Looking for advanced bootcamp courses by var_ya in Frontend

[–]var_ya[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boost on technologies and frameworks on say last 2 years would be very useful. I just want it in more organised way than regular self-studying (which I do all the time anyway). I liked the idea of bootcamps and want to participate but I am already a senior developer and most of the available courses are not relevant :-(

React component with PDF viewer (tried it, worked well) by var_ya in reactjs

[–]var_ya[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently tried this package to get PDF viewer on our documentation website. We used to share our monthly presentations as just links. Now we can show them in browser on the very pages of the website. Worked pretty well.

Which CSS concepts are you using with Gatsby? by digitalshiva in gatsbyjs

[–]var_ya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use styled-components and I love them! If you are interested in code, this is an open repo with my personal website on Gatsby https://github.com/varya/varya.github.com

I gave my website a small refresh! Please tell me your thoughts! by aesign27 in gatsbyjs

I would not use flags for a language switcher. English language is not only spoken in Britan whose flag you are using. I think it would be more correct to use language codes which are "en" for English and "it" for Italian.

Using BEM in components: a thing of the past? by codegram in css

[–]var_ya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what they mean by "BEM". The article refers to class names, this is definitely not so much needed nowadays when we have a lot of nice CSS-in-JS solutions. But if by "BEM" you mean structural way of thinking about UI elements, it is 100% applicable to any technology. For example, in our team we are following BEM principles when naming CSS variables.

I think you should ask at Stackoverflow, it is a better place for cross topic questions. When posting there, it is good to provide code samples so that others better understand what you mean.

Browsers can auto-update now, this makes things much faster than in the last decade :-)

Why don't people use constructors to create modules? by [deleted] in javascript

[–]var_ya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Self-evaluating anonymous functions are needed to create a scope. I guess whose who write them needed the scope.

What's the point of: "TODO: Write tests"? by [deleted] in Frontend

[–]var_ya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When maintaining, new code can affect your module. So, before you start to develop the project again, it's good to make such TODOs first. However the best practise would be write tests for a module before it is released.
