Azure or AWS?
Colton Ross
What's the cheapest website hosting available?
Gavin Gutierrez
Heroku free
Gabriel Powell
aws, azure is trash
Lucas Phillips
Why?

I am getting a better handle on javascript and I want to move on. Which library should i learn? Everyone says Jquery is outdated but it seems to have the most content about it.
Logan Parker
You don't need a library, use modern js and you get most of what jQuery offers.
Luke Rivera
so the Procfile in my heroku webb is
java -jar target/myApp.jar
and it runs fine, but when i want to try to locally run using the same command it says mainclass is not found??
i already have defined
myApp
in the pom.xml
Chase Murphy
I'm on the same train. After much thought I've decided to learn jquery well before moving to the cool 1000 different frameworks that are created everyday, I think it's more practical from a learning perspective.
Thomas Phillips
If you're backend is .NET Azure is pretty good otherwise AWS
Austin Lewis
so just continue using vanilla JS?
Xavier James
what a waste of money lmao
Jayden Cooper
Sorry Sup Forumsuys, noob question here:
For a school project we're building a simple recipe website with Java EE.
What I'm trying to implement now is the following:
1. Entering a searchstring into a search field in the nav bar 2. Making request to servlet, saving the string in session scope (or elsewhere?), forwarding to a JSP with the frame of the Search-page, returning the response to user 3. On loading (DOMContentLoaded) make an AJAX request to a servlet that makes the SQL query and returns the result in some form (another JSP?) 4. Result is inserted in Html-div
I've been trying for a while, but haven't been able to do this. Am I thinking this right, or is there another/better way?
Leo Sanchez
Avoid using server side sessions. Avoid using frames.
Any reason you have these sidesteps? You could send your search request over ajax directly instead of going over 2 other pages.
Cooper Watson
Thank you for quick response.
The website is not a SPA, so I have to go via the Server and load the next page. To minimize the waiting times I wanted to make the database query asynchronous and haven't found a better way to do this. Am I overlooking something?
Jordan Young
Had the same issue writing a DropWizard app
Caleb Turner
Why do you have to go via the server? I've made several non SPA pages at work and still don't let the server render every single page if it just queries data. Which you already planned to do in step 3.
Your method would work, it's just an antiquated method and makes it hard to use the back navigation in the users browser. And using a server side session could either make it hard to use a second window/tab at the same time or, when saving it non user specific, pollute your session storage pretty quick.
Nathan Cox
I need to set permissions for users, so can someone help me I have table1 and table2. Table1 is normal users Table2 is admin/mod users >They need to be in 2 separate tables, cant have them in one table and just add field like 'level' and use that to determine permissions Table2 users should be able to add new users into table1 and table2 table1 should be able only to login, not to register
How should i set permission, how do i check on login if user is normal od mod/admin?
Should i just search for user in table1 and if it is not found, search for it in table2?
Caleb Rivera
1. Learn Database normalization 2. Learn Joins
Julian Howard
Going to do an internship in a Symphony box. Is it comfy anons? I only have experience with vanilla MVC php.
Isaac Miller
holy fucking shit just to print hello world with spring requires so much fucking work
am i just retarded or its not worth it? i am not looking into being a web developer i just want to put a search function, set up a database then process the input with java or c++
Ian Gomez
Avoid Java, it's cancer and no one seriously uses it for web dev
Jayden White
hmm really? it does look redundantly tedious for what it actually does (trying to understand how the fuck they handle redirect requests)
what is your suggestion then? i just want to get a website up and running, i want to work on my search algorithm more than anything.
Gavin James
Remember always do the exact opposite of what Sup Forums tells you to do, there is a reason why they are here and not at a job working.
Daniel King
What languages do you know?
PHP - Laravel Ruby - Ruby on Rails Python - Flask or Django
And what ever JS framework people use on the back end nowadays
Levi Murphy
why do you need a website to work on a search algo?
Bentley Perry
hey guys, I'm making a stock managing site just to practice CRUD and webshit. What features/functionality should I put in there? I have the basic, buy/sell apps, quote live prices, see your stock history and that sort of thing. What other cool features could I add?
Btw, I'm mostly focusing on backend, but any ideas for cool frontend features are welcome.
Using Python + Django, just in case anyone's curious.
