nextjs and vercel are great and I've wasted a lot of time trying to be different and not use them.

why do people dislike 'vibe coding' what's wrong with utilizing robots to make shit for you? i just had claude clean up my code and add documentation

I guess if you do it smart and don't produce garbage then it's fine

i think you should learn react if you wanna a job but thats for npc wageslaves so just focus on normal js

ideally you'd learn js and react, you'll need both in a react job

I literally do not understand things like Next or Nuxt or SvelteKit. How do you know what gets run where? Frontend frameworks creeping into the backend was a mistake.

Hi. I am thinking about an architectural model but I don't know if it has a name and if it is used somewhere or not.
Suppose to make a core backend with endpoints with json requests and responses, as if it were a SPA backend. However, instead of having a SPA frontend in something like react, imagine a second backend that interacts via http with the "core" backend, generates server-side rendered html pages and sends them to the browser, like a old style web application.
Does it make sense? What do you think? The advantages would be having a core backend that is not coupled with html/presentation and can be used for other interfaces (mobile, cli...) while at the same time having a website that can be used without js.

>>106371097
To me it makes more sense to pull the business logic away from the presentation entirely, and then both the api and the web app use the same underlying code to run themselves

Ruby is still immensely popular, it's just that it's not new and exciting anymore, it's mature and stable so people don't talk about it as much. Ruby will always be the comfiest lang.

>>106371269
I see, thank you for the answer. Isn't it more problematic to have two different services that write on the same database?

>>106371297
how do you even rank shit like this

>>106366698
It's very expensive though. AWS is expensive, they have like 40% margins. I'm not sure what markup Vercel is taking but I'm sure it's even higher and Vercel is built on AWS. A lot of people have gotten shocking Vercel bills.

It also creates lock-in. It's better to learn the basic technologies, i.e. how to do stuff on a VPS. It's going to be much cheaper, it will be more flexible, and you can more easily fix things when things go wrong because you actually know what's going on under the hood.

>>106372342
Not him but yeah I think I will go the VPS route. VPSes seem pretty cheap and predictable in their pricing. I can just install Debian or Ubuntu and set up unattended-upgrades, easy.

I will get a web dev job. I will not let the naysayers win.

>>106368557
>>106369265

First anon is right: learn vanilla JS first and foremost. Understand the best practices/patterns and quirks. THEN (and only then) learn a framework like React or whatever.

If you try to learn JS and React at the same time (or even worse: learning JS through learning React) you're just gonna be ass at both.

Ruby is still GOATed in terms of ergonomics. Multi-paradigm, comfy syntax, deep ecosystem, and Rails is piss easy to get started with. The only serious complaint about Rails is that there's too much "magic".

I got my application to a state I'm happy with, deployed it to GH pages, and then I was reminded CORS exists.
I forgot I had an extension enabled this whole time to add the relevant headers.
The application was supposed to process a video and then upload it to catbox, which doesn't work anymore obviously.
I could host it on a VPS and add an API route to upload the file server-side but the entire point of github pages for me is that I could just forget about it.
Using a CORS proxy is a no go. Don't want requests to go through someone else's computer.
So I guess I'm just gonna have to remove that functionality. This is why we can't have nice things.

Should you use underscores or hyphens for query parameters? Or capital letters?

For example:
/start?cases_table_page=2

or

/start?cases-table-page=2

or

/start?casesTablePage=2

What's best practice?

But how can I make a webapp that does not require js while at the same time having a rest backend usable by other services? Is there a standard solution for this problem?

I'm trying to make an xr web application using globe.gl for uni but i'm running into a ton of problems that i can't fix no matter how hard i try. The main problem is that when i start the xr session (using the xr button, not pictured) the headset is stuck inside the globe. I searched online for how to move the default starting position and tried using the xrsession and xrreferencespace but nothing seems to work, i can't "attach" a session or referencespace to the xrmanager due to some bullshit happening globe.gl's code. Does anybody have any experience with three.js and webxr stuff?

What idiot added this, even though it's already in the link right above?
Remove it in the next OP please.

I've made a REST api for a n-body grav sim in TS, how the hell do I connect a frontend to it? What do I use? I don't want to touch react. I'm out of my depth as a C dev, there are too many webdev things I don't understand!

