This will give you your wished JSON. But it's a pleb tier solution that I just threw together.

$res = $stm->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
foreach($res as $data) {
    $items[] = sprintf("%d", $data['ID_RequestItems']);
    $id      = $data['ID_ReplacementOrders'];
}
$json = '{"order_id": "'.$id.'", "item_num": '.json_encode($items).'}';

I inherited the shittiest Ruby on Rails application ever.
The goal is to let users upload data and plot it.

They can upload the data in (x,y) pairs as follows:

[x1 y1; x2 y2; x3 y3; ... xn yn]

These points get stored in `@values` as shown:

`
@values = @data.split(";",-1)
@values.each do |value|
value.strip!
if !value.match(/\A\d+\.?\d*[eE]?[+-]?\d*\s+\d+\.?\d*[eE]?[+-]?\d*\z/)
add_data_values_error
end
`

That regular expression should accept numbers written in scientific notation or regular numbers, and reject other stuff. When I test that regex in online Ruby regex evaluators, it works exactly as expected.

However, in the actual application, it does not. In particular, the x values can NOT be written in scientific notation without causing an error (but the y values work just fine).

Can anyone help me figure out what the fuck is going wrong?

Bullshit.

Node makes me want to shoot myself.

I've tried the barebones Express way, and I'm currently trying the relatively full stack way via stuff like Meteor/Sails and I just can't wrap my head around it outside of some tutorials. There's like fifty different and incompatible ways for doing the same exact thing and it's driving me up a wall. How do you Node devs actually do anything with this?

how do?
this is laravel

I need some help.
Not good with SQL and very confused.
But I have a table which contains information as digits that I use as ids to other tables that hold their "names or meanings" along with that I have the need to get stuff from other tables and match it up by ids.
When I do my query, I get so many duplicates and odd combinations of the stuff I just wanted from start. What gives?

If you want to keep a domain name forever. Is it safe to use a .one domain?

Could you be clearer?
Can you post the definitions of your tables, your query, what you got, and what you expected?

>>59732965
You can do most. You should still learn JavaScript, even if you just want to make some functions that validates input or similar.

>>59729428
Personally I find the documentation to be rather good. What about it is it that you don't like?

I have 5 tables.
History
Info
Genre
Watcher
Role

table History has the following columns
history_id(int), date(Date), text(varchar), genre(int),info(int),watcher(int),role(int),active(bool)

table Info has the following columns
info_id(int), text(varchar)

table Genre has the following columns
genre_id(int), genre_title(varchar)

table Watcher has the following columns
watcher_id(int), watcher_firstname(varchar),watcher_lastname(varchar), role(int)

table Role has the following columns
role_id(int), role_name(varchar), active(bool)


What I want to do is make a query where I grab
Everything from the history and link onto the other stuff that it holds to, as in if I wanted to know the genre, right now I see only a digit but that digit represents the same digit at the genre table which has the text.

>>59733571

Stupid question:
Is removing the theme copyright thing on a wordpress site a good idea? Bad? What's the standard norm on this?

>>59734099
Copyright laws do not force you to credit anyone. You either have permission to use it or you don't, unless agreed upon on otherwise.

So in general, if they give people permission to use their theme and edit it, then you can just remove it. Unless it's licensed under a GPL or creative commons license, which is an agreement which requires attribution.

>>59733410
I think you mean foreign keys and you might want to look into LEFT JOIN and GROUP BY.

>>59734220
I know of foreign keys but I don't use them nor do I want to use them. It's a hassle to cascade

>>59734230
Seriously post a screenshot or something because we need to see your table structure if you want help.

>>59734253
I have stated the structure as above.

>>59734099
What's the licence on the theme?
Some licences do not require attribution, some do.

>>59734263
So you're this guy >>59733571?

>>59733571
Let's start by just doing two tables first:

CREATE DATABASE
postgres=# \c gmovies;                                                             ^
gmovies=# create table history (id int constraint pk primary key, date date, text varchar(2048), genre int, info int, watcher int, role int, active boolean);
CREATE TABLE
gmovies=# insert into history(id, date, text, genre, info, watcher, role, active)
gmovies-# values(1, '2017-12-23', 'A nightmare before grav-mass', 1, 1, 1, 1, true);
INSERT 0 1
gmovies=# select * from history;
 id |    date    |             text             | genre | info | watcher | role | active 
----+------------+------------------------------+-------+------+---------+------+--------
  1 | 2017-12-23 | A nightmare before grav-mass |     1 |    1 |       1 |    1 | t
(1 row)

So that takes care of our first table, with just one fictitious (but free as in freedom, and respectful of the viewers freedoms) movie.

