Introduction to Full Stack Web Development

Full Stack Web Development refers to full stack web development—the term that unites Front End and Back End technologies. It is the origination of web applications from ground zero, starting from design to development. Learning Full Stack in 2024 can open the doors to numerous opportunities in the industry.

Full Stack Web Development

Full Stack Developers: On the back and front end of software development lies the core demand. The dual value makes them a valuable asset to any development team. This also makes it easier to troubleshoot and ideate with a developer since the developer can plan according to both ends.

Essential Skills for Full Stack Developers

A full-stack developer should have a view of the frontend and backend technologies with industry knowledge.

Some of the Front-end Technologies include:

HTML/CSS: Building blocks of web development that structure and style a document.

JavaScript: Makes the web page dynamic and interactive.

Frameworks: Use React, Angular, or Vue.js to massively build your UI.

Some of the back-end technologies include:

Server-Side Languages: Python, Node.js, Ruby, and PHP.

Databases: SQL and NoSQL databases to manage data.

APIs: Capable of using RESTful and GraphQL APIs to communicate with many parts of the web application.

How you can become a full-stack developer in 2024

Start with the basics The basics of web development are HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Make sure you have a grip on them first.

Learn front-end frameworks After understanding the basics, move on to front-end frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js. These tools help speed up the development process and enhance your capability to create complex user interfaces.

Learn a Back-End Language Choose any server-side language, such as Python, Node.js, or Ruby. Learn how to setup servers, manage databases, and create APIs. Building small projects can solidify your understanding.

Know About Databases Learn SQL and NoSQL databases with examples of actual databases, like MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, respectively. Understanding how to store, retrieve, and manage data is very important when talking about full stack development.

Get Hands-On with Full Stack Projects Put your heads into full-fledged projects by building real small web applications. Hands-on learning from these projects will be very valuable. Start with straightforward projects and then gradually move into much more challenging projects.

Keep Updated with the Trends Web development is dynamic and observably so. To do this, read industry blogs, contribute to forums, and be part of online communities. Keeping abreast of changes to these trends will help you stay ahead of the game.

Tools and Resources to Learn

Online Courses There are online-based platforms like Coursera, Udemy, and freeCodeCamp that provide excellent courses on full stack web development.

learning to code so i can take over the world

[alycesutherland]

First Steps:

So I want to learn how to get access to the spotify api and my data first in my terminal. So I want to:

Get my top albums in terminal

Get my top artists in terminal

Get my top songs in terminal

If I figure it out really quick:

Add that json data into an xbar project on my Macbook

If that is easy then I'll add more stuff for when you click on xbar

[teenagefeeling]

ok tangentially related: everyone saying "i never look up the authors of the books i read" is wilddddd to me. seriously? you just randomly pick up books and absorb whatever is between the pages with 0 context and do no further investigation? you don't care what nationality or gender or age an author is????? do you also not care when or where a book was published like how far does this go

it's not even hard to find, like flip to the back for an author bio and the copyright page for a whole bunch of other useful info..... do people not even look at the copyright page???!?

Tinkering with my personal website again

Above screenie is zoomed out to capture everything. Anyone wanna guess which blinkies I made? Also, the Twitter blinkie just takes you to my BSky lol (on purpose).

Several of the images were put together by me! I can teach pretty much anything in tech, this is just the stuff that I thought of.

I made the floppy-disk icons myself, with some help from wifey on getting the text to render as part of the SVGs!

Days 119 to 127 of coding everyday for a year now using Blazor

I have been working on small things here and there as well as doing things at my job but I finally decided to spend my time sharpening my claws with Blazor. I also decided to make a portfolio site like my husband has, but better 🤣. It doesn't show it but I have tool tips on each of these skills. I'll be adding a contact page soon and a few things that will show off my skills with code on the site!

As some of you might’ve seen: I’m no longer posting art on Twitter, so Tumblr is now the only social media I’ll be consistently posting art to. However: I’ll also be posting it to my website and possibly other social media platforms in the future.

I also post monthly sketch pages to my Patreon (April’s is on this post) with early access for Patrons, and I’m hoping to add more things to it soon!

Thanks everyone for your support (your tags mean a lot to me!) and I’ve put more of my thoughts in the tags.

Svelte Basics: First Component

I'm going through the Svelte tutorial since it's very comprehensive and up-to-date.

