To the anon on the last thread who asked how much I paid for my Udemy course on webdev:

I got it on sale for $10. Really happy about that.

As soon as I finish my Google Analytics certification, my SEO training and my SalesForce cert, I'm gonna get cracking on this webdev thing

Question for you anons: What are some alternative trackers/analytics tools that someone like me (I'm working to be a full stack Marketer) can use instead of GA?

This one: https://www.udemy.com/the-web-developer-bootcamp/learn/v4/overview

I got it because I am a complete noob in the world of webdev, and have 0 programming skills. I was told this was a really good one, plus it gives a cert. It looks like the price has even gone up about $5 since I bought it.

My ultimate goal is to be able to setup website, manage the data and design content.

Post data isn't being sent from my ajax script to a php file.

Nothing prints out. The entry data, which is set to $id's value, is not being sent at all. After testing it a bit, I'm 100% confidant that the url is okay, so incorrect paths aren't an issue.

pic related is the code

>>61175188
GA is pretty much standard if you don't have a really high traffic website or one heavy on content. Piwik is another free solution however it is pretty limited

I want to get into full-stack a little, but backend technologies seems overall like slow limited crap. Mainly Node and Ruby so slow. Then I was introduced to this beauty and it really seems like superior choice and actually performs better. Am I in beginner's euphoria here? Actually worth to learn?

>>61177123
elixir is very nice, although it isn't really faster than node. that doesn't make it slow because I have no idea what basis do you have for the claim that node is "so slow".
elixir with phoenix would probably be my favourite thing for fullstack if java/kotlin with spring weren't so perfect. also there are very few jobs in elixir, at least in my city (one job posting site sample: 2 for "elixir", 88 for "java spring", 85 for "php", 66 for "asp.net", 3 for "rails", 6 for "django")

One thing I like about vue.js is it has it's own official router. Install it, set the route paths, and you're all set.

React.js doesn't have an official router. Only bullshit third-party routers that keeps on breaking changes on every update. I've spent the last 2 days refactoring react-router v3 to v4 and its frustrating. Seems like react-router developers are just trolling on each version release. Know of any good routers for react that isn't full of shit?

I have a simple, static website.

I would like to add a simple, basic contact form.

I do not want to use a third-party service like Formspree.

I am ambivalent about it using HTTP like Mailgun or SMTP like Gmail.

I would prefer it be implemented in Node.js, but Python would be ok too.

Reactjs still has no semi standard validation, routes as html tags <Route> are awkward.

is it possible to put multiple conditions in js and get true if at least some of them are true(more than 1) ?

>>61182133
Lookup truth tables

>>61182133
Just explicitly cast each condition to a boolean (by negating its negation with !!), add them up, and check whether the sum is greater than 1.

e.g.

if (!!firstCond + !!secondCond + !!thirdCond + !!fourthCond > 1) {
  // do the thing
}

I think that would work.

>>61187408

why would you not position the text absolutely if you know where it needs to be

>>61187571
breaks responsiveness

>>61187571
Because you should assume that the length of the text could change. If it's positioned absolutely then the outer box's size isn't reflective of the amount of text in the inner box, making responsiveness shit and maintainability shit, and will break when someone adds more text. If it is positioned normally and either using flexbox with two divs or one element like my example and using padding and psuedo elements then nothing will break if you add or remove text.

I'm trying to make a little greasemonkey script for 4chan itself, and I can't seem to get this onclick event to fire. Any tips?

var quotelinks = document.getElementsByClassName('quotelink');

for(i = 0; i < quotelinks.length; i++) {
    quotelinks[i].onclick = function(event) { console.log('lol'); };
}

>>61186779

One of them was a float and was 5.99999...

>>61187856

Are the quote links generated dynamically? onClick will only bind to elements that exist at the time it's called.

Either use jquery (can you use jquery in greasemonkey?) and use .on("click" fuinction(){} ) or you can keep scanning the document for them.

setTimeout(function(){ quotelink code goes here }, 500);

>>61188257
the quotelinks are plain static <a> tags. I can iterate over them and change their href, for instance. I think it's the fact that they're <a> that messes with it.

