is there a way for me to earn $500-$1000 per month freelancing?
im from Russia so it is absolutely enough for me
where is it best to find some work?
my skill-set is HTML/CSS/JS + node js + react and redux, also created some basic apps using meteor js and quite good at Adobe PS and Sketch

So i have a mobile nav menu i made for a site. When i open it I have take it up the entire screen. I gave it a fixed position and left right top bottom 0. Also i used jquery to add a class to the body to set set overflow:hidden to stop scrolling. My only problem is on mobile the bar where you type in the url shows up when you swipe down, thwn if you swipe up it disappears revealing part of the site for a second. Is there something I can add in css to prevent this?

>>62366822
I could use a freenom/2nd level domain, 000webhost, and cloudflare, but it just won't be the same thing. It would probably be sufficient though. Is there anything like https://github.com/lmatteis/torrent-net in pure JS, or will I need to hack together my own implementation?

You could go through a freelance site like fiver or odesk, or you could try to network with people who need dev work. Participate in online communities and make friends. Don't try to sell your services at first. Just participate and be friendly. If people ask, tell them you do freelance web dev, and if they like you, they'll hire you for some work or refer you to people who will.

Freelancing is honestly more about personality than skill when you're starting out and unproven. Make sure you have a website you can point people to. It doesn't have to be fancy. Just something that has your contact info and a bit about what you do.

I want a job. Which one should I learn?
React looks like the best for my situation as it is easy to learn and has a future, but I hate its license and my freetarded sperg self puts me off.
Angular is MIT License so it is free as in freedom, and also have tons of jobs. However it looks hard and requires TypeScript.
Vue is ideal but no jobs for it.

What would you choose? I am in the process of learning node.js and already know the beyond-basics of html css and js.

Is it hard to make a wordpress theme from scratch?

>>62367468
is your nav menu long enough that scrolling is necessary? Or would the user scroll in the nav menu for some other reason?

>revealing part of the site for a second
hm you could have a background div that extends 200% of height and width or something like that

>>62367588
For jobs it's probably
Angular > React >> Vue

For fun and hobby projects it's probably the exact opposite, though I haven't used Angular really.
I like Vue.

>>62367653
Another thing about Angular is the variety of versions. There are Angular 2 and 4 which are basically the same, and then there is AngularJS which is the oldest and uses Javascript instead of TypeScript. Deciding which one to learn...

I'm getting 2006 rails flashbacks. we get it, you know only one stack

Is Python backend kinda dead? All I see is PHP/js/Go these days

>>62368196
>you only know one stack
I stacked your mom last night, so that's at least 2.

Seriously though, I came from a Django-based stack. After learning MEAN, it's just become really difficult for me to say that it isn't the best option for like 70% of modern day SPAs.

I had a PHP test today at pajeet college. 20 minutes actually writting code, 40 minutes debugging. Fuck PHP so much

>>62368258
Django will teach you good practices. If you learn it first, the skills will transfer pretty easily to a lot of backend technologies.

As far as it being dead, instagram, pinterest (technically is flask now, but still python), and even the MDN were built on Django.

Everything is moving towards node because it's easier for one person (new devs specifically) to learn an entire stack while being very strong in a single language rather than try to boil the ocean learning two.

Looking for a gig in Ontario. I have a university degree in CS and 2 years experience working full stack. Anyone hiring?

>Where do you get the content

I just write about shit that interests me that day. If you're feeling lazy, you could just title an article something clickbaity, throw a ton of keywords on it and release it concurrently with some event you know is coming.

>For example

The new iphone is being announced tomorrow. You could write an article like "10 things that the iphone got right this year" or something in 35 minutes, slap some adds on the bottom and call it a day.

A well timed release will net you a good number of clicks almost guaranteed.

How hard is it to make an android app? One of the professors at my university mentioned he would like an app to keep track of graduates so the university can get some feedback. Right now very few students visit the website and answer the survey for graduates. As for how to make them actually use the app, he mentioned something like once they update their info they can use use the same app to get some discounts at stores which you can already do with the graduate credential. No idea how that last part would make sense, but that's the bland idea we have right now.

