@sariel He came alone and accepted. That's the worst part. He sold himself as a front end developer and is just a CSS coder or something.

atheist98473yWait, is this a uni project or work?
If it's a uni group project, the main thing you'll learn is how much you hate people. -
say it's not your responsibility, that it's front end 🤷
if anyone asks, he'll be the one getting scolded anyway -
@darksideofyay That'd be the thing to do if anyone knew how web development works around here... but it's just me and him, and the deadline is next Wednesday.

@c3r38r170 be clear to anyone that he's not doing his part, and that he's trying to force your hand so you'll have to do his work for him

@sariel actually relatable on my current position. Me-the graphic designer trying to learn VUE so that the team can use my skillset instead of vuetify.. hard curve but getting there.. I guess 🤔

useVim21433yI think this happens when you come from non-API based concepts. like wordpress where frontend devs write static templates and another guy makes them dynamic. same for the django (without rest endpoints).

Had a similar thing with a co-worker. He did a Webservice that's works with a client program of mine. I used an API to get a certain job done that returns a json (which should be fine for a Webservice to accept) so I asked him if this was okay. But his Webservice expected a stream so he said (fix your code because I won't change mine)

So this guy is supposed to do the frontend.
I do the backend.
I offer an endpoint.
He does his HTML+CSS magic.
Me: Cool but data is hardcoded. Could you get the data from the endpoint I sent you?
Him: "I'd prefer you do that, I can make a git repo so you download the front."
... So you don't do frontend, you just write pretty layouts. And I have to actually write the frontend logic? Go f yourself.