Now we move on to the information:

gmovies=# create table info (id int constraint pk_info primary key, text varchar(2048));
CREATE TABLE
gmovies=# insert into info(1, 'A terrible tale of the Non-Free spirit of user enslavement, as told by acclaimed director Richard "Maestro" Stallman');
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "1"
LINE 1: insert into info(1, 'A terrible tale of the Non-Free spirit ...
                         ^
gmovies=# insert into info(id, text) values (1, 'A terrible tale of the Non-Free spirit of user enslavement, as told by acclaimed director Richard "Maestro" Stallman');
INSERT 0 1
gmovies=# 

What we want to do, is to grab movie #1, and join any row from info, where history.info matches info.id.

gmovies=# select * from
gmovies-# history inner join info on (history.info = info.id);
gmovies=# 

I have omitted the output, because it's massive.

Next we'll do the other tables.

>>59734308
Yeah.

I am dealing with some old stuff and the place doesn't want to phase out it to new stuff. So basically I am stuck "relearning" stuff I should have paid attention to before...

>>59734440
Complex queries in ORM can be even worse unless they support raw SQL which is weak shit

Alright guys, great looking general landing page, but for the noobs that show up: What does /wdg/ stand for? Are they supposed to guess it's "web development general"?

>>59734440
Because people are learning the underlying technologies to deal with this shit.

>>59734522
They're supposed to git gud.

Is golang great for webdev or just a meme

>>59734498
well shit good luck homie

>>59734517
are there performance advantages to express complexity on the db rather than on the application lvl ie in doing complex queries rather than fetching lots of tuples you'd filter out in the application ?

>>59734589
meme
java is the king

>>59734577
Spitballing, but instead of building people up we should tear them down so they don't compete for our jobs right? Plus we need bad developers out there to make meme fuel. You've convinced me.

>>59734316
Let's just create the rest of the tables:

CREATE TABLE
gmovies=# insert into genre (id, title)
gmovies-# values(1, 'Abject Horror');
INSERT 0 1
gmovies=# create table watcher(id int constraint pk_watcher primary key, firstname varchar(127), lastname varchar(127), role int);
CREATE TABLE
gmovies=# insert into watcher(id, firstname, lastname)
gmovies-# values(1, 'Terry', 'Davis');
INSERT 0 1
gmovies=# create table role(id int constraint pk_role primary key, name varchar(127), active boolean);
CREATE TABLE
gmovies=# insert into role(id, name, active)
gmovies-# values(1, 'Teaching kids about freedom', true);
INSERT 0 1
gmovies=# select * from                                                                                                                               history inner join info on (history.info = info.id) inner join genre on (history.genre = genre.id) inner join watcher on (history.watcher = watcher.id) inner join role on (history.role = role.id);
gmovies=# select * from
history inner join info on (history.info = info.id) inner join genre on (history.genre = genre.id) inner join watcher on (history.watcher = watcher.id) inner join role on (history.role = role.id);

Of course, the last select is a terrible fucking mess.
It's full of 1, 1,1, ... and we don't want that.
So let's just query out the specific things we want:

SELECT history.text as 'text', 
       history.date as 'date',
       genre.title as 'title',
       info.text as 'info',
       watcher.firstname || ' ' || watcher.lastname as name,
       role.name as role
FROM history inner join info on (history.info = info.id) 
             inner join genre on (history.genre = genre.id)
             inner join watcher on (history.watcher = watcher.id)
             inner join role on (history.role = role.id);

And you get all the information you want.
Note that the command to concatenate (or stick strings together) varies from database to database.

front end is cancer.

Hello, I have a question about an HTML/CSS issue I'm running into.

So I'm fairly new to the web design game, but I'm using DW and doing some simple text stuff on a page. Everything has been fine and dandy up until now. I've been keeping the live page up on one screen with the dev tool, inspecting the CSS and altering it how I see fit, then copying it into DW and putting it. Now, for whatever reason, the last CSS class that I made isn't being applied to the live site. The HTML is there, but the CSS isn't popping up on the Dev tool. It's written correctly, and I've even deleted it and rewritten it a couple times just to make sure.