I have almost no programming experience, the only thing I learned at university was in a lame visual basic class (honestly I already forgot everything). How would I go about this? Java? Html5? How much time do you think a project like this would take me?
I can spend about 8 hours a day learning whatever I might need. I know there's lots of factors in this but please give me an estimation so I can decide on the viability of taking the project.

well /wdg/ i had my interview today and they said they'd be calling me in a week or two for a possible 2nd interview.

They primarily work with vanilla JS/JQuery and PHP/Joomla. I'm not good with with any of those, I know zero about Joomla. I basically have been reading conversations for so long I was able to talk shop enough to get by any coding tests...so yeah...

Since I have roughly 2 weeks to learn I was thinking about doing some JS/PHP tutorials, I'm aiming for 10 on each language. I know I'm an imposter (and I was honest when I told them I didn't have much experience, they seemed willing to teach me because they liked my attitude) but I want to learn the basics so I don't look like a complete retard.

Where does /wdg/ go for tutorials? I'm wanting to follow some because doing an actual project even if it's just following it will teach more. I've gone over several of the JS basics videos over the course of a couple years but I never really used it, so I forgot...

Where do I go for tutorials? Websites? YouTube?

The company I work for is already in the process of moving there AngularJS stuff to Angular 2 (big performance increases). The most recent releases of AngularJS include Angular 2 concepts like components (over directives), and there isn't any reason why you couldn't use typescript with AngularJS.

Angular is fine but shit it's confusing and the documentation is trash for the most part if you're trying to use their latest version.

Super simple question /wdg/. Testing whether connection to SQL database is successful with PHP.

  $conn = mysqli_connect(SERVER_NAME, DATABASE_USER, DATABASE_PASSWORD, DATABASE_NAME);
  if ($conn) {
    echo 'Success!';
  } else {
    echo 'Failure :(' . mysqli_error($conn);
  }

Well, it's going to be hell. Start small and simple don't just jump straight into a massive project like that. You should learn java, yes, but also take google's udacity courses because actually building & publishing the app is its own completely separate involved task.

If you've ever done algebra in school, instead of substituting "x" for a value, you're substituting any word (or letter) as an alias to something. In this case the word "myVar" is substituted for the number 5. So the result of "myVar + 1" is 6.

Honestly, I have a few issues with this picture, since it oversimplifies certain things, and outright gets wrong other bits.
>you can store a value in a variable with the assignment operator.
True, but they fail to mention the comparison operator here ( == ). I feel that's a big mistake - Why is "if(myVar = 3)" a bad idea? - and it really doesn't complicate things at all.
>Assignment always goes from right to left.
This is one of those cases where saying something succinctly SOUNDS nice, but it doesn't really work. As a bad example, if you have "var myVar = new Array(Math.floor(Math.random()*100).fill(100,0).length;" (this just gets the length of an array of random length from 0-99), it actually DOESN'T go from right to left. A better way of phrasing this is that the stuff to the right of the equals is 'solved' (or run, in my example), and then put into the "box" labeled "myVar".

>Assigns 5 to myVar...resolves myVar to 5 again... assigns to myNum
Eh, sort of . The issue here is that there are different types of variables in JS (and most programming languages). For most 'simple' variables, such as numbers and strings (think 'sentences'), what they say is basically true: when assigning one var to another, we read the value of the first var (myVar in this case) and stick that VALUE in the second var (myNum here).
HOWEVER: It's very misleading. For example, consider the following:
var myVar = "Bilbo Baggins"; var hobbitFam = myVar.split(' ')[1];

That, and I also recommend doing more projects than the ones they give you to do. Hell, I'd even omit some of them. For example, the weather application they have you build is garbage. The openweather API doesn't work for like 90% of the users 100% of the time.

