I'm really starting to get into Angular JS. I here from my professors in college and from researching job openings that it is in high demand at many web-dev jobs and it is pretty fun to use. I've already made a couple of Ionic apps for Android/Iphone and am quite happy with the results.

Also smug anime girl with a condescending smile for anybody browsing this thread that doesn't think Javascript is the future.

Does anyone know of any open source projects that need unit tests written? I am looking to practice my JavaScript test writing and would like to contribute to something instead of throwing it away.

It will turn out to be another fad like all the previous hipster languages. And very good because javascript is mistake. And no, all those new versions don't make it not shit.

Got 3k usd of contract work today through Upwork.
Feels good man.

One of them is refactor 2k lines of js to es5 for a fucking grand. Love freelance.

>>60072656
Angular isn't a fad. It's like the only js framework that didn't die besides jQuery.

Yes, I think React is dying. Yes, Meteor is long dead.

>>60073451
How long did you have to work at 3 dollars an hour before getting that? Serious question. I got denied constantly because I was too expensive (at 15/hr which was good money at the time).

How do I check how much JS my site is using?

what sort of info can I get about the user's computer if they visit my site? can I see their MAC address? Does using cookies give me greater insight into their system?

Regardless of anyone's opinion on JavaScript, let's all just admire this post for a minute

Angular is a "language" and modern frameworks are "new versions" of JavaScript. These two idiocies are tied together with the "was a mistake" meme.

This is the average /g/ user: they've heard the words before but have no idea what they mean.

>>60074789

It's fucked. I have more skills in development than the average American and I can write clean and efficient code. Why is it so hard to find remote jobs that hire foreigners? If you paid me $2,500 usd a month I'd be making serious money where I live (South America).
Instead of paying your US devs $100k a year, pay me $50k and I'd be happier than a pig in mud.

It's not that complicated imo. All the frameworks I'm aware of offer the same stuff with different syntax. Just take a stab at one like Angular and you'll have the mode of thinking (way different than jquery) of how to work with a framework

I don't understand why people won't pay for online learning materials. I jumped tutorial to tutorial learning what felt like nothing until I finally got a free trial on a paid site.

If you want to learn something (especially newer technology), the paid route is best imo

>>60080994

Learn Angular2 with Typescript instead. AngularJS is basically legacy code at this point. Plus Typescript > Javascript.

IMO Typescript is going to be the next big thing in web dev. It's way less of a clusterfuck than JS is.

>AngularJS is basically legacy code at this point
mmmm, no
https://www.indeed.com/jobtrends/q-angular2-q-angularjs.html

>>60081229
also, have you ever even used typescript on a real project? I have. It's not a gift from heaven. It's useful if you build tools for other devs so that they can have better intellisense on your product, and it can be useful if you're an end user of that product. But it's not useful on my project. We built a ~130 screen app with around 70 different models. Typescript only got in our way really, and if we would have typed all of those models, I don't think we'd be done yet. Who would we be typing them for, and for what purpose? It just didn't make sense to have ts on the project.

>>60081486

Can someone tell me how a language like TypeScript is better than plain JS ? I know "muh types" but how do types help you if you are just manipulating DOM-Nodes and stuff like that. I dont need types just to append a div into another div...

>>60081884
>https://www.indeed.com/jobtrends/q-angular2-q-angularjs-q-react.html
that's locating number of times "react" is used in a job description. "React" has other uses than to describe the framework. A more accurate result would be like this:
https://www.indeed.com/jobtrends/q-angularjs-q-reactjs.html

>>60081540
My company is about to dive into a rewrite of our enterprise applications using Angular with Typescript. We have about 400 tables in our db. Do we have to create a model for each one to use it on the client side??
Also, we plan to use AoT, so while we would have to write, the compiler will remove anything that ultimately doesn't get used.

>>60080453
hahahaahahahahahah capitalizing cultural marxism ! what a genius .

