The honest website ever... 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I hate those fucking sites which make you login first and then redirect to their home page.

FOR FUCK'S SAKE, ITS 2017. CANT YOU BASTARDS WRITE A FEW LINES OF CODE SO THAT I AM AUTOMATICALLY REDIRECTED TO WHERE I WAS AND I NEED NOT BACKSPACE EVERY TIME I LOGIN?

Your website is using cookies, I get it. You don't have to cover half of the fucking screen to tell me that.

Performance Optimization: when you spend 3 days, to improve site loading by 0.5 secs.

console.log('This website owner is a verified shit nugget. Avoid business.');

If you get a bad client, warn others! ;)

This website is tricking people into allowing notification.

Hello guys. So after I posted the rant about me blocking Google and Facebook through my hosts file, some people commented with the idea of creating a gitlab page with more privacy tips etc.

Well, that is turning into a project (actual website) that I initially started alone but @ewpratten joined the 'team' as frontender!

He'll be doing the front end and I'll be doing the backend :).

I think this will be my first ever (active) collab so I'm pretty excited =D.

Be it a website, an app or a girl..its all about the backend :P

NO!

Your Facebook profile is not your "website"!

No mom, I didn't "break your internet", the bank changed their website layout so it's easier for you to use. No mom, I can't "change it back". Why? I don't recall working for your bank.

No mom, I can't "hack it" because 1. That's illegal and 2. IM NOT HACKING A BANK

I don't fucking understand this. Why the hell does every website has a autoplay video in their website?

I don't want to see your fucking video when I open your article, I am fucking trying to read something.

Me: I finished the website.
Client: Thanks, It looks really good!
Client: But could you make me a Facebook page instead?

Dear websites,

Please stop fucking asking me to install your shitty mobile apps. They do the same thing your site does. I have a browser, and it's a lot better. I don't even visit you every day. But even if I did, and I wanted your crappy app, I'd open the app store and download it by myself. No need to push me.

No need to waste the little screen estate I have with crappy call-to-action sections to download that shit.

Fuck your desire for more information about me. Fuck your narcissistic enjoyment when I have your icon on my fucking home screen.

The truth is, there is a very small number of apps that really need to integrate with a phone to offer better experience.

I feel most of you feel you need to have an app just because everyone else does. And so you could show these little Android and Apple logos on your website or ads. Well, how about you just make sure your site works well on a mobile screen and don't waste your money on a half-baked mobile shit app unless it really offers something worthwhile?

And if you do have a good app and it really does something, ask me just once and fucking respect my choice. Don't just ask me again and again, on every page, with every new session, or I'll just stop visiting.

You're all not that unique, so fuck you!

Yay. Someone was on my website

I'm creating a website and I'm thinking: Wow, I use html, css, javacript and python, I'm awesome! Then I see what other people know: shit, I'm not awesome...
Programmer: the more you know, the more modest you become...

Friend: Your job is so easy. I just made a website in 15 mins.
Me: oh ok. Show me.
Friend: mynewwebsite.blogspot.com
Me: (facepalm)

I entered a website today and I was welcomed by this message that says: "Please disable your adblock".
For once in my life I decided to disable my adblock for that specific website and just browse the website without it.

Oh boyyy, these motherfuckers and their "light-ad experience". A huge banner was shoved onto my face and when I tried to close it, a new tabbed opened. Then, an advertisement was placed between every paragraph... Isn't that great? 😁

Dear website, you can take your messages that beg me to whitelist your website and shove it up your ass. What kind of retard thinks that this is a good business model. Fucking greedy assholes.

Yours sincerely,
Antony

*re-enables adblock*

A Professor of mine - We need u to build that website so that your juniors could work on it too after u leave.

Me - Sure, I'll have docs and vcs

Prof : Whatever, at the end we need the "exe" ready.

---------😇

- Wife logs onto uni website Saturday at 11pm to drop an elective, drop deadline is Monday
- Goes to course list and chooses course to drop
- "Course modification is available Monday-Saturday from 6am to 10pm"

😑 are you kidding me..

Like 😡😠 websites don't have business hours! Servers don't need nights or weekends off!! It's ridiculous to think that someone had to code this block for these hours, more effort than just leaving it always available.