I think I'll have to add jQuery to the script, but it feels a bit dirty

>>61188342
Is your code running before 4chans js kicks in and resets all of the onclick handlers to it's own functions.

>>61188404
interesting point, and likely. I'll look into it.

>>61188342

Try quotelinks[i]..addEventListener("click" function(){});

What is the most efficient and least resource-intensive way to allow different blocks of text to be loaded and unloaded dynamically via onclick events? Should I put the text into a SQL database and use PHP to call them or is it better to write all the different text blocks into the same document, hide them by default and toggle them on and off through jQuery?

>>61189496

>>61189845
depends on how many blocks you have and how often they need to change

Vultr $2.5/mo vps

On another stupid note, does anybody know of a Wordpress quick cheat sheet of some sorts on the web? It feels stupid and weird asking this, but I have an interview tomorrow and the guy uses Wordpress and jQuery for his website. jQuery I'm more than familiar with, but I've never worked with WP before and it's going to suck if I go in saying that I've built things using Node, PHP, and Python, but I've never touched WordPress.

>>61189931
They need to change every time the user clicks on different elements. One element changes the text to one text block, another element changes it to another block. The user can also toggle it back to the default block of text. It's all done through onclick

>>61189931
>>61190060
well if I'm guessing right you're the web game guy then I think you can just keep the descriptions as strings in javascript and swap them in and out.
anyway, always start with the easier solution first unless you're like 99% sure that the more complex one will be needed soon (for example a feature allowing administrators to manage the blocks of text through a friendly web interface)

        foreach ($stmt as $row){
            array_push($class,$dbq ->getCourseName($row['id_course']),$dbq->getProfessorName($row['id_professor']));

you can use json_decode to make an array or object.

Then foreach through the object/array to access whatever you want.

When I start fucking with JSON I do a TON of trial and error. I basically try to get the base info, then I narrow it down, narrow it further, then get exactly what I need. Very hard to get what you need from the beginning unless you're rainman autism or don't have ADD.

so go with C#, 100%

>>61193005
You get your json in chunks, right? I can't think of an example where you are getting a json array that somehow changes while being used by PHP?

That doesn't make sense at all.

php isn't async, it does everything then stops running. Use json_decode.

any recommendation to learn css? like from a designer point of view, i mean i already know the syntax but i can hardly make good stuff, i want to learn some techniques, something like this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EPG1fsZ-qo

anyone here use html preprocessing like pug(jade)? is it worth while

>>61196455
I skimmed that video and it seems to focus on animations and transforms. Transforms are very easy for simple stuff; it's just translating (sliding), rotating, and similar stuff. (Unless you want more complex transforms, with matrices and shit.)

CSS animations aren't too hard either. It's very similar to animating in Flash or basically any similar program. You specify keyframes, which are what you want your element to look like at certain percentages through the animation. And then through a process called "tweening", the browser generates the location and appearance at subsecond intervals.

You can also make certain parts of the animation faster or slower, with the ease in/out (and other) timing functions.

Alternatively, you can use CSS transitions, which let you specify a property (e.g. height), and when that property gets changed with CSS or JavaScript, the change gets animated. This is simpler, but you can't have keyframes in the middle of the function.

>>61196666
Eh, I never have. But I might be biased because I generally prefer writing things from scratch. I do use Emmet for typing html though.

>>61196666
Not really, it's just one more thing to learn and one more thing to have bugs and incompatibilities, and it doesn't really add anything significant in return.

Request just time out, can't login anymore

>>61198876
There's not enough info there to tell, but if it works most of the time but occasionally fails, that sounds like something isn't handling some login data correctly.

Figure out what all your possible inputs are and test it for each of them. For example:
- Valid login info for existing user (success case)
- Correct username, incorrect password
- Incorrect username, correct password
- Both incorrect
- asavcaegaewafadsfdqc23q32fq3aw
- Anything else you can think of

If it consistently fails in one case, you at least know where to look. You really should be doing that automatically with unit testing, but whatever.

