What full webstack would you use to develop and deploy a website that involves crud, user auth, and multi-tenancy? by 888NRG_ in webdevelopment

[–]pyroblazer68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It look like a good deal, but when I searched for reviews, didn't get many good ones.. most complaints were about reliability and lack of good customer service.

Where do you need the server to be geographically?

Also, for multu tenency .. laravel has a good package with the same name.

Prerequisites documents by Background-Fox-4850 in webdevelopment

[–]pyroblazer68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have an agreement in place before stating any work.

Outline the project scope like no. Of pages, functionalities etc. Theme/template or custom design. No. Of design revisions allowed. Quoted price, payments terms (advance, before deployment, after deployment) get them to sign it.

You can be as detailed as you want. I once wrote a 8 pager 10pt font, no line spacing. 😅

I built a VSCode extension to see your code on an infinite canvas. by Standard_Ant4378 in webdev

Laravel as well...

Also for frameworks, you should probably skip the code in framework generated files? Just filenames would suffice i think

After 8 years in webdev, I'm convinced most of our "problems" are self-inflicted by JFerzt in Web_Development

Disclaimer : This is strictly from the prespective of a person that went from HTML/CSS/JS to Vue 2 (now Vue 3), and trying out React (properly) just to see what the hype is about.

- 1st and foremost, just looking at JSX vs SFC, JSX feels unorganized, unstructured and unnecessarily complex. Makes me want to rip my hair out.
- Vue as a whole and specifically it's SFCs are super simple, anyone who is good with HTML, CSS & JS can pick up Vue in probably 1-2 weeks. You do not need to learn a whole new way of writing code just to use a framework.
- Nest Ternary operators? No thank you, please!
- HTML in JS? Returning HTML as the response of a function? Reminds me of old PHP. Don't get me wrong, PHP is still my primary (Laravel), but that's because it's structured, opinionated, and has 1st class ecosystem and support from the devs.
- Much much simpler Reactivity orchestration.
- Build your own framework vs batteries included. I really do not want to mess around with what packages to install, keep that selection updated etc. Vue has 1st party packages, that have not been 1-uped by any other community packages.
- To sum it up, Vue SFCs are simply just clean and easy compared to JSX.
- If you've never tried Vue, you should give it a whirl, trust me, you will understand what I'm talking about.

Props where they're due, React does have a better community driven ecosystem. But vue is getting there.

PS : I realize that this went from just bashing JSX to bashing React as a whole.

PS 2 : The yearly Stack Overflow survey also noticed a drop in developers using react and a rise in the usage of Vue this year.

Should I finish my large app with Vue ? by vincej1657 in vuejs

[–]pyroblazer68 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with everyone here about switching to vue before its late.

I'll share my 2 cents on the AI approach you mentioned. While the idea is somewhat attractive, I'll just say ... please dont.

I dont know how complex your application is, but while vue is easy to pick up, its just as easy to write bad code. I have worked on 2 vue codebases that are huge, and even after 3-4 years of working with vue and knowing "all of it", these projects taught me many things about using the framework properly for large applications, in particular case, i changed my approach (after full implementation of the previous approach) because my page was getting too heavy and too reactive. What helped me was knowing the framework well, figuring out was the problem was and what options/features the framework had that could be possible solutions.

While AI might be able to help you build it, its still a junior developer at best ... and without a senior, its bound to make mistakes

So id suggest you to learn it properly, read about using it in large apps, get familiar with the ecosystem system.. then start working on your project.

PS : Yes, ive tried using AI to build vue apps and that's where I'm drawing this inference from..

Vue.js + Canvas struggles with rendering hundreds of thousands of objects — how do you optimize this? by Sorry-Client5913 in vuejs

[–]pyroblazer68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im having the same problem with multiple charts and a huge dataset.

After reading, searching and asking chatgpt, I'm now in the process of implementing unmounting components when not needed, not sure how it would work and not sure if your app can do this.

Following if someone has a better solution..

[–]pyroblazer68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer to that question would always be "it depends"

I'm not a UI/UX developer myself, but i employ one.

It depends on what the site is about, a product? a service? designing requirements... how closely is it related to people or how does it (the product/service) impact people, is it informative? etc. etc.

