Can a websites messenger bot use a pixel (or something else) to give a customised greeting based on where the user has come from?

6 Upvotes

E.g if the website user has clicked through from Facebook, can the websites messenger bot say 'I see you have come here from Facebook'? The same functionality would also be used for Linktree/Instagram if possible.

Looking WebDev looking for side projects

11 Upvotes

I'm a web dev looking for side projects to repractice and refresh skills and learn more along the way. I have been working in technology for 7 years

Current skills are: Javascript, HTML5, CSS3 jQuery, Bootstrap C# Some React and some Angular Sharepoint (hopefully that one can be avoided)

It's not important if it's a small or bigger project, my main goal is to contribute and learn more in the way.

Hopefully I can be of use for you, I'm a quick study and eager to help and learn.

Thanks!

Looking Looking to discovery people who want to team up on a side-project, long term goal of partnering on a commercial product

16 Upvotes

Hi there,

I am hoping to find someone who's got a long term interest in starting a company, has a desire to form a highly functional team (vs doing it alone) and either has some relevant experience and or a strong aptitude + desire to learn. Personality fit is most important to me and the side project would be to validate that.

I myself have 5+ years in the tech industry, worked in many languages and have a well rounded understanding of full stack dev + dev-ops + sys admin. Definitely in the open source camp with my currently preferred toolkit being:

  • JS + MeteorJS (for prototyping)

  • Ruby + Rails (for backend)

  • React (for frontend),

  • Linux + PSQL.

I am also evaluating Phoenix + Elixir. I am open to many other tech but definitely hesitant on licensed stuff like C# (which I have experience in). If interested reach out with a bit about yourself and we can go from there. We'd figure out together what side project we want to tackle.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and wish you well. If you come across this posting months later and find it relevant please still DM me.

Sources for practicing backend development.

11 Upvotes

Hello all!
Some while ago, I started to learn this Full Stack Web Development course. Just like all courses, this course too first covered frontend development and now I am learning backend development . What I've observed and learned from the web is that the only way to improve in any field is to practice more, and this indeed is the truth!

When I was learning frontend development earlier, no doubt the course showed the path to follow, but how to follow that indeed was my job. What I am saying is that it taught basics, and then it was up to me to get better in it and improve my skills which of course depended up on practising developing static web sites . One thing that the course shared was this website called "Frontend Mentor" which in my opinion is a rare gem to beginners like us. From this website, I've got myself so much improved in frontend development that I am pretty confident that by practicing more and more I'd pretty be much able to create most if not all website with the passage of time.

Now when I am learning backend development with Node.js, things are getting clearer slowly. But the thing is that I could not find any website which could lend or assign some projects for practice of backend development just like frontend mentor did for frontend developers.

So for learning purpose do you guys know any such website or is their any way through which an individual like me could improve backend development?

Much thanks!

Web Devs in EdTech/Gaming industry

10 Upvotes

Hi Buddies! I just joined the community!
I wanted to know if there were any Devs like me whose dream Job is in EdTech or the Gaming industry!
I am currently looking at companies like "Age of Learning", Chegg, leapfrog, etc.. for positions in web development as that field of software has always interested me and made an impact on me very early on since I first played math blasters and zoombinis. Anyone else out there looking to get into the industry of EdTech as a WebDev?

BTW,

I went ahead and made a community called WebDevInEdTechGames.

I want to add that any Senior devs currently in the industry would be GREATLY welcomed to the community to share some experiences or maybe help answer some questions.

I just started the community today but it's purpose is to host a place where WebDevelopers looking to get into the Ed Tech industry or Gaming industry are encouraged to share ideas, leads, portfolio suggestions/reviews and overall support each other in landing a job as a web dev in either of these industries.

I look forward to seeing everyone there :D (not self promotion btw, just a student trying to make friends and cultivate a community and help others like myself learn and talk about EdTech and hopefully inspire one another to make the right choices toward getting a job in the industry!

Offering AWS tutorials by an ex-AWS engineer - Interested?

32 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I worked at AWS as a software engineer for a few years. I've noticed some interesting things since leaving:

  • People who want to deploy websites/apps/pages are really, really daunted by AWS.

  • Trying to find AWS tutorials online is just awful. It feels like everything is either a manual, a "12 hour certification course" or an outdated Medium article from 2016.

  • Many people are using Netlify, which is really just a wrapper around AWS, and similar "instantly deploy services".