Creating a personal website:
Step 1: Have 20mins of inspiration.
Step 2: Spend a day writing css and js
Step 3: Realize it sucks because (ugly || bad responsive design || not enough content)
Step 4 Experience no inspiration what so ever for next week
Step 5: Repeat

Fucking hate it when a website asks for feedback when I just fucking went to their homepage. Fuck you.

Got hired to do a pentest, but what they really wanted was a website.

What the fuck.

😐😐😐

No Doubt!!!

Most useful website ever !

The worst website i have made in my life

73.3 MB of page size

"Do you know the HTML? I need an email template"

Nah, the website just fucking magically made itself, it was amazing.

I finally have my first user on my website!

My first rant was about this topic.
I once made a program using C++ which would allow you to make HTML pages.
I made a menu using switch () like this:
1. Add Title to website
2. Add Image
3. Add New Line
4. Add paragraph
Etc..
This was the most useless and stupid thing I ever made

Me: Browsing the security of a website.

Tell the website developer that they are using the SHA-1 hashing algorithm for encrypting the credentials of it's registered users.

Them: Yeah, so what?

Me: You shouldn't be using an algorithm which was exploited years ago in the age of 2016.

Them: Don't worry, nothing will happen.

Me: *facepalm*

Websites be like:

Check this box if you don't want us to remember that you don't want us to send you any newsletters

Spent all day designing my website only to delete it all because I didn't like it... Day well spent...

friend: "oh my god i have a virus!"
me: "let me see..."
me: *ticks the "don't allow this page to create any more alerts" checkbox in chrome, then closes the page*
friend: "how did you do that?"
me: "magic!"

"Simply log into our portal to access a list of toolkits designed from the ground up to help with your given needs. Using our unique tailored framework we can .... "

Sandra, calm the fuck down. You have a website with some reading material, a form and a few buttons. Get over yourself.

For anyone that was too lazy to read all of @linuxxx's post. Here is a short summary. we are working together to create an informational website about online (and possibly offline) privacy. If this interests you, keep an eye out for updates from either me or @linuxxx

This will be a long rant.

Met this person through my brother's friend. He wanted a cheap static website with a few products images for his handicraft store. I agreed as it would not take much time. He paid me in full upfront.

I registered the domain and created all the page templates with dummy contents. I uploaded the site under a staging sub-domain and asked him for the contents, but he said he was a bit busy and would give them to me later on.

After almost 2 years, out of nowhere, he got back to me and told me he didn't want that old website anymore but he wanted a new personal website. What shocked me was that he told me that he would only pay me for the domain and space but won't pay me for the website as his pervious work was never complete. I denied straight forward and told him I would keep the 80% amt for my work done but he kept telling me I hadn't done anything except place a few images in some html files. Hahaha, After a few in and out mails I told him I didn't wanted his money and would refund all of it, but this shitty guy had a messed of mind. He started posting messages of my fb wall about how i was a fraud and I had taken his money. Things got intense. I had decided to sue this cheap minded asshole but after my brother's friend convinced me not to and apologized on his behalf. He told me not to worry about it and move on.

Haven't heard from him till now.
Thank you for reading till this far.

This is the actual brief I was given for a brand new website design and development.

The answer to all your computer issues (now including the caching issues on websites): Restart your computer

I was looking up this vsauce video about comic sans when an ad crossed my way.
What an eyecatcher! I want a website in that style now...

Website must be available only at office schedule (L-V 8:00 - 17-00), weekend and night must be down.

Ah finally, the moment when being a web developer is full of joy.

☑️ Server-side rendering
☑️ Inline critical css
☑️ Add progressive image loading
☑️ Minify everything
☑️ Automate release process in CI
☑️ Lint everything

Now that the strucutre is up, time to code the actual website. This is gonna be good!

True that

Thinking about this makes me pull my fucking hairs.

The fact that I have to look for the actual content in a website, among all the ads, prompts and fucking stupid design is fucking ridiculous.

Every fucking website is following this designs now. Always showing popups to subscribe to their fucking newsletter the moments you visit the site.

Can you please let me fucking read the content I require first?

"No fucking way. I will block 80% of the viewport with unnecessary stuff. I will place my ads on the left and right side. On the bottom, I will have a blocking div that will prompt you to subscribe to our newsletter. And on the top, we will have this huge fucking navbar which will take 30% of the view. That 20% area left in the middle? yeah, good luck on finding something useful in there"

Then there are this fucking cunts, that blocks the whole website the moment you enter.

