Posted: 12 Jan 2021 08:09 PM PST For the past two years I've been working at an Advertising Agency that uses pre-build themes to "build" websites for businesses. I've been mostly doing support tickets and simple edits. During this time I've been studying vanilla Javascript and more recently React. I haven't been sure if I'm ready for a real developer position, but thanks to some advice on this sub I've been applying with the mindset that if I get hired that means I'm ready. Well it's happened. I've landed a Jr Front-End Web Developer position that pays significantly more than I currently make. The interview process was way easier than I imagined. I've been psyching myself up about hard technical JS gotcha questions, worrying if I had enough knowledge etc. But it ended up being very easy questions about html/css and super basic JavaScript. The work won't be flashy, building micro sites, email blasts, making edits to the companies site etc. I'm very excited and very nervous. I appreciate the people who told me to just apply!

139+ interviews failed, I don't know what to improve as a 3 year old developer!!! Please Help. Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:44 AM PST Hi everyone. When I started my journey I learnt a lot from here and r/learnprogramming and r/reactjs. But since then I have been giving interviews by applying mostly to remote comapnies in Europe and USA now, majorly in my home country (which you might have guessed by now, or maybe look at post history.) Even at my current workplace I have been handling whole projects on my own building it up with node.js, express.js, react.js, redux, Next.js for SSR, firebase (handling multiple databases in the same app), webRTC,RTM clients. But what hits me the most in such interviews is that they fail me in the first rounds. I'll share the examples of questions which I'm frustrated and tired to answer by now. ``` a = []; b = []; console.log(a===b); // if this is false why is it? ```
I have shared many posts in past here, where I have encountered difficult to weird questions in javascript. I'm crying right now, as I have been taken out of an interview after being asked to write a reverse string question which I solved this way.
and after solving this he was like, alright we are looking at someone, team-lead. So my major two queries are: - how much should I learn Javascript? What exactly should I learn in it? read it or code it or what? ``` I have been reading the whole javascript.info several times and answered almost everything about the promise.all() and how it accepts an array and returns an array of resolved items. - promise.resolve();
I have even answered these kind of questions ``` what is the vaule of this in JS classes? class BrandCollector { get brands() { return [ 'Docler', 'LiveJasmin', 'Oranum', 'Google', 'Apple', 'Coca-Cola' ]; } } Now my task is to return that array in reversed order without touching the mentioned constrcutor. some other function is just calling it as Array.form(new BrandCollector()).join(','); ``` and could resolve it by writing this in the class without touching the constructor
Rhetorically, I always answer 7 out of 10 questions correctly, that's for sure, no one can deny that. Even if those were hard-difficult, prototype chaining, prototype methods questions. In an recent interviews, I wrote a function to execute all the tasks(functions) provided to it. It was more like writing a wrapper or a polyfill of Promise.all(), without using any Basically can you tell me as a brother/sister what is going wrong? I am banging my head everyday, that I have had so much of javascript from javascript.info and still it is not getting easier to crack interviews. I mean I know it can never be a cake walk, but at least cut me some slack, this is getting more tough. I hope I don't fall into some disturbance or depression.Some times I think I should just create my own sites e.g., blogs, film-news, cricket-news, meme-news, etc. and monetize and earn money on side. EDIT: Should I learn and focus more on system design? Architecting the whole code design for various set of projects. EDIT-1 : // missed the character earlier while writing the post

Gatsby with WordPress - how to bring into the team? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 11:28 AM PST As the title says I currently have a great opportunity to bring gatsbyjs into our professional workflow. I have a bunch of marketing folks on the team who currently use page builders to achieve most of their visions. After reading through the pros and cons I was trying to explain that gatsby renders page builders useless (correct me if I'm wrong here), since gatsby only queries data and the data needs to be processed just like in traditional web development without page builders? Some people had hoped that they could still use a page builder and have the data show up just like that on the front end. I don't think that's possible nor necessary, but in your own words, how would you describe this to non-tech people? Have some of you incorporated gatsby? What were some pros and cons you faced?

Posted: 13 Jan 2021 09:40 AM PST Does there exist a library or microservice that could rate the accessibility of a pdf or other file uploaded to a CMS? I want to give instant feedback to content creators when they are uploading content that we'll eventually have to remove because it fails an accessibility review. [link] [comments] | ||
Looking to identify a specific Jekyll portfolio theme or find something similar Posted: 13 Jan 2021 08:32 AM PST https://alexander-kahanek.github.io/ has a great theme where the landing page has a full page feature image which then slides to the side and becomes a navigation bar. I'm trying to identify the site generator and theme used to build it. I used a theme detector website on the page which identified Jekyll as the generator but couldn't identify the theme. Can anyone guide me how to identify Jekyll themes or which theme is being used on the aforelinked page or something similar (free) that has similar sliding landing page? Thanks in advance.

