If you think HTML is a programming language, you're a fkn idiot.

Hey,
devRant Community 👋🏾😊

Thx devRant for the stickers

Got my first Webdev job at a small marketing company, felt very lucky as I didn't have much experience. Turns out I'm the only one that could program. The other guys just use Wordpress. It felt wrong at first, using plugins instead of developing, but we got results and clients were happy. I felt like there was a lot less to this development thing than I'd previously thought! And so we continued.

But I noticed that some of our more plugin heavy sites (not made by me - these were made in some drag/drop Wordpress interface) were running slow. I mean 15 seconds load time slow. I joined devRant around the same time and discovered that no - this is not what normal development actually is. Wordpress seems universally hated. Thank god, because something seemed very wrong!

So with us getting complaints all over the place over page speed from relatively high-profile clients, I've gone and set up a script on a server that downloads the whole front end of these Wordpress sites and serves them up instead of the 'real' thing. Did I mention that there's basically no dynamic content on most of these sites? It works like a charm! I'm now trying to figure out how to get forms and route them into the real, hidden version of the site, as well as automatically updating the html views whenever the client changes anything in the Wordpress backend. Not sure if this has fixed the problem or just enabled bad practice, but I don't think I'm going to be able to stop the others from doing things this way...

For the record, yes there are plugins that do similar stuff but I thought it'd be nice to never use plugins again! And hey, I got to learn all about bash scripting so I can't complain.

For real though, I didn't quite realise how bad the Wordpress thing really was until I came here. Thanks for making me aware, all!

I like this platform... it's like Twitter and Slack hooked up for a night.

Was going through my Google analytics. Wtf Trump?

I've spent a few hours trying to fix a bug and wondering why nothing was changing when I refreshed the screen... I was refreshing the live site instead of the local.

Well excuse me for trying to learn Web Dev! WHY MUST YOU JUDGE ME?!

Got interviewed by someone less expirianced on industry and another frontend expert.....they was upset & surprized i never coded html. 😀......and i told them i never will

Why does DevRant make me feel I'm doing enough during the lockdown whereas the whole world's making me feel like crap and guilty that I haven't done enough.
I fucking love this community.

This is what being an arrogant asshole looks like.

I really like devrant. I met a community of like-minded people and i had a lot of fun here. But then I also notice a pattern of people who are seeking to insult and hurt.

But I'm not going to a website to get insulted.

You won. I'm just a dumb frontender / webdev or whatever. i don''t have a degree in comp. sci. I should go flip burger

RIP my 8 years old account. RIP too my support to devrant.

I hope it worth being a scumbag to protect your technical purity, assholes.

F*** webdev(
For fine)