Logan Jones
part of it is just for resume, i want a working example
How do asynchronous callbacks or time delays fit into this model? Do they just add an event to the queue when they fire?
Andrew Clark
If you want to do frontend stuff you can implement different types of charts, technical indicators (moving average, boilinger bands, etc.).
For the backend: How about some portfolio management? Obviously simple: What you bought at what price, the development, etc. You can do some risk measures, correlations between securities
Samuel Myers
Did you work with a boilerplate? If not, search for spring + boilerplate, download and enjoy
Mason Hughes
i dont even know whats boilerplate is ;..;
Grayson Turner
>i dont even know whats boilerplate is ;..;
it's all the clutter and shit you have to write just to get your code to run, stuff that is usually copy+pasted, or that already comes in written for you in a nice framework.
It's the standard, ordinary code that every program has to have, not the particular stuff you write in to make your app different from the others.
Henry Cooper
anyone else use base vanilla languages? fuck all these frameworks. I'll use a lib if I get lazy but thats it
Isaac Rivera
Why though? Is what you're doing really special snowflake enough that existing frameworks offer no benefits?
Leo Reyes
So I got my node server to serve me the html form, now how do I get it back and store it into my sqlite db? A lot of googling shows mentions of using body parser but a lot of the examples are confusing.
they're all different ways of thinking, and in my experience, react and vue are very easy to pick up and just get working with, as they're just libraries. angular is much more structured and will take a bit more time to get going with. no polymer experience, but from what I understand, it's more akin to react and vue, and gaining traction. consider these sites which will help you compare them via actual applications: todomvc.com/ hnpwa.com/
Elijah James
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var app = express() app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.post('/niggers', (req, res) => {
req.body is object with fields from form set
});
Leo Cruz
That's kind of why I liked learning Node. The server exists inside the runtime, so you can manage a whole server, at a pretty low level, inside one javascript file.
I would probably use a framework like express for things of a larger scale, but it was cool to do everything at a low level, and I learned a lot about HTTP and low level server stuff.
Easton Diaz
Where should I buy a domain name?
Aiden Jackson
Use spring boot you retard
William Lopez
>if you need a backend js >backend >in fucking js If you are this committed to use the absolute worst tool for the job you might as well code it in CSS while sitting on a vertical stick.
Josiah Hughes
namecheap
Jeremiah Russell
thank u user
Brody Miller
why is /wdg/ always full of idiots arguing about dumb shit? the language doesnt fucking matter. go back to your containment thread >>>/dpt/
Jacob Wilson
Also, does it really matter what the .extension is?
Lucas Walker
I bought my last domain name through AWS route 53, since I was hosting on S3 anyway and it was the easiest thing to do. I pay $12 per year, plus a monthly $0.50 for their DNS hosting.
Jaxson Rivera
Generally .com is the most recognizable as a URL for most people. It's also one of the cheaper options (assuming you're registering, and not buying one secondhand).
Country code top level domains are also somewhat common, but they vary in price. Some of them are used just for alternate meanings of their initials, like .tv, .io, .gg, etc.
There are a ton of other domains as well, if you want something cool like .ninja or .dog
Its not the language (although js is utter crap but ES2016 is passable). Its the single-threaded model, the inferior performance and the lack of scalability.
Lincoln Brooks
Please research before you spew shit. Thanks
Robert Allen
Please enlighten us on the advantages of node backends vs any multithreaded language. With node at most you can get multiple processes, but then you need IPC to communicate among them. Node is the absolute worst choice, only useful for hello worlds.
Henry Smith
Is PHP dying? Can you become a self-sustaining freelancer nowadays, without learning it? (I have no interest dealing with Worpdress unless it can't be avoided really)
Bentley Johnson
no? php7 is great. Some cloud services are written in PHP
dont let JS memes fool you.
Jacob Cook
can someone give nice PDO examples tutorials everything i saw is just stupid written I want to see how querys work, how do i write them bindparam and shit
Eli Martin
Just use mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ". $_GET['id']);
What alternatives do I have to nodejs server backend?
It's the only one I've ever used, and it's worked for me, but a lot of people seem to dislike it, so I'm wondering what is better?
Specifically I've been using nodejs + express combo for dynamic web pages.
What to use?