What really are PHP frameworks, and which one should i learn? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 06:54 AM PST So I have learned coding by myself, I have good knowledge of HTML, PHP, CSS, JS etc and I have also done little bit work with Vue.js. I think at the moment being Web dev is kind of my "dream job" (I'm 21, will finish my studies this year) Few people have recommended me few times to start using PHP Frameworks, so what really are PHP Frameworks, what are the benefits of using them, and which one should I start learning (Which are easiest to learn, which are most used at professional level?)

Any quick website builder that has api connectivity? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 12:41 PM PST Kinda like wix and wix code. I am just wanting to setup a simple payment page that connects to our database. Any solutions or alternatives out there? Background: We have an API that connects to mongodb that will update our database with the username (person who paid) Payment page as in PayPal checkout or stripe or something USA friendly. We want like a front end checkout page that is quick to deploy with minimum code. [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 13 Jan 2021 12:27 PM PST Hey all. Has anyone ever done something like this? Is it feasible? I'm more worried about the tv browser being crappy or not being able to read the files... those sort of hassles. Anyway, I'd appreciate some opinions. Thank you! [link] [comments] | ||

How to create a secure image upload (Cloudinary, Firebase, Vue)? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 09:20 AM PST I have a site project in mind for my working place where the employees should be able to upload images. The images will then be added automatically upon upload to a feed of previously uploaded images. That's the basic function of the site in whole. The tools I'm planning to use for this are:
One thing that is very important for this site is the security. The images should only be visible for a logged in user. If a user somehow shares the images to anyone not logged in on the site, the image should not be possible to see. This also goes for search engines, they should not be indexing these images for the public. I have very limited experience in doing this, so I'm asking for some help with this. Opening the direct URL to an image, is it then possible to determine if a user is logged in through the Firebase authentication and through that determine if the URL in question will show an image or not? Or how do you usually solve this problem when images of a site only should be visible for registered and logged in users of the site? Are there any other aspects to think of as well regarding the database and how to prevent other from reaching its content without a valid login. The images will in some cases contain WIP design material that is classified and sensitive to share with other people outside of the company. Any suggestions to what tools to use instead of the above mentioned are welcome! I would love to do this as simple but secure as possible... :) [link] [comments] | ||
Z-index issue with a fixer header. Posted: 13 Jan 2021 07:26 AM PST Hello. I trying to re-create my portfolio, but I have encountered a issue with my layout. I have a header on the side, and on desktop when the user scrolls, the header just go underneath the work content, and then re-appear when the user appears at the contact section. I have a z-index of -1 on the header, and it works. However, because of the z-index, the user can not click on the social icons in my header. I am having trouble fixing this issue. If anyone can help and point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. I did check a SO thread, but someone else had the same issue and there was not an accepted answer that would work in my case. [link] [comments] | ||
Has anyone actually managed to set up the new non-API Instagram feed to embed into their site? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 08:50 AM PST It's a living hell since Instagram dropped their API by depreciating it. Setting up a facebook developer account, then setting up an app to basically give you permissions is massive overkill and that's not including the fact that I can't even submit my app for approval because there's a bug in the facebook developers dashboard that stops you from attaching an app icon. I cant attach an application icon - Facebook for Developers Has anyone actually succeeded in transitioning to the new method? [link] [comments] | ||
Api design principles and formatting Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:21 PM PST Have a doubt on how to design api that gets consumed by frontend(react in this case). For example api would output prices for and currencies for products and they would be separated in each field and raw, should api also format this so frontend gets nice formated output per product like 9.99 EUR or should frontend consume it raw like 999 and then FE should read currency and apply formatting. There are libraries for doing this on both sides which are not hard to implement so I am trying to see what would be the reasoning to choose which side. So far BE wins as we are already maintaining this formats on BE part in CMS so tracking two libraries would be overhead, also adding another library to FE would mean bigger JS files and slower page load time. Any reason why and when to choose FE for this? [link] [comments] | ||
Best chart/graph plugin/library? - JS/PHP Posted: 13 Jan 2021 08:12 AM PST So gotta take a lot of data and need a fairly flexible robust chart/graph builder. Work in PHP but obviously JS is the likely best route here. Any of you guys got some good suggestions? Paid for is on the cards. https://www.chartjs.org/ seems like a good options but wondering if there is like an industry 'goto' in this area like composer is for php packages etc...

Trying to learn WebSockets, few questions from a beginner? Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:50 AM PST Hi! So in my current project I would need to work with live data coming from websocket API. I've previously only worked with HTTP REST API's, fetched them with certain interval and been happy with that approach. However, this project is expected to scale and the core of the project relies on this live data so I think websockets are the way to go(?). So the API I'm using has quite poor documentation. The only guide they provide, is for Python. The documentation states: you only need to establish one connection across the whole lifespan of application, if you open a new one, the current connection will be broken. So does that mean I should connect to the websocket from my applications backend, update some kind of a database on my backend, and then communicate with that database from my applications frontend? Or should I connect the frontend to the websocket? Wouldn't that require multiple simultaneous connections, or am I missing something here? If someone could share their approach for dealing with websockets, the tech stack etc., I'd be very grateful. Thank you! [link] [comments] |
