Black Mirror is easily one of the greatest series.

Peaking

I love you all.

@dfox must be flexing some ad space. I’ve seen an influx of new users the past few days. Welcome to devRant everyone.

Learning webpack 😶🔫

I rarely know what I’m even doing.

When you’re off you’re relative path game

Building templates for a new design system.

Okay okay, who really uses vim? I can barely finish vimtutor.

It’s dope but I don’t know if I could see myself doing any sort of web development efficiently on it.

Seems like it would take a solid month to be able to zip around.

When you’re struggling, learning some new framework or concept and your friends still think the entire internet is made solely with html and css because they took desktop publishing in 9th grade.

But why can’t my avatar wear hoodies? I’m comfortable 😎

As a designer, I don’t really like material design.. but I’m dabbling with vuetify and i must say, it’s dope. And is making my life better

So I live in the south. And it’s been pretty cold here the past few nights. And now there’s a gaping hole in my laundry room and water going everywhere and a plumber who seems to still be reading the README.md file. And my kitchen is flooding. And my gf is losing her shit. And I’m drinking coffee sitting at my bar, checking emails. Somebody wake me up.

OH YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS BOY.

Friday

I hate webpack so much sometimes. My path game is so weak lol.

I’ve been a freelance graphic designer for a while and in the past months I’ve been moving over into web development.

The biggest challenge has been going from visually designing, to verbally and mentally designing. Definitely a struggle

When you’ve been learning for 3 months straight almost 60hrs a week and still basically don’t know shit.

Any web developers care to share their file structure when breaking css / pre processed styles into modules? Want to organize but I don’t want to over-do it.

On the newer side of web development. Using CSS Grid with some flexbox. Any idea on why my 768px media query styles are overwriting my 320px styles?

I was breaking into modules but moved everything to a single css file until I figure out what causes the issue. The mobile styles are at top and I started the medium breakpoint below the initial styles.

Designed it mobile first if that makes a difference. Should the media queries be nested?

Pluralsight is so infuriating. First of all my trial lapsed (classiccc move) so I figured I would use it.

They’re content is so outdated.. it’s driving me mad. The past 3 courses have been 2+ years out of date.. and I get it, it’s a lot of work to maintain a course but could you not at least provide links or new annotations?

And I’m not talking a couple of package version updates where things change. This guy is using Bower which to my knowledge is pretty much deprecated and references yarn. Which completely breaks the course.

My thing is, why are you charging $30/month (i think), if I have to jump through these hoops to learn??? I was doing a great job of that on my own via google and YouTube.

The one Udemy course I bought is constantly being updated with notes and annotations and boy do I appreciate that. They’re marketing and cookies are toxic but at least the content is reliable.

So many changes over the past few months. Transitioning from a freelance logo / print / packaging designer. Going full stack web developer. Even switched from adobe CC to Sketch for my design needs. What a ride. Everything I come across is new territory. I’m like a newborn baby. The struggle.

Once a week because I’m studying Web Development. Once a month because I’m a fulltime freelance designer.

Haven’t learned in a classroom setting, but am learning from multiple online sources and it would be way more helpful to teach thought process and practicality than syntax nuances.

Trying to understand why there is an absurd amount of tooling for most nodejs apps. Is this present in other languages as well? Is it worth learning? From my viewpoint as a new developer, it seems like there should be more consolidation there. Or a more elegant way to build

Does anyone know the reason behind why JavaScript Arrays start with an index of 0 instead of 1? Or why the .length property starts at 1 instead of 0.

Just noticed the app update. Did it fix the call bar/screen UI issues?

Okay question, I know it doesn’t matter for personal use but I’m not sure what the general consensus is in a team setting.

If I’m using a css framework in a project, and I customize it to match my style guide, does that require documentation usually?

Mainly speaking on changing the colors here for the most part I’m not going Rambo on the original files.

I’m asking in case I catch some freelance gigs; I don’t want to be clueless if there’s a few others on the project as I’ve only done solo work.

What’s a practical use case of the ES6 spread operator? I’m pretty fresh and would just like to see a real world example where you would need to destructure some array values and apply them to function Params.

My head hurts

Anyone used PluralSight before? Were you satisfied?

Learning js prototypes and inheritance

Just starting to learn front-end js frameworks ( vue ), and I'm curious. What are the advantages or disadvantages of routing in an SPA vs traditionally redirecting the user? Besides the fact that you don't have to create routes in the backend.

Are there any effects on SEO?
Are there any substantial performance differences?

TSODING DID UXN OMG OMG OMG

Has anyone used Parcel over Webpack to bundle on smaller projects? If so any downsides that you came across?

UpWorks’s “17 new jobs for you” emails. 17?? Everytime? What’s with the fetish

Can someone explain the future of PHP? (Serious question). I was under the impression learning php is mainly for the current job market. Otherwise the future is nodeJS, ruby, python etc.

I’m asking because I see a lot of leading development and courses on laravel for modern development and I’m wondering how relevant it is to the future.

Is Maximilian’s Vue course on Udemy the best one? Anyone have that?