"Oh, you need some information, right? Why not just subscribe to our emails first so that we can send your useless junks every now and then".

Oh my fucking batman, don't even remind me of those stupidass videos. Now 90% of the popular website will play a video immediately after you enter the website.

And guess what?! The volume will be amplified to 500% so that that's the sound you will ever hear in your lifetime.

The fucking web is becoming absolute shite right now. We really need a revolution here which makes the websites show the appropriate amount of ads and prevents them from doing all these stupids shits.

My first attempt on making a simple website. My CSS and JavaScript didn't work but then I figured out, after nearly an hour, that I didn't reference the files in my HTML file 😵😱

I can imagine ......4years back

a friend asks...

Friend: Hey I have this website and I'm having a problem, can you help me?
Me: surre what is it?
Friend: So I have this WordPress plugin..
Me (interrupts): Sorry I can't help you, your site is doomed

Just got my website hosting and domain bought ☺️ will upload tomorrow!

On a side note, slow cookers are the bomb. Made some excellent beef just now.

Has anyone ever donated a website and its maintenance/hosting to a charity?
There's a pet rescue/homing RSPCA centre near me and their website is terrible. I keep thinking about doing this for them.
Thoughts?

So today I started to learn PHP & SQL for a team web development competition where we have until January to build a functioning website and showcase it to the judges! It's a little stressful but wish me luck because I'll need it..

Hi, guys after a building a website (code from scratch) do you give the source code to the client 🤔?

Dear Client,

Being a complete and utter asshole does not make your website get developed any faster, so you can kindly fug off.

When you're at school following a Java course and someone says: "So now we can add Java to our websites to make them more interactive".
Me: " *sigh* You mean Javascript not Ja... oh well nevermind. I would love to see you implement Java."

Ah, I've finally finished my "h4x0r" website. I'd love to hear what my fellow devRanters think :)

edit: the information you see in the introduction paragraph (IP address and stuff) is private. No one except you can see it (not even me) :)

There's this WebDesigner who wants every single website made pixel-perfect to his design.

We usually spend like 1 extra month on each website just because we can't do it pixel-perfect for each resolution

Now I'm working on yet another of his websites and his brother is beside me as a stagist

Am I allowed to insult the designer and swear against him every 5 minutes or so?

Umm...
I still go to school and I hate that our school Website looks like this...
They just deleted the pictures which are still used in the site👏

My mom runs a website and I have to help sometimes. Which is fine.

The problem is, it's a WordPress site.

FUUUUUUCCCKKK, now the websites have new features, where no matter how many time you try to go back from their website, they will redirect back to their SHITTY FUCKING WEBSITE. FUUUUCCCKKKK YOU

My website in ie8 🙃

Finally (sort of )completed my website for the first time ever.
Yay me!
Sorry for the useless post, but some of you should be able to relate.

OH MY FUCKING BATMAN, WHY THE FUCK DOES THIS WEBSITE SHOWS ME A POPUP WHEN I HAVEN@T EVENT FINISHED READING THE FUCKING ARTICLE. FUUUUUUUUU

So our university website was recently refurbished with new design. But fucking hell it's bad. Not only the whole website is full of bugs, the design choices are extremely poor.

Sometimes, when I open a course page, it opens a modal with undefined as it's title. And I have to click close button ten times to close the modal.

I can't even blame university. The guy was a former student and Uni probably trusted him. What a retard!

strml.net
Coolest user website I’ve seen...

Questions : Which editor you guys use for web dev purpose?

website programing languages

When your friends/contacts presume you'll make them a free website just because they are your friend...

That's a great description for a website :D

When you build a site on heroku not thinking alot of people will see it, and out of nowhere you get crazy messages from alot of people saying why does it take 5 hours to load your website. :/

I know its 1999... but who called their website a WWWebsite.

This was my school's website in 1999. They didn't stop calling it a wwwebsite until 2002.

on some of the later versions of the site(2000+) they were proud of the "little bit of Java and Shockwave" - (School Website) on their site

Found my first website... Ughh....

Gotta crank put a website for our new store in 2 days, with a webstore and figure out how to get pokemon into the actual shop. And the hosting gives me 50MB. Yes. In 2016.