I have an internship coming up in a major company, technologies used while I'm there will be:
- MS Windows Server 2012, MS Windows 10
- MS SQL Server 2014
- C# 5.0, T-SQL
- MS Visual Studio 2015, Sybase Power Designer
- MS SQL Server Reporting Services 2012
- HTML, CSS, Javascript, Linq to SQL, Entity Framework, MVC, ASP.NET

I don't know most of these, since I only worked with MEAN stack.
How do I get ready for this?
I have exactly one month to get ready to get this fucking job and stop being a useless neet.

Can you point me to some "free" (YARR!) tutorials or some other ways to make this happen. I can study 24/7 for this, since I don't have other responsibilities.

I have a question about hosting. Please bare with me, if this is stupid question. I've dealt with PHP and Java in the past, but right now I'm pretty unsure what to do:
How would you people host a Rails site?

I did a lot of research but every solution seems to have huge downsides:

>Heroku
Super simple, but as I understand it, you can't permanently store small files, but have to put it on something like S3 instead. So why am I using this when I have to configure so much shit in the aftermath anyway?


>DigitalOcean
A lot of times I heard the recommendation of DG on /g/. But their "One-Click App" of Rails uses an old version or Rails and the worst server for Rails (Unicorn). And from what I've seen, installing Rails yourself and doing all the configuration is a lot of effort, especially since you have to take care of a lot of security stuff. Is this correct?


>Engine Yard
Way too expensive, also I don't need a full service team.


>AWS
I couldn't even figure out what all those bundle names mean. There are so many options and packages, it's hard to get what I would actually need, let alone configure and deploy.


Any recommendations or experiences about that topic would be very appreciated..

I think maybe jade went out of style when webpack blew up but imho it doesnt matter what templates/components you use/reuse as long as you dont type everything out every time and constantly copy paste code or repeat yourself.

remotes are the hardest to get, seriously. Do you have any experience? If you don't, I'd say first try to land a job wherever you are, then once you have that you might have a chance at better jobs abroad. If that's not an option, then just freelance til you go crazy, and then use your freelance stuff as a portfolio to land something better abroad.

What do I do about this when I don't know

A. what a successful request looks like
B. what the server side code is expecting

>>61202671
you guess or you give up

I'm trying to authenticate myself to a public free wi-fi network remotely by accessing their captive portal. You can do this for McDonald's so I have reason to expect it is possible.

Right now I have the captive portal I want bookmarked from Google search. Google had it listed with this info already in the query string:

Object { pip: "172.16.255.35", sid: "957", nasid: "hso4861gwy0001", vlan: "320" }

I don't know much about networking.

What does this info mean? Usually captive portals will just send a request to the server with the client's MAC address, and then it will remember "this MAC is good" for the session.

If you want AWS, but want it to be simple setup, Elastic Beanstalk is the way to go. They have a guide here:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create_deploy_Ruby_rails.html

I've used Heroku in the past, and it's pretty decent. I'm not sure about the file storage limitations; my site didn't have any image uploads, or a ton of images for that matter. But I don't think it would be too hard to set up S3, if you decide to go that route. I've used the S3 SDK before (in another language, in another project) and it's pretty basic.

Yes. Im moving for an out of state job in a few weeks.

How did the process go? How many trips back and forth? What considerations did you make for living expenses and uprooting your life like that?

The thought of moving to silicon valley is exciting but it'd completely change my life, and I'm not sure if would entirely be for the better.

>>61203286
>The thought of moving to silicon valley
I'm actually extremely jealous. It is my dream to work for a startup there (I watch the show)

I had one trip for the interview. A few phone calls after that. They denied me then made me an offer a week later. Negotiated the salary up a bit and took it.

Considerations made were living expenses and state tax differences. Housing is expensive in the valley so make sure the math sounds right or you could have less left over than you currently do. Also I made sure they were 40 hours a week since I wouldn't take a 25% pay increase if I had to work an extra 50% hours per week.
Relocation is a great tool for salary negotiations.

As for uprooting your life, not much advice on that. It's a pain in the ass but It's a necessary career step for me.

Let us know how it goes!

I'm trying to make GET requests to a remote server.
Getting: Access-Control-Allow-Origin Error

How do I bypass this ?