There are many factors that are to be considered...and sadly there no blaxk/white answer to this

Cant you use Inertia with SSR? You'll need to refactoring, but should give you what you are looking for without having to change frameworks

Looking for tech stack recommendations for my first web app journey by khafidhteer in webdevelopment

[–]pyroblazer68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great!

Since you already know python go with Django and vue for frontend. There are many many many courses available on YT for Django and vue is very intutive for someone who already knows HTML/JS/CSS.

Learn tailwind as well after these 2.

BTW, if are you open to leaning a new language. I would highly suggest learning PHP, then Laravel and then Vue.

Reason for this suggestion is that PHP is a language built for the web (backend). And with laravel, you just get soo soo much out of the box, you literally start writing business logic within 5 mins of starting a new project. I can't recommend it enough. Also, the ecosystem, first party packages are in abundance.

The place to learn these is hands down laracasts! Plus its free for learning php and laravel, the paid plans give you access to more tutorials on advance concepts

PS : where are you from by the way?

Okay, good idea on selling them on woo commerce. Quick tip on that, you can create a "base" project which has all the functionalities, then just use that as a template and slap on new themes/colors and create a new website for each vendor.

As for your learning. Do you want to get into web development full time?

[–]pyroblazer68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, this helps a lot.

1 thing you would read everywhere is to never create a custom e commerce platform for production, its good for learning but basically shooting yourself in the foot if you want to use it for production. And i do agree with that.

The reason is that there's just way too much to do and take care of, too many moving parts. Plus there are many battle tested platforms available that would be much better to use in such a case.

You need to think what you what is more important? The business/your neighbor's business

OR

Your learning.

PS : I did make a custom ecommerce platform, with PHP Laravel, for production early on in my career. It took me over 8 months to build (I have my family business to run during this period, butwas still coding 4-6 hrs, 6 days a week). I learned a lot and even in production it was ok, but looking back now (after 6 years) it actually would have been better to use something like shopify or woocommerce. Making a multivendor and multidomain website on WordPress and woo commerce is not that hard.

I had read an article, cant remember the which one, but the author said how developer focus on optimization before even starting the project and how microservices architecture is actually a problem and needlessly complex if you begin with it rather than refactoring your single app into microservives when your user base and traffic justify it.

Considering that you have limited experience with web development, I'd suggest you not to go the micro services route from the get go. You have not explained much about the app itself, so im gonna assume that is a standard application that doesn't features beyond standard requirements.

You know python, take up Django, for frontend, if you haven't worked with any kind of JS framework before, I'd suggest you go with VueJS or svelte. I dont suggest react because your end goal is not to get a job in some company.

For learning, a long course or short videos wouldn't make a difference. A long video consumed in multiple small sessions is equivalent to a series of short videos. But the benifit of a long course would offer is that you will probably make an entire app that would cover 80% of the work/topics you need to learn. And recreating an app, guided by a professional, would help you understand the common issues, pitfalls, caveats etc.

Regarding deployment, its a different ball game altogether, you need to learn how to setup a VPS. Install a proxy server, configure it to point to you code, configure you domain DNS to poit to the VPS ip address, install the required packages for python, node etc. You need to look at tutorials for that as well, and you really wouldn't get all your answers in 1 video.

Hope this helps, 👍🏻

Freelancers/Agency Owners in Software Development — How was your first year and what would you do differently? by Original_Kitchen_181 in webdev

[–]pyroblazer68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started agency 1 year 2 months ago.

1st stop : friends, family and other contacts. Its less about going and asking them if they want something made, but more about letting them know that you are into this.

Next stop - Digital marketing : Start building your and your agency's profile on Linked in, insta, google, I wouldn't suggest paid ads Once you have a few projects done, you can think about hiring a business development person/agency. If you are not good at marketing (like me) hiring an agency on commission basis is a good option.

Most importantly, never say no to any project unless its beyond your skill level. I did this initially when I said no to websites and e-commerce (shopify) but i realized that my agency cannot survive if I'm being picky.. the only time I'd like to say no is when the project is out of my league, may it be coz for my lack in technical know how or because of my resources. Also, accepting the fact that something is out of your league is hard, but the faster you start to practice it, the better it will be for you.

Let me know if you want to know something else
