    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 02:52 PM PDT

    Hi /r/webdev

    I'm sharing my budgeting app I made inspired by Simple Bank's (RIP) budgeting features. The aim is to be easy to use and pretty without a bunch of clutter, based on envelope budgeting.

    Application: https://beta.avafinance.io

    I'm a DevOps Engineer professionally but love development and make side projects in my free time. This is the first full stack app I've released to the public.

    Am down to answer any technical questions about the stack or whatever else, and appreciate any feedback you have on the app!

    Technical

    Frontend

    • Sveltekit
    • Bootstrap

    Backend

    • Strapi
    • SQLite (will update this sometime, but working well for now)

    Authentication

    • Firebase (custom api to get this working nicely with Strapi) and the new v9 modular sdk in sveltekit

    Infrastructure

    Other

    • Containerization for both frontend and backend
    • Azure DevOps for CI/CD and repos
    • Sentry for application monitoring and performance, tracing (I'll be writing a blog post soon for how to set this up in strapi)
    • Adobe XD for mockups
    • Ping Companion for uptime monitoring (found this on reddit a couple days ago)
    • Unicorn Platform for the landing page, was using UMSO but unicorn was a lot cheaper

    Wordpress vs Firebase+Next.js for multiple web apps (wish I was joking)

    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 12:45 PM PDT

    Hi, I'm a first-experience web-dev, and I've been hired (a year ago) by a small company. The "it department" is basically me and the senior developer. I actually have a degree in physics so I had mostly experience in heavy duty development (data analysis, simulation), and minor web-dev experience, moslty static.

    I have heavy doubts about the direction the company I'm working in is taking, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something important, so please bear with me.

    The long-term project I was hire for consists of multiple web apps that share authentications and some user data between them.

    When I first got in the job it was announced to me that we would use Wordpress at first as we needed to move fast for the first app and the senior wanted to "keep it safe". I wasn't super keen on that (didn't seem the right tool for the job) but what do I know, doing things fast means making compromises, and he's the expert one.

    Developing the first app (months of development), I started suspecting I spent more time overcoming wordpress' limitations than was worth.
    I started documenting myself and tried re-doing the app using firebase+SvelteKit (had experience with Svelte) and boy I think I've nailed down most of the same features in 3 days.
    Now, sveltekit is still quite unsable (they're pushing breaking changes on a monthly basis), so if I had to propose such a stack, I'd go with firebase+Next.js (more support, more stable)

    Now, my opinion wordpress was really the wrong solution here, as we needed stuff like interactive views, thousands of active users, front-end CRUD capabilities, and I basically had to develop so much custom behavior.

    Just to give some more context, users need to participate in contests, upload videos if they'rea llowed to do so, be able to vote on said videos after they've been approved by hand, and keep a personal profile updated.

    I'd like to move everything to somethink more "readymade" (not necessarily firebase, but basically serverless), while my senior would like to keep wordpress and eventually migrating the platform to laravel, which atm looks to me like fully on the other side of the spectrum (we'd basically have to build everything from scratch, or so it seems).

    Now, is Firebase really as "easy and cool" as it seems to me or does it hide some nasty surprise? Or maybe Wordpress and alravel are more of a good fit than I give them credit for, some trick that makes them more bearable to work with? Maybe firebase would cost way more than an equally capable LAMP stack? Maybe there's something even better that we both didn't think about? Maybe it's more unsafe than I think to store user data on a third-party premise? I'd like to hear some opinions.

    Client demanding to resend 6 months old work

    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 11:40 AM PDT

    I did a one-time job in April. Not only I implemented this function in clients website but also taught him to replicate same function at other sites of him.

    Now this client contact me again, told me that he has lost all the code, and asking me to just send him the code again. He wasn't good at timely payment and respectful either.

    I asked him to pay a nominal amount for this support. Its been 6 months now. But he is demanding the code for free which he thinks I've saved somewhere (which is true). What should I do?

    I've created a new Facebook group called 'Developer Mindset'. For some reason there isn't a group for developers to be able to work on and learn how to better their mindset so that they can become more successful. I've decided to change that. It's still in the works, but I'm feeling good about it!

    Noob question about hosting

    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 08:09 AM PDT

    I'm familiar with the "traditional" hosting where you pay for a shared hosting and upload the html etc to their server + domain. But I'm looking more into headless cms like Strapi and I'm kinda stuck on how to host the front and backend and how to make the api request.

    My current hosting company does not support nodejs application but I can host normal website and React website. I did research a little bit and found that you can host Strapi on Heroku. I'm getting stuck around this point.

    • How does my frontend make api request to the Strapi application hosted Heroku?
    • How can my "client" get on the Strapi backend to use the CMS?

    My end goal is to make a React website with Strapi headless CMS, because I don't want to use wordpress anymore.

    Maybe Wordpress Rest API is also an option. I just don't want to use PHP anymore

    How to deal with SMS/chat apps visiting login links and expiring them

    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 02:58 PM PDT

    I have a very simple webapp where users can log in with a code that I generate and give to them manually. The nature of this app is that it is only for a few trusted people. For convenience I have made a login route like mysite.com/login/SOMECODE for them to click in SMS to log in with no trouble. From then on they are authed with a JWT.

    The problem is that when I text these links to people, they are immediately visited by the SMS app, I assume for a page preview, which expires them. The actual login is done by an ajax request so these probes are even running the javascript on the page.

    I wanted this page to just be a quick redirect. I have tried robots.txt and analyzing the useragents but robots doesn't help and there is nothing of note in the useragent. What can I do aside from not expiring the code or adding a button to the login page?

    Webdev-Progress

    Posted: 02 Oct 2021 02:15 PM PDT

    So i watched the 2h html tutorial and 6h css tutorial from codecamp on youtube and after that some seperate videos to understand grid and flex more. And to be clear, i didnt just watch them, i had vscode the whole time open, coded the examples and tried them out myself (same with grid and flex). I did all this in a matter of a week (worked/studied nearly the whole day).

    Before moving on to Javascript though, i wanted to see what im already able to do with html and css and noticed that while i made impressive progress, i still cant style websites as i want. I mean i didnt think that i would become a professional in a week, but what now? Should i just google websites and try to make them myself while searching up the things i dont know or do sth else? Right now im watching the "how to build your own portfolio website" - video from codecamp to learn not only how to do a portfolio, but to see what methods are used that i know or dont know of. So after that?
