Back in the day the first thing I would do when seeing a flash intro was looking for the damn skip button so I could get to the site index page.

This works for a freelancer mindset, but if you are looking to get a job, which most of us are, you have to not only know all these frameworks and libraries, you also have to be cloud devops master now. The list of requirements to be a developer aren't what they were just a couple of years ago. If you can make a good living doing freelance, more power to you.

Great content ❤ Fully agree on the complexicty part but disagree on the flash intro same as its useless on netflix the paying customers (the person who owns and pays for the site) still wants them and page load transitions popup and drop downs panels ect ect ect. Flash was killed by the over complex desire for google searching and indexing .... Pretty sure we were doing fully animated interactive apps and games in the early 200s with simple xml that felt fully native and took a few days to build... a full 10 years latter to build the same app or game at that same level is months at best and needs html5, css3, and js just for the front end rendering 😊

Totally with you on this. Recently discovered the power of using just php (learning with Claude! plus did a like 10-year-old Udemy course on PHP). And yes Bootstrap plus a bit of JS ... boom! "Bob's your uncle", as we say in the UK. Stef's your uncle? So many cool things you can do with just that.

I've been asking myself whether to learn React first or Svelte first. I'm wondering if I'm being difficult for not learn React as that's where the jobs are, or if I should just go straight into Svelte and get better at the technology that I actually want to use because it will make things easier to maintain long term. Svelte makes the most sense if I'm trying to avoid overcomplicating things on the front end (using Go on the Backend). But many courses online including the Meta FrontEnd Developer professional certificate use React. So React feels like the thing I have to know just because it's the industry standard.

My question is, isn't it kind of important to see what these different technologies can do so one day you can decide the fastest way to make your project? If you never used Reactjs, for example, and Reactjs would make your project faster, then you'd be in the dark because you never used it. That's kind of where I'm at. I don't know what technologies will make my projects faster because I never used them or know exactly what they are for
@denissorn2 ай бұрын
has nothing to do with 'speed', or not necessarily. It's more about maintenablity, features, sometimes speed of developent. What's often ignored in videos like this is that building a Web API is often done, because it makes sense. E.g. you have OpenAI API you can use with Python, JS etc (Doesn matter the language, but in context of the frontent JS support is relevant.). Now, for a regular web site using something like React, Vue etc is overkill. However, if you're building an interactive application (So, it is more an application, and not a web site/page) where you want/need a lot of ineractivity, and no page refreshes, you'll anyway use JS (there's wasm nowadays, but JS is probably still the best option for most things/scenarios.) SPA (Single page applications) are often a good or better choice. You may already have an API or multiple APIs, so you already have your data and backend, now you're basically building a frontent. Why design an application from scratch like that, for one because you want APIs which can be consumed by various services, applications etc. Doesn't even have to be a web appication, or a mobile. It can be a console application, or a service (Anything that can speak HTTP). However, nowadays you have options eg JS metaframeworks like Next etc provide where you can mix various techniques and have multipage application/site, but part of it can behave like a single page application. This has pros and cons, and often a 'classic' PHP whatever site can be a better choice, especially if that's what you are familiar with. It all depends on what are you building, and what are the long term goals.