>>60081966
Two cases where ts is going to be useful to you:

1. You're going to be handing this app off to other devs downstream who are going to hook into pieces of your app
It's going to be useful to them because they can see if they're hooking into it correctly or not. When they initialize a new object type, they get a list of constructor parameters as they type. They get big red lines saying they're doing it wrong if they do it wrong.

2. You use the crap out of a lot of your models.
If you're using some of those types again and again, it's going to be useful when updates come along to see the red lines under things that break when a model changes. But if types are only used once or twice, like it was in our app, it's going to be a waste of time. The search feature of your IDE will be all you need.

You don't have to create models for anything. You can just initialize things to a type of "any", but ts will get in the way very frequently. You're going to find yourself writing code to go around ts more often than you're actually using it. That's what we did

So I believe I have some good ideas for a website. I want to get started on making it right away. But I fear my ideas could easily be stolen and used on more popular website. I won't let this fear stop me before I even begin, but it's something I want to be prepared for.

I have virtually no web development experience, but I want to make it by myself. It's a big challenge. I do have graphic design experience, I'd figure out how to tweak it to look good. It's the coding languages and all the stuff you need YEARS to learn. I'd be teaching myself as I work on it. I could see much more experienced developers swiping it and making it 1000x better.

Not sure what they expect from a trial day, I'd wager the first 5 hours will be setting you up.

Knowing git would be a great way to give a good impression. A senior dev will be expecting to set up your key and repositories for you, if you can do big chunks of this yourself it'll look good. Unless they use SVN in which case you're fucked. If they use neither, you don't want the job.

>>60088661
>>>60088595 (You)
>how long did you self-learn for before you got the job?
About two years; I had a full time job and dragged my feet a little on the job search though. If you don't have a job you could easily learn what I did in a year.

>Also, what resources did you use?
I went in only knowing html/css, started with a bunch of Codecademy tutorials and learn Python the hard way. Made an attempt at CS50X on my own and gave up after like lesson 3. Built some crummy apps on Cloud9 DE. Then I took CS50X as a live-instructed course through LaunchCode. This was incredibly helpful. Built a final project and was accepted by LaunchCode as a candidate, went to their monthly meetups, took their advice, kept building on my final project, making it more refined. It was an instant messaging web app. Didn't get placed through them though, found a job myself.

>Lastly, whats the most important thing you learned from teaching your self to code?

Don't get tied down to learning one specific set of skills right off the bat. It just matters that you take time every day to try to learn something. Programming is learned through osmosis. Stay persistent, don't set a hard deadline, and you will learn.

I wound up getting a job by applying to dozens. I took my laptop to the interview and demonstrated my CS50X project to the development manager. He liked my enthusiasm enough to hire me.

I have been using fcc and I have heard many people get jobs without even finishing all of the sections. I plan on studying for a year and see where i am at, then consider going to a bootcamp.

>>60088926
If you want to network, look into meetups. There are tons of tech meetups and they can really help you get out there. See if there's a local tech or web development Slack group also.

>>60088975
I was thinking about that as an alternative, thanks. I also plan on arranging fcc study groups or something. Heck, maybe even make a small project with some people for our portfolios. Also is it feasible to freelance or should I get a job and learn the industry first? I want to freelance for a couple of years and travel at the same time. Location independence is one of the biggest appeals of web dev, at least for me.

>>60089031
Organizing fcc meetups is a great idea. That'll put you in the spotlight, the guy with drive. Collaborating on a project sounds smart and fun, too.
I'd consider what I'm learning on the job invaluable. I'm getting tons of experience with the tools. Learning things I wouldn't have on my own. I think a traditional job is the way to go, at least at first. After a year or two I probably won't shy away from a remote job.

Still don't know shit about shit, which is why this question might not make a lot of sense. I'm just curious.

>>60089848

Nah. If you're just a hobbyist then I don't see why you'd need to learn another web app framework if you already know Rails. Anything you feel like doing you can do with Rails.

I would recommend against PHP if you're not interested in making money from it.

>>60089848

However, Node could be useful if you are itching to learn another web server. It's more flexible than Rails or PHP and is definitely preferable for some use cases.