Any reason for this to happen? Like I said, I'm fairly new to this stuff, but I've had no problems up until now.

>>59738706
post code.

Hey guys need some help. Started learning HTML/CSS a few days ago and thought
I had a good grip on it so I started learning Javascript today. But while testing a JS script
I encountered a problem with CSS regarding the hover interaction between classes. For some reason the class ="wtf" when hovered
doesn't want to display the image and text which are hidden. On it's own all the classes when hovered work (ex: background color).
Shit's confusing me.

Here's the code: https://jsfiddle.net/95qjyg9L/

>>59738876
your .help element isn't inside your .wtf element, so the .wtf:hover doesn't affect it.

>>59738907
yeah now i see. Thx mate, so this is where JS comes in handy, for unrelated elements.

>>59739016
css has a + operator for elements next to it, have a look at that.

            $table->string('title');

            $table->timestamps();

            $table->foreign('teacher')->references('id')->on('users');
        });

It's not the usual 'user_id'. I can either get an error for "Unknown column 'teacher_id'"
or "Undefined property: App\Course::$teacher"

like so (course.php)

public function teacher()
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(User::class /* , 'teacher' */);
    }

I've read so much shit on Reddit and elsewhere that leaves me feeling like I would never be anything more than a hack web dev without a standard cs background.

Is it worth it to try and get into this field without a degree or should I just take out loans for a comp sci bs?

Should I just fucking teach myself Haskell and take some MOOC comp sci courses? I don't want to be a fucking hack but shit how much of a math wizard do you really need to be to become a competent full stack dev?

My CSS is super rusty and I need to set a sidebar with a fixed position to a percentage of its non-fixed parent. The only way I can think to do this is through Javascript. How terrible of an idea is that? If it is, what other ways can I accomplish making a sidebar that takes up 100% of a viewport's height without setting its position to fixed?

If it matters, I'm using Bootstrap, and my sidebar and the adjacent content are both columns in a row. Their grid system uses percentage widths, which is why I'm having this issue to begin with

How do you guys load variables from router urls?

For example the url:

/plant/:category/:id

My method is check first if plants are loaded:

if (!plant === '')

Then check if :category variable exists:

if (!:category === undefined)

Then finally look for the id:

if (id exists in :category) {
load :id} else {
nothing found
}

Is this the proper way of doing it? Is it reasonable or noob-tier laughable? I spent the entire day thinking about nothing but this scenario. Maybe im just overthinking too much

>>59746674
You can either set the position to absolute or fixed to get 100% of the browser height.

Otherwise it's bad practice to do it through JS.

https://jsfiddle.net/6604dsye/1/

>>59747285
Is this react?
On your componentDidMount method you can access parameters.

let category = this.props.params.category;
let id= this.props.params.id;

How can I make a selected box unselectable if a radio button isn't checked ?
I have several radio button with one that allow the user to chose himself a couple of options.
Thing is when the other radio button are selected, the user can still chose in the options. I don't want that.

>>59748373
Or at least make the radio button automatically checked when the user clicks on one of the options.
Like in this page: http://crontab-generator.org/

>>59739150
1. Remove border-radius.
2. Add border box.
3. Ensure everything lines up properly i.e. 'reply to post' is larger than it's underlying inputs.
4. Why not make Browse / New reply inline by increasing the overall width, it looks awkward having one left orientated then one middle aligned.

That's just my opinion tho bby xoxo.

is bootstrap good or are there better alternatives nowadays?

>>59736754
i'm interested in learning by watching people develop things that interest me and talking about it, if you use a livestream upload the videos too so i can watch them later.

I have a question regarding performance. Right now I'm caching all my results from the database in the memory and it's crazy fast. I have a function that builds the sites html with the cached objects.

In development that's pretty useful because I see changes immediately but once I plan to release my stuff would it be a better practice to store the generated HTML than rebuilding it everytime?

>>59734440
ORMs suck, I've never seen one that isn't a leaky abstraction

how do I do this without the retarded foreach loop?

foreach ($user1->courses as $course) {
                return $course->teacher->id == $user->id;
            }

I tried
$user1->courses()->first(); etc etc but it just didn't work.
laravel things..

>>59749604
You need to understand what each element is.

$user1->courses()

is your relation (HasMany, belongsTo, etc).

$user1->courses

is your collection of courses for that user.

Collections do have a

first()

method indeed.

So

$user1->courses->first()

should work if everything's setup correctly.