Saw a website having an image with resulution `4828x3265`, as the background, that too in a slider with multiple images that densities that high.

Website WITH FB, Twitter, translate plugin:
Page size: 3.6MB
Requests: 97

Website WITHOUT FB, Twitter, translate plugin:
Page size: 680KB
Requests: 21

Wth!! And can't find a way to optimise these shits..

Last week I designed the front page of a construction company website for getting the internship....
After showing my sample to the HR ..he mailed me asking
--->
"Do you know how to code?"
--->
Now I don't know is it sarcastic or I really don't know how to code.

wild people somewhere with real high end laptop (it's apple, so we can tell by looking at it?) :"am developing a website..."

.... "develop" a website... using wordpress?

i think these days people have confuse the term develop and design.....

I love it when people make a mistake and break something on their website then act as tho the are losing millions of pounds every second like they are going to have to remortgage their house "life is over", if it's not fixed in 30 seconds the world will end!

Then you look at their website and you think they probably have about two users every week, and the website looks like it has been built by a one armed monkey. Delusional

In one of my first jobs i developed an (ugly and heavly under-payed) e-commerce/media platform for a customer.
That customer was constantly making fun of his bald partner telling how he was gay, liked dicks, etc., drawing dicks and bananas as sample website logos or uploading dildo/penis images as images, he was always like this.
Once the website was ready for production i removed all the "testing" posts and images and told the client to insert some real content and alert me when it was ready for release.
Well some time after the release i got a call from that client, for the first time he was serious:

C: Hi, why there are dildo images on the server? (the website in production was full of dildo/penis images instead of actual product images, he even photoshopped the head of his partner on a penis and uploaded it!!!)
R: ehm... i told you it was on production and to stop uploading bad content....
C: Ummm ok, please fix it immediatly, thanks!

Is it just me or every other back end dev that has this weird habit of trying to guess the back end used in every website you visit ?

Am I the only one who thinks DevRant should have a proper desktop website instead of just making us navigate in a stretched out version of the mobile app?
Don't get me wrong, I love this place, but a desktop website would sure be nice! :D

I got a little pissed over the quality of a website. They asked me for my opinion and they had the gall to try and skew that opinion. Not very truthful, and if anything says a great deal about what this company stands for.

I have finally started to work on my personal site, just made the best photo for the background in my opinion

Any tips of what I should add or remove on the photo and any tips of what sections to add on the website

My manager asked me: Did you tested the website on all browsers?
I simply said YES. Then he asked again, Did you test it on IE?
I simply replayed: what that IE? We don't use untrusted application for testing our work.

So I was looking for restaurants and this is the website of one in my area. Not sure if minimalistic design or just writen html in text editor. Maybe he hired a dev who took "will only take 30min" too seriously.

You're not testing properly!

The website of the italian post service is "closed" between 23:45 and 00:15, everyday.
I don't know if something like this happens in other countries...

And do you know when I really need to access it?
ALWAYS IN THESE 30 MINUTES, not the others 1.410 of the day!

P.S.
What do you think, what could be a valid reason to "close" a web service?
I thought about backup, but other services don't have this problem.

Really getting tired of these web design ads. I would turn on Adblock but I want to support YouTubers that are actually interesting to watch. I saw this ad today, Divi. A plugin of some sort for WordPress and the lady in the video is talking about how building a website is like painting a master piece but not​ really. And then goes on about "creating" a website with their tool on the page itself. (Like a Wix or Weebly but on the actual page and live). I watch the video to the end and decide to check the comments and someone said "or you know, learn HTML and stop being lazy" *liked* then one smart ass replied, "or use Wix, or use Weebly, or use any other thing online that lets you design a website without typing code". It annoys me how ignorant people can be about designing, but I don't blame them. People are lazy in general and would want to do things the easy way even though it's not the best way. You know the saying, give a man a CMS or WYSIWYG builder and he'll make a website, but teach a man to code and he'll make more, improved websites.

Aakash Tablet manufacture VMC Systems Website hacked.

New theme for my personal website. What do you all think?