If you have a blockquote next to a floated image, the width of the parent is set first without taking the image into account.
The content of the blockquote is then reflowed around the image without/instead of resizing the parent.

>if you code golf on production you should kill yourself.

Sounds like you've got a story you want to tell.

i got a php assignment from my prof, basically it's bandcamp.com clone, i know some rails but i dont know shit about php
so where do i start?

Learning django currently. Let's say I define a model:

class Course(models.Model):
course_title = models.CharField(max_length=150)
course_description = models.CharField(max_length=150)

def __str__(self):
return "%d %s" % (self.id, self.course_title)

and when I use object relational databse API like this it prints id:

Course.objects.all()
>> <QuerySet [<Course: 1 Math>]>

My question is how come it magically prints id, even if it was not explicitly defined in a class Course? Is it because when a particular class is instantiated an implicitly made id from database is set to be its instance attribute? Is this calling of implicitly defined variable bad programming?

>>60095676

Learn how to CRUD then just go from there

>>60095794

Never used djanjo but it looks like the id is the primary key, yes

>>60095968
yes. it's primary key, first a model is created, then migration occurs, and the id is auto generated if not explicitly defined. Thanks.

>>60095794
what resources are you using to learn django? I'm with the book Tango with Django, can be found on libgen. Pretty good book so far

>>60096223
I'm not reading any book, just doing official django tutorial, and exercising by making a simple CRUD of my own along the way.

>https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/intro/tutorial01/

But thanks for recommendation. I hope a book will be a little more down to earth. I'm new to programming in general, so some things are still murky.

>>60093236
Yes, open your browser console (probably with f12) and stick this in there

var myMessage = "Hello World";
alert(myMessage);

That's how easy JS is

>>60093236
Javascript itself is like the wild west of programming. Almost no rules, no structure. But people love their fancy websites so that's where Angular and React come in to try and build some patterns.

Working with django. Should I just use SQLite since it comes with the framework, or should I switch to another SQL-type thing? It's for a scraping project, hoping to get maybe up to 10 entries on my database

i dont consider myself an expert in development or anything yet but you probably shouldnt be applying these things to your body...

yuck.

Hey guys, can you tell me why on freecodecamp no challenges about photoshop ? its realy dont need for frontend ?

So i have 2 functions that need to do some db stuff, how can i include this in both of them

<?php
$db = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=vcc;charset=utf8mb4', 'root', 'toor',
    array(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => false,
        PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION));

I tried to create separe function like

public function db()
    {
        (new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=vcc;charset=utf8mb4', 'root', 'toor',
            array(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => false,
                PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION)));
    }

and use it like

public function dbCheckHash()
      {
          $stmt = $this->db()->prepare("SELECT * FROM done WHERE hash=?");

but that is not working, i dont want to paste db connect code in every function

>>60099416

ive never seen those styles applied to a body and i definitely dont see the point in height: 100%

use this as a starting point:
https://jsfiddle.net/2bnus9n9/

>>60099455

i get it, but you dont need to use django for this, but whatever do what you want

>>60099610
I'm using django just cause I'm trying to learn it, so this is my little project for that. Anyways, I'd like to hear your opinion. Why not Django, and what else should I use? Just trying to learn here, so your answer will be appreciated.

>>60099610
not him but what would be the best option for this task. Also what is Django more suited towards instead

>>60099586
Frankly, Your fiddle sucks. It uses fixed height on header and footer. But my footer is of dynamic height. Those styles are working fine in every browser that supports flex.

>>60099546

you could either connect to db on load and keep the connection going, though some dont like that method so they connect and disconnect each time they communicate with the db. The difference is establishing the connection in a function and just calling it everytime you plan to do something with your db

connectToDb();

or have it a file and "require" the file:

require_once "config.php";

>>60099586
>>60099673
By "working fine" I mean everything except for the image on the body. It works using ONLY min-height:100vh. That however, creates issues on mobile browsers because of their fucking stupid behaviour which does not respect vh as they render their shitty interfaces above.