>>59749321
You don't really need to worry about that to be honest.

There's two options
1. Use a front end JavaScript framework (i.e. React, Vue or Angular) and implement an API on your server side and have the client do all the rendering work by requesting and rendering data from the API
2. Use a templating engine like PHP (with Laravel), or Node.js Express framework with either EJS, Handlebars or Jade (I'm pretty sure that you're already using this)
3. Use a combination of both

>>59749816

return $user1->courses->first()->teacher->id == $user->id;

"Trying to get property of non-object"
course-user is many-to-many
user-teacher is one-to-many
what am I missing here?

>>59749884
I need to "find()" the course before I ->teacher->id? is that is?

>>59749884
I tried it in one of my Laravel projects and it works fine.
Your non-object error occurs for which part of your code? That's the non-object?

Also, if user has no course, you'll get null with first(), so you might want to check it beforehand, or you'll get the same error.

>>59749944
Just figured it was that.
So if I use the foreach it skips the nulls and that's why it works?
I think I'll settle with that

>>59749953
or actually I'll just turn the foreach into if after all huh

>>59749944

if ($user1->courses->first() != null) {
    return $user1->courses->first()->teacher->id == $user->id;
}

works
nice

>>59749953
It works, but it's terrible code, in my opinion, anon.
Laravel provides you a way to write clean code, you should keep a clean logic as well.

>>59738342
The comparison isn't against shitty php frameworks.
The comparison is against modern Java frameworks, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, or Ruby w/Sinatra, Python, etc.
Comparing .Net with the worst of its competition is a retarded concept and it convinces nobody.

>>59726029
No, it's pretty solid for common webdev scenarios. Most likely the best free DBMS. With some good extensions.
That said:
- the documentation isn't that bad, but not perfect either; it's often lacking direct examples
- there is no such well supported web interface as phpmyadmin for it

I really suck at everything related to this.

>>59750079
looks like you're using a css grid framework, just use it and put both buttons one the same row on different columns, then use paddings and vertical-align to make them exactly where you want them to be

>>59750079
Bootstrap?

>>59748540
Yeah, you can use either CLI to copy over stuff, or git push.

People who self taught

Did you find having a dedicated machine for learning helped you?

Thinking of buying a cheap laptop so I can take myself away from my PC and any potential distractions so I can get back into learning webdev

Take a look at the css grid system, you can build your layout like a table
getbootstrap com/css/

>>59750482
No. Actually funny thing, I wiped my PC just to install some linux distros in hopes I would not get distracted by games. That didn't work. Instead of gaming I was spending all this time fucking around, ricing, fixing basic problems, closing error alerts. What a mess.
So back to windows I went. Games are back on. But I'm more productive than ever now because I stopped taking people's bullshit advice of "learn the language first". It just doesn't work. What I do is I start learning the basics, you know get a feel for syntax and what to expect. Then I think of some small project, whatever, and work on building that thing. I learn along the way/through trial and error, and now I barely have any time to play games. Distractions can only distract you when you are bored, but when you're actually excited about a project distractions have zero effect. You can download a million programs and extensions/plugins to block any distractions, but you'll get around them because your mind is bored. Fix that and your problem is solved.

So no, you don't need a dedicated machine unless you're sharing your home PC with the rest of your family, in that case yes.

>>59747285
Here's my method. Its also prepared just in case user modifies the url:

loadCheck: function () {
      if (!this.$route.plant.category) {
        console.log("no category. load all plants");
      } else if (!this.$route.params.id) {
        console.log("no id. just load category");
      } else {
        console.log("load category then find id");
      }
    }, // end loadcheck 

>>59750936
Is there a shorter version of that code?
I remember seeing something like:

params: "rerere" ? id : "rereerer"

Your code works. Just wondering if anybody could shorthand it?

>>59750761
Mate this is wisdom, I can't believe I never thought about it like this.

I have a workspace on my PC that I like to use for development, now I just need to make sure I keep it interesting and I'll be good.

Thanks, man. Your words have helped me immensely.

Dear /wdg/, recently i started to learn CSS and javascript. In the meantime i've got few ideas about sites with using databases and i was just wondering - should i take break from javascript and deep dive into PHP + MYSQL for example? I s there any popular alternatives to that combo? Database is not that complicated or big, just basic relationships.

;tldr - should i learn PHP + MYSQL or there are some better paths?

>>59751660

why not all 3? in fact they go well together. My current project im working on im using js, php, sqlite.

