I published my first NPM Package !! Posted: 07 Jul 2020 12:19 PM PDT I have started learning to code for the last 3 months since the lock-down started and now I have published my first NPM Package !! It's called Chimplist. Chimplist makes it very easy and simple to work with Mailchimp's API to manage your Lists(also called Audiences) and their Members. For more information click on the attached link at the bottom. The motivation behind making Chimplist was to write something that others can use in their code and hope that it actually solves a problem, even if it's a small one. The main point of this post is to share that I learned a lot of new things during the last few days of writing, building and publishing Chimplist :
Cheers everybody to getting better everyday and hopefully making the world a better place! :D PS - My first post on this sub. I just wanted to share this with someone :D [link] [comments] | ||
Looking to Start a Web Dev Business With Outsourcing (Building Websites Worth $10K) Posted: 07 Jul 2020 08:58 AM PDT I'm a Web Developer of 10 years. I'm watching these webinars and YouTube videos about starting a web business that allows you to outsource and scale. Something like $10k per site/client, which allows you to take 3 clients a month at 30k per month. Does anyone have experience with this? I don't want to spend $500-$1,000 on a scammy course, so let's brainstorm and figure this out. Granted this approach would probably lead to a more managerial approach to web dev, but still web dev nonetheless. Here's my research so far... 1.) Pick a Niche. Hone down to a specific skill where you are solving a problem for a specific type of business. Then, It seems like you can get clients by messaging people on LinkedIn. Message 5-20 people per day, make it a personalized message, visit their website and tell them what you can do to improve it. This can eventually be outsourced to a virtual assistant. 2.) You'll have to get on a closing call with the client and figure out how to talk to them. I have experience speaking with clients and I've gotten a few freelance jobs before. But not from a high-paying client. From what I gather the client has to be worth your time. 3.) Pricing. This is probably my weakness. This is the part I'm not so sure about. How do you price things out? I've heard various things. Use a retainer (pre-paid amount with a set amount of hours), and/or everything should be itemized to avoid scope creep, from my experience here are some steps --Information Architecture (how many pages and how will they be built) --Itemize specific widgets, like charts, sliders, etc. What are the "big-ticket items" and which ones bring the most business value? In other words, you'll itemize each part of the website, and how much it will take. Then prioritize. --Wireframing / Mockups --Build out Minimum Viable Product (MVP). --Review current status with client. Re-establish direction. --Continue developing based on client's business needs. Repeat the previous step until the retainer/development time is over. Then, from what I understand you can outsource some or even all of the development, ensuring that you review things before they are shown to the client. You also know that you have the skills to develop, but perhaps others can do it faster than you. Some other key points: --Analytics and UX must be involved in order to make a price worthy product --I am used to Agile/Scrum, which makes sure that you're building what the client actually needs --make sure that the site is optimized for mobile, and page speed is good. My outstanding questions are: --How should you price retainers to ensure that you are profitable and your virtual assistant, developers/designers, and other staff get paid? --How do you go about outsourcing developers? Where do you find good developers and designers who are willing to work on this kind of project? --How do you ensure you're providing 10k worth of value? --I would assume in this scenario the client is responsible for hosting the website.

Posted: 07 Jul 2020 12:22 PM PDT New here, but I could use some help on an issue I'm having. I'm the only webdev working at a startup, I have a direct report manager, and then the owner above her. My manager is great, she absolutely trusts my judgment and choices and I trust her implicitly. The owner is another story, he is kind of an obsessive micromanager, and doesn't really trust anyone, so we all tiptoe around him and try not to draw his attention. To make matters worse, he took a computer science course in college (20 years ago) and did a code tutorial last year, so he's pretty convinced he has my job in the bag, and constantly uses phrases like "I'm sure it won't be that hard," and "I could do that in like an hour." Spoiler alert: The one time he tried to contribute to the app he wrote a broken module in a different language than our app, then spent three weeks riding me about what I was doing wrong on my end. I eventually just rewrote the module myself and didn't tell him. Now his new thing is that everything we produce is company IP, right down to the notes we take in meetings, and he needs access to all of it. So, this morning, he asked me to make him the admin of our Git repo. Now don't get me wrong, I don't dislike this man as a person, but at work I wouldn't trust him to replace a toner cartridge. I tried to compromise and gave him access to my auto-backups, so he can pull down a ZIP of the project if he absolutely needs it, but that wasn't good enough, he is insisting he needs to be a Git admin. My manager is trying to run interference, but I'm not sure he's going to budge, and then I'll be saddled with him having free access to make code changes, plus I suspect he wants to track my commits, because we're often told we're not working fast enough. I'm honestly at the point where I'm thinking of just looking for a new job, I was already considering it, but I don't think I can deal with any more of this crap. Does anyone have experience with a situation like this? I'd really appreciate some input- Thanks Edit: I forgot to mention it but noticed in several of the comments, he doesn't actually own or control the repo the code is on, I started as a contractor with no actual contract, so everything the app runs or is stored on are my personal accounts that I use for freelancing, because he had no infrastructure and didn't know how to set anything up. TL;DR- Micromanager owner wants to be the admin of our Git repo, but he has a long history of being an idiot. Halp. [link] [comments] | ||

