why the pic changed? web dev is more than just some front end babby bootstrap work, please change to this pic. Thanks you.

too noisy and bright :^)
anyway, no harm in having more than one OP pic

>obfuscated js nah
Luke Miller
Lol, that's just minified js. You haven't even seen obfuscated js.

woud SSD disk improve node development? I'm making a complex node + express app and it takes forever to reload it with nodemon..
Isaiah Walker
oh god you're right and so smart
Brayden Wood
>express theres your problem
Chase Rivera
yeah, I'm not changing that.. the app is almost ready and I need to cash in lol
also, I'm pretty sure express has nothing to do with it. I use dozens of complex node modules
Tyler Gutierrez
>he doesn't use node.js
Levi Ward
How long until Angular 1.x is dead in the industry?
Charles Evans
>modules >frameworks >node.js >wonders why its slow kek >he doesnt use kore.io
Sebastian Rivera
anything angular is already dead
that meme came and gone real quick
Elijah Morris
its not slow, the reloading of the application in develpoment is slow (by slow i mean 5-6 seconds, which eats lots of my time waiting for the shit to reload)
Mason Reed
What's a good front-end related project to contribute to?
Joseph Rodriguez
So I'm pretty new to node, and I got my server to serve the html form, but now I want to take my form data and log it to the console when I click send, but nothing happens. Sorry if my code is sloppy and nonsensical, I'm basically working off of various online tutorials/examples trying to get this to work.
Jayden Peterson
I don't think it will improve it enough to justify buying an ssd just for that. Your bottleneck probably isn't disk based but rather something to do with v8.
Ryan Rivera
the code is running on the server so it won't log to browser's console. run node from the command line (vs code's integrated terminal should work on windows afaik) and you'll be able to see the messages there
Cameron Martinez
It doesn't show up in the command line either unfortunately.
Henry Wright
I'm reading forum posts from 2013/14 on various tech sites about how Angular "won" and how all the programmers who use it were acting so smug towards programmers who would criticize it or use older library/frameworks, saying that those programmers didn't "understand" higher level concepts and patterns needed for developing "advanced" web applications that Angular manages "so well". Fast forward a few years, now Google is completely rewriting Angular and breaking compatibility which is an admission that Angular hadn't "won" anything and was shit all along, and was thrown to the framework graveyard in which all JS frameworks quickly find themselves. Those smug developers now look like retards, and their work will be thrown out and rewritten in something else. I wonder how long Angular 2 will last; it would be a miracle if more than 4 years.
Ryder Evans
you could also run node --inspect and click this button on google chrome (pic related)
Easton Green
... it give such an inspector
Grayson Roberts
I'm interviewing tomorrow for a job that'll be using Angular2(4 or w/e its called). I've used 1.~ in the past, but React ever since then. I really dont want to go back to angular from react :(
Levi Johnson
i wanna step my game up desu
how2become a better front end dev?
Logan Jones
your code should look closer to something like this user. you don't need fs or http modules if you're using express.
Went use node when there are so many so much superior alternatives?
Isaac Stewart
>he uses server-side javascript

