| Never thought I'd make it without a degree... my first professional project went live today! Posted: 25 May 2021 12:17 PM PDT Posting this because I know there are a ton of people out there in the exact same boat I was a few months back who might need a quick reminder that no matter how bleak it might look, don't stop chasing your dream! Wanted to be a developer right from the moment I discovered a C compiler in my early teens, so I spent as much time as I could teaching myself to program and messing around with little hobby projects, then headed off to get a degree in computing. As it tends to do, a bit of life happened, and I never finished my degree. Instead I fell into a career in restaurants, starting from the bottom and working my way up to managing a few of my own sites. Can't say I didn't enjoy it, and the pay wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't what I wanted from life. I was so convinced nobody would hire a developer without a degree/experience that I never even tried to apply for a dev job, even after I'd gained reasonable skills as a hobby. I basically resigned myself to spending the rest of my life calling it a missed opportunity. Last year, a friend who works as a marketing manager in e-commerce introduced me to her boss who was looking to hire an in-house web developer (they'd previously outsourced everything) and convinced me to apply. Didn't think for a second I'd get it, but she convinced me to throw together a portfolio just to humour the idea. Fast forward a few weeks to when my friend is now also my boss, and I'm working on a one-man rewrite of the company's £300K/month e-commerce site. Early today, after several months of hard work, we released the new website to the public. Woke up this morning feeling like a deer in the headlights, expecting everything to crash and burn and discover how much I'd overestimated myself, but instead the whole thing went off without a hitch, and feedback was fantastic. Still can't quite believe it. So the moral of the story is this: to those of you who, like past me, might be second-guessing your own skills, convincing yourself there's no point trying without a degree, that you've missed your chance, etc... cut that out and just shoot for it! Apply for that job offer you don't have a hope of getting! Take on those projects you don't think you're good enough for! And no matter what, don't leave it as long as I did to chase your dream!

| Losing interest in web development Posted: 25 May 2021 03:21 AM PDT Hey everyone, hope you all are having a great day. I've been doing web dev for about 6 months now, I learnt a lot like HTML/CSS/JS, React, backend development with node and I was fully into it, eager to learn everyday However suddenly I just don't feel like it, I used to be stuck to my computer everyday to learn or build something new or fix that one bug, now it feels like a burden to even sit infont of my screen :/ Web development is the most passionate thing I've ever done and I really, really don't wanna just let it go If anyone else has expierienced this, what would you recommend? Thank you and have a great day [link] [comments]  | ||

| Should i mention about Wordpress projects for a front-end role? Posted: 25 May 2021 09:37 AM PDT Hello guys, I am a 2nd year student of CS looking for advice. I've been freelancing a bit for 2 years just to get some extra cash. I've done approx. 50 wordpress websites mainly using Elementor + integrating API's for some - some shops, blogs etc. I have only like 2 projects done purely with HTML/CSS/JS/PHP(for contact form) + some jQuery. The main question is, should I mention that I've done several websites using Elementor and I've been freelancing? Does it really matter for a front-end dev role? Thanks in advance for answers!

| How does noise and distractions affect you. (What is your preferred environment loud or quiet?) Posted: 25 May 2021 02:47 PM PDT I was recently reading this (https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/7xtyrc/how_many_hours_a_day_do_you_actually_code/) post and a video about how much others in the industry code and my brain went off on a tangent while I was reading because a big argument people made was that they didn't like to be interrupted and couldn't code for 12 hours straight because the level of complexity and focus was hard to sustain over long periods of time. That got me thinking about focus and I realized that some days I love writing code with my husband playing deathmetal on his bass or cleaning loudly and other times I am like your breathing is too loud GTFO of the apartment so I can focus. It doesn't really seem to be tied to anything in the relationship. I sometimes like sitting in a discord call with friends while I work. Basically, am I crazy and bipolar for preferring different levels of quiet. (Or for not having a set noise and distraction level) [link] [comments]  | ||

| how to catch and respond to error on register sign up form? Posted: 25 May 2021 10:14 AM PDT SOLVED:I created code that sets up the members to register and works perfect. I try to add a catch error, if they failed meet requirements set up in usermodel such as duplicate email. Its simple code needs more details but was just to start. I have it working so that if they enter duplicate email etc then they cant register but the catch to reload the register page doesnt work it takes them to login page. However, on my console i am getting error duplicate email, so that part is fine, its just on website/user end the issue. here is the code. app.post("/register", async (request, response) => {try { bcrypt .hash(request.body.password, 10) .then((hashedPassword) => {const user = new User({email: request.body.email,password: hashedPassword,team: request.body.team,username: request.body.username, }) user.save(),console.log("Data updated successfully"),response.redirect('/login') } )}catch { res.redirect('/register') } }) OF course i need also not only register page to reload if error but a message stating what went wrong sent to website, eg. "email already taken" On the console i have error. (node:19792) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection Any solution thanks [link] [comments]  | ||

