    Finally got a job web developers

    Finally got a job

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:27 AM PDT

    I quit a data analyst position, or fired actually, last year. No career growth, horrible management, all that and I knew I loved programming. I joined a boot camp and have been making personal projects nonstop.

    I turned down an analyst role at a large tech firm like an idiot so don't turn down a job bc it's not in the industry you want. However if I had to give one tip, it's to KEEP learning and be ready when the opportunity arises.

    I learned react at my school, and I used it primarily until I worked on an angular project with someone I was teaching remotely for. I spent 4 months learning angular, graphql, Apollo, aws amplify until covid basically killed the project. Following this I felt like I wasted 4 months on a private repo, and immediately started working on a react native project.

    Last week I'm contacted about an angular position, intern, that they are hoping to become full time. I realized if I hadn't done that angular project I would not have heard about the opportunity. A project I thought was a "waste of time" in terms of building my portfolio helped me land my first dev job. I'm so happy and grateful to this community, I learned a lot listening to and arguing with you guys! Best of luck to everyone in the job search

    How has your perception of "what web development is" changed since you first started out?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:35 AM PDT

    At the start of the year, I basically had this plan in my head... I was gonna sell web design services to local businesses. As if no one else has thought of this idea.

    The more I learn about web development, the more I realise what the internet actually is, how people are using it, what people actually want and where the opportunities to make money are. This notion that there's loads of money to be made from making 5-page brochure websites for local businesses is 15-20 years too late.

    Every small business either has a website or has an easy way to get a website that doesn't involve you. That side of things is too established and too competitive.

    Now I look at the internet as a technology that provides three basic services. The first is communications. The second, is to continually skull fuck you with an overwhelming amount of bad content. The third is to provide/host services and solutions by either being the solution or facilitating a trade between a buyer and seller who was the service/solution.

    So as a developer, now I'm focusing my efforts on building sites that curate high-quality niche content, and building websites that provide a solution to a problem.

    I'm not fucking around building websites for local businesses that don't understand or value web development. It's a headache. Leave them fuckers for WIX, Square Space and Shopify. That's where my thoughts are.

    How are you looking at web development now?

    Do you buy frontend templates?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:09 AM PDT

    Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but let's try.

    I have been developing vue and bootstrap based ui components library/admin dashboard template for few months now. I started this as a need for myself as I wanted to have nice looking ui library that I could use to build my own side projects. I am focusing not on presentation like many templates on themeforest or similar sites but on functionality of components. Recently I thought that I could potentially monetise this.

    I have been trying to promote it a little over the internet, but still have no clue where exactly customers who need something like this are located. I don't want to sell it on themeforest or similar sites, where they take a huge cut and it's nearly impossible to connect with customers. So right now I am not sure if I should continue to try and find some customers who would buy this or just open source the project and have a nice entry in my resume.

    So I wanted to ask other developers, do you usually buy templates from sites like themeforest or you would rather build your own components and designs?

    Should I learn a framework based on the job market ?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:05 AM PDT

    I am unsure whether I should learn React or Angular. In my country, the most required front end framework appear to be Angular, like 7 out of 10 of job posting's requirements.

    After starting learning Angular for like a week, it appears to be hard and complicated. So I'm wondering if I should switch to react, how significantly easier is it compared to Angular?

    My First Day as a Back-End Dev: Filtered Out 600,000 lines of error logs :D

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 06:23 PM PDT

    I was dreading the backend web dev job. I'm going from front-end dev to back end, from Windows to Mac! Other than setting and installing things, the first task I've done as a back-end web dev is to use an existing linux command that was given to me (like cat .. grep .. awk), except modify it to work on multiple error log files (600,000 lines) to filter out for specific error and display a specific field. Horay! The downside: hour long commute >_>;

    For those who build ecommerce sites -- how do you collect client images?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 12:38 PM PDT

    This is a question for people who build ecommerce sites for clients, specifically about the process of collecting the client's product information and product photos.

    Does anyone have a good method for collecting customer's product pictures?

    The issue I have is that clients want to email me all of their photos, which makes it very difficult to tell which pictures go on which product pages, and what variations to connect them to. Ive tried the following...

    a) asking clients to change the file name of the photo and then email it to me, but some of them don't understand how to do this and/or are working off of their phones

    b) asking clients to use dropbox or google drive, and then just noting the product name in the comments, but this method is too "technical" for some of them

    Does anyone have any other methods they use to keep this process organized?