- Hey , what do you study?
- Computer Science
- So Cool! Can you make me a website for my society?
- 🙄🙄🙄

So I just found this in the source of a website...
There was a copyright note as well. The page was made in 2001...
It is the website of a German institute of education

The single most annoying thing about working with Microsoft is how they, at one point, decided to wipe 99% of their articles and downloads on their site. But instead of updating it in their OWN FUCKING OS, they just leave links to the broken pages in their help system. The second problem then arises when you realise that instead of giving you an error page, it automatically redirects you to the default page.
But on top of wiping their site, not updating windows to reflect those changes, and having a terrible site design, they have also decided that it would be best to keep the pages that once we're, online. This means that they will still show up in search engines, without any content being there.

Add to that the fact that their support team is incompetent to an insane degree, and often doesn't know what they're talking about. This has caused me so much frustration over the last few days.

Dear Microsoft, please get your act together and fix your shitty website.
Greetings,
A pissed of customer who paid money for your shitty services

Am I the only one who couldn't care less how my website looks on Internet Explorer? If you visit my website, you'd better damn well not be using Internet Explorer.

When a client calls you after hours saying their website is down, you check it and it's working... Then the client says "oh, I was spelling our own domain wrong"!!!!!

Background: I'm in middle school, and two popular games that people liked got blocked. My friend and I made a website with the blocked games on a free 000webhost subdomain. It was a crappy, twenty minute website that I made with just a view counter, the games, and a chat room for people looking for other people to play with.

Story: one day I opened up the chat room where another friend and I were gonna talk about our teacher behind her back. I opened the chat room, and in the previous chat text, there was a line that said "Username: " and a text box. Then, about five lines, each with two text boxes separated by a ":". I knew that it could've been my friend that "made" the site with me (he designed the logo and occasionally modified the HTML), but I suspected not. He wasn't smart enough. Now when I was building the chat room, I internationally didn't put in XSS protection, just to see if someone would catch onto it, and, to my surprise, someone obviously did. Now there's someone in my school, who could be just like me, but I don't know where. Man, I really wanna find him (or her)! Of course, it could be my teachers, who are messing with it and could be trying to get it blocked -_-

Warning: I code just for fun.

Today I finished a website and I asked to my friends to tell me what they think about it saying that it wasn't yet properly responsive and that could be some error, so I asked if they could use the computer to view it and all of them sent to me screenshots of the website on mobile.

I hate them.

P.S. Sorry for my english...

How much should I charge for a website and web app (PHP/MySQL)?

So, one my friend is starting his own business and he wants me to handle the online presense side of things. So, which means, for now, building a website (not much backend yet).

I have never done freelancing or contract based work. I currently work for a company where I work as a full stack PHP developer for over 6 months. I normally build the whole web app or site by myself. But, I don't know how much my boss bills the client for those apps or sites that I build.

Now, I am faced with this issue of working directly for a client. But I don't know how much should I charge for my service. I mean if I ask too much then my friend might think I am a prick. Also, he doesn't have much knowledge about what goes in making a site. for example, when he was talking to me about his business idea, he thought integrating a blog to his existing site is as simple as inserting a one line link to an already built blog or something.

So, it's gonna be harder for me to charge him for my service.

I know "How much does a website cost?" is a stupid question. But I still wanna have an idea about what I should be asking.

So, what do you guys think? how much should I ask for a responsive basic 5 page (or maybe single page, for now) website? Also, he wants this site to be scalable, meaning that he wants to later include a blog, contact us, chatbot, eCommerce etc. type of features in the future. Obviously, I am not gonna charge for them yet. For now, he just wants a landing page built.

Dear Client:

I am not able to generate content for your business descriptions and bios if you don't tell me what the fuck you want them to say. I don't fucking read minds.

As previously mentioned, Lorem is fucking place holder text. Printing your webpage and app, and then red penning it is not fucking helpful. I fucking told you when reviewing that those areas would need you to submit information on what you'd like displayed.

On that note, if you don't know what to put in these sections, why the fuck did you ask me to make them? I may be a magician, but not when it comes to sucking out the meaning of your soul and morphing it into paragraphs of content.

Complaining to me that it's not done when you wont fucking give me the content I fucking emailed you to provide does not constitute me not doing my job.

PS: It's "YOUR" website. That means if it doesn't say what you want it to, its because of "YOU"

Whew... Friday is a frustrating day.

