here's a list of all the intermediate coding tutorials i've written so far!

git / github tutorial

npm (and node.js) tutorial (+ how to use the command line) (this one's a prerequisite for the following 2 tutorials)

webpack tutorial (a module builder for JavaScript and (S)CSS)

11ty (eleventy) tutorial (a super easy static site generator!)

if you have ideas/requests, feel free to contact me!

more beginner coding tutorials are coming VERY soon! meanwhile, check out my common questions and common mistakes pages!

Funding FujoCoded: Stretch Goals!

It’s time! With our first goal met (🎉 thank you!), let’s talk about stretch goals. We have quite a few planned, so we're going to go through them one by one and explain what they are and why we chose them!

Before we go down the list, here's something fun:

Sticker Unlock: At 45 backers, we also unlocked one more sticker!

The goal of our campaign is to cover business expenses most of all. The unlocked content is an extra token of gratitude for your support that also helps us meet our own targets! 

With that said, let's get to our stretch goals...

$4,000: "That's Why I Ship On Company Time" Ao3 Sticker

At $4,000 we'll unlock one more sticker design that you can add to your collection! 

Our first version of this "shipping" sticker features VSCode and a terminal, but there's more than one type of shipping... here's to the other one!

$5,000: "Using NPM with Javascript" Article

Next up, we have our first article. Our plan is to add an Articles section to @fujowebdev where we'll collect simple, free guides to help beginners get past the roadblocks we see them encounter!

This first one will cover the basics of NPM, a core element of modern JavaScript!

"How do I install this JavaScript library? How do I run this open source JavaScript project? How can I get started creating my blog using a tool like @astrodotbuild?" are some of the most common questions we get in our Fandom Coders server. 

Let's give *everyone* the answer!

$6,000: Offering Website Art Prints

Next up, we'll turn the excellent art on our website into prints! These will be (probably) 8x10-sized art prints that will look amazing without breaking the bank. Full specs soon!

...and speaking of the site, you have tried moving the windows, right?

$7,000: "Catching Up With Terminal" Article

Next, another common issue for beginner developers: how to start learning how to handle the Terminal.

This will require some research to determine the major roadblocks, which is how our project operates: active learning from those going through it all!

$8,000: "Crucial Confrontations" Article

And last (for now), something very dear to us: an article extracting some wisdom from the book "Crucial Confrontations": https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-Confrontations-Resolving-Promises-Expectations/dp/0071446524

This may seem like an unusual choice, but it highlights how our teaching goals go beyond programming to cover collaboration!

After years of working within our community, we repeatedly found that developing effective communication and confrontation skills helps our collaborators thrive. Unfortunately, the world doesn't teach us how to effectively (but kindly) hold each other accountable.

Some of our most involved collaborators have read this book and found the tools within it transformative. Given this experience, we deeply believe that making some of this wisdom easily accessible (without having to read the full book) will allow all of us to collaborate better!

If we can reach $8,000, this will enable us to test this hypothesis and learn how teaching soft skills beyond programming influences what we're able to achieve! It's a bold idea, but we're excited to see how it turns out in practice.

Help us make it there!

And that's all...for now!

If you want to hop on Twitch right now, you can join us as we put some extra polish on our shiny new FujoCoded website.

And remember, you can back our campaign here to help us achieve these goals and more:

Build Your Own npm Package!

Hiya! @kitkatcodes made a post a couple days ago essentially her making her own npm package and I thought it was super cool! I've been busy lately but I gave myself some time to read the tutorial she used and play around making my own!

Link to @kitkatcodes post >> LINK

The npm package

Here it is! Took me 3 hours to do this because I got the concept of how to make the package following the tutorial @kitkatcodes used (which is this: LINK) but then I got around playing around with the colours and appearance, as I do~! Then I finally finished and published it!

The main code

Have a go!

If you have Node.js installed, in the terminal, type:

1. npm i xiacodes-business-card 2. npx xiacodes

Then you should see the output shown above!

Well, that's all! I had fun making this and thanks again to @kitkatcodes for the initial post! It's super easy to do and fun! Here are some links:

The package to add colours to the output text: LINK

Have a nice day and happy coding! 💗💻

okay but seriously does Will Branner have an OnlyFans? asking for a friend

shoutout to jesus (@williamsewerratted) for inventing brookeschitz btw

[sammy0panda]

deno been real quiet

👀👀 i haven't tried this node.js/npm replacement called Bun yet, but on paper it seems neat :)

[stxalq]

is anything truly first-party? even the hardcore homelab folks still need a static ip and a reliable dns from a third-party

plus, these days, all critical js libraries start life hosted on third-party cdns. those daily/weekly metrics on their npm pages are download stats, not vibe checks

unless you're going to rebuild decades of web application infrastructure from scratch, apply all your security patches by hand, and rewrite every framework from zero, it's unavoidable, there's third-party cdns in your build and deployment pipelines. it's just a matter of who you trust, what risks you're willing to take, and what effort you're able to put in

I think the real reason most websites are janky as hell to use these days is because web developers have become so specialised that nobody really understands how anything works anymore. The other day I had to explain why hosting critical Javascript libraries on a third-party CDN is a bad idea to a "lead developer" who genuinely didn't know the difference between server-side versus client-side scripting.

Bureaucratie française : entre absurdité et nécessité

Ah, la France! Le pays de la baguette, du béret, et… d’une administration tellement tentaculaire qu’on se demande si elle n’a pas son propre fuseau horaire. Accrochez-vous, il y a des remous ! C’est un peu long mais ça vaut le coup pour essayer de comprendre. Parmi les nombreuses strates de notre chère bureaucratie, les agences d’état tiennent une place de choix. Imaginez un peu… on parle de…

Node.js: De Backend Estrella a Puerta Trasera del Infierno

En un giro sombrío y altamente sofisticado, actores maliciosos han comenzado a explotar el ecosistema de Node.js para propagar malware de extracción de archivos, comprometiendo servidores, equipos de desarrollo y entornos CI/CD en una campaña quirúrgicamente precisa. Este ataque no solo desafía los esquemas de seguridad tradicionales, sino que pone en jaque la confianza en los paquetes NPM – uno…

National Poetry Month is ongoing. I somehow missed Poem In Your Pocket Day, which had been on April 10, 2025. Last week, I finished reading "And Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou. I'll see what other poetry I may read next. -- ssw15

NPM 2025 (Full Moon and Little Frieda)

It was NPM 2014 when I first shared Ted’s poem about his daughter. In that post the husband and I had another enjoyable conversation about the tragedies that surrounded the man. You should give it a read. But now I present to you…. Full Moon and Little Frieda By Ted Hughes A cool small evening shrunk to a dog bark and the clank of a bucket –And you listening.A spider’s web, tense for the…

What is NPM?

NPM (Node Package Manager) is a tool used to manage JavaScript packages and dependencies in Node.js projects. It allows developers to easily install, update, and share libraries and tools for building applications. NPM simplifies the process of managing code and makes it easier to collaborate on projects by providing access to a vast ecosystem of packages. It's an essential part of modern JavaScript development.