What’s the most annoying thing you deal with during handoff from design to development? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 01:50 PM PDT Hex code inconsistencies, missing error/success states, font sizing differences, no tablet designs... what are some things you constantly run into during handoff that make us sound like we're constantly bitching? My favorite is the intentional line breaks added into some text in a component that is supposed to be reusable. [link] [comments] | ||
Want to read a tech article on web dev every day what're some good sites? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:55 AM PDT I wanted to get into the habit of reading some quality articles/blog posts about web development every morning to start my day. I was browsing around Medium.com but I got slapped with a paywall. Been researching a few sites, but I'm curious what you all think are the sites with the most consistent content for the amount of money one would need to pay for access. [link] [comments] | ||

Reusing pages many times while changing content but not structure (using VueJS) Posted: 07 Jul 2020 01:39 PM PDT Hey guys, Im developing a web app with VueJS and I'm tying to figure out the best way to approach this problem. I need to reuse a page about 40 times, with different content/images/highlight color/etc. each time, but with the same structure. Also, I need adding pages to be simple for non-technical people, so they would just need to input the new information and that page would be added (it can be a little more complex, I can write up a short guide for them). Since the page has a lot of information, I don't think that passing props into the component for each instance is really scalable. Im thinking something like a cloud store with a gui for inputting all the new information for each page, but I've never worked with cloud stores before. What do you guys think? [link] [comments] | ||
How does web development fare compared to Data Science in terms of job availability and pay? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 11:23 AM PDT I have heard people burning out from learning tons of frameworks and technology in web development in order to keep themselves updated. It also has a low entry barrier so the people applying for such jobs are a lot more. [link] [comments] | ||

Best option to send daily "semi-unique" study questions to users via email? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 07:22 AM PDT Alright, so I want to build a website that offers a service for those looking to be engaged with a question every day to practice a specific subject. So, the user signs up on the website and receives daily emails which include one question and answer, let's say it's a question about java programming. But, I also want to offer HTML and Javascript, for example. I'd like my users to be able to select which types of questions they receive on their profile on my website. How would I then have a bulk email service send them a problem from the correct category? What service would you guys recommend for something like this. I was thinking of just having the users sign in with their google account to handle authentication and then just store their preferences in my own mongodb database. I'll also probably store the questions/solutions in mongo unless my plan is flawed for some reason (I'm a hobby coder). Thanks for any help! [link] [comments] | ||
HTML marquee slow on some languages on mobile and the sentences disappear Posted: 07 Jul 2020 03:16 PM PDT On this site, the news ticker, This is the code <label class="scroll_news_label"> <span class="scroll_news_label_text"> <?php echo __('Latest News', 'TMP'); ?> </span></label> <?php if (check_rtl() == true) : ?> <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="right" onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();"> <?php if ($news->have_posts()) : while ($news->have_posts()) : $news->the_post(); ?> <a class="news_scroll" href="<?php echo the_permalink() ?>"> <?php echo the_title(); ?> </a> <?php endwhile; endif; ?> </marquee> <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();"> <?php if ($news->have_posts()) : while ($news->have_posts()) : $news->the_post(); ?> <a class="news_scroll" href="<?php echo the_permalink() ?>"> <?php echo the_title(); ?> </a> <?php endwhile; endif; ?> </marquee> <?php endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?> </div> In English, it works great on Desktop and mobile, but on Other languages such as Arabic, I have two problems on mobile only