>>60099638

i dont recommend any frameworks for learning programming/developing. Those things are for after you know what youre doing. Djngo is in Python right? So i'd start with Python

>>60099649

i dont know - you could scrap with a lot of different languages. If Django has a built in scraper or something then sure use it. The more you use a vanilla language the more you will learn, though.

>>60099673

yeah, well im not doing your project for you. If you want to apply 100% height to your body element, be my guest. Good luck.

>>60099797
lol don't mean to be rude, but I don't think you have any idea what you're talking about. Django is python, yes, and I already know python. Django is a web framework built on top of Python, and that is exactly what I'm trying to learn. All of the coding is done on Python, and then just displayed through Django. That is the part I'm trying to learn, how to build a website that displays the data I get.

>>60099855

>That is the part I'm trying to learn, how to build a website that displays the data I get.

um - ok. I still don't get why you need to use django to do something as simple as display data from a db. Your asking "should i use this or that" and it's hard to answer because you could use a lot of things...the phrasing of your question is weird. If you want to use django then yes you can do this with SQLite. Shouldn't you have already decided to use SQLite since it comes with the almighty django already? I don't know whats stopping you.

I'm asking whether sqlite is ok to use, or whether I should go with another database like MySQL, Postgresql or any of those.

I normally code in C#, I use .NET for web dev. I know how to use Python vanilla, and now I'm trying to learn Django. What's so hard to understand about that? I can do HTML/CSS/Python/Flask for a site, but I want to learn Django. That's all.

>>60088275
Late reply but got confirmation about the whole not getting the offer thing.

>Interview for what position
Technical Front-End Dev. They wanted someone who could effectively rips a PSD and make it into a website.

>Requirements
Vanilla JS/CSS/HTML with at least some knowledge of jQuery and React for in the future.

>Skills
I've learned how to be a full stack dev over the year and a half that I've been learning and I have an okay grasp on JS (Enough to win every single fucking stupid coding competition at the fucking incestuous coworking space I go to over devs.) as well as Python/PHP.

>Questions
Seriously, it was the basic, "What have you worked on?","How did you learn this?", "Can you add a click event to a couple of divs?", nothing beyond beginner level, but the fact that their was actually three interviewers instead of one really threw me off and made me paranoid. They were straight up no bullshit, "we're checking everything right now" types as well. I just went full retard socially and didn't do the whole confidence game as good as I could have. I also probably didn't explain the why as well as I could have behind the answers I gave. I also noted the Great Wave off of Kanegawa on the monitor behind me, so yeah, that didn't help. I already knew that they weren't interested about halfway through the interview and that there was nothing that I could do to salvage it.


But seriously, I fucking give up. This is like the third interview I've fucked up and unless I go full ham and devote even more of my whole life to it, I will likely never get a job. You shouldn't give up of course, but I have. I've put way too much time and effort into learning this for no payback and I would have been better off working at the local carwash, construction, or fucking GameStop.

I don't get why you have to be such a dick. You have to understand that for most of my time doing web design/development was in the early 2000s before that stuff was normal. Everyone was using tables to aligns stuff, myself included.

I've learned the difference between CSS displays probably a dozen times and I just don't use it enough to remember.

It's like regular expression. I learned how to do that a dozen times too but I only use it once every year so I forget it.

Trying to create a simplistic progress bar sort of thing in HTML/CSS. It just consists of a background texture (for unfilled), a foreground texture (for filling) and text.

The background element was simple enough to do, but getting the foreground elements to layer properly and scaling the texture on the foreground bar is not so much. I haven't done this kind of stuff in quite a while so I'm rusty as hell. I just want to get this shit working.

What am I doing wrong, and how do I make it right?