So, FCC and a few books -> just for javascript. But when you get into that hell hole, but glorious library, there's lots of other shit you're going to need to learn with it(along with more shit:
>redux
>react-router
>Babel
>Webpack
>npm

While you don't really need them to start building shit, you're going to need them, or at least be familiar with them when job hunting.

Is it bad PHP practice to keep the parameters in the url (i.e. 'board.php?id=1&thread=3928')?

Thing I hate most about old people, particularly old web developers, is their use of the phrase 'plug in' to say that they have implemented something. "I plugged in this code", "just plug the code into the file and you're done", etc. It sounds very goofy.

>>62379535
You have separate entries for threads and posts. Every thread has a bump_time column, can be either timestamp or just auto_increment. You then do

select * from threads order by bump_time desc limit 20

to list the top 20 threads.

How do I make a query that retrieves the last 10 created orders that has a order row with sum? The tables look like this:

CREATE TABLE orders (id, create_date);
CREATE TABLE orderrows (id, order_id, sum);

>>62369124
Learn programming first. I should take about 6 months. Then learn react and react native. That should take about a month.

>>62381907
Add create_date to orderrows so you get CREATE TABLE orderrows (id, order_id, sum, create_date);

>>62367588

You need two days to learn Vue, two weeks to learn React and two Months to learn Angular.

So it might be a good idea to spend a week with some Vue projects. Afterwards you can learn React.

I don't really like Angular, it reminds me too much of Java.

>>62380448

It's not "bad", but it makes it easy for people to data scrape your site. So it's up to you to decide if that's a problem for you or not.

No, YouTube does NOT put up a (linear) ID so you can geuss the "next" video in the database from the current url. It's more like a hash.

Try it for yourself:
go some page and change a random letter/number. Chances are that you will land on a empty entry pretty fast.

>>62381991
I can't change it so I have to use some kind of join I guess?

>>62382037

>>62381907

sql has an incremental key of sorts, as long as orders are added in the order they happen rather than retrospectively

I forgot the name of it

>>62382037
Yes, use a subquery.
SELECT order_id, sum FROM orderrows WHERE id = (SELECT id FROM orders ORDER BY create_date DESC LIMIT 10);

>>62382062

You mean an auto-increment ID, but this is a bad idea for various reasons, for example migrations or when you delete and re-insert data.

You should always have "created_at" and "updated_at" fields unless you are 100% sure that you will never be interested in the timeline of the data (i.e. for distinct categories).

replying to myself: The answer is yes, with experimental features

Chrome has an experimental flag under Chrome://flags called

#enable-site-per-process

that will make iframes of cross-domains to be on their own threads. If you have a child iframe with the script:

setInterval(function(){
    for(var i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
        console.log("iframe");
}, 1000);

and a parent file which contains the child as an iframe, and the following script:

setInterval(function(){
    console.log("A");
    console.log("B");
}, 1);

the console output looks like pic related

Should I take an unpaid internship in a startup for experience and to put something on my CV? I'm a 2nd year CS student with no related work experience thus far, so I guess it is worth it? I am also completely inexperienced in back end development.

that's true, but he was only asking about putting parameters in the query string, not about their content

>>62383416
If you are doing any work at the internship then it is illegal for it to be unpaid.

>>62383446
>illegal for it to be unpaid.

Lol. there are tons of internships here that are unpaid

>>62383606
It is legal for an internship to be unpaid if it's not work and purely training. It is illegal for an internship to be unpaid if the intern is doing any actual work. If the intern does work which generates value for the company then they are just an employee. That being said, lots of companies break the law when it comes to unpaid internships.

>>62383640
true that

mostly it's just:

>we'll pay you in experience!

>>62383674
Anybody who takes that deal is a chump.

>>62383700

>>62383674
Yes it's illegal here (Ireland; I should get minimum wage) but it will only be 5-10 hours a week so it's not too big a deal, it's just to get something related to CS on my CV so I can apply for a proper internship come summer. It could even evolve to a proper job if I'm good enough (they need a developer)

>>62383416
Fuck no, unless it's the only thing you can get. Experience is good, but engineering/sw dev internships are almost always paid pretty well. Ask them for $17/hr as that's a fairly reasonable intern wage (still a bit low imo), and if they're not willing to pay you any more than $10/hr, walk away.