>>59751660
Well, now that you can use JavaScript in backend, you don't need to go with PHP. You can keep learning Javascript and use it with Node or whatever later.

is Free Code Camp any good?
can you actually become a web dev by going through the course?

>>59751689
>>59751699
Thanks for answer, I'll go with basic PHP to do some databases operation i think, just thought there can be better (or modern) option.

PHP is not that old rusty elephant anymore. With PHP 7.1 you have a solid basis. It's just that the standard libary has a weird naming scheme sometimes.

If you want to do advanced things Laraval has you covered too. Go for it anon!

>>59753439

i tried this but all the columns got entered with the same data. Each row has its unique data, they are matched with the same id

>>59753493
multiple options.
give items a unique id or drop all of them from the same order and just reinsert with the new values.

>>59753511

i gave each item their own id yeah, i still dont see how that helps, sorry. i dont want to insert based off the unique id, need to do the order num. Works fine if we are just talking about 1 row that needs to be inserted

>>59753635
you have items with different values, but don't want to insert or update them based on their unique id but on their shared id instead.

you can't do that. maybe I don't understand your question.
post a sqslfiddle.

hello guys, i'm trying to build up an app to interchange filters names betwen different companies' s filters. The thing is that i have no communication with the IT part of the companies, and i only can access to their plataform (that performs the whole operation of interchange given a filter name) in their websites. The problem is i know very little web programming/ Networking i and have no idea how to start this thing out. would appreciate any help you guys could give me (good java tutorials, etc). Thanks.

>>59753945

ya im probably not explaining this right my bad

so i have a form that sends data to the server. some order data and data for each item

on save button, i save just the general order data in the orders table, then in the items table i want to save those items even if theres multiple items. Each item in the items table has a unique id, a column that matches the unique id in the orders table, and some other stuff unique to an item

on the "add item" button it inserts an item into the items table and gets assigned the correct order number that matches with that particular order. But now when they fill out the data for each item and hit save, how should all those items get saved?

any good Laravel free courses online?

>>59754991
when your items already have an id then you update them, otherwise it's a fresh insert.

>>59755102

so insert each item when they add an item? then have the save button save all the data? i think id run into the same problem. I need to UPDATE based on the order number but how would i do that if theres multiple rows that have the same order number? I think i fucked up my tables

>>59755183
>>59754991
>Each item in the items table has a unique id
you already have unique ids, update by those.

UPDATE items SET x = @y WHERE id = @id

and those which don't have an ID

INSERT INTO items (order_id, x) VALUES (@order_id, @y)

>>59755243

right but how do i know what the correct id in the items table? obviously it has to change too. Thats fine. I cant bind a variable. But how do i get the correct id

Not the guy giving SQL.

But, relational database. The clue is in the name.
>make a relationship
>use key to link tables

Having an order and an item table seems odd. Surely the order table would have items and details in it.

>>59755446

they have to be seperate. ORder table is just general data about the person, item tables has all the items added for every order

>>59755295
If you're updating items, you should be passing the item ID anyway. When you're populating a drop down or whatever, the value should be the id.

So, what does web assembly being finalized mean for web dev? Is everything I learned now outdated?

>>59755506
So order data is user data. Items is actually orders?
>your tables seem messed up

User.
>user details. registered or not
Order.
> has user, has items and item variable details like size
items
>shit that shouldn't be changed when ordering. Static as fuck. A pair of shoes is always the same. If the person orders 'black' shoes then it's stored in the order.

UsedID, OrderID, ItemID.
>all can auto increment and work together.

>>59755570

im not using the item id anywhere tho why would i need to pass it

>>59755654

i dont see the need for both user and order.

user info is in the order table and im not using any of the other data to match up with the items table. Like:

orders = order_id(PK): 1, name: bob, zip: 12345, etc
items = id(PK), item_num: 536, weight: 12, etc

>>59755295
no , the items id does not change.
you do not change that.
when the user saves, you post back the item id, then you know which item got updated

>>59755820

so after i insert i need to grab the unique item id it auto incremented? then post that back? same for 2nd and 3rd items, etc then use those unique id's to do the update?

>>59755902
no.
at this point I'm considering you a troll, no one can be this stupid.

>>59755918

lel

i r teh sux0rz :/

>>59755806
Use a table for each collection of data.

Storing order details like weight in the item details is way too complicated unless that weight is static or a variable.