I'm going on a bit of a tangent before I start this post, but I'm straying away from YouTube videos and Udemy courses when learning new programming languages and frameworks. YouTube videos are too fragmented to get good information from. Courses (and YouTube videos) are usually not up-to-date, rendering parts of them useless. Not to mention that you have to pay for free information that's packaged in a course, which is kind of scummy.

Anyway, I've gotten quite a bit further than just the introduction section of Svelte basics, but I don't want to overload myself (or readers) with information.

My First Svelte Component:

This section was relatively straightforward. There wasn't much new information, but I was hooked because of its simplicity. I personally love the idea of having the script tags be a place to define variables and attributes:

<script> let var = "a variable!" </script>

<p>I'm {var}</p>

The example above shows how dynamic attributes are used. I can basically define any variable (and states, but that'll be for the next post) between the script tags that can be used in HTML.

This may seem mundane to programmers experienced in Svelte, but I think it gives really good insight into the philosophy behind Svelte. It's clear that they wanted to keep the language simple and easy to use, and I appreciate that.

As I mentioned in my introductory post, I have a background in React, which has a reputation for being convoluted. Well, maybe that's just my perception, but how Svelte is written is a breath of fresh air!

I look forward to making more posts about what I learn and my attempts at understanding it.

Until next time!

Welcome back, coding enthusiasts! Today we'll talk about Git & Github , the must-know duo for any modern developer. Whether you're just starting out or need a refresher, this guide will walk you through everything from setup to intermediate-level use. Let’s jump in!

What is Git?

Git is a version control system. It helps you as a developer:

Track changes in your codebase, so if anything breaks, you can go back to a previous version. (Trust me, this happens more often than you’d think!)

Collaborate with others : whether you're working on a team project or contributing to an open-source repo, Git helps manage multiple versions of a project.

In short, Git allows you to work smarter, not harder. Developers who aren't familiar with the basics of Git? Let’s just say they’re missing a key tool in their toolkit.

What is Github ?

GitHub is a web-based platform that uses Git for version control and collaboration. It provides an interface to manage your repositories, track bugs, request new features, and much more. Think of it as a place where your Git repositories live, and where real teamwork happens. You can collaborate, share your code, and contribute to other projects, all while keeping everything well-organized.

Git & Github : not the same thing !

Git is the tool you use to create repositories and manage code on your local machine while GitHub is the platform where you host those repositories and collaborate with others. You can also host Git repositories on other platforms like GitLab and BitBucket, but GitHub is the most popular.

Installing Git (Windows, Linux, and macOS Users)

You can go ahead and download Git for your platform from (git-scm.com)

Using Git

You can use Git either through the command line (Terminal) or through a GUI. However, as a developer, it’s highly recommended to learn the terminal approach. Why? Because it’s more efficient, and understanding the commands will give you a better grasp of how Git works under the hood.

GitWorkflow

Git operates in several key areas:

Working directory (on your local machine)

Staging area (where changes are prepared to be committed)

Local repository (stored in the hidden .git directory in your project)

Remote repository (the version of the project stored on GitHub or other hosting platforms)

Let’s look at the basic commands that move code between these areas:

git init: Initializes a Git repository in your project directory, creating the .git folder.

git add: Adds your files to the staging area, where they’re prepared for committing.

git commit: Commits your staged files to your local repository.

git log: Shows the history of commits.

git push: Pushes your changes to the remote repository (like GitHub).

git pull: Pulls changes from the remote repository into your working directory.

git clone: Clones a remote repository to your local machine, maintaining the connection to the remote repo.

Branching and merging

When working in a team, it’s important to never mess up the main branch (often called master or main). This is the core of your project, and it's essential to keep it stable.

To do this, we branch out for new features or bug fixes. This way, you can make changes without affecting the main project until you’re ready to merge. Only merge your work back into the main branch once you're confident that it’s ready to go.

Getting Started: From Installation to Intermediate

Now, let’s go step-by-step through the process of using Git and GitHub from installation to pushing your first project.

Configuring Git

After installing Git, you’ll need to tell Git your name and email. This helps Git keep track of who made each change. To do this, run:

Master vs. Main Branch

By default, Git used to name the default branch master, but GitHub switched it to main for inclusivity reasons. To avoid confusion, check your default branch:

Pushing Changes to GitHub

Let’s go through an example of pushing your changes to GitHub.

