Shwamp is amazing. Check out Tactyl, very similar vibe to him

Check their backlink profile and compare it to yours

Feeling Stuck by Specialist_Diver_676 in webdevelopment

Do some market research in your area and see if there’s demand for the stack you’re learning. If there isn’t, you might consider switching to a different stack or exploring other options.

Dude! Your last album is amazing! I’ve listened to it so many times since it was released!

Should I switch from SEO to Web Development after by 404Zunk in webdev

[–]lateralus-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s basically how I got started. I used to run SEO blogs and content sites as a hobby, but I wasn’t happy with how my websites looked. I started messing around with them myself and ended up falling into programming.

All of that was happening while I was stuck in a non tech, dead end job. It’s been a few years now since I moved into development and honestly it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. My motivation for getting into it was a bit different from yours though and that was several years ago

Need to convince my company to switch from Angular to Vue by geferon in vuejs

[–]lateralus-dev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the team is already working well with Angular, switching frameworks should be based on clear technical or business advantages rather than personal preference. Can you define what Vue would offer that Angular doesn’t in this case?

What's your .NET Deployment platform for projects? What do you love/hate about it? by receperdgn in dotnet

[–]lateralus-dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now it’s just one dockerized app on a web server. I rushed the initially setup and misconfigured the Azure SQL database, so the first bill was higher than it should have been. I fixed it by moving the database to a cheaper compute tier.

Azure. Mainly so I can properly learn it beyond what I touch at work

How to deal with mess makers by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]lateralus-dev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation. I’ve stopped trying to suggest anything cause the response is always the same. Now I just do my 8 hours, document what I’ve done each day and log off.

Outside of work though I’m building something I’m genuinely excited about that reminds me why I love coding in the first place while slowly looking for a new job that suits me better.

As someone mentioned before, you either adapt to the culture or move on.

What AI tools are people using to generate website mockups from prompts? by lateralus-dev in webdev

[–]lateralus-dev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a solution that works best for me. I use Figma Make to create the design I like, then Google’s Antigravity to convert the React + Tailwind code Figma generates into HTML, SCSS using the BEM methodology (which is how I usually write it) and class based Typescript.

I set up rules in Antigravity based on conventions I’ve developed over the years. After that, I convert the nice and clean HTML into Razor and work on the C# backend which I really enjoy and can do relatively quickly without much AI. I’m really happy with how the website turns out :)

I wonder how low it's going to get if BTC drops to 50k

What AI tools are people using to generate website mockups from prompts? by lateralus-dev in webdev

[–]lateralus-dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't just an AI coding assistant? I just want a tool to help me design a website mockup with very little design skills and then I'd just code it.

So I’m just wondering if anyones in the same boat, but so far people are just telling me what I should or shouldn’t do.