>>61204338
The remote server has to allow requests from different origins. If you have access to the server you can configure it in e.g. nginx. Otherwise make the request on the backend.

>>61204316
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28268835/react-onclick-event-on-component

You can't make XHR requests to cross-origin domains unless you've setup Cross Origin Resource Sharing.

Its a competitor's web store. We need access to a particular price. Rather than scrape it daily, we want to make a request as needed.

Is there really no way to do this ? A browser can make the request, why not a server ?

I'm getting to the age where I should leave home, without any qualifications and am only able to get work in the construction industry, which I hate.

>>61204866
Use `some`.

>>61182470
This is actually retarded. This is why web developers aren't real programmers.

>>61182133
Give a concrete example. Often, for example if the conditions are totally arbitrary, this is best written just as:

if (
  oneThing ||
  anotherThing ||
  thirdThing
) {
  // go
}

Chaining `||` means that conditions will be checked until one succeeds, and once a success is found, no more conditions will be evaluated. The `if`'s condition will be passed.

Give a full example and I'll show you the best way to write it.

in js it's requestAnimationFrame, setTimeout, setInterval
idk about css

e.g. something like:

// move a div element 10 pixels to the right every second (1000 milliseconds)
setInterval(function(){
 x += 10;
 document.getElementId("sprite_div").style.left = x + "px";
}, 1000);

>>61204973
>This is actually retarded. This is why web developers aren't real programmers.

Your example doesn't even do what he asked. He said 'more than one', but yours executes if there is only one truth condition.

He wants 'more than one', and counting isn't really possible with boolean logic; you'd have to do something like

(a && b) || (a && c) || (b && c)

, which becomes unmaintainable when you add a few more conditions. My example converts it to arithmetic, and imo is more convenient and readable than a loop. Please explain how it's retarded.

>>61204961
>Maybe this is the way. The past week I've hardly done much learning because I've been restoring a bicycle I bought instead. I've been springing out of bed in the morning to work on that bike, while I absolutely dread turning on my computer.

>>61205091
You should use CSS animation if possible. The browser handles shit for you, so you can't fuck your performance too hard.

The MDN guide is pretty good:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/animation

Also look at CSS transitions, where you basically put in CSS what property you're going to animate, and how long to animate it for, and when you change that property with JavaScript, it will automatically animate it for you.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Transitions/Using_CSS_transitions

>>61205216
Try to avoid using setInterval if possible. Read the docs on requestAnimationFrame if you're gonna do that stuff in JavaScript. Alternatively, use a library that will handle that stuff for you. (A modern library; i.e. not jQuery)

Also, make sure you refrain from doing

document.getElementById

every single time you render a frame. Call it once outside the function, or at least check whether the element is defined before you query the DOM for a new one.

>>61206054
>most are made with engines like unity because js/web are too limited

It's not so much that JS/web are too limited, it's that Unity or other engines/libraries do a lot of the boilerplate stuff and sometimes provide common APIs to hook into low-level features, so you can compile for multiple platforms using the same codebase.

Can I keep a record of my connected clients on my server, and then whenever my server has new data, broadcast that new data to each of my clients, using UDP?

>>61206408
Ok I'm reading this...
https://www.cs.rutgers.edu/~pxk/417/notes/sockets/udp.html
It looks like on the server, I just need to properly set up the connectionless UDP socket.
My client will be a web page, so javascript; I know there's a WebSocket interface, so hopefully I can use that to access my broadcast data.

One thing though - it's still sockets. At that point I don't really care if the socket is using UDP or TCP. So I don't see an advantage to UDP over just using websockets, since UDP would necessitate socket usage anyways. Or am I misunderstanding?

ThreeJS is pretty sexy tho. Yes, parsing user input and coding behavior is more difficult without a dedicated platform for it, but the advantage to HTML/Canvas/JS stuff is that it's, well, in browser.

>>61205965
The direct answer? No. You can't, because HTML isn't a programming language. Namely, it can't accept, interpret, and produce different outcomes based on differing input.