It's a low barrier to entry and any retard can do it. You'll be fine.
Tyler Johnson
become full stack or die trying
Brandon Gutierrez
Does anybody work with compile-to-js languages? (clojurescript, purescript, elm)
Noah Cox
Ayy I it works! Thanks man! Also, I see why people like express so much, saves you a shitload of hassle.
Gavin Lopez
what's the best way to run both Python 3 and 2.7 on my computer? I use Python 3 almost exclusively, but there's a few programs I want to try out that still haven't been ported. I don't want to be continuously changing the PATH variable. I'm using Windows + UBuntu btw. Is there an easy way to have both python versions in Ubuntu?
Carter Sullivan
Hey anons, I'm trying to do a visualization with React and what I'd like to add is that when you hover over the bar in the charts the bar will change color and at the same time a table highlights the specific row / column related to the data that the bar is using.
For visualization I'm using Victory, and it has shared events like gif related that allow you to do something similar, I'd like to do the same but instead of highlighting the pie chart, highlight the data on the table.
If you have any ideas / links / tutorials or anything similar it is going to be greatly appreciate it, at this moment I've been doing some research and nothing shows up, I don't even know what to Google any more.
Connor Diaz
Best way to scrap some website highly bloated with JS and Angular? Requires login.
Node or Python? And which libraries?
Jacob Long
If it's props, just pass a function to each children that sets the color of the data, and you trigger it when you hover each bar component.
Hudson Thomas
I love you guys for all the support you give and discussion on webdev you create, especially for someone with no friends like myself
Tyler Robinson
...
Brandon Johnson
don't they have 2 different commands? like one is python and the other is python2 or something?
Noah Murphy
How do can you handle tables well at high zoom, and/or low horizontal width? All I know is that i can either squish the columns so the table fits inside the viewport (with almost vertical text), or I keep it at a fixed size and have to scroll horizontally. Is there a magic one-size-fits-all solution I've missed?
Noah Lopez
$ python is python 2.7 $ python3 is python 3.5.2 on my ubuntu. Check with python -V
Michael Hill
Use selenium & co. it has binds for both languages
Xavier Nguyen
>upgrade webpack to 3.0 >JS bundle file size went down 21%
Samuel Mitchell
Is there something that doesn't start a browser?
Thomas Reed
All I know of is selenium for python. It's not really fun to work with though.
Lincoln Moore
>tfw semisuck at object oriented JS
Christian Williams
nice
no, browser is a thing that makes you able to render html and execute javascript which is exactly what you're trying to do. you can run chrome in headless mode though intoli.com/blog/running-selenium-with-headless-chrome/
C++ dev here. Been looking into web assembly recently. Tempting to just write C++ and compile to wasm. Is it even mature and ready to replace js? Or are there just too many frameworks written in js already that it will be just another dead standard?
Gavin Butler

Ryder Peterson
So if i want to build mvc app with php for example crud Where should functions for create/read/update/delete be? Which files should i have? Should i put functions in Model? or use model to just call those functions View for frontend Controller? Contoller is to see if im trying to for example delete/update..? Am i getting this rite?
Leo Garcia
Then is there a future for it in the long run or am I better off learning js that is kind of pig disgusting?
Isaiah Young
there is, but not very soon. you're better of learning typescript for now
Zachary Cox
JS is fine. It's CSS and the DOM which are sources of frustration.
Julian Collins
any sane replacement for Express.js in 2017?
Has anyone tried koa2? is it mature enough?
Robert Wood
ok thanks
Benjamin Walker
y u no like express.js?
Eli Torres
Good plugins for VS Code for HTML, CSS and JS?

is namecheap legit? can i make my domain point to any of my websites like a github pages site or a site on some other web host? it's only when transferring the domain to a different domain service that extra fees are involved right?
Jonathan Edwards
that's pretty much the deal with any registrar. I think you never have fees for transferring a domain away, you are just forced to add 1 year to the domain if i remember correctly.
Oliver Phillips
That's strange. Does your app connect to a remote db instance or hit up really slow APIs synchronously?
Jonathan Rivera
I have an interview for a job at a small software shop that uses the microsoft stack. Is web development in C#/ASP.NET + SQL Studio that bad? Currently I only have professional webdev experience with Go/Vue.js/Mongo and some Python. What books can I pick up to learn webdev shit using the MS stack?
Jack Carter
Also you can't set it to auto-renew iirc
And Facebook is sometimes very suspicious of some of those TLDs (.tk, .ml, etc). When I set up a site on one of them and sent it to some friends over facebook messenger, they made me solve a captcha

Samuel Fisher
luckily I can moonlight and do other shit in my free time on linux and in other languages.
At least it's a salaried job with benefits, and they don't force you to work 80 hours a week. If using windows is a trade off, I'm ok with that.
Samuel Torres
Apparently it's in Let's encrypt blacklist.
James Turner
It's pretty nice. C# is very good language, Visual Studio is very good IDE, MSSQL is good. On cons non - windows support is weak and you will be using IIS.
Jackson Bailey
Anyone here using Perl? What's your setup like? Do you get code completion/hinting in your editor/IDE? How do you do it?
Gavin Long
Is webrtc for peer to peer video still good or has something better came along?
Asher Cox
>upgraded to webpack 3.0 >same file size Fucking liar
Jayden Johnson
Luckily you only have to be semigood to get anything done.
Ryder Cox
I don't think there are any other options for peer to peer communication in the browser.