Ayden Martinez
.net core
Noah Kelly
shoo poo in loo, shoo!
Carson Adams
.net is good, java is the main language of pajeets. They and their fucking annoying "dabeedoo" accent.
Ayden Rogers
Except serious businesses like Fortune 500 companies.
Charles Ward
whats the equivalent to npm with other backends like .Net? I also only ever used Node and npm is an amazing asset.
That's like arguing that COBOL is great, because it's used by a lot of banks.
Owen Gonzalez
nuget for .net, composer for php
Joseph Peterson
Just applied for some jobs. Looking to bump my salary up by 50% and move away from Magento into some JS framework business.
Tell me it's all going to go smoothly and work out, /wdg/.
Jordan Mitchell
How the fuck are you supposed to name stuff in a SQL database? Say I have a table called """"people"""" How do I name the columns? Do I prefix everything with person_ ? If I don't prefix then it gets confusing when I JOIN
so it returns 2 name columns. What lets you do person.name and family.name?
Thomas Murphy
You can rename them with AS if you want
SELECT employees.name AS "employee name", department.name AS "department name" FROM employees JOIN department ON employees.dept = department.id;
Parker Ramirez
select p.name as person_name, f.name as family_name from person p inner join family f on f.id_person = p.id
Juan Harris
so I've been learning React, made a couple trivial single-page apps, but I'm noticing you can only do so much without saving info longterm... which I think means I need to learn about databases.
what should I learn? I see firebase, redux, node, express, mysql, mongoDB when Googling about working with React and databases.
anyone know of good tutorials for someone in my position or want to recommend something?
Alexander Young
So what is the difference between and ? When is best to use each tags?
Carter Rodriguez
How do I learn web dev?
Alexander Foster
This makes me sick for so many reasons. Like that new fucking university of phoenix commercial.
Leo Lee
you can think of divs as logical chunks of code, while spans are used when you want to isolate some small bit of code that doesn't belong, on its own, neatly in anything else. like a navigation bar as a whole could be a div, and each post on this page is probably a div, the footer section is probably a div. a span would be if you just wanted to do something to one sentence of a aragraph or something like that. since that one sentence within a paragraph doesn't have tags surrounding just the sentence itself, you need to find a way to surround it. so you add span tags. hope that made sense. you will see/use divs a ton and spans not nearly as often.
Lincoln Sullivan
do you have any reason for learning web dev or specific goal in mind?
Lincoln Richardson
Well I'm majoring in comp sci and want to learn before interning. I'm trying to learn node js along with the mern stack because someone suggested and it looks good
Easton Reed
Alright just before I embarrass myself when I ask my question about the issue I am currently facing, please can someone reveal how to post code on Sup Forums, if it is not even presented in a neat box automatically
Jaxson Nelson
Div is block element, span is inline.
Benjamin Foster
[ code ] // code goes here [ /code ]
without the spaces next to the brackets
will look like this: // code goes here
Thomas Walker
Thanks m8, you're a star
So this is the header section of my website so far, serving as an online portfolio. The menu part (which says "Hello" currently) will house the links to what I have been working on, while the text part (which is beneath and says "opkdsad" currently) will serve as an introductory paragraph to myself and what I do and how I can make the viewer of the website (a potential client) really happy with my skills in web development.
I am new to web development presently. Let me list out how this page is formatted so far.
It is entirely wrapped up in one , id "wrapper". No style values except for "width: 100%". Menu part (in pic: "Hello") is a : #menu { max-width: 30%; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1); border-right: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; padding: 2px 0px 0px 5px; }
Text part ("opkdsad") is another , with style value "max-width: 70%".
I want the text part to 'wrap' around the menu part - so it starts out positioned beside the menu and then, as the menu section ends, the text part returns to its natural place at the far-left side of the page.
Any help would be much appreciated, /wdg/.
Jonathan Butler
When you apply for an entry level position, how good are you expected to be?
My fear is that because I only know the basics of front end(HTML/CSS/JS/jquery/boostrap) and back end(mainly node with some mysql) if I get a entry level gig somewhere that they'll throw a bunch of stuff I'm not familiar with at me without a safety net. I have a willingness to learn and I know I'm a hard worker but I don't know how much that will matter to them.
Anyone wanna tell me their personal experience with starting out?