Me: So... do you want a website, right?
Client: Yes!
Me: ...but you don't know how it should look, right?
Client: Ehm... correct.
Me: ...and you don't even know what color should I use?
Client: Exactly!
Me: ...and of course you can't link me a website you like which I can base on.
So now I have to invent something randomly that somehow will be the exact same thing you would like to see. Nice.

Ok! Ok! I got it, sheesh!!

ex boss: can you fix this website... for free?

me: lol! ... are you being serius about It?

Working on photo contest site, no design, no specification. 2 weeks until deadline.

CEO: Deadline is one week earlier, and client wants to have video uploads and automatic facebook share too.
Me: We don't even have a contract and design to work with yet.
CEO: No worries, the contract will be signed by the time you finished the website.

Site done in 1 week, including weekend days and overtime. Production on client's server as asked by CEO.

3 weeks later...

Me: So van you pay the overtime I worked?
CEO: Sorry client not payed and says they don't like the end product. I can't afford to pay you overtime.

2 days later.
CEO: The online department is lossy so you have to work harder in the next month, we have 3 sites to be done.

Me: Do we have the contracts?
CEO: No worries...

Just when I want to get inspirations for my personal site by looking at other websites by devranters the famous website of @alice is down :(

Any other websites I should check out as example?

So my friend and I are having a website making contest, he gets to use weebly(eew) and I get to use HTML. He's being super annoying about it, saying things like "It's too bad you have to use HTML" and "Weebly is so easy, too bad you don't know enough HTML to make this easy" the thing is, I do know HTML!!!!!!!! I want to shut him up so badly, I even stayed up until 2:00 AM last night working on it. It's going to be so satisfying to beat him ;)

@dfox sorry for nitpicking, but could you check the "viewport" meta tag? The "-" in "minimum-scale" is missing.
I like the Chrome console to be clean :P

😃My boss, always positive.
Somebody told him about node.

He came to office and says...
Node sounds a good plan for our app. How many nodes we need to host a website?🤔

Does any of you use Quora ?

Does anyone else have this problem?

I hate designing a personal website. I'm never content with what I made, and even if I feel satisfied a couple of days later I want to start all over. I've gone through at least five complete rebuilds in one year because I can't make up my mind! How do you deal with it?

Anyone else digging when a client delivers an awesome design for a website - in POWERPOINT?!?!

Gta V the only game where you can create a website during its very very long loading.

My PM wants to take the current website, which really sucks on mobile (one of the worst mobile viewports I have seen) and put in an iOS/Android app.

So basically he wants an iOS/Android app which contains only 1 activity/viewcontroller which contains a webview...

My goodness...

Tried to talk him out of it, but I can't even get him to consider using a hybrid framework.

He doesn't appear to care very much about performance of the app neither does the PM care much about UX.

What the PM does care about is this thing called : ONE CODEBASE.

Any tips how I can try to persuade him to atleast consider a hybrid framework? Any requirements that will force the PM to abandon this stupid idea are extremly welcome!

Shows client site in progress on demo server. I tell them not all of the responsive styles on a chunk of the pages are done yet.

Client: Everything looks wrong. If it's not working it should say 'coming soon'

Me: This is a demo server, it will be finished before the production server for sure

Client: Put coming soon up please

As a freelance web developer, should I develop my own website to market myself?

@Artemix
Your cert expired. Please renew it ;)

I just added a function to my project that means branding can define a unit to use when measuring Energy. Now everything can be measured in Cows as long as a factor is defined. 1 Cow is approx 10 kWh. I am way more proud than I should be...

I remember when I had my first "website job" and I put it on a test domain to show it to the client.

But when I changed things up in the css or something, the client wouldn't see the updates.

It took me a whole bunch of time to figure out it was caching. So I told him to use an anonymous tab. Fun time, back then..

How do professionals manage these things? :D

Last week I made my own Website, I was so proud on it.
Today I told a friend absolut it and he shows me how to do it right with CSS-Grids.
Now I am asking me how coud I be proud on my old website

So I took up a website development project, and the customer sent me a clear requirements document (yay!). I make the website, show the demo and boom, suddenly the client wants COMPLETELY different things. Fml.

A homepage is NOT a website!

> Website registration form is a popup dialog.
> Fills in a bunch of details.
> Accidentally clicks outside of the dialog instead of register, dialog closes.
> Tries to register again, all details are gone.