Shoes example. Each shoe is size 10, has two colours and a stock level of 100.

Userid 001 = user 001's address n' shit

Itemid 033 = nike shoes, stock level 100 red, stock level 100 black, (extra shit like links to pics and a product description etc...)

OrderID 001 = Userid 001, Itemid 033, colour choice.


When the order is placed. All you have to do is update the stock level in the itemID 033.Call OrderID 001 and all the details will be there.

>>59755902
so your website has some information about an order with some form elements.
in there you have a list of items with more form elements.
each item has an id, if it's a new item, the id is 0.
the user now adds a few items, all with id 0 and then clicks save.

you receive the post data.
you check the order id, if it's 0 then you insert a new order and get the id it inserted.
if it's not then you check if the user has the rights to update it.
if he does, you update the order fields with a query based on the orders id.

then you loop through the posted items.
for each item, you check if the id is 0.
if it is, then you insert a new item using a query.
if it isn't then you update it based on the id it gave you with a query.

after everything is updated, you redirect the user to the details page, return the newly created data or just return 204.


though I personally would not give each item an id, but would use order_id and number as id instead. it reduces the amount of ids created and I wouldn't need to check if a user has rights to access it. but do whatever floats your boat.

How do I do that?

So I completed my site using XAMPP. All the functionality works, it is very secured as far as I know, ect.

I've been trying to understand how to launch my website and I'm very confused. Is there a good guide out there for the next step?

I imagine I need to buy a domain. If I'm planning to turn my website into a large business, do I also need to buy a trademark? I basically want to have a "copyright mycompanyname all rights reserved" at the bottom of my page legally.

Also, how to host my website? I would like to work with a database and structure than is as easy as XAMPP and myphpadmin.

Thirdly, can anyone provide me with some links to help me estimate how much it would cost me to operate my website? I'm hearing so many different ranges of price.

</ul>

So this search only works on my index.php page. The URL becomes index.php?search=foo if I enter foo into the text field and hit submit.

But let's say I'm on an article with a URL like this:

website.com/article/how-to

The same search bar is on this page, but if I search foo, it instead only searches the how-to article, as in:

website.com/article/how-to?search=foo

I want it to instead search index.php again like

website.com/index.php?search=foo

How do you deal with botnet spergs. If I create a website where users can upload content I need to log IPs just to make sure pedos are banned. If I don't the feds fuck me in the ass.

Why are spergs so retarded? Do they even know how networks operate? If they're so scared of devices logging a publicly available information they should go back in their cave and stay on localhost. Fucking spergs man.

>>59766698

Well you probably don't want to host from home so you need a hosting service. OP has a list of them.
Since you're doing basic php stuff anyways you might not even need a vps and could buy shared hosting, so hosting provider will manage mysql, php versions and various os stuff for you while you get access to db and file hosting.
Other option is get a vps and manage everything yourself, including firewall rules etc
Buy domain from whatever registrar and follow instructions from your hosting provider on how to use domain with your site. Some host providers even sell you domains.
Operating costs depend on traffic and site. Since your site doesn't seem like it'd need TB of storage, to do machine learning or whatever, cost really depends on traffic. You should be able to pick one of the lower tier offers from hosting provider (should be around 2-5€/month + domain name fee) and then upgrade your plan as you need it wihout having to reinstall everything.
You could get into details and ddos yourself to find out bottlenecks in your application and know how many requests you can handle before having to upgrde something, then programatically use host provider api to launch new db or site instances and whatnot

no idea on the trademark part, you should find a lawfag and ask him

memes aside, they have lots of projects and internal tools you can contribute too and they tag some of their issues as "easy first bug" for people wanting to get into contributing

otherwise just try to improve whatever small free project you are using (tt-rss, caldav server, self hosted trello clone ...) either by bugfixing, adding features or writing plugins if applicable

>>59766815
Just find an open-source project you like and often use, and slowly learn the code.

It takes some time with big and complex applications. You'll probably start with small fixes like typos, vulnerabilities, etc. But if you keep doing it, it will really give you experience for real life projects.

You seem to grasp the basics. SEO is basically inbound marketing. if youre being sincere which you sound kinda sarcastic the difficulty lies in fulfilling more than just the few simple aspects (see periodic table of SEO for the many facets). The $60/hr is actually extremely cheap considering you are potentially penetrating the top results on valuable keywords in your client's given industry. An industry where the competition has a 30-60K per month marketing budget.
