my mind.

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 11:19 AM PST

    Hey guys. I will get straight to the point. I am losing my mind over this.

    Why the link the same height as <nav> ?

    html

     <nav> <ul> <a href=""><li>About</li></a> <a href=""><li>Arduino</li></a> <a href=""><li>Tutorials</li></a> </ul> </nav> 

    css

    nav { border: solid 0px red; display: flex; background-color: #333; font-size: 1.5em; width: 100%; height: 8%; justify-content: flex-end; align-items: center; } nav ul { border: solid 0px blue; display: flex; list-style-type: none; justify-content: space-around; height: 100%; } nav ul a { border: solid 0px yellow; display: flex; align-items: center; color: white; height: 100%; } nav ul a li { border: solid 0px blue; vertical-align: middle; height: 100%; padding: 0% 10%; } nav ul a:hover { background-color: #18a33d; } 

    and why does my document cover more than the full screen ? I have scrollbars going in both directions.

    Is it silly to use CSS Grid for 1D layout?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 11:15 AM PST

    Obviously grid is superior for 2D layouts but I'm considering replacing flexbox entirely to keep APIs consistent and get all of the benefits of spacing between elements and doing stuff parent-first.

    Are there any cases where flexbox is actually superior to grid, even for simple 1D layouts, or is it worth porting over completely?

    Running C# from a web application. What are my options?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 10:13 AM PST

    Our company has developed a C# application for a client who now wants a web interface to the business logic. Everything is written in C# and is modular enough that the core functionality is easily separated from the current UI system. The system communicates with a piece of hardware to send and receive commands via USB. This would be hosted on a Raspberry Pi.

    What are my options for accessing the C# functionality through the web? I've looked at node addons but I'm naively hoping there's another way that doesn't involve writing interfaces for every function and class.

    I am a noob asking for help on hosting

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 10:06 AM PST

    I am looking for hosting for MORE THAN ONE e-commerce websites with unpredictable traffic. That is why I would prefer the option to scale it in motion with the expectation for high traffic at once sometimes when i boost it with ads.
    I dont have knowedge of administrating servers/coding/anything beyond building a website with wordpress/woocommerce.
    I would want to also start this experiment with the lowest possible budget.

    I was looking at this offer:

    https://www.interserver.net/vps/wordpress.html

    6$ a month, i asked, they said i can host more than one website, it is scalable VPS and there is free SSL. Do you think it is suitable for me? Is there anything more complicated than a usual managed shared hosting with c-panel? Or would you recommend other options with similar starting price for multiple domains?

    What service should I use to build a website like chatroulette with very little HTML, CSS and Javascript experience?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 01:48 PM PST

    I'm brand new to HTML, CSS and haven't even dipped my feet into Javascript. I have an idea for a website that I would like to launch sooner than later. I know there are sites like wordpress and I saw another user in a post suggest html5up and github. My question is, would wordpress or github work for this type of video streaming? Is there a better alternative?

    I want to also be able to take and send payment over this service.