Great, I have to waste another 5 minutes of my life filling your stupid form.

My battery died after a long day. So, I decided to use devRant web for the first time and to be honest with all due respect this website sucks. Most difficult thing about it is navigation.

Do you have any app/website idea :P ?
I'm bored not coding...

Fucking WizzAir needs take its fucking website behind the barn and shoot it.
You click on "Forgot password" and it asks for the old fucking password to let you reset it!! Bitch if I knew my password what would I be doing in the "forgot password" flow??! 😡 They send you a temporary password and then reject it!! Active fucking hostility towards the client.
I eventually gave up and just tried opening a new account using the Gmail's suffix trick. But of course even the suffixed email was taken because I had already been in this hell before and already had opened new accounts because of it. For the sake of all the winged fucks how can anyone so fundamentally misunderstand everything??!
Once I got through it, it asks for your birth date, and once you click on the year you can never change it again without restarting the whole 10 step flow 😡 It's just more shit on every step, nothing but utter bullshit!
Never in the fucking ever is this turdfest of a company getting my money! They can go and choke on a bag of horse dicks 💢😠

I hate it when FOSS projects don't put a link to the repository on their website.

I don't want to search through fucking GitHub, GitLab, or BitBucket to hopefully find the official project repo.
Or search every page on the site for a god damn link.

Just put somewhere on top.

Internal system sent me an email with a dead link, saying a certificate is due to expire. Couldn't find the tool, opened IM with help support and was greeted with a passive aggressive note:

"Did you know that the support staff you speak too will use the same website available to you to resolve the issue, have you tried searching here ..."

... well thank you chat bot, did you know I wouldn't be here if said website actually fucking worked?

When you are asked to test the whole website and you found a pop-up so deep after a series of conditions that it show a video of Homer Simpsons doing the ice bucket challenge

NO. I will not write code for a website on paper. And I will NOT draw my website. Go to hell.

page design structure done in tables, ugh.

My mom just asked me to build a website for her in one evening.... et tu, brute?

You guys warned me. But did I listen? Nooooo

000WEBHOST IS SO MUCH SHIT IN ONE PLACE

Nothing on their website is working, every time internal errors and default loading times at up to 1.2 sec

SHITTY HOST!

My friend @evilarcher sent me his wp website to check, I really like the design, soooo minimalistic...🤔🤔😂

He sent me a link that runned it on localhost 😂😂👏

Does anyone have experience in turning a website idea into a working business? I had a website idea so me and friend decided to make it happen. So far the development is going well, but we don't really know what's next after we're done. Does anyone know any resources regarding what's next? However to reach audience, investors and staff like that?

The day I understand how CSS works will be a lifetime achievement...!!!
Having hard time when you have to design and develop a website at a time... I just hate designing... (No offense.. personal opinion)

Me - "Designs and creates a new staff page for work"

Result - "everyone at work loves it"

Me - "I feel really accomplished"

Co-worker - "I'm gonna use this design, that you made, for my interviews for jobs and say I made it"

Me - "wtf"

We released a website for a client 10 days ago. The site was up and running and everything seemed fine.

But it turns out that the site used 15GB of bandwidth in 5 days ( WTF???).

So now I need to go and examine my code to make sure I didn't forget something and implement a new caching methods to try and reduce the amount of bandwidth being used.

But I still don't understand how a small "newspaper" website with a max upload size of 5MB could of used so much in so little time.

I also added a screenshot showing the number of visits from an addthis dashboard

That moment when you're working on a website and all of the sudden the site (on localhost) stops working, you don't understand why, and then you realize you're offline :/, your site uses Jquery for everything (And because you're lazy, you didn't downloaded it... and you never will).

> Developer in a company that builds Enterprise Applications with web client and stuff.
> Had an really nice website a which colleague made with joomla as base.
> New CMO thinks it would be cool if he could change more details.
> Company now uses some cheap ugly website builder.

WTF is wrong with u O.o

Developed my first animated svg information graphic and i am proud of it 😊

Cloudflare using cloudflare 🤔

How competent I feel today experiencing the WebDev world?

I've nearly gone insane editing my CSS code, not noticing any changes at all on my website whilst spamming F5.
Luckily, before I was beginning to plan my suicide, I realized that I was editing SCSS the entire time, having my auto-compiler turned off.