CSS:

.bar      { width: 100%; height: 20px; max-width: 1000px; background-image: url(images/bar-bg.png); background-size: 100% 100% }
.bar_fill { height: 20px; background-image: url(images/bar-fg.png) }

HTML (generated):

<div class='bar'>
    <div class='bar_fill' style='width: 100%'></div>
    100%
</div>

>the foreground texture needs to scale with the width of the parent (background) element while also cropping the texture according to fill percentage, and also be layered in front of the background texture
>the text needs to be centered within the bar and layered in front of the fill texture

Pic related is what the generated page is spewing out right now.

So I got laughed out of /dpt/ after explaining that I'm using electron.

Anybody have any experience with any electron apps? I'm trying to get it working with react + webpack + babel and I'm confused af.

I've never done any webdev before so the build process is really throwing me off.

So I started a project a couple of months ago and decided to try out Ember instead of React (which I've been using exclusively for the past couple of years).

Ember is amazing. I highly suggest you guys check it out.

Today I worked on setting up a proper integration server for the team I'm in.

Our main product is a Django site used by our department (medical field), and most of the team has been working on a large, still unreleased feature for the past several months. This led to one guy doing all fixes and minor features for the live site, and everyone else doing work on a separate branch on what used to be another guy's local dev environment.

(When I was hired, the feature branch hadn't pulled in the live changes for about 3 months and 600 commits. I turned out to be the best at git so I got to do that merge - it was !fun!)

Anyway manager greenlit me to make a proper integration server that everyone uses and give that one guy his environment back so we made a clone of the production server to start it from. I crack open its commit log and realize that a) the dev doing the hotfixes and minor features has been doing almost all of it on the the "production" branch (in his local environment at least) and b) something must have been committed on the production server at some point because apparently every time it pulled it made a merge commit (and because it can't push, it will ALWAYS need to merge). This means there are at least a couple hundred unpushed merges now on the cloned machine I'm trying to set up, and most of them are probably useless and empty but at least one of them probably isn't.

And while this is super ugly, I don't even know if anything needs fixing. I could merge and push the extraneous merges. Maybe that would allow the prod server to do ff pulls again. Or I could squash all the commits made since the inane merges started into one "fuck you" commit and rebase it onto the remote prod. Or I could rebase the local prod onto the remote prod (which seems to simply move the branch and creates no commits, which is beautiful and might be just what i want but I have no idea how 172 commits can make literally no changes.

debugging it is hell because we're in early development and our json schemas aren't set in stone yet, so most of our errors are stupid shit like: trying to use a key to get a value from an array, trying to call forEach() on a number, trying to pass an evaluated function where a callback is expected (passing the return value instead of the function pointer in C terms), etc.

i assume that TS would make finding/fixing these kinds of errors much more straightforward than "run the code, oh it just returns nulls? log variables in the console until you find the error." (inb4 unit tests, i fucking WISH nigger, i'm working on it).

>is JSX like TS?
not really. similar in that it's its own language that compiles to JS, is all.

this is my understanding, pls correct me if i'm wrong:

JSX is a way of specifying virtual DOM using HTML-like syntax. A JSX component is a representation of part of a webpage and it LOOKS almost like HTML but it's not; it's parsed into a JS object before being used. This allows the definition of various functions and watchers and hooks that can change the object, or watch it for changes. Then there is another parser that can take this JS object and create the actual HTML that it represents - so on some schedule, the real bit of the webpage that corresponds to this object gets updated to match whatever the current state of the object is.

This way the developer can write the layout of a component using familiar HTML syntax, but can manipulate its data as a native JS object (and updating the real HTML happens automatically).

i don't know what i was thinking when i took that screenshot, i should've just included the bottom part because you need the three casts to make that function work

there's also a bug in the type definitions being worked around there: DocumentFragment.cloneNode() returns a Node instead of a DocumentFragment because it inherits the method from Node

there are other things wrong with the type definitions too: someone on github said people were complaining about having to cast too many things so they made the types for all node subclasses very html-centered which makes doing things with xml/svg elements fucking awful

They're teaching us Rails at school, and it's nice enough, but I want a job when I graduate, and it isn't getting any more popular.

I'm familiar with JavaScript: the language. That isn't the hard part. What should I learn if I want to, say, replicate what I can do in Rails?