It's not about money; it's about respect for you and respect for your time. If you're free labor, they will waste your time all day because they can. If you're on the clock, they'll make sure they're using you efficiently when you're there.

I promise you an unpaid internship in software is just going to be an unpleasant experience for everyone involved.

>>62383822
>>62383829
Go ahead, sell out your kind, do your part to devalue the entire industry.

Idiots who take these jobs screw over everybody in the market, and the value of that "experience" is nothing but a con. Open source work is of far, far more value. Stop selling yourself and all the rest of us short.

>>62383822
Do those 5-10 hours a week include the time you'll spend getting up to speed on the tools you'll be using? Or are those just going to be your "billable" hours?

Seriously, they might not be able to afford a full price developer, but they should at least be able to pay minimum wage. Otherwise, it's not a company you want to work for.

>>62383822
>it's illegal
>but I still take it
>it's just 10 hours of slavery ;-)
Fuck this, fuck this with fire faam. Have you at least tried asking? It very well might be something like "-Hey, what about $n for my 10 hours? -Oh, ok, here you go."

That's the case for certain licenses, e.g. the creative commons non-commercial license, which basically says that you can use stuff, but you can't make money off it.

That's the case for some images. Some are completely free to use however you want, some you pay once and then you can do whatever you want with them.

You bundle your JS, throw out the unneeded parts, minify it.

you don't really need to care about SASS/LESS for 'basic' usage, if you just want to apply some classes here and there to your HTML.

>>62378480
>Just show me the code how to finish this.
No you won't. This is one of the most fundamental concepts of programming. If you just 'skip' past this, you're either not going to get it later, or worse, you'll think you do, and move onto the next lesson without learning anything.

You need escape characters. Basically, they start with '&', and end with ';', and have some stuff in the middle. For example, &#128021; (without the spaces) is a doggo. You'd want &lt; (for 'less than'), then your tag stuff, then &gt; ('greater than').

Why are web devs so terrified of actually programming things and not relying on others

>>62395489
That's kinda vague, brotato, but what's the structure of your app? Are you using Express? Do you have a separate routing folder? Here's a simplified version of what I use (stuff with (f) is folders):
root
-public(f):stuff the user can directly access/view
--views(f): all of the 'views' your user can see
---index.html:your main webpage
--js(f)
---index.js: main front-end js file
--css(f)
---styles.css:your main css file.
-routes(f): folder with routes. CAN have subfolders
--index.js: routes!
-app.js

In your app.js, assuming you're using express, you'll first need to expose your public folder to the front-end:
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));

You'll also need to include a refrence to your routes/index.js file:
app.use('/',require('./routes'));

Finally, in your routes/index.js file:

var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();;
router.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
    //serve your main index file.
    res.sendFile('./index.html', { root: './views' })
});
router.post('/modifyData', function(req, res, next) {
    //do some stuff!
    var newData = doStuffToData(req.body.data)
    res.send(newData)
});
module.exports = router;

You'll want to deal with the asynchronicity on the front end, in your public/js/index.js file, but other than that it should work.

do your research

>>62397620
I agree with you on these points. You check out the network requests on some sites and it's some frankensteinish monster being loaded in front of your eyes.
It's still completely up to the individual Dev, what makes up the site or an app on the end. Some frontend frameworks like vue with 20kb are not the problem. Some random slightly unoptimized image takes up more than that.
What I am trying to say is, that even though there are lots of bad examples, there is no reason that any site couldn't be made extremely lean and fast while still featuring useful (clientside) functionality and an appealing visual style.

Don't be a fucking idiot with that slippery slope bullshit. You can look at some disgusting frontend hacked-in syntax and think it's shit and still be able to use a high level programming language or even a backend framework.

