    How to handle horrible design skills when creating my portfolio pieces?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 08:17 AM PDT

    If given a good design, i could program it, but starring at a blank screen having to design from scratch, my brain goes blank even though I know what a good design consists of.

    How did you guys that are also "design challenged" handle this? Is paying a designer worth it for just some portfolio pieces. They're basically a Doordash clone and a react planner. Thank you in advance.

    How did you learn to design?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 10:40 AM PDT

    I am still working on the development side of things, and i believe i am sterting to have a decently grasp of layouts and i am also in the process of learning js and jquery. My question is where or how did you learn the best practice of picking colors, making images and logos, and overall cool themes? I want to become a well rounded person and have at least a basic grasp of every single process that goes into development.

    The State of Developer Ecosystem 2021

    which development tool should I learn?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 04:19 PM PDT

    I confess, I'm a perpetual novice. As a small town generalist, I do so many things it's hard to develop expertise at any of them. I do photography, videography, print design, text editing, and, yes, I build websites. I've been at the web stuff for a long time, since the late 1990s, but the technology changes so fast it's hard to learn the new stuff and refine my skills that I've already begun to develop.

    I'm used to hand-coding sites; that seems to be a quaint, antiquated habit in this day and age. I've built my own "framework", using my own PHP, MySQLi, HTML, CSS, and as little Javascript as I can get away with. While this pseudo-framework is kinda cute, it's buggy as hell, and it's not easy to update sites when I add new functionality or fix bugs, as the various sites have all evolved in their own directions. I've come to the conclusion that this framework thang is a dead end.

    I've concluded that I should invest some brain cells in learning one of the newfangled site development tools. But which one? That's where I turn to you, oh glorious hive mind. I've dabbled with quite a few of these tools, such as Wordpress, Drupal, and Processwire, but have yet to find one that looks very promising.

    Some criteria:

    • It should use the tools I'm already familiar with, PHP/MySQL, so I can tweak the code if necessary.
    • It should not produce code which is horrifically bloated. I laugh at pages which load five Javascript libraries but don't use much Javascript.
    • It should be flexible. I build many different kinds of sites, from artists' galleries to traditional shopping carts to simple business card sites to blogs to various hybrids.
    • It should have an active support community.
    • It should be easily customizable.

    Any ideas?

    Do They Exist? Studies Conducted on User Behavior

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 11:51 AM PDT

    Does anyone know if such a thing exists? I believe I've read some articles that cited studies on things like sliding pane effectiveness but I've never followed up on the sources.

    If you're aware of any well known web behavior studies, can you provide a link?

    'Selling" a website to someone - is my thought process/procedure correct?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 04:16 PM PDT

    An elderly gentleman needed a 3 page website made for his lawnmowing business: contact page, about, home page

    I bought the domain on hostgator for 1$ and made the website

    the website is hosted on my Linode (is this correct to say its hosted on my linode?)

    so what im wondering is...how do I give it to him? He has 0 idea about internet or computers and just wants the website to work

    do I just give him the username and password to the hostgator account?

    Help with 100% CPU usage

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 02:40 AM PDT

    I've deployed my Flask app in a docker container, on a DigitalOcean basic droplet. Other deployment components are: Gunicorn WSGI, nginx as reverse proxy.

    It doesn't start using 100% right away, but after several hours of starting it up it goes to 100% and stays there continuously.. The app is just being tested now and there's not much traffic. How should I go about debugging this?

    Creating a group call web app with WebRTC

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 07:42 AM PDT

    I'm not familiar with the extensive jargon in the WebRTC page and am having a hard time understanding whether it will be the right tool to use.

    I'm creating a web app similar to tinychat where users can enter a virtual room and talk amongst each other using text chat and video/audio. From what I've read, it seems like WebRTC is a solution for peer to peer calls, but with the way my application is set up, I don't think peer to peer calls would work in this manner, since a "room" is hosting the connections between users. Would WebRTC still be a good tool to use in this case?

    Anyone aware of a free speed test API that doesn't require an API key?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 06:25 AM PDT

    I want to embed a speed test into a desktop app I'm building. Is anyone aware of a free speed test API that supports both download & upload speed results, and doesn't require an API key?

    If not aware of an API, is anyone aware of a free speed test service that can be hacked around to get results using HTTP/websock calls from a desktop app or locally running SPA, without requiring auth?

    Chrome throttling JS timers which are used to track session to log out idle user

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 07:25 AM PDT

    Basically what the title says The client is supposed to log out the user after being idle for 15 minutes. The timer is using setInterval, and when the tab is minimized it doesn't log out the user when they're idle.

    Ive read a couple articles about whats going on and why, but haven't really found anything with a workaround for this use case.

    Any help with the issue would be awesome!

    Should you add a skill in your resume even if you're not that good with to broaden your employment opportunities, or do the employers think that you are BSing if you add too many skills?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 05:29 AM PDT

    This is an issue where I cant really decide what to do. Eg. If you've worked with a database, say Postgressql, should you add it in your resume even if you're not an expert by a stretch?

    Image compression ELI5

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 10:32 AM PDT

    Having a lot of trouble understanding how to include images on a webpage in a compressed format, all preloaded - it's a simple flask app

    I tried using JPEG 2000 converters over png or jpeg and it just seemed to make the files bigger?

    Would love to understand what's happening/how this works/best practices given the above constraints.

    Why do template engines create Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) objects when compiling to HTML instead of parsing the document and string-manipulating its content to generate HTML?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 09:28 AM PDT

    EDIT: I think I got the answer for the question. The use case for template engines is more complicated than I initially thought.

    Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I was looking into source code of some template engines. It seems that the general approach is to parse the document and create an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) object, which would then be used to generate the HTML.

    It made me wonder why it's necessary to do that instead of parsing the document, and doing string manipulation to generate the HTML? Is this really stupid and I'm missing something very clear?

    Suppose we look at mustache.js anyways (assuming it works the same; I didn't look at their source code). Parsing the document and detecting {{ would invoke a function that replaces the variable with the content that should be there.

    If we look at pug, the beginning of the line is a tag name, so I would turn that into a tag name <div> for example, and append </div> where it ends. It will probably be a recursive function to take care of the nesting, but it still seems easier than the AST approach.

    Is there a major flaw in the approach I am thinking of that would make it go wrong? Or cause big performance issues?

    Do I even need an API Gateway (e.g. Apisix, Tyk)?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 08:36 AM PDT

    I am making a graphQL server for my SPA and deploying on DigitalOcean. I am trying to secure it, enable throttling and prevent unauthenticated users from calling the API and all that, but...

    It just seems like a total pain in the ass to set up. I can't afford AWS or another managed services provider like that with my margins (I make about $0.10 per every dollar my customers spend before taxes and expenses).

    Is there a downside to just having the client call the API directly?

    Edit: worth mentioning that I would be using JWT and not API keys, just to place extra emphasis on this being a backend for a webapp and not an API that people call for their own purposes

    How do you trap external webhook requests for services that call your service?

    Posted: 02 Aug 2021 07:36 AM PDT

    I'm trying to integrate my app into Zapier using webhooks. I don't have access to get the request directly to my dev system.

    How can I develop for integrations like this where the 3rd party app initiates the request?