JavaScript: the clusterfuck honestly scares the shit out of me.

>>60107886
Hey, I saw that.

>>60110165
I've never understood the purpose of Code

>>60112646
writing code

i think

>>60112737
but why not just plain VS? Why VS Code?

>>60112556

The popularity of stacks depends a lot on where you live. So if you are only in it for the bucks, just look for some popular frameworks and count the results.
Or just look for "web developer" and see what technologies are in demand.

But in the end Rails is not a bad place to start, it is very beginner friendly. You could start with Django or something differnt, it doesnt really matter.

It's more about learning what happens inside your website, the differnt frameworks process things slightly differnt, but the basic principles are more or less the same.

Let's say you learned Rails, where the controllers are super important and powerfull. And then you learn something like Ember, the controllers are bsically redundant (or at least not very important). But then you realize that the same things happen, just at a differnt place.

Of coure it's a little bit more complicated. But you should focus on the differnt trends too much or glorify certain langauges. JavaScript is a must, so you better get in knees deep. Just think about JS as a "LISP light", maybe that will make it more tasty for you.

But the rest is more or less a matter of personal preference..

anyone able to explain this behavior?

the highlighted big words are each divs that contain a word with no spaces. When I highlight and copy it and paste it into the address bar, it pastes with no spaces - but when pasted into the search bar, it pastes with spaces. Why the difference in paste behavior? Can I control whether it copies with spaces or no spaces?

>>60113618
DIV is block level, usually a linebreak (whitespace) is added after each DIV. How did you align them? Float or display?

>>60113672

.WordWrap {
  min-width: 0%;
  max-width: 95%;
  width: auto;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  display: flex;
}

.IndvWord {
  margin: 2px;
  padding: 3px;
  font-size: 4rem;
  display: inline-block;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  max-width: 100%;
  -webkit-hyphens: auto;
  -moz-hyphens: auto;
  -ms-hyphens: auto;
  hyphens: auto;
}

>>60113709
I cannot tell you WHY this happens. But it's got something to do with semantics as I told you. If you replaced all div.IndevWord with span, there would not be any whitespace when pasting

>>60113931
yeah that's good enough honestly. thanks

>>60113709
>display:flex;

probably the reason. Flex has pretty bad browser support and has a shit load of bugs, partially because they had 3 or 4 major rewrites to the spec, and partially because they are forcing a brand new display type that then has to play right with all the others.

God forbid you ever, say, put a flex in a table. You'll get a million bugs.

>>60113963
You're welcome.

Don't listen to >>60114003

There are bugs, but your usage is fine and flex is ready to use (if you want, you can include workarounds for older browsers. I don't).

We just use Bootstrap, no point wrestling with CSS beyond a few custom rules for presentation.

Anyone here familiar with Elixir? Having an Ecto problem and didn't get a response on the IRC

Can you explain something to me /wdg/, feeling dumb
So I wrote a couple websites, css/js/html, occasional bootstrap, everything seems fine. But I don't really dig writing pure html, it's hard to manage, I don't like that browser doesn't tell me where I forgot to close <div> for example, I want to write loops and use variables, arrays, data structures and other shit.

That's where backend thing comes into play, right? Sorta? I write, let's say, a php script instead of a html document and now I can use power of programming language instead of markup language.

What if I don't want web server to process php/js/whatever on the fly but want it to render pure html that was generated by my code beforehand? Is that a thing?

I don't really want to use a fancy engine right now, kinda want to understand how everything started back in the day

>>60116128

Remeber this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomicity_(database_systems)

But what he said is better, rather than storing with a special char separator in a single string, use JSON instead

>>60116128
JSON is string so it's easy to store.

>>60116164

>An example of an atomic transaction is a monetary transfer from bank account A to account B. It consists of two operations, withdrawing the money from account A and saving it to account B. Performing these operations in an atomic transaction ensures that the database remains in a consistent state, that is, money is not lost nor created if either of those two operations fail

well duh. What other way would this be done...?

