    Future for web developers

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 03:59 PM PDT

    In late 2019, I decided to change career paths, since I have always had an interest in computers, I decided to dip my toes into web development. Since everyone and their dog takes a CS course, I decided to do the non traditional way and learn on my own. This is more about challenging myself, than saying school is for losers, because honestly I would rather be in a classroom. I've been going hard learning the basics of HTML,CSS, and just starting to get into JS fundamentals which is quite the doozy. The goal is to get into the front end with a company, then be able to train on the back, it seems far fetched because I see a lot of roles requiring full stacks.

    I kind of hit a wall because, I see some depair in the future, as I know a lot of companies are using bootstrap, or other 3rd party sitebuilders to make their own websites. Will this be a dying career eventually taken over by companies that can just do it themselves without requiring a dev? With tech growing so fast, and new site builders popping up, I fear the front end dev's job will become obsolete.

    I am looking for some glimmer at the end of the tunnel, because I don't want to waste all this time/money for nothing and end up not getting a job due to lack of demand or being overly saturated. I also assume the best thing to do would be to fully study for the end goal, then apply.

    I want to know what current or other prospecting web devs think about the future outcomes in the career, and any motivation to keep going is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Learning community for web development - Coding With Friends

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 01:44 PM PDT

    Some of us on Reddit put together a learning community or web development.

    We recently lost out server and had to remake it so I'm trying to get the word back out there for anyone who was on it and has no way to contact us other than the Discord. It's the same server from this post and this post from u/Banana_burgler.

    We're focusing on front end for now but we'll eventually move to full stack. We're trying to more or less follow an FreeCodeCamp curriculum as a group so we can keep each other accountable. There are definitely some people that are doing their own thing too but like the community.

    Here's the invite link, it expire's in a day so PM me if you need it after that!

    [Showoff Saturday] I've started a series on YouTube where I will take all of the crazy suggestions that you guys give me when it comes to web design, and I will try and code them - it can literally be anything. For the first episode I made this MacBook Pro is pure SCSS.

    Is it possible API requests that work on localhost don't work via Cloud Functions?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 01:00 PM PDT

    Hey all!

    I am accessing a private API at https://foo.com/api/test, and this is working fine when testing on localhost.

    I am using needle in a node app.

    I have uploaded the same function to now.sh, as a cloud function, and when accessing the same API, that API returns a forbidden message. Otherwise now.sh cloud functions work normally for me. It's not a needle / fetch problem.

    Is it possible this is a CORS problem? The web browser is accessing my own resource- it's the cloud function making a call to the external API, and sending along appropriate headers too.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    (If I were to set up a linux box somewhere, it could access that external api as localhost, same as is currently working on my dev machine. It could then dump the results to a file, and expose that as JSON to the internet, for my app to then consume. But that's convoluted.)

    [Showoff Saturday] Built Portfolio site to prep for a new job search - feedback is highly appreciated!

    I have limited design experiencing and even though I know the site looks mostly very clean, I'd like it if any more experienced practitioners can spot any oversights because I have very limited design experience. I still need to add more work examples and fix some kinks in the mobile styles but otherwise everything is mostly finalized. Thanks!

    How can I setup a counter for wildcard items in Postgresql?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 04:13 PM PDT

    What I mean is this. Say there's a user named Steve and I want to have a counter for the fruit he buys. Every time he buys another fruit the counter would increment by 1. Another scenario is a simple binary question which could be like did he use a credit card or no. I originally used Mongo for this so the schema would simply look like this.

    { id: someID, name: "Steve", items: [{ Orange: 5, Apple: 8, Pear: 3 }], used_card: [{ Yes: 6, No: 10}] } 

    So if he buys another pear, the pear value would just increase to 4.

    I don't want to have a column called Apple and another for Orange and another for Pear, etc and have them initially set to 0 and increment as it goes along since there's a lot of fruits that Steve could buy.

    How would I setup the table so that I can easily from my backend just increment the value of pear if a user was to buy a pear, and if the user was to buy a Dragonfruit, it would get it's own value of 1.

    Keeping it short and sweet (like having a counter in my mongo example) is preferred since there could be hundreds of users buying hundreds of fruits and other things, and storing the name explicitly could be very big in terms of size.

    Thanks!

    droplet backup scripts

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 04:11 PM PDT

    hi all,

    in the last few months i started taking over several new projects, many of them hosted on droplets. i already activated snapshots for them but i want something more offsite that helps me sleep better. does anyone know of a backup software that can be configured to backup the www content and mysql database on these vservers and pass data the data zipped over ftp to another server via ftp for example? i already looked around, but nothing really fits. before i start on a python script that can be deployed to these machines i wanted to hear if there may be something quicker.

    thanks!

    [Showoff-Saturday] Made a quiz-maker app where you can create and take quizzes.

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 04:10 PM PDT

    I made an app where you can create quizzes and take quizzes created by other users. It's a bit empty right now, though. Built with NextJS and SCSS on the frontend; NodeJS and Mongoose on the backend.

    I tried integrating facebook login, but I couldn't get it to work.

    Here's the link: https://quiz-maker-fe.now.sh/

    Server security

    Posted: 11 Apr 2020 11:36 AM PDT

    I often see posts like "language (X) is more secure than language (Y) for web applications (backend)"
    what I really don't understand is that it depends on how you write the server for example,,
    I can write make a web server with language (X) -which is claimed to be better- but without validating body/query and directly editing the database.
    the same goes for language (Y) but with validation.

    what do you think? am i missing something?? how is a language more secure..

    thanks in advance.