Speaking of which, I'm fine with sensible backend frameworks, but I really hate anything to do with Microsoft, especially Visual Studio/MVC shit

Really these frameworks suck the fun out of programming. If all you want is a finished product, why not just drag and drop a website with wix or some shit?

>>62397846
That's a pretty clean way. It's not like you are writing a completely function inside the directive and it makes it easier to follow what data that element is rendering.
Still if you prefer other ways that's cool too. It's not the only reactive framework.

The way interactive apps are written and used nowadays makes these libraries and frameworks extremely useful. Reactivity, reusable components, "cleaner code".
If you don't like them, then go for something else, but don't pretend that they aren't useful for what they want to accomplish.

Any PHP dev around very north and central texas that wants a job?

MVC. I can get you 50k. This town is comfy and you will earn 15k more than most families do.

Either that or I can get you 20/hr at a place that uses an in-house PHP framework but you have to talk to clients and project lead like 4 projects at a time.

The 50k job is so comfy though and your money goes a very long ways here. Been there 2 months and bought VR, added 2k in cryptos, and rent is so cheap idk what to do with money.

I bet I can get a deal to cover moving since they are paying for us to go on a vacation and it's too late for new people, so they could give you a grand to move and you could front some more from pay if needed. It's so comfy here. Best dev job ever.

Admit it: frameworks are written because 80% of devs and 90% of web devs are retards and need someone to hold their hand to make a website.

they accomplish keeping dipshits who can't code employed, so yes you're write, they do dilute the workpool

I'm half way through a two day trial at a fairly large web dev company I've only just now realised how shit slow I am as a developer. The task they've gave me was supposed to be done in office hours but I'm now over 18 hours and the end is nowhere in sight.

Are all companies this fast paced? I think I need to rethink my career choices.

>document.createElement
explicit code is spaghetti code? Okay, use jQuery if Javascript is too hard for you

>string concatenations
Literally a basic component in any programming language higher level than C. This is literally something you learn in the beginning of "java for dummies". How is string concatenation spaghetti? Do you have a learning disability? Can you read at a 2nd grade reading level? Here, I'll make it easier for you. ES6:

var x = "hello world;
var y = "javascript";
var s = `${x}, I like ${y}`;

if the syntax for "A + B" is somehow too abstract for you. Is addition spaghetti code as well?

how do i stand out among other ad posters for webdev to make some $$$.

declarative way of describing UI is superior to imperative way. this is why HTML, QML, XAML, JSX, etc. exist

> I hope you validate and escape every variable added to a view.

Are you fucking telling me you don't even know how to write proper webapp security? Do you know how to use PDOs? Do you know how to santize SQL? You're literally just proving that these frameworks are a crutch for people who have no idea what the fuck they're doing

Of course I'm checking input. I'm checking input because I'm not a retard. I'm doing it myself because I don't need the framework devs to do it for me

>>62398593
HTML, QML, XAML, etc. all have ML because they stand for MARKUP LANGUAGE. They're not meant for programming, you're not meant to write code in them. Why not program everything in CSS? Why not write your documents in LaTeX or XML? Why even have Markup languages as a separate thing from scripting engines and templating engines if we're just going to shit all over it by putting code in string literals?

You willing to go to KW? I see a fair amount of jobs here

I want to create configuration-free react modules.
Create-react-app, nwb and others are cool, but if you create a module using one of these tools, the "parent" module can't just import the "child", you have to eject and modify include paths so that child's es6 and css code is resolved and loaded by webpack. But I want a configuration-free solution.

Is there any tool that will allow me to write "create-foo-app x-component", then "create-foo-app y-component", then to simply write "import x from 'x-component'" inside y?

>>62403175
>you have to eject and modify include paths so that child's es6 and css code is resolved and loaded by webpack
Huh? I've never used create-react-app, but that sounds stupid and probably wrong. Can you show me an example? Sounds like your webpack config is busted.

Convince me why should I install anything other than Visual Studio.

>>62403575
Pass.

VSCode and atom are really good. Sublime annoyed the hell out of me because it didn't have a built in powershell that could take user inputs. Tried for a day and gave up.