However, with JavaScript, you certainly can. Using <canvas>, <svg>, or CSS if you're really fucking insane, you too can scam people on Facebook with your New Awesome Game.

technically yes.
you need javascript though. i recommend typscript along with phaser.
you can even package it up with electron no problems this way you also get access to the filesystem and advanced input.

Not strictly true. If you have something like nodemon, it'll do the restarting for you.
However, be aware that NodeJS IS JavaScript, and thus is inherently single-threaded. Also make sure you're aware of Asynchronous programming, which isn't necessarily a thing exclusive to Node or JS, but is worth remembering.

Finally, be aware that Node, as backend JS, does not have access to the 'window' object. So there's no window.alert(), window.prompt(), etc.
At least not natively.

Small tip (inb4 that's what she said):
When you can, if you need to rotate or transform stuff, use 3D transforms. That is, instead of:

#my-element{
    transform:rotate(32deg);
}

do:

#my-element{
    transform:rotateZ(32deg);
}

This functionally does the same thing, but in a lot of browsers, using rotateZ() instead of rotate() forces the browser to use hardware accelerated rendering (if available). That can speed things up a LOT.


Also, on an unrelated note, two questions:
1.) Why are fat-arrow functions so sexy?
2.) Why are they not called thicc arrow functinos?

>>61209803
Yes, and always use plenty of <blink> and <marquee> tags. And remember to sprinkle the fuck out of your page with animated gifs.

First of all, JS is obviously not necessary as html+css is turing complete: https://codepen.io/i0z/pen/mFLCw

Second, lots of "choose your own adventure" style narrative games were written in HTML before everybody wrote fancy JS.

>>61205965
Of course you can, you just have to creatively work around your limitations. If you're asking whether HTML by itself is an effective generic platform for all sorts of game development, then the answer is no. You're not gonna make a 2D platformer using HTML without JS.

What you have against node?

Hey /wdg/,

So I have a conundrum. A lot of people quit at the small creative agency I work at. I stuck around because I'm not in a position to quit (I'm moving across the country and I need the money). Due to me being the only developer left, I was offered a full time position, despite transitioning to remote.

My boss is getting really hung up on trying to figure out a title, since I won't just be a "web developer" - since I have graphics design experience, and I'm good with client interaction and the "strategic planning" aspect of being a full-service creative agency, I'll be handling a lot of different responsibilities outside development.

Is there a job title that fits such a description? I don't want my boss to give me a job title that's going to look like I'm some "generalist" because I think that might look bad on a resume later on in my career. Any advice on what title I should propose for him?

Sorry if it's a stupid question. My boss is super detail oriented though and I'd rather not have him pick something silly.

>>61211513

can i ask why did people leave?

>>61211564
They just didn't like his management style or his take on the creative process. To an extent, I understand that they just felt he was too "involved" in how things get done, but personally I never had a problem with the way he did things.

>>61211254

I'm currently building a website. Since I don't have much experience beyond basic HTML, CSS and Java I'm having to learn as I go. Where should I be looking in order to learn to program the following? :
>a login/register system which "remembers" the user
>a search engine which can "fetch" items from an internal database

>>61183135
If you want to built an app from (almost) scratch, then yes. If you want to work for Facebook or google, no. Learn PHP or JS or something used by bigger companies.

I built this: https://diogn.es in a few hours with rails. And www.gymbull.com in a few months

>>61212660
exit($statusCode)

also use snake casing

>>61212930

http://php.net/manual/en/function.exit.php
>Note: This language construct is equivalent to die().

I would have imagined the header() function to be a better fit, since it's already using HTTP status codes. Wasn't sure how to read those in the browser though.

>>61213081
well your alternative is echo blah
then die();
there's no sophisticated method to do this

>>61213126
>there's no sophisticated method to do this

yeah, I did think "well this applies to all webdev basically"

just look at angular, you need to create 6 classes to edit a box

Why do clients think they are qualified to make choices for technologies to be used? (Except for wordpress, I know they use it because they hate learning tech)

Is it to feel like they are experts? Or trying to control the course?

So I'm looking at the helloworld example for React right now. Does this literally do all the rendering? I cant even read text without having JS activated like this.