Just started learning HTML5 and CSS from w3schools a couple days ago. This shit looks so easy.

I think I can make a functional responsive static site within a few days for a friend's business. (Just some pictures of his business, location, contact info, etc )

For this project I will be purchasing a linux VM for $16/yr

Specs :

1GB RAM
1gigabit/ 2TB monthly bandwidth
20GB Storage


Is my approach to learning WebDev efficient?

Surely there's a better way to get the 4th parent element than this?

views[i].parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement

>>60116464

thats cool and all but you'll just end up being a front end babby aka barely employable unless youre doing just projects for friends who happen to just want a static website. You're basically saying "i wanna be a car mechanic, just learned how to change tires. did i make it?"

>>60116623

// not tested but i hope it works
function selectAncestor (element, selector) {
    var parent = element.parentElement;
    if (parent === null || parent.matches(selector)) {
        return parent;
    }
    return selectAncestor(parent, selector);
}

selectAncestor(views[i], ".whatever.selector.matches.it");

>>60116700
Thanks, learned something. making a new function is probably not worth it in this case though, I just wondered if there was a JS function like "nthParentElement(4)" that I didn't know about.
I don't really know JS, but I want to remove the recommended videos on youtube with a userscript. Here it is, if you have any recommendations about a better coding style or better ways to do it let me know:

// ==UserScript==
// @name        Remove Recommended Youtube Videos
// @namespace   Awa
// @description Removes videos that display "recommended video" instead of the number of views.
// @include     https://www.youtube.com/watch*
// @include     http://www.youtube.com/watch*
// @include     www.youtube.com/watch*
// @version     1
// @grant       none
// ==/UserScript==

var views = document.getElementsByClassName("view-count");
for (var i = 0; i < views.length; i++)
{
  if (isNaN( views[i].textContent[0] ) === true){
    views[i].parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.setAttribute("style", "display: none;")
  }  
}

>>60116144
It's honestly the most enjoyable job I've ever had. Constantly learning and building. Requires real creativity. End product might not exactly be exciting all the time, but the work is enjoyable.

>>60116800
i'd do something like this:

var related = document.querySelectorAll(".video-list-item.related-list-item");

for (var i = 0; i < related.length; i++)
{
  var views = related.querySelector(".view-count");
  
  if (views !== null && isNaN( views.textContent[0] )){
    related.setAttribute("style", "display: none;")
  }  
}

basically just loop through all the related videos, then select its view count element in the loop

i'd help you better if i wasn't kinda busy and could get youtube to show me any recommended videos (i don't use the site much so i guess there are no recommendations for me)

>>60116631
Well I figured I would take baby steps. My background is being a jr SysAdmin.My only prior related experience is powershell scripting random tasks.

After this I'm not sure which direction to go. I'm assuming learning JS is next. PHP? SQL? I would love to create Webapps that imitate some of the features cPanel/Plesk does.

Omfg, this is so cool... Like this is something I would be interested in developing.

when you get something from URL in php, for example
?video=videoname
and you need to use that in your app, how do you secure it? Like stop someone from injecting something via that
i just add trim(strip_tags( but i dont think that is best solution
>it is not used for database btw

>>60117080

if you use PDO and proper security techniques you should be able to prevent all SQL injection. Also know when to use GET vs POST

>>60117080
>and you need to use that in your app
use how?
use what, the url or the response?

>>60117115
>it is not used for database btw

>>60117126
for example, you are watching video on url
?video=videoname and you have option to cut it/convert etc, ill get video name from url and send it to function for converting/cutting

Depends what you are using it for. There is htmlspecialchars for putting it to html, urlencode for using in url. Avoid unneeded/wrong escaping like urlencode for database storing. Ideally all escaping would be done automatically by framework/library.

It's referring to the transaction feature of SQL databases. The "default" might be to run two SQL update queries: one to withdraw account A and another to deposit to account B. Instead, you can wrap the two commands in a transaction, so that if one of them fails for some reason, the entire transaction aborts and doesn't change the balances.
