    Does anybody feel the same about frontend jobs?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 11:26 AM PDT

    Not sure if this belongs into the career thread but since this is less about career advice than about your personal experiences / feelings I will put it here.

    However, I always loved doing my own frontend projects, so I build up a small portfolio and landed a job as frontend developer in a web agency. However, I hated my job so much that I'm switching to backend now.

    The thing is, while doing your own frontend portfolio projects you are developer, client and designer all at the same time. That means you can get as creative as you want. You want a website with a poop emoji as cursor? You can do it. Nobody dictates how something should look, act or behave. You are completely free. Kinda like an artist.

    However, working as frontend developer felt like the exact opposite. Your only task is to translate the ideas of your designer and his clients into code. Your website has to be a perfect copy of a template somebody else has made. Nobody asks you what you think of the design that you will have to deal with for the next few months. (Unless it is about technical issues such as duration of implementation or feasibility) It's was depressing and I simply couldn't stand it anymore. Maybe it sounds a bit arrogant, but I'm not a google translator where you can input a design and who translates it into code.

    How do you feel about it and what are your experiences?

    I have two years experience as a web developer but I can't even solve the "Easy" coding challenges

    Posted: 03 May 2021 02:23 PM PDT

    I did not follow the traditional path to web development. I'm 90% self taught (have a bachelors in IT, only 1 or 2 basic programming classes) and picked up most of what I know from tutorials online and learning on the job. Currently working at a very large fortune 50 (non-tech) company doing building/maintaining a few React and Angular applications. I feel like I'm at an intermediate level in the context of my job but there are a lot of gaps in my knowledge, particularly when it comes to algorithms. I know this because I struggle to complete most of the challenges on sites like Hackerrank. I'm nervous about interviewing for new positions because of the coding challenges they usually require.

    What I want to know is if there are any good resources for getting better at that specific kind of programming? I understand these challenges may not necessarily be relevant in real life scenarios but I feel like I'm stuck where I am unless I can prove competency with them.

    Heads up if you're on DigitalOcean. Almost their entire block of IPs is blacklisted.

    Posted: 03 May 2021 06:44 AM PDT

    We have about 40 droplets, unfortunately all are blacklisted, none send mail, none have been compromised, it's the IP block they're on. Even new droplets (tested in NYC1/3), are also blacklisted. We created 10 in a row, all blacklisted, so we reached out to support...

    From their own support - almost their entire IP block is blacklisted, but they're refusing to address it. All are on UCE3 (which is understandably a bs racket, but other hosts take action, they will not.) and most were on 2-3 others. Similar cloud hosting platforms do address this.

    Just a fair warning to check your IP out on mxtoolbox if this is an issue that might affect you.

    Frontend developers, what is your best designer fail story?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 12:37 PM PDT

    Often designer do not fully considered how things will work, therefor as frontend developers you might get into some (less) funny situations which will most likely result in a ton of extra work for you.

    What is your best story?

    In an 8 hour working day, for how many hours of them do you actually work?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 03:16 AM PDT

    So I'm sort of new in this field, and have recently landed my first part-time position. So far I'm shocked and almost disgusted by my inability to stay on task and do proper work for 8 straight hrs. I often find myself staring at walls and looking out the windows as if I'm in a James Blunt song, and I just spend probably way too much time mucking around.
    I've always had similar problems at uni, but I used to pin it down to lack of interest in some subjects and to sloppy and outdated education system. Unfortunately this is now haunting me at my new job as well.

    Has anyone had such difficulties? Did you come over them? And how? Or have they persisted?

    C#, JQuery, MS SQL Server vs. React.JS-based application

    Posted: 03 May 2021 04:30 PM PDT

    I joined a team of developers currently wanting to build an application with C#, JQuery, and MS SQL Server. I know React is the current standard, it's faster, and better overall so tomorrow I am going to pitch the idea of using React (and other modern frameworks/technologies) instead of the ones they want to use. Can someone give me a list of reasons on why using React, Express, MySQL, and Node.JS is better and faster than using C#, jQuery and MS SQL Server?

    How to Get Started With Freelancing?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 03:11 PM PDT

    Hey all, so I've been working with Django for a while now for my software dev class, and have been meaning to get more into web dev generally, i.e. learning other frameworks and languages, and am interested in some day being able to sell sites to local businesses (I'm also really into politics so it would be cool to make campaign websites). I'm a CS student but this is fairly new to me so please excuse my ignorance on this stuff.

    One of the many things I've been wondering about is, if I'm working with React, Django, etc. but want to make adding content really easy for the user so that I don't have to continuously maintain their site, I would assume I'd have to design something like an admin panel, right? I know Wordpress makes blog/article stuff easy, but it seems really difficult to customize, and besides, I really like writing stuff myself and having more control over the process.

    I'm wondering, how should I go about doing this, and have any of you engaged in similar projects in the past?

    Also, from what I understand, Django templating doesn't go very deep (I haven't figured out how to go past one level of doing something like {% block content %}), are there other frameworks that better handle this? I really want to modularize the sites so that I can throw them together more easily, and get more timely feedback from the customer.

    Again, apologies if this question has been asked already, but I would really appreciate it if someone could give me guidance on these topics. General advice for getting started would also be super helpful. Thank y'all!

    In the second video on the topic of server-side rendered interactive web applications Predrag and Marek are discussing what are the specific frameworks you can use in 2021. We've gone through the most popular ones for Elixir (LiveView), Ruby (HotWire), PHP (LiveWire), and Python (Unicorn, Reactor, Sockpuppet) and also some language-independent choices (htmx).

    Help with alternatives to cross origin requests

    Posted: 03 May 2021 02:04 PM PDT

    My team was tasked with adding data from an external source to an asp.net website hosted on one of our servers. The external data is accessible through a REST api. We only have access to the deployed asp.net site on its IIS server. We do not have access to its source code.

    The only way I know how to get the data is to make an Ajax request after the page loads. Need to wait for the asp table to load, and then programmatically insert the data into a column on the table. Of course, we run into issues with CORs using this method.

    Is there another way to do this, without access to the main site's source code?

    Devs hate Laravel?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 10:15 AM PDT

    My colleague wrote a comment on here a few months ago recommending Laravel as a good framework for web development and he got downvoted into oblivion. He mentioned it to me the other day and i couldn't believe it would be judged that harshly..

    disclaimer: we both work with laravel regularly and both love it

    ​

    Does this sub hate Laravel or something?

    How much do you worry about having a good result from PageSpeed Insights?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 01:08 PM PDT

    Hey, just wondering where folks are at on this. When developing, do you regularly check PageSpeed Insights or other page speed analysis products to make sure your score is acceptable? What do you consider a bad/acceptable/good score? Or do you find the scores unrealistic and suggestions too restricting?

    pdfMake - page break if next table row is too big to fit on page?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 12:36 PM PDT

    I think pdfMake can do this but I'm not sure what calculations I need to do. I basically have a table with rows like below. The content height varies.

    How would I calculate 1. the height of the "next row" and 2. the distance between the end of the previous row and the bottom of the page. 3. compare those two and if the next row is too tall, manual page break.

    let dataRow = [ { text: metaText, }, [ { text: `${title}`, bold: true, fontSize: 8 }, { text: `${description}`, bold: false }, ], { image: res, width: 100, opacity: 1.0, }, ]; tableBody.push(dataRow);