In the end its just an editor. No one cares if you use word or google docs to type something, the content and output are all that matters.

Use PayPal, Stripe or some other existing solution.

idk if this is the right place to ask, but i need some help.

ive gotta write a seminar paper (or however you call it in english) on "network infrastructure based on open source"

i have no fucking clue what any of that means, but i was given linux and apache as an example of an OS and a server...whatever that means.

my question/request is - if anyone can tell me more examples of this, or a book that has some info on it, or a video series that explains things or anything... i would greatly appreciate it, since i cant for the life of me find anything useful on this subject (possibly because i have so little understanding of it, maybe its really easy to find idk)

>>62405519
Open source means the code of the program is available for everyone to see.

A website is run from a computer. That computer is called a server.
An OS is the operating system of that computer. It can be Windows. It can also be Linux, which is a free and open source, unlike Windows.
Apache is the program you install on Windows or Linux that tells your computer to show a website when someone asks for it.

>>62405519
Depending how you define "network"..

4chan is running nginx, an open source web server, on the open source Linux operating system. The backend is PHP, an open source language.

DNS and DHCP services powering networks are nearly always open source products.

>>62405549
>>62405555

tnx for simplifying it. are there any other examples of open source os and server other than linux and apache? im guessing they are the most popular or commonly used...

>>62405595

The various BSDs are all open source operating systems.

nginx and Apache are the only web servers with any sensible market share, but there's a tonne of obscure bullshit you could Google.

Depending on your definition of "server" you could mean just about anything. If you search for Rails or Express applications on Github you'll find a million various servers in Ruby or Javascript, it's a matter of what's worth caring about.

Mastadon has got a lot of attention lately as an open source Twitter alternative for example.

>>62405384
>>62405450
obviously not from scratch. People are supposed to be able to pay via paypal, creditcard and remittance for using a service we provide.

>>62405629
well since the course itself is called it-software engineering, im assuming the server thing is either very broad (like that rails thing) or is tied more to actual pc's/computer networks i guess...like LAN, WAN, WLAN and stuff like that? not sure if thats related at all or made any sense

various "awesome lists" are good to quickly find resources about certain topics.

Has anyone here ever been hired on https://www.crossover.com ?

Apparently they hire you for jobs that are 100% remote. I plan on applying for a .NET position they have open but I'm not sure if this is actually worth the time and effort (you will have to do a quiz, programming challenge, and skype interview).

>>62407619
what's the point of using a middle man when most companies do that on their own?

>>62407785
Not sure, that's why I am contemplating if it's a waste of time. After you finish all the challenges and interview they match you with an employer that needs your skills. To me it sounds like a better way to get hired remotely. I've been on a ton of sites and applied for hundreds of remote jobs but I haven't been hired in about 12 months of trying. I have a degree but I don't live in US or Europe, so this may be my best shot.

Work has moved me onto a project using riot.js

For some retarded reason, I thought it'd be a good idea to make a browser game using a web app framework... so I'm going for it.

riot.js will be the only external code I use. Going to make a time-based RPG where you run a guild hire mercenaries to do jobs for you (in a way, a bit similar to Football Manager). It will be compiled 100% client-side. After I'm done with a browser version, I'm going to use NativeScript to try and turn it into an unholy mobile or desktop app

I've already gotten a bit into it, and have decided that even though this is a stupid idea and I could've used one of the million HTML5 game frameworks instead, I will plough ahead and actually finish a project for a change

Wish me luck

>>62410332
What's your obsession with static?
If you're making calls to an API it means you'll either need to use some backend language, or JS script to get the data. Either way, do your auth when you make the calls.

>>62410095
html,css,js,php,python,mysql,some asp.net

>>62410741
Make some sort of CMS that manipulates data, like a hospital/school management web app, or find a free open-use API and mess around with it.
Use a different language for every project you decide to undertake. Do at least 1 full project every 2 weeks for the next 2 months. You'll have 4 projects to show for that time period.