>>106377091
I briefly tried Three.js recently. It's pretty cool. I'd like to try it more because I have an idea that would use it. I don't think I can justify spending time on it right now though.

>>106367744
Because it makes people use code they don't understand. If you let AI produce code that you go through line by line every time before accepting, and understand everything to a point you could explain it to someone else there is no problem. But someone that heavily relies on vibe coding usually also happens to be heavily lazy, so they don't bother to deploy code they can't figure out. But you should always be able to answer the questions "Why", "What if", "What are the alternatives" and "Why use this over the alternatives" for every statement.

>>106369930
I wouldn't say that but you're better off learning Go. It's easier and more performant.

>>106377333
It's a great resource. Never worse to link it twice. Remember to make the next general if you want it removed.

I think underscores are the most common but I prefer camelCase (second most common). I don't really see hyphens being used for this.

>>106381453
I heard that bots are a big issue on WPlace, and i didn't had a better idea to avoid that than to use a google's id to generate the initial account. I didn't add other methods since from experience every other email provider is easy to make duplicates, and hence bots. I also didn't want to deal with IP matching and so on, since again the only data i want to register and administer was the google subject, which in theory is not too sensitive

>>106380017
Web apps are based because so many devices these days have modern browsers. You write one web app and it will run in a browser on an iPhone, Android phone, Windows PC, Mac, Linux PC, iPad, etc.

If you wanted to target all those platforms with a native app then I guess you could use React Native or Tauri or something like that. But those use web technologies anyway, and also if you want to distribute a native app for iPhones and iPads, you need to pay Apple $99 a year to list your app in the App Store. Whereas a web app can just be put on the internet for much less money, and iPhone users (or other device users) can install it from there.

Bump

>>106379737
This is honestly how I feel about web dev. Maybe I'm just deficient in creativity, but there doesn't seem to be much left to do. Web dev is a solved problem.

>>106378280
Interesting question even if its a lazy question. I'd say, just outright I want to think that frontend engineers are more in demand than backend engineers because the client app is what the customers usually see. More people need a pretty looking interface for a simple CRUDshit backend than a complex CRUDshit backend where frontend doesn't matter.

I started out in a data science type jeet role and I realized quickly that the ones who deliver value quickly to a company are full stack devs, who know how to deal with the backend business logic and database horseshit while also spitting out pretty javascript interfaces that work with backend endpoints

>>106366201
Is this the best stack today?

Svelte without SvelteKit allows you to only create SPAs. But with SvelteKit, you can use SSG, SSR, routing etc. But you can still use your own backend, don't have to use node.js.

>>106366201
If a small business asked you to create a website for them with functionality like appointment-booking, making content adjustments etc., how would you do it? Wordpress? Headless cms with frontend framework? How would you deploy it? And how would you avoid the hassle of them annoying you when something goes wrong or they can't fix it on their own?

>HTML5
Yes. Remember to use semantic HTML instead of <div> for everything.

>UnoCSS
No, vanilla CSS is good enough. Always avoid unneeded complexity. Remember to put critical CSS inside of <style> tags.

>HTMX
No, too bloated and complicated. Use fixi.js instead.

>Hyperscript
No, vanilla JS is good enough. Always avoid unneeded complexity.

>Go Backend
Yes. Go is performant and simple. It's by far the best option for web dev.

You could also add SQLite to the list. It's going to be the best option in 99% of all cases. Unless you have a lot of writes; you should go with Postgres if that's the case.

When scanning the manga off the file system I calculate an average colour of the thumbnail by resizing to 1px and dump it in the db. It looks pretty good for those kinda covers, but it shows up as just beige for some ones. Maybe there's a better way to get the "dominant" colour of an image..

>>Current weight: ~4kb for the reader page

>>106390718
There's a scanning script that loops over the file system, processes thumbnails, etc. and records it all in the database as it goes. At some point it'll be on a periodic schedule.

>>106390791
I think it'd make sense to have that run only on new item insert

Yeah fair point. I guess once there's the ability to upload through the client. Maybe it needs to put some watchers on the directory or check modified timestamps or something.

counting the colors and dropping the least used ones then averaging might work
or maybe just blurring before average might also work idk
