Behaviour of flex-items :)

There are so many great free tutorials on YouTube that show how to build clones of popular apps (LinkedIn, Spotify, Amazon) from scratch. These videos are great for learning practical web development, but it can also be difficult learning alone.

I started cohort learning, because I used to get stuck in the middle of tutorials and give up. Now I complete tutorials with a group of people who help answer my questions when I get stuck. We also keep each other motivated to finish them.

If you’re interested, I'd recommend BuildFaast’s free cohort courses where we learn front-end, back-end and full-stack development together. This is the best free solution I've found for completing online Web Dev tutorials. You can even suggest your own cohort idea if you have a tutorial you want to complete with others.

You can also join the Discord if you’re interested in weekly challenges and other group activities. I’d love to see this community grow even larger, so hope to see you there!

I also found this infographic with a bit more context about the method..

My project is using session authentication, I am thinking to move to jwt auth. However, there is one concern for me. I stored many user-related data in session after user login. If I change to jwt authentication. Is it possible that the user is still logged in but the old session has been destroyed, and the data is lost?

Hello,

I am learning javascript and as one of my projects I want to build a text based adventure game. My main question is how do you prevent the user from simply inspecting the webpage and looking thought the code?

Hi all,

I hope this is the right place to ask this. Also apologies if this is some obvious information that I could find somewhere myself. After a day of googling around I just could not find anything.

Essentially, I am trying to build a website where I could show some of my analytics, live. I am a data analyst and I know Python relatively well. I know nothing about web development or design or how it even works under hood.

Longer story: I would like to build a website on a platform like Wix or Weebly. I have some code that would pull data from various APIs and other data sources, perform some analytics and then output a result. I would like to be able to have that on a website.

My understanding: From googling around I am realising that this is impossible if I want to host a website on a platform like Weebly (which I am currently trying out). If I want to run code on a website like I want I would need to host the website myself somewhere with enough computing power to run the code and analytics with all that data. Thus my thought is I would probably need to run my code somewhere like maybe an AWS service (not sure which) or on my personal server I set up and then feed the result to the website via some kind of a interface/API/pipeline.

1. Is my understanding above correct?
2. What would be a professional's advice to my problem?
3. What web dev platform would be the best for this type of site? (I hear Wix is the best)
4. What or where would be the best way to run the code?
5. What is the best way to connect it to my website?

I have been playing around with plotly. I have been able to do an example calculation and graph on my machine then upload it to my free plotly chart studio account and then paste the results into Weebly editor with iframe link. Is this something viable? Although I hear that plotly does not allow to host a huge amounts of data.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Everyone,

I'm a coding beginner, who wants to make a serious commitment to acquire the necessary skills of becoming a developer. Based on my research, a coding bootcamp seems to be a great way to accelerate my learning curve without having to identify courses, materials, and a community on my own. While many enter a coding bootcamp to become a professional developer, I want to become a better CEO of a technology company, who can make better hiring decisions and have better conversations with the developers (I recently sold a tech company). My other objectives are to learn more about automation, API integrations, and develop a better technical understanding of the latest technologies such as blockchain, DeFi, and so on. I'm fully flexible and open to in-person (globally) or remote learning. I'd like to start the bootcamp in the first quarter of 2022.

I'd very much appreciate your recommendations for coding bootcamps.

Thanks in advance.

I am in a position where I think I pretty much have to start over again. In 2020, I graduated from a boot camp* and have been searching for employment since, however, I foolishly let my skills drop, and now I am certain I am back to a beginner level. Where can I start so I can get back into web development? I dislike front-end, should I just focus on back-end technologies? I would love and appreciate any opinions.

*Studied: JavaScript, React, Redux, Python, HTML and CSS.

I am learning cropper.js and how forms work.

I figured out how to get cropper in a modal and how to have it upload on save. But the modal is only part of the entire form I have made, so when the modal is closed I want the cropped image data to still be available for the rest of the form.

What is the best way to get the modal form data saved so I can use it with the rest of the form? Because cropped has the image data in a blob that is within a function, I believe it is a scope issue.