how can I override an id with class in css? im applying an effect on a class but i wont work it only works with id, even though I dont even have any code on that id
Chase Taylor
Post code and result, or a simplified example.
Jace Sanchez
more like become full stack or die hiring amirite
Owen Roberts
this only applies if you use namecheap as a web host though right? if you only use them as a registrar you can use a different web host with let's encrypt?
Grayson Allen
How do I into design? I have no problem learning new code shit, but for the life of me I can't design.
Adrian Sullivan
I need help to start making dosh in e-commerce.
I want to build a site that sells tickets, meaning users can spend money through some payment processor, set a few options about their seat, and are then served a generated final ticket on request.
I did free code camp's front end challenges, and I have a pile of Python which can make tickets, so I'm good on html, CSS, and js, but I have never done backend stuff so I have no clue how to:
>set up payment processing >connect my python ticket code to users >set up an account system so people can get back to all the above
How do I go forward, anons? Are there any good resources on actually shipping a website like this? >
Brandon Parker
You'll need to redo your work from Python, it's not usable on the web. Instead, download Sql and write your code in it. Sorry, user
John Perry
Why is JavaScript such a meme that people use it for back end? What is the advantage over using Java, PHP or C#?
Why is there so many meme library's for JS, over the last 4 years I've seen dozens come and go its ridiculous.
I'n Australia job advertisers actually expect you to learn JS meme library's but what is the point if they will be a dinosaur in 2 years time.
C# is comfy programming language, Not being xamarin forms master race.
Jacob Watson
Does your app connect to a remote db instance or hit up really slow APIs synchronously?
no, I use local db.. but as I said, its not that slow (5,6) seconds. But it is slow enogh to annoy me
Zachary Roberts
subcontract to a designer
Cooper Wood
Say you want to override an id called "#id-example" with a class ".class-example". You do it by writing it in css like this:
#id-example.class-example { your code }
It all comes down to css specificity. You can read about it on:
Any web designer that works in Ubuntu? How good runs Photoshop in wine? Would you recommend Kirta instead (I hate Gimp). Also any good alternative to Illustrator?
Juan Jenkins
>Any web designer that works in Ubuntu? sounds like an oxymoron
Luke Thompson
it's cozy only having to be really good at one language and still have the ability to do everything on your own, no context switching. the idea of code reuse IS a meme, in practice that happens rarely unless you're doing something stupid. it's also an easy language to get really good at and grasp despite what it's critics may tell you. I say that it has so many critics because its easy to understand therefore it's easy to criticize. it has it's shortcomings and gotchas for sure but in real life use those rarely are a problem. if you're using javascript to control life support machines or rockets then yeah, you're going to run into problems, but that's not javascripts fault and I also doubt that people do that...yet.
Noah Kelly
Well I actually only prefer it for the terminal honestly, but if photoshop worked well on linux I'd definitively switch forever.
Brayden Green
You need something like Django for back-end python. And you'll need and SQL server like PostgreSQL or MySQL. You can access the SQL server with SQLAlchemy library. I've done some python but not web back-end so I don't know the details.
Don't listen to this autist
Jordan Butler
me. you can probably maybe get photoshop and illustrator to work with wine but you'd be better off maxing your ram and running xp and whatever newest versions run in xp in a vm. but user just get over whatever inhibitions you have and use gimp and illustrator. i used to love photoshop and especially illustrator and have lost all interest to use either ever again.
Chase Cooper
AHAHAHAH FAGGOTS
Henry Taylor
I'm using hackintosh myself, but you can get terminal emulators on windows.. they work very well, but I cant get used to using windows
Jeremiah Flores
is electron gud?
Kevin Hall
depends on what you're building and your execution. if you're considering it then it's probably your best option.
Easton Campbell
its glorified wrapper around the web api so i heard electron was a good fit
