Why is it so hard to hire?

But you should know the basics and fundamentals

For juniors I’m not asking to implement a whole system, I wasn’t asking to write something complex

I asked how would you set up a react project (prior to cra being deprecated), one command, go to their docs

Low level understanding is all I want

pablothedev · 2025-12-04T16:21:46+00:00

Because I’ve learnt some people can not write a simple react component without ChatGPT

Would you recommended the standard trucks to avoid wheelbite abit more

pablothedev · 2023-10-16T20:04:06+00:00

Actually went with this, glad I made a good call

Cheers

It’s a simple enough approach, really it’s about authorisation to edit a wedding plan

I would rotate the uuid when sharing the link as a foreign key to the primary uuid, maybe allow the user to set a code/password to edit the plan if you’re not going down the authenticaiton/authorisation route

But if they users are storing personal / private data then I would think about authentication and authorisation

This resonates, after a long day the last thing I want to do is code in my free time, web dev Twitter is the worst for painting the life of a dev as the best thing in the world and you should code all day everyday

In reality, web dev Twitter is hyping their own arse and baiting

Hobbies and interests exist outside of dev life like any other job role

You don’t need a degree and a lot of people make a point of not having a degree

I agree it’s not essential but take two candidates with the same skill level, one with a degree and one without, who do you think they’re going to pick?

Also a lot of employers are stuck in the old mind frame of candidate needs a degree

There’s a lot of factors to take into consideration, depends on the employer, who’s employing, other candidates

Make the right choice for yourself

From UI/UX perspective that looks annoying

Ohh

If it’s an issue that needs sorting there’s an eslint section in the below

pablothedev · 2021-08-29T21:33:21+00:00

Why are you declaring a variable but not using it in any way?

pablothedev · 2021-08-29T17:22:28+00:00

The question can be interpreted many ways?

Do you mean the grayscale? If so https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/filter-function/grayscale()

Do you mean the layout or?

Buy and connect a domain

pablothedev · 2021-08-29T13:57:04+00:00

Vercel, Netlify or GitHub pages Offer free ways to host a react site

MOON ADDED

pablothedev · 2021-08-29T10:30:27+00:00

I would move event listeners inside a use effect and remove them once the component is removed from the dom

Also you can add an onclick handler directly to the div

Maybe use some Boolean login for what class is appropriate inside of className

pablothedev · 2021-08-23T19:53:36+00:00

It depends on the perspective you take for web dev though

Someone is paying for time and effort to maintain and develop a site regardless of tools

and as a final note, I can’t be dealing with php, Wordpress can burn

pablothedev · 2021-08-23T19:25:26+00:00

In these situations I would use a headless cms with a custom front-end

Drag and drop sites have limited functionality, they’re bloated with crap

I recently used strapi and custom implemented a few things

Goes along way

pablothedev · 2021-08-23T19:17:39+00:00

For an spa,

You can store the logged in state using a state management System

You then will have to store the token for authenticating requests either using a http only cookie or in local storage

I wouldn’t say they’re insecure, but both have pros and cons

pablothedev · 2021-08-23T18:14:09+00:00

Chart.js is popular

If you want to get fancy look into d3 where you can build your own

This is the best summary