| Implementing a timeout on the backend? Posted: 25 May 2021 04:30 PM PDT I have an application right now that will ask a user if they're still active every X minutes. If they don't respond to the popup, it logs them out. However, this isn't 100% foolproof. So, I'm considering moving this to the backend. Can anyone point me in the right direction as far as options for implementing this? Have you had success with a specific strategy? Probably not relevant, but for context, this is a node/react/mongodb/graphql application. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 25 May 2021 04:18 PM PDT Hey, I want to create a web app for me and a friend (kind of a game) and I wanted to integrate push notifications so one person gets a notification to the phone for example when the other person "finished a round". I looked around a bit and didn't really find a lot of practical tutorials and stuff that seemed useful for my case. Just some videos by Google Chrome Developers which helped me out with the theoric part. What do I need for it? Is it possible in PHP? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Should I use function or classes in react Posted: 25 May 2021 04:00 PM PDT Hi I'm learning to program and recently made it to react I was wondering which type of component types should I be using, or what is expected of me to use, so fair I've seen that people use functions and hooks, but I really like to use classes and lifecycles since I understand was going on better. Does it matter which one I use? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Quick, Static UI for creating examples, attaching to development tasks. Posted: 25 May 2021 12:12 PM PDT Hello devs, I don't subscribe to this thread, but I had a question for you. I routinely enter development tasks, and occasionally I need to draft what a UI should look like. These are almost always some sort of form with text, radio buttons, checkboxes, select lists, and upload modules. It's usually pretty straight forward. I'm now working on a project that has a lot of interconnected parts and I need to help draft some UIs based on the expected workflow. Simple, quick and dirty would be best. It doesn't have to be functional, png files work fine for this. I'm wondering if there was something that's recommended that's built specifically for this purpose. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 25 May 2021 12:03 PM PDT I have a HTML date input field and the user doesn't have to enter a value. The desktop web browsers Chrome and Firefox allow you to type in year, month and day manually. The problem is that there seems to be no way of detecting incomplete date input. I'm afraid the user might just enter for example day and month and forget to enter year. It would have been useful if I could detect this and show an error message. Chrome is helpful and shows an error message if you try to submit the form with incomplete date data so that's alright. Firefox on the other hand only does this if the field is marked required but I cannot do that because the date is not required. I wonder if there is some way around this? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Which Website Builders Were Used Before WordPress? Posted: 25 May 2021 03:30 PM PDT Hi Veteran Developers, What website builders/CMS were commonly used before WordPress became the market leader, especially those which have become obsolete/outdated now? I've heard that websites were mostly coded, but there must be some website builders. TIA [link] [comments]  | ||
| Advice on my Web Development and Digital Marketing Internship Posted: 25 May 2021 03:18 PM PDT Hello everyone, I'm currently a Software Engineering sophomore, and I got newly introduced to the world of web development and it's definitely something I want to pursue. I wanted to make use of my summer and secure an internship alongside my summer semester, but from where I'm from, internships are pretty hard to fetch if you're not a graduate. I did however manage to contact a company and secure a digital marketing and web development internship. The company is however WordPress based, and I was hoping to find something that focuses on HTML, CSS, and JS, but I took the internship anyway because digital marketing would also be a good plus on my CV, and I didn't want to lose that opportunity since I wasn't sure I could find another internship for this summer. I do not have any prior experience in WordPress, but I think web developers should generally have a good idea on platforms like WP and Drupal since they're an easier approach when working with smaller businesses. But what should I do next? Or in other words, how do I maintain my HTML, CSS and JS skills, and what skills should I focus on attaining while I'm still at school to be able to secure a good job as a fresh graduate? Was it a good idea to take the internship? And what advice do you have for a web development newbie? [link] [comments]  | ||

| What language/frameworks do sites like these use? Posted: 25 May 2021 02:58 PM PDT When browsing on Dribbble or Behance, I find that so many of the sites have the same smooth, round-edge, modern style. Like this, this, and this? Is this just a trending style made in Bootstrap or Tailwind etc, or is there a particular framework/language that's used to achieve such smooth (usually mobile-focused) designs? Thank you in advance and sorry if this is a stupid question. [link] [comments]  | ||
| What 'website builder' services do most folks tend to use? (like Wordpress) Posted: 25 May 2021 02:41 PM PDT I'm looking into studying more web design on top of my QA Engineering (I crave something creative). I have a general idea that while I learn full stack web development, I can also learn the basics of some of the plugin based template sites like Squarespace, Wordpress, Weebly. My main goal for learning about Squarespace and such is to be able to do some very simple side gigs offering a cheap semi local service to set up people with cheap websites, or update their plugins, hosting, etc. So, since time is finite, what service would I be best served focusing on? From what little I know, Wordpress is EVERYWHERE so if I get good at Wordpress, skies the limit in terms of being able to tweak/update other people's websites. But, it's also the most in depth/flexible, so I could go down a black hole studying that one. Squarespace on the other hand, might be so simple that no one really NEEDS help with their Square sites. Of course, I could always do the entire site for people if that's the case but, I'm shooting in the dark here. I don't even know if its viable at all to try to run this kind of service for people, even for beer money/learning. So, I come to the experts who know better, who can tell me why this plan is stupid and help me refine it. Thank you for reading! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Should I keep or upgrade "Vanilla" projects in my portfolio? Posted: 25 May 2021 05:45 AM PDT I have several LAMP projects that I've built without any sort of front-end or back-end framework. I've learned new frameworks like React, Django, and hopefully soon Angular or Vue. Since I'm applying for jobs, is it even worth showcasing these basic projects? I could easily upgrade these to a better tech stack/framework that employers are looking for, but if I do that would it look like I like the fundamentals? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Is there a good PHP library to retrieve the most popular content from Snapchat/Tiktok? Posted: 25 May 2021 02:08 PM PDT Hi! My client wants me to get the most popular content of the day on TikTok and Snapchat associated to some hashtags (#business, #dev, etc.), download that content and put it on our website. Obviously, they don't offer an API that would let me do that. So, I was wondering if there was a good external library that can allow me to do that? Ideally, in PHP. I can work with others languages but PHP is the language of the whole project. Thanks for your suggesiton! [link] [comments]  | ||