First, initialize Git in your project directory:

Then to get the ‘untracked files’ , the files that we haven’t added yet to our staging area , we run the command

Now that you’ve guessed it we’re gonna run the git add command , you can add your files individually by running git add name or all at once like I did here

And finally it's time to commit our file to the local repository

Now, create a new repository on GitHub (it’s easy , just follow these instructions along with me)

Assuming you already created your github account you’ll go to this link and change username by your actual username : https://github.com/username?tab=repositories , then follow these instructions :

You can add a name and choose wether you repo can be public or private for now and forget about everything else for now.

Once your repository created on github , you’ll get this :

As you might’ve noticed, we’ve already run all these commands , all what’s left for us to do is to push our files from our local repository to our remote repository , so let’s go ahead and do that

And just like this we have successfully pushed our files to the remote repository

Here, you can see the default branch main, the total number of branches, your latest commit message along with how long ago it was made, and the number of commits you've made on that branch.

Now what is a Readme file ?

A README file is a markdown file where you can add any relevant information about your code or the specific functionality in a particular branch—since each branch can have its own README.

It also serves as a guide for anyone who clones your repository, showing them exactly how to use it.

You can add a README from this button:

Or, you can create it using a command and push it manually:

But for the sake of demonstrating how to pull content from a remote repository, we’re going with the first option:

Once that’s done, it gets added to the repository just like any other file—with a commit message and timestamp.

However, the README file isn’t on my local machine yet, so I’ll run the git pull command:

Now everything is up to date. And this is just the tiniest example of how you can pull content from your remote repository.

What is .gitignore file ?

Sometimes, you don’t want to push everything to GitHub—especially sensitive files like environment variables or API keys. These shouldn’t be shared publicly. In fact, GitHub might even send you a warning email if you do:

To avoid this, you should create a .gitignore file, like this:

Any file listed in .gitignore will not be pushed to GitHub. So you’re all set!

Cloning

When you want to copy a GitHub repository to your local machine (aka "clone" it), you have two main options:

Clone using HTTPS: This is the most straightforward method. You just copy the HTTPS link from GitHub and run:

It's simple, doesn’t require extra setup, and works well for most users. But each time you push or pull, GitHub may ask for your username and password (or personal access token if you've enabled 2FA).

But if you wanna clone using ssh , you’ll need to know a bit more about ssh keys , so let’s talk about that.

Clone using SSH (Secure Shell): This method uses SSH keys for authentication. Once set up, it’s more secure and doesn't prompt you for credentials every time. Here's how it works:

So what is an SSH key, actually?

Think of SSH keys as a digital handshake between your computer and GitHub.

Your computer generates a key pair:

A private key (stored safely on your machine)

A public key (shared with GitHub)

When you try to access GitHub via SSH, GitHub checks if the public key you've registered matches the private key on your machine.

If they match, you're in — no password prompts needed.

Steps to set up SSH with GitHub:

Generate your SSH key:

2. Start the SSH agent and add your key:

3. Copy your public key:

Then copy the output to your clipboard.

Add it to your GitHub account:

Go to GitHub → Settings → SSH and GPG keys

Click New SSH key

Paste your public key and save.

5. Now you'll be able to clone using SSH like this:

From now on, any interaction with GitHub over SSH will just work — no password typing, just smooth encrypted magic.

And there you have it ! Until next time — happy coding, and may your merges always be conflict-free! ✨👩‍💻👨‍💻

04&05.july23,wed ; internship

ughhh that PHP todo-list is driving me insaaaane! the people at my internship are really nice and helpful, tho my social anxiety is not really good at asking for help and i keep trying to do most of it myself. yesterday i did not get any further, there was no way for me to ever think of any type of succes. today, tho, i finally connected the mySQL database to my PHP index and i can actually add to dos, give them priorities, a date and check them off as "done":))

i am really proud of that and tomorrow i will try to insert a "delete" button to delete tasks, maybe i'll have some time and add some CSS to it to make it a bit prettier:) i'll see what i can doooo aghhh everytime i go home my brain is smoking tho it is really fun to try out new things and test things out!!

[sibyl-of-space]

now that i have tampermonkey ive spent the past like hour trying to figure out how to use it to update the dark mode palette to include the navy again because i hate that it's just black. i looked at tumblr's CSS and literally the dark mode palette takes the "navy" variable and just sets it to 0, 0, 0 AKA black. i can edit it in the inspector (which is how i know exactly what they did) but i haven't figured out tampermonkey syntax/functionality to the extent i know how to script it to do this. this is a reasonable rabbit hole to be going down 30 minutes after i am supposed to be in bed