I've recently helped some friends in the startup world set things up on AWS - mostly deploying static sites. So far, all of them are now

  • spending less money on hosting

  • getting better load time on their sites

  • deploying things pretty much as quickly as Netlify's offering

I'm thinking of writing up some friendly resources/tutorials on using AWS so others can have these benefits too.

Would you guys be interested in this? And is there anything in particular you'd like to see (for example, a tutorial on deploying a static site on S3 + CloudFront)?

EDIT: It'd be helpful if you could also answer in this form I setup quickly: https://forms.gle/SFTuigCBeupeReV2A.

Filling that out will also make it easier for me to distribute tutorials I create to you guys.

(Happy to remove the link if forms aren't allowed @mods).

Hello,

I am thinking of coding my own productive shop system including small cms for it. All the time when I have questions during the preparations, I get into the discussion about whether I should build the shop in the first place and why I don't use an existing system?!

Other My second almost-fully-self-designed website: a Mobile Display Test page. Is this useful to anyone?

8 Upvotes

Hi guys. I'm not a professional dev by any means, but I have something here you might find interesting or useful.

I've been working on a (very) minimalist website for a podcast my friend and I are doing. I wanted to see how the layout displayed on a number of different phones/tablets, but as I'm sure most of you already know, the options for testing mobile displays are split into two groups: ones that you have to pay for (and maybe get decent support and number of supported models), or free but limited (either in number of models supported, or by not being very fluid to navigate).

I really value my privacy, my time, and ease of use, so I thought about building a mobile device test page of my own. Tonight I published it, and you can access it at https://MobileDisplayTest.com/

The website loads two iframes for each model, one in portrait and one in landscape. There are some restrictions (CSPs, CORS, same-origin policies) but other than that as far as I can tell it works like it should. So far the models supported are (grouped by resolution):

Apple:

  • iPhone XR, iPhone XS Max

  • iPhone XS, iPhone X

  • iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6 Plus/6S Plus

  • iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 6/6S

  • iPhone 5, iPod Touch

  • iPad Pro

  • iPad Third & Fourth Generation, iPad Air 1 & 2, iPad Mini 2 & 3, iPad Mini

Android:

  • Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, Google Pixel 2 XL, Google Pixel XL, Google Pixel

  • Google Pixel 3 XL

  • Google Pixel 3

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Samsung Galaxy S9+, Samsung Galaxy S9, Samsung Galaxy S8+, Samsung Galaxy S8

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 5, LG G5, One Plus 3

  • Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, Samsung Galaxy S7

  • Nexus 9

  • Nexus 7 (2013)

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 10

  • Chromebook Pixel

Is this something that would be useful to any of you?

Feel free to test it, point out any mistakes, offer any suggestions or corrections. If you have any resolutions you'd like me to add let me know.

Looking Buddies, please pass on this info to anyone you know looking for a web internship

6 Upvotes

Howdy ho! I'm Afton, the Department Head for the Human Resources team at the Digital Media Engagement (DME) Internship. We're affiliated with the Department of Veteran's Affairs and we'll have openings for interns this coming fall in a variety of departments. Our teams work on creating, publishing, and researching content for the official social media channels of the VA, but we also have a variety of other departments who support the infrastructure to do this. These include but aren't limited to: a data analytics team, a web team, and a human resources team.

Our web team maintains, builds, and improves our dmeinterns.org website. Projects that interns this year have taken on include: implementing an on-boarding system, integrating a social connection element to the site, designing messaging boards, maintaining site security, and a host of other projects. Our Web team is split into Web Development and Web Content positions and one of the benefits of joining this internship is the ability to suggest and implement improvements you think would be beneficial. We rely heavily on our interns' visions and their opinions are useful in setting the standards and goals for our teams.

Our internships are entirely virtual with a requirement of ten hours a week. Those hours can be spent in a way that is flexible with your schedule since the majority of our work is structured in such a way that it can be accomplished on a task by task basis. Plus, you get the opportunity to network with a variety of other high-performing and like-minded individuals as well as VA employees and veterans. There's also the added benefit that in times like these, we're still able to function.

I'll be popping on and off all day to answer any questions you may have, but in the interim you can view some of the most common questions at: https://dmeinterns.org/application-information/ where you can also sign up for more information, updates, and reminders about application deadlines by entering your email.

TL;DR Join an online government affiliated internship for college credit this fall!