ReactDOM.render(
        <h1>Hello, world!</h1>,
        document.getElementById('root')
      );

Maybe you could make a site that caters to some niche in the market and shows up in their obscure search terms.

>>61208696
>How do I get to the next level?
it's time to start diving into specific areas you're interested in. Security, authorization, deployment, server management, whatever smaller fields you're interested in, pick up a book or tutorial and get acquainted with the standard libraries and techniques in those fields. Every field has a bunch of top-notch libraries that take a while to get to know.

>>61213960
This is JSX and it's just syntactic sugar. Imagine that the HTML is a string or ES6 template literals instead. It just replaces an element on the page or inserts the template into it.

What does /wdg/ predicts about elixir and phoenix?

>>61202777

Thanks a lot, man.

So DigitalOcean is not a good option?

Basically I only need small avatar pictures, but since Heroku has this weird thing called "ephemeral filesystem" you can't permanently store files there.


I thought about saving the avatar pics in a Postgrees database (as BLOBs), is that a good solution?

How easy / fast it is to learn node.js and angular.js for someone who already know javascript, php, C, C++, java, etc. ?

Any good resource for learning it ?

>>61214690

What's there to predict?

Elixir and Phoenix are pretty great, but there are so many good web frameworks out there today, it's hard to penetrate the market. 20 years ago there was a lot of bad stuff out there, that's why you could have success if you actually had some quality framework. Today you can do pretty much everything with pretty much every language. The only real option to establish a new language/framework nowadays is either stealing someone else's fanbase - as the whole SPA circus (like Angular/React/Vue and so on) is trying to do. Or get a big company lobbying for you (as Go or Swift are doing).


So if you want to learn several frameworks, Elixir is definitely worth it. Sind Elixir is basically Erlang (+ some I/O goodies) you get an Amazing concurrency modell, the beauty of functional programming and so on.
But if you are a newbie and want to learn some frameworks, I'd rather start with a more common stack.

At the end of the day it all depends on what your company uses. If you freelance, you can really use what you want, but be aware that a more "exotic" stack often requires a little more configuration and so on.


don't get me wrong:
I'm not saying it's a bad idea. You will learn a great deal when you do more things "by yourself" instead of using a premade PHP+SQL server where you just put up your stuff on and then it just werks. Depends on your goals and maybe it's a better option to learn some "simpler things" like Node, Rails or Vue and then get funky with functional programming..


Ahh, sorry. I got a little off-topic. To answer your original question:
Elixir+Phoenix will be here to stay and it's a quality framework. I've never heard people saying bad things about it. But it will not get super popular.

I guess if you know some of the usual stuff (Node, Django,.. blablabla) and THEN have an elixir project, companies will love to hire you. Companies love special skills. But it won't be easy to get an Elixir junior job.

Anyone else have experience with animating SVG images? I made a thing but a few classes flip horizontally before the animation then revert back after.

What could be causing this behaviour? Using CSS transforms on svg paths.

Node is pretty easy if you know JS, it's basically just JS with different libraries and some ""concurrency"" (non blocking IO).
Maybe look into the last chapter of "eloquent javascript" ot get an overview.

Angular is an ungly, verbose and bloated piece of crap, so your Java skills might come in handy here.

>>61215949
>Angular is an ungly, verbose and bloated piece of crap
eww... Is there any alternative ? I don't think the project i'm gonna work on is started to I might be able to convince my boss to use something else.

>>61216239

It always depends on the use case.

If you have a really big project with a lot of "classes" and different programmers (basically were you would also think about Java) then angular is worth considering.

Also some people get a hard-on because you can use static typing. Personally I don't think that's the biggest problem with JS, but some people do..


Angular (and of course I hope we are talking about Angular2 here, and not Angular 1 - correct?!) has two way data binding.

If you don't need such a heavy data tank with classes, static typing and what not, Vue might be worth a look. It has a lot of the advantages of Angular and React (i..e two-way data binding), but is much more lightweight and more beautiful.


I'd even chose React over Angular, unless you have a real good reason where Angular shines,

Define functions using the lambda.
openCard = () => {
}

This way this is automatically bound.
Otherwise you have to bind this to functions before calling them.
"this.openCard.bind(this)"