I am working on a small project to help out a small theatre group. The guy who created their website decided to create it with horrible UI and UX. I plan to confront him with notes on how to improve the overall experience of navigating their website and if all goes to plan, I will help rewrite the entire website.

Welp, who wants to see my first website? tiny.cc/copo
It was made almost entirely during english class, for blocked games. It's the most hits I've ever got one a site I've made. But the best part? I achieved my goal: respect from the teachers. And why did they respect me? *Because it got blocked*. Yup, across the entire county (our county is one of the top five in the USA for schools I believe). We, as the students, found a way around the teacher's technological control, and finally got some technological freedom. Just a small story.
P.S. not named by me, and sorry bout that JS redirect. I redesigned it while I was supposed to be writing about the theme but the original is couchpotato not cppremium. I can't change it now but I'll change it later. I trust you guys know how to stop it without me changing it though :)

this got autofilled in some form today.
interesting

A coworker would rather make a website in excel than have me code it

what the fuck did i just read

My parents "know" that I build websites. The funny part is the "how" I build them. For them, I call obscure forces and make a sacrifice. And thus, the website is done. So they don't really know how I do it, but I have their deepest respect and pride. Plus, I don't get to fix anyone's printer / computer 😍

Hey guys, hope you all have a great day.

I am not a professional developer yet because I still didn't have my first client. My goal is to become a freelance Web Developer.

At me moment I working on my own website because I can't hope to find a client if I don't even exist on the Internet.

I already have some kind of prototype but the problem is that it looks really bad in my eyes because I'm anything but a designer.

So my question is if you know any resources where I can learn web design, trends, good practices, theories, anything really.

Downloaded my website backup from godaddy
Opened backup file (many folders inside)
Opened folder /va and found 1 file with my website name
Opened the file and inside

*: :blackhole:

I didnt know my website was a blackhole

Is it a good idea to hack the website of my previous condescending and irrational boss? and do social media attacks on their online pages as well?

Devrant website UI is so fucking cool! Man I so love it! <3
(the last time I used it on a browser was almost 1 year ago, when it had the mobile-app kinda UI)

It kinda overshadows the mobile app UI. Wish I had more time off from my job and could work on the mobile UI for android.

Those EU cookie law notices COVERING UP the website so I have to click them and I'm not even in the EU so it doesn't apply here!

So... I'm finally diving into web design.
Vue for front-end and codeigniter for backend, what do you think?

Ugh I really wish I could just decide on something and role with it, haven't touched my book or website for a while so of course my websites code is all fucking horrible and spaghetti and I want to rewrite and revisit a lot of my book -,-

Why can't I just be happy with something like this!

What do you think about having a portfolio website for junior devs? Does it help, does it not? How could I promote mine?

My dad was using notepad to edit some HTML for his website. I downloaded Visual Studio Code and he likes it SO MUCH MORE. (I wonder why....).

Kinda happy I could help him with it. He is pretty good at coding but just hasn't done it in a while (not his trade) so he doesn't know all the new tools and such.

It's not my intention to start a web technology war so be nice do not do that 😁

Short Info: I'm "desktop programmer" (if that word exists) in either C # or Java 😎

question: I would like to create my own website, just simple to start with and maybe expand it later with eg. Arduino temperature meter
I have a look at 2 programming languages ​​that I can build it in, Js or PHP. I just do not know which one to choose, I'm probably the most to Js, but what are the pros and cons of these 2 and / or is there a completely different programming language I have to take a look at?

Building CMS for one of our client on demand. Young client seemed to be pretty upset, when we told him, that all the functionality including all the forms had to be build from scratch. He told us, he thought it is there in the computer "by nature" and does not need to be programmed.

Nothing like migrating to a new domain registrar.

Time to start waiting for it to process....

Do you all have your own VPS server to host your own portfolio website ? If yes provide me with a decent one.

Sometimes I feel like giving my client a Craigslist-frontend website. Saves me shit load of time to pretty up.

Any good website or book for basics of Linux? In agreement with your experiences
Thanks

So I made an website(just a fun project) that gives you a popular song(in Romanian/English) from an Array of songs, the song is random.

Can anyone go to the website and test it for stability and see how it works on older browsers.

And yeah, you can also listen to some Romanian music in this time :)