    Improving problem solving?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 03:55 PM PDT

    I see this skill mentioned in literally every job ad. I don't even know how my skills measure up to it, I'm always googling for solutions. That can't be enough, right?

    How can I improve this, whilst keeping it relevant to web dev? I don't imagine that studying CS algorithms matters, but perhaps I'm wrong. I'd love to hear your thoughts

    Any idea how I add something like this to my own email sending domain? I don't know what the name for it is or how people do it, even the profile pictures. Thanks in advance!

    SameSite cookie killing my internals, level 4 frustration already

    SameSite cookie killing my internals, level 4 frustration already

    Before I begin, let me say that I never ever worked with cookies before. Also, it wasn't me who built any of the sites I'm fixing now. You can already see how lucky I am :D

    Quick overview: I open my website at domain1. Inside a page, I load an iframe with url http://domain2/...

    I keep on getting this warning on chrome and it has affected my website:

    A cookie associated with a cross-site resource at http://interactivelife.me/ was set without the `SameSite` attribute. It has been blocked, as Chrome now only delivers cookies with cross-site requests if they are set with `SameSite=None` and `Secure`. You can review cookies in developer tools under Application>Storage>Cookies and see more details at https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5088147346030592 and https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5633521622188032.

    ​

    I've already tried setting proxy_cookie_path in my domain2 nginx config but it doesn't seem to work: 

    location / { proxy_cookie_path / "/; SameSite=None; Secure"; }

    I also tried adding Set-Cookie header which also doesn't seem to work:

    location / { ... add_header 'Set-Cookie' 'SameSite=None; Secure'; }

    When I tried the second solution, it seems the the header was received from the response on chrome, but chrome gives the following warning:

    https://preview.redd.it/j5qxx2k1a5i51.png?width=1931&format=png&auto=webp&s=fecbe361e0b8e4ec7c72d7209f515097c204223a

    Note that domain2 is our domain as well, and it has a python backend using Flask framework. So should I add the cookies from the python code or javascript frontend?

    Any help appreciated.

    Transitions broken in firefox?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 11:50 AM PDT

    When using the following css:

    #div {

    width: 200px;

    height: 200px;

    background-color: blue;

    border-radius: 0px;

    transition: all 2s linear;

    }

    #div:hover {

    border-radius: 100px;

    transform: rotate(90deg);

    }

    the border-radius does not get applied. If the transition line is removed, the border-radius gets applied. If the transform line is removed, the border-radius gets applied. Sounds like a bug, but I'm new to css. Are you able to spot a problem with the code?

    My website keeps getting rejected from advertisement sites like Google Adsense

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 11:38 AM PDT

    Hello all,

    I have had a small website that I work on for fun for the past couple of years and was hoping I could start running ads on it, however I keep getting rejections from Google Adsense and alternatives like Media.net.

    In case you need to see the website for reference: http://logo-games.com/

    I am just a kid going into first year eng so this is not a full time thing, and I definately am no expert. If you look at the code you will probably cry.

    Any ideas on what I could change to get approved would be greatly apriciated!

    Tips for Finding Remote Work In Remote Locations?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 11:20 AM PDT

    Sooo I at least thought I was an intermediate web developer until I started my grad program. Honestly, I thought maybe some sites used node or other programming languages, but i've only really used pure PHP for the past 10 years. I've learned a lot in the past 8 months, to the point that my grad program has felt like a bootcamp.

    The problem is that I'm located in Hawaii, and don't have any traditional "job" experience, nor have I spent the majority of my time programming for years on end. It's more of a "write php code when needed for clients, and a userscript when a website is annoying" type situation. I also have zero fashion or design sense so front end has always been challenging for me. Even with color pickers, I feel like I would be doing a disservice to others If I really focused on design. I also have some business background and some cybersecurity background from undergrad.

    1) How do you find remote work in an isolated geographic location?

    2) How do you get a job with a large educational background, but mixed knowledged?

    3) Does anyone feel that they have mixed knowledge and will not be able to get any job?

    4) Is it possible to have a PHP job without reliance on Laravel, or other languages, and without doing web design?

    5) Who else is terrible at web design, but has a full-stack development?

    What is the best free platform for web portfolio?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 10:43 AM PDT

    I've decided to start doing some freelancing stuff with web design. I understand that having a personal website is more professional, but I don't feel like it is necessary for a fresh start. So feel free to suggest a platform for showcasing web designs.
